*smiles* 5 wonderful years with an angel. God truly blessed me with someone so unique and different, funny, smart, determined, romantic, loving, funny, down to earth, and so much more... I had the most amazing, undescribable weekend and I couldn't have spent it any other way...as long as I spend it with my baby, it was perfect =) Every time I look @ him, i just stop everything I do, look @ him and thank and praise God for bringing him into my life, thank God for living through us by the gift of love, thanking God for always being in the center of our relationship. Our love is beautiful, God is beautiful, and this relationship has shown me how much more alive God is in our world if we just open our eyes... |

| | third day & caedmon's call ~ God of Wonders | ] |
so as i was in the library, killing time till chris & sam finished class so we could go home, i was blessed to be in a place that shows the work of God. It was between two young guys, one of the guys was physically handicap, he couldn't eat, talk, or control his body movements so he was restricted to a wheelchair. But he was happy, he smiled, laugh, and made noises to communicate with his friend. His friend communicated back, talked to him in no way different than if his friend wasn't physically handicap, fed him and cleaned up after he was finished eating. He accepted him as a human being, as a son of God, while a few past by w/puzzled looks on their faces. But this is our challenge, our time to show what our purpose in life is, and this friend showed it. So many of us stray away from God, growing farther away from Him instead of developing a deep and closer relationship with Him. We hurt God in our every day actions that some might not even realized, for example, dirty looks. But for what? Why give dirty looks, why think hurtful thoughts, why say rude comments? What's their purpose? what's achieved? NOTHING. Each time, those actions illustrate the selfishness that comes over us, yet we expect from others not to be selfish.
What this guy did today just shows how obvious God is in our everyday lives, how alive He is, and how often people turn Him away. I finally realized how alive God really is a few years back and how literally everything that surrounds us, GOD iS PRESENT. People, animals, trees, nature, bugs, weather, EVERYTHING and since that day four years ago, I see it. I see God at work. Everyday. And the reason I live is for God.
HE IS MY STRENGTH & MY DELIVERER,
I'LL STAND FIRM |

hmmmm....im so sleep deprived! i really dont know how i was did it last year.......be able to stay up till 3-4am in the morning and still be able to make it to an 8:30 class the next morning!! i can't even stay past 2am without feeling extremely drained, heavy, and tired in the morning =( i think it's a matter of getting used to it, and now it looks like i might start getting used to it since the past few days i've been staying up till 3am =( struggling but succeeding....
had one of my two midterms today....was pretty challenging, but i did my best and it's in God's Hands...speaking of, i had such a good conversation with kuya oliver last night =) so inspiring and touching....
k, i'm slacking now...........i have another midterm tomorrow and a lab due =| |

i have to admit that i am on ODD monkey! =P i'm a nerd (haha) who's loud, hyper @ times, weird, and really a kid @ heart (and in action! lol)...but within my heart, i feel so content with my surroundings, school, work, family, friends, MY life....and i dont show it...i stress, i panick, i vent, but deep down at the end of the day, i'm happy.... each day that passes, i learn so much about life, observe so many things that would otherwise not be noticed and smile... everything is a gift from God, a blessing, that what i feel every night when i have just been blessed with another day with the gift of life...
i believe that there are many people today who have lost sight of the true meaning of life. we're so caught up in this western culture that we lose the focus of life. i was one those people who lost focus, who forgot my purpose, until a few years ago when i realized that i was fooling and hurting myself, others around me (even if they don't realize), and most of all, God. Reality kicked in a few years back and recalling those moments and lessons that i learned back then, i'm am extremely happy that i was able to realize where i stood in life back then...because if i didn't realize and change my look on life, i'm scared to think of where and who i would be today...
i must admit, there are times that i still lose focus of the purpose of my life, but that's the many challenges God gives me and because of that, i'm content with the challenges present in my life, because it's all God's purpose and as long as I remember that it's only thru Him where i can find the strength, wisdom, and love to overcome any obstacle in my journey of life, then I know i'll be fulfilling every desire he has for me. |

