All Quiet on the Blog Front
So it's been a month since the last post. Time to stir things up a bit.
I miss you guys...not Pat and Audrey, though. ;)

me and vince have been moving in these past few days :P it's been so tiring! but today i think we pretty much finished up everything ... all the furniture is built and everything has been put in its place. kinda.
we miss you guys a lot!
here's a funny story from today.
so we drive past our neighbor, who is watering his lawn ... and vince says something to the effect of ... "look at that guy, washing his grass..."
if i had a quote board, i would put that sucka up. :)

It's time.
The day we'd all been waiting for, yet fretting about, is here. We're graduating.
I am going to miss the FiCS Class of 2004.
*****
On an entirely different note, did you know that the MEs and PDs in our class are all Chinese? And, with the exception of Vince, all the Chinese people in our class are MEs and PDs. And the Class of 2003 MEs were/are Korean. Okay, that was terribly segregationist and random. Sorry, I like to find patterns.
*****
And now let me reiterate: I am going to miss you guys.
Wherever you are sent, I look forward to the day we see each other again and share in the goodness of our Lord.
How good and pleasant it is
when brothers live together in unity!
It is like precious oil poured on the head,
running down on the beard,
running down on Aaron's beard,
down upon the collar of his robes.
It is as if the dew of Hermon
were falling on Mount Zion.
For there the LORD bestows his blessing,
even life forevermore.
- Psalm 133

SAN Anticipation
I'm so excited for tonight. I can't wait to see what the underclassmen have been up to all this time, can't wait to read the testimony journal, and can't wait to share some love in return. I'm also delirious with sleep deprivation, but it's been worth it.
Seniors, I'm going to miss you guys more than I ever thought.

check it check it!!
audrey yang SERIOUSLY has post-worthy advice!
so ... i am convinced that every dorm has a way to be broken into.
these are the ones i know/have used recently.
kimball -- the study room windows. lift 'em up, step on in.
naranja -- the doors closest to lag dining, to the right (a screen door i think) are always unlocked...
ujamaa -- the doors to the kitchenette i think, (the room to the left of the lounge) are usually unlocked..
roble the impenetrable -- has big windows on either side of the central door. seldom locked. pull towards you, push the screens inwards, and you're home free. no more waiting for the chance passerby...
hm...what else? haha, cedro has windows too.
i dunno about frosoco though...frosoco's pretty lively. people are easy to scream at if you want in. and since all the sterling quad houses are connected, once you gain entry to one, you're in.
really.
i'm surprised there isn't MORE theft than there is...

I remember when we played ghetto taboo (handwritten words on torn pieces of paper) during our frosh lock-in in the basement of St. Emydius, the old KCPC site. The same basement where we made sandwiches before service instead of after. The bread was just as soft and fluffy as it is today. Pastor Ryan seemed kinda intimidating back then.
I remember when we played Taboo (the real thing) during our senior trip at Yosemite. Something about that game. The trip was unforgettable. I was reminded that God's creation is pretty crazy. Especially squirrels and waterfalls.
One quart cartons of Dairy Ease (they used to sell Lactaid) can be purchased for 4.00 points at Wilbur Dining.

I just read Chinsan's email to the FiCS seniors, as we prepare to head off to Yosemite this weekend for the senior retreat. Gosh, I got seriously teary-eyed reading it...
"... Well, it's been a long way since that frosh lock-in of 2000. And we each have traveled various roads. But now, here we are together - with far too many bleary-eyed sunrises between us (tonight will probably not be an exception ;). Praise the Lord also that, despite the ever-nearing moment of graduation, it's never too late to form new memories of being in the presence of the Lord with brothers and sisters. Needless to say, I'm excited for you all, your trip, and what the Lord has in store.
May God bless you all tremendously, esp. during your time spent together this weekend among the mountains, mountains that testify with all of creation to the glory and majesty of our God. [...] And don't miss what will be right beside you when you're out there - the Lord and good friends in Christ. Wherever you may trek this weekend, may you be overwhelmed with reminders of God's goodness, mercy, and grace."
Mmm, "good friends in Christ." I look forward to that this weekend. I just wish our old frosh liaison could come with us...
