The week gone by and Church Hopping 1.0

Well, I would say it's been a really eventful week.  :) I'm really happy with this week and I hope that it stays nice.

What happened?
Well, this little boy got his first date for Valentines...that's what happened. hahaha
I'm still happy over that fact that you chose me :) So I've been kinda happy and procrastinating with happiness that I had to rush an important assignment which I kinda just completed.
And there's the fact that I had training for ping pong (So you weren't the only distraction hahah) on Wednesday and Friday.
Along with the normal hours of attending classes, I guess I've had quite a long week.

And it doesn't stop there sadly (or happily depending on how you look at it).  This week I have to pass up a major assignment which I just finished and so it's not really a biggy anymore, but there's also the fact that I have my midterms this week (So if you are reading this, stop distracting me hahaha).  A biopsych paper on Thursday followed immediately by the Child Abuse paper the next day. Both of my heavy subjects gonna pile and dig a grave for me.  I told myself "1st class honors" so I'm gonna work for it. I'm gonna spend less on the computer. Spend less on myself, and anything and focus on these papers. I need to score.

So this week, because of Valentines, I had a lot of explaining to do especially to many of my friends (It's amazing how curious of your life they all become when they discover you have a date).  But I guess I was happy to explain, after all there's nothing I can continue to hide...


Another reason why it was a good week, is because I finally put my church hopping plan into effect after 2 years in the talking.  So I visited the Bread Of Life Church - a bilingual church with a Chinese-speaking majority.  I would first like to say that I wasn't COMPLETELY lost.  I could understand what was happening sometimes.

So what did I learn? The speaker talked about Marriage and all and though there was nothing much new, I did learn that it's hard to concentrate when somebody keeps on talking to you.  hahaha

So what have I taken back?  I generally found them rather structured and welcoming.  It was like a flood of people coming to greet you walking all the way across the hall just to say hi.  The most intriguing thing was that they bothered to talk to you even after the service.  That's something new, unlike one church I've visited that didn't bother with the follow up.  

I've also taken back a little of their structure of their youth service that made me think.  I mean, why isn't our church giving the youth the main sanctuary to use?

A Say for Today

If right-handers use their left brain, doesn't it mean that left-handers are always in the right mind??
