wiped out

this week was crazy insane. World Opportunities Week..so lots of speakers and missionary organizations came to stop by and give info..had to register for classes for the spring semester, which was a HUGE headache. glad it's over and done with. stressed over it for the longest time. had to plan all my 4 year of college - like what classes i was gonna take and when. i hate planning for the future. i feel so confused about what God wants for me. it's like i wanna do the music study abroad WITH ALL MY HEART. but it doesn't give me any credit for my major and will probably cause me to graduate late. then there's the other option of the journalism study abroad which is practical, good for my future career (if i wanna write), blah blah. i hate choosing. so anyway, next semester looks pretty awesome. classes starting at 12pm everyday!!! except thur when they start at 2!!! i love sleeping in :)

so anyway..went for the greece and italy meeting. met people whom i'm gonna spend 3 weeks in greece n italy with in january. superbly excitedddd!!! it's gonna be so awesome. rushed tons of assignments n stuff. then sped off to a conference..the National Christian Multicultural Student Leadership Conference at Anderson Uni, which i had to go to, to keep my scholarship. it was pretty good. learnt alot about the issue of race n culture in america. made new friends! with pple in taylor and pple from other schs :) so that was gd. met a girl named benita!!! from nepal!!! sooo cool. she's the first other benita i've ever met. and met this guy from...SINGAPORE!!! which made me unusually happy. i dunno. guess its cuz i haven't seen another singaporean for the longest time. we bonded and hugged at first sight. it's weird, but just being from the same country bonds two strangers immediately. i felt like we were old friends. haha. so the conf was good. they had an open mic night and they put on a musical about Paul's lifestory...all i can say is whoa. black pple have AWESOME voices. i wish i could sing like that!!

so been sleeping at 2am everyday n waking up at 7am..sooo tiring. i need my sleep!!! last night went to visit luke n levi, and mum tracked me down n called their room. it was pretty hilarious. today woke up early AGAIN..went to church..which was REALLY GOOD! the worship was awesome. finally feel like i'm connecting. the sermon spoke volumes to me. cuz i've been struggling with the issue of God's will for my life. how do i know if it's His will or my selfish ambition??? i don't know. i'm just gonna surrender everything to Him and let Him deal with it cuz He knows best :) went shopping after church. got clothes on sale!! happiness. saved $$.

had small group with 2 other girls on my wing. we really shared our current struggles openly. turns out we're all strugglin with God's will for our future. isn't that funny? God works in funny ways. so it was really encouraging to just see that other pple are going thru the same thing i am..that i'm not alone :)
so..i just devoted like 5 hours of my life to TCA (taylor christian artists) cuz we had a fall worship night. so had to plan n organize it and make sure everything ran fine. it was fun! the turnout was really good! we packed the place n made it nice n cosy :) and our bands were really good. so proud of them. it was a really good time of worship.
yup! now.. gotta START homework. at almost 1am on a sunday night..or rather monday morning. heh. good luck to me.
