paniccccc

WOW, if there is anyday to feel OVERWHELMED, its today! i don't know what just came over me but here i am sitting in front of my computer, not really talking to anyone and not knowing what to do. so i was thinking..and then i realized i had to fold my laundry. and then i saw a pile of papers sitting on my desk that i had to put into my binders (to keep from having ALL my notes in one big, messy pile which was totally pissing me off earlier this term cuz my binders were at home and i refused to buy the one-inch ones for $5 at the WLU bookstore).
ANYWAY!!! maybe i'm thinking too much but its already getting to be a very very long week! EVIE, i know what you mean by a PANIC ATTACK! i think i'm having one!
lets start at the beginning...

PANIC ATTACK #1
so i was talking to my mom on MSN today, and she told me that i had to call my orthodontist cuz theres another appointment in march sometime. and then i hafta decide when to go for my last free-OHIP eye appointment in april. and she asked me to go to missionfest with her to see this women's convention thing in march. and then i realized that i'd hafta schedule in all this stuff in with work, assignments, and final exams! and its my gramma's birthday this weekend, and my aunt's coming to visit from the states, and...it goes on. but yeah..it doesn't help that i have assignments due EVERY SINGLE WEEk of march..and exams etc.

PANIC ATTACK #2
soo many assignments! i thought it'd be over last week, but noooo. this week is a lil' breather i guess, after my soc assignemnt tmw, but next week will be a matter of survival. if i've learned anything from university, its that you should always start early on assignments and finish them before the night before, and also read the material before the night before your midterm. it doesn't help that i'm ...really lazy!! which is bad...but yeah..last night i slept like 9 hours which is more than i got in 2 days last week, and woke up feeling super groggy. *sigh*

PANIC ATTACK #3
this started last week...there are too many peopel in waterloo to see everyone! at lifesong last week, i finally got to see ppl that i haven't seen since last term...and it was so good! but then i realized that we have so much catching up to do and that i don't spend enough time with people...and then people back home, i miss them! definitly need a catching up day..

*sigh* this doesn't sound like soooo bad i guess. so why am i feeling like this? i think evie got the answer @women's cell...at the times where we're the most happy/organized/at peace with ourselves, thats when the spiritual battle is hardest...and we can lose touch with ourselves and God...

hmm well other than that...this week had its bright sides!

Random bright sides of the week:

- getting my first icoke.ca points, since the caf/terrace has these new cards which everyone keeps getting..and giving to me! thanks. =) on the way to free movie tickets so i can take chris on a date..haha...

- finishing bu121 midterm on saturday and surviving! it wasn't too bad. and it makes you feel lots better when u find out NO ONE else's balance sheet balanced either!

- going to an opera on sunday by WLU music students. and it was free! and it was really good! justin says: "look at you, so cultured" haha.

- going to viet (beside bbtease) on sunday for lunch with WLU & WATERLOO people and watching carson kill jokes. and aaron make things AWKWARD. and aaron c.'s colour blind friend...

- going to viet AGAIN for dinner after the opera with tracy and watching howard eat a jalepeno pepper and watching his face scrunch up in pain! j/k. it was pretty funnie though.

- today being such a BEAUTIFUL, SUNNY DAY!! summer is coming soon and that means school will be over soon and..AHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! *getting excited*

- watching HEATH LEDGER SMILE while watching "10 things i hate about you" at women's cell today! i think my heart MELTED..a few times. *sigh* and tracy,ev,amy and i had dinner..mac&cheese, instant greenbeans, and spinach salad..mMM.

- i just realized i spend alot of money on food!! and i've almost hit the freshman 10...AHH!!! put the two together and...see the problem. haah this is not a good thing. gym time this week will be wed, thurs and friday. muhaha

- me and chris are OK. =D and tmw is our 22 months....ahh!!!

- applying for lccf committee next year, i have this really good feeling about it! its gonna be fun...and also a growing experience! i guess..its something i really feel like God is telling me to do now, and i've seen that through all the support we're getting and just so many things that are happening right now through devos and talks with friends...

OH YEAH!
and lccf WINTER RETREAT!!! was awesomes, even though i was sick the whole weekend. definitely learned alot from the speaker's message...nobody wanted to go home...cuz it was way too short! hehe.

its 1:03....

its 1:03..two hours before the econ mid-term. but i just can't wait to share this awesome poem from women's cell devos this morning! It was about confidence..and in BEING rather than DOING....more to come!


This is Holy Ground
Take off your confident shoes. Your red power suit. Put down your briefcase.
Take off your jewelry. Forget about lipstick and end-of-the-day mascara smudges.
Forget about mirrors. In fact, ruffle your hair a bit.
Come, sit down and be.

Now take off your Self.
Personality? Lay it down. Yes, achievements, too.
Your talents. All those unique little quirks.
And just for a while, take off your charm.
Come, stand heart-naked,
honest, before God
and yourself.
