Cool videos I saw today (I don't know how they popped up on my Youtube Watch Later list, but I'm glad they were there -- because they were really good):

(a) Japanese synchronized gymnastics http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EtwB4jnO7ro&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL
(b) Commentary on the English language by a 102-year-old: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_dc65V7DV8&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL

These past few weeks have been so full. Can't describe the sheer volume of stuff I need to (should) process. I keep telling myself, "I don't want to be busy! I don't want to be busy!" and yet I find myself busy and i find myself chafing at the bit if I am not doing something. Why I cam such a crazy, confused, contrary, self-focused person?! Thankful for snippets of time I do have for reflection. And for early mornings. And for sisters who keep me grounded. And for Johnny making me spend time not keeping busy (though I sometimes don't appreciate it until in retrospect). And for a good, so very good, so very strong, so very faithful, so very loving God.

Girls' night was amazing. So much praise for how everything came together, for the bonding and sharing and understanding and building up that happened last night and this morning. Prayer that the relationships strengthened last night among the girls and the guys in our fellowship and the slightly older men and women of HCC will continue growing as we spur each other on to be more like Christ.

Heh, I think that last night's sleep is just now starting to hit me. I must say, I was pretty impressed with myself waking up sans alarm at 730, and glad for time alone in the patch of sunlight by the window on Yvonne's staircase. It's really cool to be awake when no one else is awake =D But am tired now, and thoughts are disjointed.

Two items on immediate agenda: food, rest.

ttfn!
