Day 2-5










things that make my world go round <3
big to small
in the physical sense at least :)


it's been a verypackedweek. i've been realizing all these little things that take up my time, such as the fact that i am the slowest packer in the world when i depart for the library/lounge and departing from the library/lounge, i take forever picking what to eat, getting everything i want to eat, walking from place to place because i like the location for that specific purpose, -.-... oy. 

i guess going from 12 units to 19 units is quite a change. but i don't want to take the easy way out. i know God wants me to go through this process, and He means for me to learn muchmuchmore than just time-management. 

no facebook and AIM makes me feel less involved and aware of things in a way, but more involved and aware of things that really matter. tis a good thing. 

i am also realizing that i really prioritize people before tasks. whether that's a good thing or a bad thing or just something i need to be aware of, i am trying to figure out. but direction is definitely needed. stewardship is definitelyyy needed. 

five days through the prayer-driven life have been pretty awesome. i am proud to say despite this probably being my busiest week ever here (so far T_T), i've also put the most effort to make room for reflection. i guess it really is time-management. I bet God had that in mind too, everyone has 24 hours, just enough for us to learn... 

and God is really funny. This just made my week. It's usually impossibly hard to find Obadiah in the Bible, right? (It's only 1 chapter long. Hidden somewhere near Isaiah in the OT). So some of my suitemates and I were talking about the books of the Bible as we were discussing HUM. Grace, one of my suitemates, comments that "nobody ever uses or reads books like... Obadiah". And RIGHT then, Elaine, another suitemate- OPENS IT STRAIGHT TO OBADIAH. wow. amajing. and THEN... the next day, I tell my small group that I think God is really funny because of that incident.  and RIGHT when I say that, Holly, who was sitting right next to me... OPENS HER BIBLE STRAIGHT TO OBADIAH again. Wow. It's not even like it was because it was the same Bible and had a marking or whatever. And... not even at random times but like.. when it was being referred to??? God is really funny. The Creator of humor must be funny.
