ISCA Leaders' Retreat

Since finals was over last Wednesday, I felt so much more relieved [i guess?] that there is no more datelines, no more assignments, no more cramming in the library at night, no more deprived of entertainment..but it was not exactly that..lol..I had to pack all my stuff to get ready to move out of my dorm room..it was frustrating, overwhelming and tiring! I packed for 3 1/2 days, with help from my friend..finally, I moves out of Yocum Hall on Sunday afternoon. Mind you, I have yet to unpack all my stuff for several reasons.

On Sunday, after moving all my stuff to Candy's room, I had to quickily shower and head over to ISCA house for my ISCA Leaders' Retreat. So, everything was pretty chaotic for me, very tiring too. At 4.30pm, we headed out to Westfork [ i think that's where] for out retreat. It was Clark, Kevin, Megan, Hugh, Michael, Cendrina and I..We stayed at a family's house out from the city. It was a big house, with games room, 2 kitchen, several bedrooms and music instruments..They had 6kids, and a doggie..it was a really nice place to be in! I really like it there! we spent a whole 24hrs together, getting to know each other better as a team..spending quality time together as a team and also, learning about God in the beautiful nature..here are several pics i took!


The geese that were not afraid/intimidated of Hugh

Megan and I when we went on the trail on the ATV! It was fun fun fun! I'd never been on an ATV till that day and it was awesome!
The lake by the trail
The pond outside the house

All said and done, that retreat was awesome even though I crashed at 10pm that Sunday night. I learnt a lot and enjoyed myself a lot..I also learned that it might be peaceful to be out from the crowd, the city..even though I miss the city a lot!

Till then, summer is here and I am just bumming around..so, ppl, drop me a msg once in a while ok? miss y'all!

stressful moments


I wish my life would be just that of the picture, relaxing under the sunshine..haha..However, as I'm entering my final week of my first year here in the States, life is insanely hectic! I'm buried with assignments, papers, tests, finishing up every little details of all my work, wrapping up my semester and not forgetting, finding time to prepare for my finals. First finals is on next Saturday at 730am! It's crazy..how am I gonna be able to take a final on Saturday at 730am?? Not forgetting, ALL my finals are comprehensive! all 5 of them! I think I'm going to go crazy if I don't find a balance between all these. I'd been losing my patience every once in a while, not being able to sleep at night and getting random ideas. Sometimes, it feels good to isolate myself and just be alone..I mean, it doesn't sound too bad but for those who know me, i HATE being alone..yup..huge change huh? Oh well, I put the blame on something call 'stress'..haha..oh well, 2 more weeks and it's summer vacation for me..can't wait to kick back, relax and enjoy the beautiful sunshine and cross my fingers and hope it gets warmer each day! I WANT SUNSHINE!!! not rain or cold windy days..

P.S. I might disappear for a tad while due to upcoming finals..will be back after 7th May though..keep me posted, people..

Odd Spring

SPRING TIME!

Spring Time, by definition would means getting warmer, leaving all your thick winter jackets in the closet, goodbye thermal wear..and hello t-shirts, caprices occasionally, heels and occasionally skirts..However, due to global warming and the change in our whole system, everything is messed up! It's soooooooooooo cold! I'm freezing here, and to top everything up, all the heaters in the dorms have been shut down since it is Spring already! I mean, what about everyone of us who are freezing in our rooms? what about that below freezing level temperature? It's worse when you're on top the hill and on the 3rd highest floor..Let me just say this again, I'M FREEZING HERE!!!!!!! I miss the hot sunshine, the warm breeze (not cold wind!) and the smell of warmth in the air..Don't be mistaken by the look of my pictures, the sun looks so warm but it's not! The cold wind pierces through your skin, leaving you nothing but shivers. One good thing about this season of oddness is the pretty pretty flowers blossoming all around campus! They're just so lovely.. wee~~


So, what do we students do at near Finals? Study alone?
Not exactly! haha..we posed at the mall and took random pictures and did several other randomness..

woohoo~~ I CAN actually fit into that..lolz..


Iara and I..Iara came to visit during Spring Break. It was fun! She makes me look so short here since she had to bent down to take this pic with me..lolz..
