so ... tim e-mailed our small group and told us not to eat dinner on mondays ever again ... he's gonna cook for us every week. awwwww ... what a nice guy. heh heh ... i'll probably help him out some weeks and test out my cooking on my small group. =P yeah, we'll be going through I Corinthians so that's pretty cool ... and we should be getting some new members. i'm excited. woooohoooooo. =] ever since norCal retreat, i've been getting carsick every time i get into a vehicle. i got carsick going to my grandma's today, driving to h2o yesterday, and riding on bart ... bleh. i hope this doesn't last too long ... =/ go stanford. =] i like the stanford bball team. =P i dislike my ee20 book ... i don't think it's particularly well written. bah. but whatcha gonna do ... it's written by my professor ... ten thousand miles from here -bj

i'm thankful for friday nights. i get to go to sleep before 12. =P so i forgot to rant how upset i was yesterday that i did not get to go out to dinner with steve and some other people ... yeah, i was stuck in the CS lab. booooo. labs from 6-8 aren't very fun. =/ no good, no good. anyhoo ... henry says, "man, that guy, steve, is always smiling. he's so happy." yerp. that's why i like hanging out with him. his happiness makes me happy, too. =] it's kinda funny, but that's something i strive for. i wanna be known as a happy person. of course, that's not my highest goal ... i wanna be known as someone who loves God with all his heart ... one that seeks after His will ... but i also wanna be known as someone who's genuinely joyful ... i find that quality in people especially refreshing. =] nominations today at h2o. erm. yeah. i'm hoping that new people will be able to be on council ... not that the old people are bad / doing a bad job ... i just wanna see certain people step up and be given the opportunity to serve. =] uncle dennis spoke at h2o ... he spoke on church ordinances. pretty interesting ... it was a good reminder of why we do things like baptism and the Lord's prayer ... i like auntie judy ... a lot. =] she's always so fun to talk to ... and she always seems so interested in what's going on in my life. =] she wanted to know all about my norCal retreat. =] i was sorta the garret baby-sitter today at the guys' meeting ... it seemed like my group - the food group - had it all under control ... so i followed garret around and made sure he didn't get into too much trouble. he's pretty strong for just a small tyke. =] it'll be weird once he starts talking ... it seems like he's been a baby for so long ... but he's starting to form phrases already. he calls gary "baaaaa". =] and he kept trying to push down bookshelves and i would say "stuck" ... and he'd kinda copy me. =P amusing. looking foward to small groups starting up again at h2o. i hear they need more small group leaders because so many new people wanna join a small group this semester. how exciting. =] maybe we'll get some fresh blood in our group. hoooooray. =] the honesty's too much -bj
accountability again today ... goodah. dave and henry are good guys. =] i'm glad it's the weekend. i'm so drained ... and i think i'm getting sick. =P eh. anyway ... lots of work to do ... heading home ... later ... goodbye cruel world -bj

this semester will either kill or horribly disfigure me. i will say my goodbyes now. =P alright, just kidding. God will sustain me ... but this semester will be a challenge ... ee20 seems not tooooooooooo bad ... ee40's gonna be hard ... cs61c will be a lot of work ... and my history class has SOOOOOOOOOOO much reading, but it seems interesting ... but there are also midterms, two papers, group projects, weekly homeworks ... bah ... all that for a stupid history class. =/ so yeah. eh. this semester will be a lesson of trusting in God. =] saw a lot of people on campus today ... angel, tina, oleg, henry, aimee, chris, hung, kenny ... =D that made me happy ... even though i didn't get to talk to all of them, it's just nice seeing familiar faces. =] word. -bj

