western acf makes me =)

really appreciating the fellowship days from western acf.

so today is viv's bday (yes... the one who looks like a frosh is now 22. hah!) and a bunch of western ppl went out with her for dinner. then as usual, asians back in toronto, hit up bbt afterwards i joined up with them then. and its only in settings like these, with a bunch like them, that you can go from a deep spiritual conversation which "punches you in the face" as chris describes it, to a 'laugh-til-your-stomach-hurts-like-you-just-did-an-abs-workout' laughing session. a time when you can just completely forget all else thats happening around you, enjoy and appreciate it there and then, and just have a good time of fellowship with ppl who you love and care about. 

it ranged from ppl who've already graduated, to the current froshes-for-not-much-longer. theres just something about us which works so well and we click as a group. and that is fellowship. true fellowship.

and it shows whenever western ppl see each other. like in softball (yes of course, most of us play in ccsa. haha..). but whenever western ppl see each other, even if we arent THAT close while at western, we just seem so much closer than others we know from elsewhere. theres just that connection, about spending 8 months of the year in london and attending western ACF. 

just a bit sad that there isnt summer acf this year, and that the weekly (or even more often) acf gatherings wont happen til sept gets here. then again, this is also my final year. =( 

but i will enjoy it while it lasts. and whose to say it has to end when im done with western? there'll always be these lil western gatherings. ppl say the friends you make in univ are the ones that will last. (well, compared to high school anyways.) 

time flies, but im sure this final year at western will be a good one. =)

PS. we're gunna go out with a BANG at banquet! haha...

real friends vs douchebags who claim to be your friend

y'know the episode of himym, where ted 'couldnt get angry' at stella for leaving him at the altar? but in the end, he got really fueled up, had the most pwnage thing to say to her, and was feeling like "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" but in the very end, didnt say all that, and just let it go?

yeah.. thats how im feeling. haha..

it took a real friend to let me know and help me realize that another 'friend' was actually just a big douchebag all along. at first, i was like "meh. im okay. im not mad." and was willing to just let it go, and just move on with life. but after my friend helped me realized just how epically big of a douchebag that person is, i was pretty pissed. like if i actually saw that person then and there, who knows what would've started coming outta my mouth. haha.. but i didnt. no rash actions were made. no angry phone calls or email.. nothing.

so what am i gunna do from now on? probably nothing. literally. refuse communication with that db. let that person go on with their life, and i will go on with mine. move on, really.

if anything, appreciate the friends i have now, letting me know and realize just how big of a db the other person was and still is. and how my life is at a much awesome-er place! :D

thats what friends are for.

its always good to talk things out. and they pretty much decided things for me. haha.. actually... they didnt even need to hear what i had to say. they already made the decision, and wouldnt be persuaded otherwise. and its true. thanks to you awesome people for listening, or just not listening and telling me immediately whats the right decision. haha...

softball. 

S.G. UGH. ppl need to start playing this game properly, and reduce the amount of errors. ERRORS. so many! dropping fly balls right at you, lack of backing up, grounders THRU the legs... oh and we're not hitting either. even if our defense is gross, it wouldnt be as bad if we can hit the ball.! but nope.. we're not. im at fault on that part too. but im working on it. 

SG has a looooooong way to go.

oh and this goes for both ccsa (3-1) and sssl (5-4).
