wow

Slight paraphrased, but here you go:

Something really profound.

Dom Post, 30 May 2008, Life section, something about teenagers

"The prefrontal cortex, the part of the brain that controls wisdom, is the last part of the brain that develops fully."

WOW.

You know those bloody stupid stuff that you've done in the past? And you look back now, and you think to yourself: WHAT THE HELL WAS I THINKING?

Here you go. That's your explanation.

In layman's terms, you were an idiot.

three times the charm

So one fine morning, I went to airnewzealand.co.nz

Hellooo..lookie what we got here.

Cheap flights.

Ooo...

Wellington to Christchurch.

Yes? No? Choices..

Ee-nee-mee-nee-mi-nee..

*start texting Vivy*

*Vivy said yes*

*Hit the "grab" button*

Wee.. off to Christchurch again in August. Third time this year.

CK said I should just move there. HAHA. Nah, not now. Welly is still awesome =)

So stress level is increasing because I'm still trying hard to understand what's going on in class, and it seems that I don't understand much. Hopefully when I'm revising the light bulb will start to glow, and perhaps then I won't feel as incompetent.

Amos is coming down to Welly soon! Yaay! It's been ages since the Wellingtonians saw him and it'll be real good catching up with him.

David is moving out this weekend. Sigh =(

And in the meantime, my heart is breaking for Myanmar and China. During breakfast I was reading an article from TearFund magazine, and my heart broke for Africa.

I know that His love exceeds all and surrounds all things, and His compassion is never ending. His mercy lasts forever. And I know that His heart breaks with every tear. Lord, may you partner with us in making this world good again. Help us establish your kingdom here, that all may know your Name, so that the poor may call themselves rich, the sorrowful will rejoice, and the persecuted may be accepted in Your loving embrace. Your living Word embodies the cries of many suffering people: the Israelites, the prophets, the lepers, the blind, the demon-possessed, the lame, the Gentiles, the prostitutes... but it also tells me of a God-Man who came to provide salvation, love and freedom, so that He and His followers can participate in the healing of a broken world.

Hear our cry. Help us.

about mothers

In my daughter's eyes, I am a hero
I am strong and wise and I know no fear
But the truth is plain to see
She was sent to rescue me
I see who I wanna be
in my daughter's eyes
In my daughter's eyes, everyone is equal
Darkness turns to light and the world is at peace
This miracle God gave to me
Gives me strength when I am weak
I find reason to believe
in my daughter's eyes
When she wraps her hand around my finger
Oh it puts a smile in my heart
Everything becomes a little clearer
I realise what life is all about
Its hanging on when your heart has had enough
Its giving more when you feel like giving up
I've seen the light
Its in my daughter's eyes
In my daughter's eyes, I can see the future
A reflection of who I am and what will be
Though she'll grow and someday leave
Maybe raise a family
When I'm gone I hope you see how happy she made me
For I'll be there
In my daughter's eyes

Hmm.. uni didn't start that long ago, did it?

Because exams are starting in about one month's time. And I don't understand ANYTHING.

Say hello to third year.

It's not that I don't like accounting. I can't really imagine myself going into another professional field. So I like it enough to want it bad enough as a job. But if I get to do university all over again, and if I get to choose what I wanna do, and if there is no time limit as to how long I can stay in uni, and if money wasn't an issue (lots of ifs), I will do a Bachelor of Commerce in Accounting, a LLB in Law, and a Bachelor of Arts in Theology. And I will be overqualified =D. Daddy says that there is no such thing as "finish studying", so technically I can continue studying on and on... YEAH RIGHT.

On a lighter side of things, I have been doing some reading! Done with Love in the time of Cholera, and now starting to read Catch-22 although I think novels might have to take a backseat for the next couple of weeks, especially with the amount of stuff that's been going on with uni, work and other little things that take up time.

On a slightly down side, my flatmate David is gonna move out soon, and we've been flatmates since beginning of last year, so its gonna be really sad. Now we're gonna have lots of problems because he owns the microwave, the blender, the tv, the DVD player and sound system. Bye bye entertainment and easy life. So I don't really know how things are going to be like in the second sem in terms of the flat. They'll be 2 new people again (we already had 2 new people this year, and sad to say I haven't really gotten to know them as much as I should, but yeah.. that's individualism for you.) So I'm kind of nervous about the whole thing, but I guess there's nothing else to do but pray that we get good, nice people. The initial plan was to move out in June and try to get into the joint CU-ICF flat, but I think that's not gonna work out as well.

Oh yeah, tomorrow is Cafe Night! I've tried to make this little thing called pink fingers, but it didn't turn out well. Guess I'm not meant to be a good baker! Maybe I'm only meant to bake chocolate cakes and cook Asian stuff. Anyway, I'm pretty excited bout the Night, although at the same time I feel kinda bad for not helping out as much this time. Because having done the planning before, I know how it feels when there are not enough hands.. All the same, still extremely excited about the night!

Oh and I got offered to tutor again next sem! YAAY! But I think they'll ask me to tutor ACCY 111 this time, since I'm not senior enough to tutor the advanced paper for management accounting. But I really enjoyed tutoring management accounting! The assignments are easy to mark, the students are quite good, the material is becoming more and more familiar to me, and I actually understand the material a lot more now compared to when I was a student! But anyhoo.. I'm good with tutoring any paper.

Anyway, I have a surprise event to co-ordinate.
