the four right chords can make me cry

i could not ask for more.
ok, a driving license would be nice though.

I love the feeling of being surrounded by friends. I remember this lecture where neisha was behind me, josh was on my right and jinyin was on my left. Just a simple thing, but not at all trivial.

I was really touched by the reading room gang. I saw them in school after I'd failed my driving test, and they were so absolutely sweet about it. I wouldn't have gotten over it so quickly otherwise. Thanks pema, berwine and huihui. I don't know what i did to deserve friends like that.

yeah timo, i think you're right. i feel different.

Lunch with pema on wednesday was really great, I'm so exceedingly euphoric that we'll be meeting every week now. Its so good to be in the company of someone who's company is so good, and thinks you're not half bad yourself.

This reminds me of a reading I have:
"The following sentence means exactly what it says: This sentence contains only three rong words. Now that cannot be right, can it? After all there is only one wrong word - the word "rong". In order to read correctly this sentence would have to be altered to: This sentence contains one rong word. But the original sentence did actually contain three wrong words: "Three" should have been "one", "rong" should have been "wrong", and "words" should have been "word." So the sentence was true after all, wasn't it? And yet as soon as we say that, it is wrong again. Because then again there is only one wrong word. in other words, when the sentence is true it is false, and when it is false it is true."

whoa nelly. mind-boggling stuff.

today wasn't a good day for first impressions on tutors though. got into thai class 15 minutes late, and I didn't have the book so I was sent scampering downstairs to get one. And the door slammed real loud behind me... oops. But the ajarn is really nice, such a friendly, smiley looking lady. Way better than the fierce looking conversation teacher. Running across arts fac to get back to science is most unglam. Note to self: remember to wear shoes on fridays. Was like 15-20 mins late for stats tutorial too. ah well.

but praying for science was really good. coming before God collectively like that, the physical manifestation of our complete dependence on Him. I'm learning to adopt the posture of prayer.

It was nice meeting nick, haven't seen him in months! Glad we got to just have lunch before he goes off to canada. Really like the CD he lent me too, and he's got such cool books to show me! Best of all, he got to join us in prayer =)

I'm quite enamoured with friday CG. Each and every one of them. Like organelles in a cell, each in tune with the other and working in harmony. And best of all, self-organised! (which is great considering how disorganised I am). Had a good time during BS, I think the passage spoke to each of us, the different layers in it addressing personal concerns. Thank God for leading each of us in the Holy Spirit, revealing the Truths in His word.

It's been a long day. It's been a really long week.

And tomorrow is daddy's birthday!

In short,
goodnight.