ahhhh.....since school started, i've been pretty proud of myself coz overall i've been staying focused and productive, even though there are some days when i'm hard on myself and think i wasn't so productive. BuTTTT this week, *sigh!* i feel like i'm getting so distracted and losing my focus!! =D C'MON JENN! annnnd out of all weeks, i shouldn't be feeling like this coz the midterms are starting!! i have two next week along with one assignment and one lab report :S and as much as i say that i'm gonna be in study mode this weekend, i mostly wont be ...harhar..
so yesterday i was super tired....during the three hours break i have, instead of being productive and studying, i actually FELL asleep!! the first sign of me losing focus! :*( in a small cubicle in the library, i put my head down and dozed off, every few minutes looking up just to make sure i didn't have a mark on my face! hehehe....
after my last class, went home and did nothinggggggg.... school work wise =P ...watched a little of napolean dynamite (HAHAHAHA!), chilled with the guys & girls, reminsced about Cuba, cooked food, tried convincing someone to go out with me to the Bomber (no success) and then attempted to read but then ended wanting to clean, so i mopped our place AND the guys place! then went to sobeys and after sobeys i promised myself to start working! finally!? nope, because msn kept me distracted!
But in the end, it's my fault for getting distracted! hehehehee...
so today, i'm gonna try super HARD! i learned my lesson (i think!) and after my 3 hour lab and prayer meeting, i'm gonna hit the books and avoid distractions as much as possible!
oh, and i miss my monkey! he's sooo sweet and likes to make me laugh! har har har! |

well, i've gotten 3 out of my 7 exams out of the way....it actually feels good and i felt good after the exams, with the exception of my first exam :| ...praying that i did at least average, because i dont want to set my expectations high, when i know that i didn't do so well =S
next week will yet be another demanding, stressful, week..... four finals in one week is just killing me softly, but i'm hoping to stay motivated, focused, and keeping my faith in God.... He's so amazing and praying, talking, and keeping my faith alive has helped me through this term... especially when things didn't work out the way I wanted to, things worked out for Him, and that's all that matters....
For all who's in exam mode, i wish you success =) |

so you know school's is literally flying quick time when midterms are happening..once midterms start before you know it, it's already december, christmas fastly approaching and finals coming out of our assses.....i have two midterms this coming week...last week i felt pretty okay about it, but now the weekend came and i'm slowly starting to get scared :( especially for my elective...so instead of taking a easy course (if such actually exists!) i took microeconomics as my elective...not because i'm forced to, but because i have no business background at all and although i dont have any business background, i want to know more about business and the economy and everything related to it...so i took it...a challenge, an interest...but the only downfall is that i have no business background at all! hehehe...so it's taking me a while to understand the economy and the terms that go along with it..and now when i'm starting to get a feel for it, i have a midterm!!! ahhh!! that's what freaks me out.... im just constantly telling myself that there's a reason why i wanted to learn more about it and that drive to be interested will help me ... maybe not as obvious as i want it, or maybe just as i want it... =)
to all with midterms and the endless midterms ..... ENJOY! literally =) |

I got my hair fixed today, hehehe...i say fixed coz my highlights were sooo grown out! I went back to my natural black colour and instead got some highlights underneath...with school coming up, i must keep my hair on low maintanence as possible yet still looking presentable =) I kept my hair still a bit long since i dont mind is long...
So yesterday I bought my bed =) yaaay! and $20 worth of school supplies, which should last me for the year =) I also went back to waterloo today to try to get some books. For the first time i was able to save some money at the Used Bookstore! haha... I want to go back to school already...I feel like studying again, and chilling till the wee hours in the morning after studying.. haha..as much as those days were fun, i dunno if i can even go through nights w/o sleeping! I'm going to be a bit more of a boring student this year because i want to do even better this year and hopefully minor in econ if i like it..aaand find a part-time job between that... but until mid-september, i'm going to chill and party as much as i can...
can't wait to move in =) |