aacf was good, even though i only made it to the last half because i have a cs discussion from 7-8. =[ got a big hug from erik, a big hug from nate, and a big hug from jason. haha ... i'm so poooopular. =] also had a good talk with brian toy. =P yay. after aacf, steve, pons, and i went to angel's to turn in our pages for the encouragement book. had some laughs there ... =] then, steve and i walked pons home to clark kerr ... stayed a long time and watched some of pons' random cool videos ... leaving pons' room, we saw a girl crying in the hallway ... steve asks if she's okay ... she says she is, so we both leave ... but both steve and i felt a burden for her ... i think if we could turn back time, i'd have offered to pray with her ... but i didn't think of it at the time ... so once we left the building, steve and i just took a minute to pray for her ... walking back from clark kerr to foothill, steve and i just shared where we each are in our walks ... and shared some prayer requests ... it was a big encouragement to me. now i'm back at my apartment ... i have a semi-light day tomorrow ... my feet hurt like crazy ... haha ... lots of walking today. =P blue like jazz -bj
tabled today ... good talking with aimee, eddy, and tiff. tim also came up and scared me from behind. =P that tim ... =] stolen from chris's live journal. =P i don't have a digicam. =] norCal retreat @ camp hammer. =]

so ... just got back from my first lecture of the semester. oddly enough, it feels kinda good being back in class. i'm sure the feelings will fade. unfortunately i've been getting bad physics 7b flashbacks. =P bah. ee40 is just like physics 7b ... does not look too good for the home team ... =/ maybe i'll understand it better this time. on route 66 -bj

back from retreat ... quick update ... then i wanna nap. =] it was good. the end. okay, no ... just kidding ... quick highlights ... favorite moments of retreat 1) riding down and back with debbie, zeeho, calvin, and clara (and getting pretty car sick; i sat in the middle =P ) 2) am & ed 3) saturday morning devotions with erik and albert 4) sunday breakfast w/ freshies, zeeho, steve, and aimee ... and playing those stupid riddle games ... (johnny, johnny, johnny, johnny, whoops, johnny ...) 5) speed scrabble 6) 2nd small group meeting 7) campfire ... and steve sharing about his spanish movie ... hahah 8) table soccer ... me and helen verses alex and john. close game. we lost. =[ 9) writing encouragement notes to a lot of people 10) sunday worship w/ the berkeley praise team. =] sooooooo much energy ... and i really like the songs dan cheng picked out. =] 11) mud football w/ a bunch of berkeley people, ben, and ed ... =P (sjsu, sfsu, and ucd must not like football much ... haha) 12) james sharing w/ me ... 13) my cabin ... haha ... a shower for every four guys ... and some cabins didn't have any showers. =P yeah ... all in all ... not bad. =] pastor winsome brought up some good points ... i think i could have gotten more out of it, but i was oftentimes writing things down ... discussion questions based on the sermon ... i had am in my small group ... pretty amazing considering the small groups were 5-6 people and there were 20 different small groups ... =P but i'm glad she was in my group ... our first meeting wasn't so great ... people didn't talk much, so i basically kept asking questions off the top of my head ... but the second time we met, everyone shared different things ... it was great ... and i'm glad we spent time to pray for each other. =] my group was a bunch of leaders ... and people that had been Christians for a while ... Julie from Berkeley (the Women's ministry coordinator at aacf), Darren from SFSU (well, from City college but he goes to sfsu aacf ... he helped plan norCal and was SFSU's rep), Nate from SJSU (who played drums for the San Jose worship team at NorCal retreat), Am from Davis (who's leading a small group at AACF), and Chris from Davis (who's just a freshie ... but he's been a Christian for a while.) awesome people in my small group. =] this retreat i met a lot of people, but i got to know very few of them very well ... but for the few that i got to know a lot better, it was great. at aacf fall retreat, i met with james dellinger and steve ... and those two are two of the people i'm closest to at aacf ... at norCal retreat, i got to know erik ... he's a senior that goes to berkeley, but i've never ever seen him at aacf before ... but he's such an awesome guy. he's such a great guy to talk to ... and he's hilarious ... and he has this infectious passion for God ... it was great ... got to know Darren from my small group a lot ... he shared ... he's cool, too ... and he was in the same cabin as me. timmy is hilarious, too ... and i got to talk with timothy, albert's cousin. yup. goodah. so yeah. good stuff. pastor winsome's message on passion was my favorite. =] the end. -bj
