time machine anyone?

haha... so a recent discussion of me wanting a biological older sibling (preferably brother) led to this hilarious quote of the term. so picture this... Hiram, Justine, and me sitting at einsteins.

Justine: Pris wants a biological older brother
Hiram: oh.
*silence*
*thinks for a while*
Hiram: HUH? isn't that.. wait... isnt that not possible?
Justine & Pris: LOL!! (well, we didn't say lawl, we actually laughed. =P)

took him a while to realize its not possible. haha... then we realized if someone DID build a time machine, no one wants to be the one to tell my parents that =P

anyways, but yeah. i definitely would like a time machine. not to speed up or go back in time, but just to slow time down. year 2 term 1 is nearly over! frig! parade season begins 2MRW!! (AWWW YEAHHHH!!) i have 7 quizzes/papers/assignments and 4 finals left. its pretty crazy. its already started snowing in london. too fast! just a bit more than 2.5yrs of univ left. and guess what? i still dont know what im gunna graduate with. a 3 year major? or a 3 year double minor? but done in the time span of 4 years? hahha... yeah. im not an academic person. i realized i was definitely more suited for college and i cheated my way into univ with my high school music marks. hence why im screwing up pretty badly in terms of marks i guess. but you know what? im still glad i came to western. rez experience (not that it was good, but at least i can say i got the experience), moving out, ACF, WMB, the ppl, etc. and many other things that i would be missing out on if i choose ryerson per say =P. and many recent convos and discussions with brothers and sisters about academics has really changed my perspective. like.. many ppl with good academics are learning to face the fact that God hasnt called them to the certain career they were aiming for and is capable of acheiving it. then there are others who havent done as well but still (barely) managing to finish the academics, but as clueless as ever about their careers. then leaving the rest up to God cus honestly, when have we ever known whats 'best' for us? we dont. we never did. as babies, our parents did everything they THOUGHT was best for us. and when get older and make our own decisions, we usually try to base them on what WE THINK is best for us. but lets face it. when do when have any idea? we can never see the big picture. thats why we need to be just doing what we can now and leaving the rest up to God. He already has our future planned out. if something happens (good or bad), then try to learn what God has to say to you thru it. im currently academically constipated (as in im not in any program nor do i know what i can do) but im still learning loads thru non academics at western. acf is going thru changes, living at summit is definitely a whole category of its own, im enjoying wMB more than ever, and cant forget the amazing bunch of high school friends im still in touch with! oh yeah, and scac is going thru some changes too! academics definitely isnt top priority in my life. well, it never was. haha.. =P guess im made out to be one of those ppl who never care too much about academics, whether im doing good or bad. balance. im assuming most ppl will have a good chunk of their awake day (the portion of the day when you're sleeping) either studying or working (student or career). i guess the percentage of my studying bit is rather low. it always has been. haha... guess what im trying to say is, im learning to embrace what i DO have in my life right now. and to not worry so much. check out Matthew 6:25-34. such a common passage yet i still need constant reminders about it.

i am honestly so thankful for my bunch of high school friends. the 7 of us. whenever we have any problems or celebrations, we just type it up and send it off to each of us. sharing! and we try to meet up when we can. but with 7 of us, in 3 different cities, and at 4 different universities, its pretty hard. so yay for technology! and even msn prayers! haha... i find it better sometimes. cus you get to read what other ppl are praying. its typed out. its pretty awesome i must say =) crazy support for each other? i think so. GIGATT!

another thing... i think there are 5 gr12s from SCAC who're currently picking Western as their first choice for next year!! AWW YEAHHHH! im so excited! haha... its been awesome that they're asking about western, and just more communication between me and them. s'like we fall out after softball/summer, but this has kept the conversations going.

see... theres so much good going on. i shouldnt focus on the uncertainties of my academics which only makes up a small portion of my life right now. anyways. enough rambling on and on about the same thing. (did i go in circles? or were the topics just circling in my brain? or both? haha...). i need to shower and sleep. cus of PARADE 2MRW!!!! =D so excited! altho i might die from tiredness of 3hrs of parading and carrying a bass drum. arghhh... WEAKKKK me. haha... =P
