This morning I also was able to read!! :)!!! FINALLY!! Recently I have been stresssing over time :( and also have been falling asleep by accident. I read this morning from the first book of Timothy. He writes that about the importance of "physical training" but that it, "is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come."
It is value that lasts,
"This is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance. That is why we labor and strive, because we have put our hope in the living God, who is the Savior of all people, and especially of those who believe."
To run a race...
to run a race... you need a goal. ....
a reason to run.... and the motivation to run.
our physical appearance can only go so far... nature will take it's toll.. and our beauty should not be defined by the view of another... each person has a different idea of beautiful... strict rules on how to treat your body can only go so far. But the Hope that is in Christ Jesus will surpass all time... gravity will not pull it down .... it's value can not be cheapened by people... it may not appear valuable to all, but all who know his Grace, Mercy, and LOVE know that it can not, will not, has not ever changed. To all it will remain. For all, he remains a "Savior of all people". Let it be known, let it be accepted.
By the time I ate and everything I had taken too long and kinda missed the "Wonderful Race".... but Shannon and I met up and took pictures all around the field area! We caught the rugby team practicing, at first i thought it was soccer... I was soo happy.. but... then..... I realized... it was Rugby (nothing against rugby... i have never played.. so it is not my favorite sport yet :P)
We took soo manny pictures :)!! NICCEEE!! Then we went back and made lunch. It was Fried potatoes=french fries :P... or.. "chips"(if you are from Europe)... :P.. and spring rolls and potstickers :)!. So yummy! Then we had to run to the Student life guidance session. Kayla was one of the people running it :)!!! <3

After it was over, we saw Go :). He was a friend I made at the Library guidance. We all went back to AP house 2 and played ping pong ! It was fun.. well it was more like... ping-tennis-badmitton-pong :)!SO Abuchan and I left. I went to try and figure out my course schedule (which failed) and then got a snack of mellon :). Soon, it was time to go to the AP house welcome ceremony/party! It was fun :). At first we waited a while.... But i met a guy named Alvin, and I saw S again :)... well she changed her name to Suusuu now... but she is very sweet.
We were welcomed by the head of the dorms... and then the other faculty. We heard a speech given by an Indonesian student named Virginia. She spoke well. And afterwards, we had to watch a 20 minute video on "dame dame" ... aka the AP House rules. IT was the most entertaining video. I love how instructional video's here are made by the students or the faculty... are SO funny, and very entertaining, they also usually have american music playing in them too!! (so it sound cool and everyone pays attention :)
After it all finished, we went to the party in the cafeteria. (I like how the cafeteria lets us do that... and you can come in to eat even if you do not buy anything, you can sit, and even get tea and water. But we all had food that the RA's set up for us. They poured us drinks, and all together we yelled KAMPAI and drank. (Coke or Apple juice :). At 1st I messed up... I accidentally drank before I was supposed to :P... ooopppss!!!
After we ate and rotated around eating each thing that was on the table... it was SOOO YUMMYY!! . There was chicken.. 2 types.. a fried tempura chicken, and one that tasted like fajitas :). (I missed it soo much). Um then there were empanada like things, pinnaple, pizza, and even flan! :) .. (it was different, it was creamy(like icecream too) and had cookies (oreo crumbs) at the bottom.
Later on we all watched performances by the cultural circles (groups/clubs) and the RA's put on dances and performances too!! It was soo funny!! Oppa gundam style was immitated again... along with Disney's High school musical... and Michael Jackson's Thriller :)!! It was soo funny!!
I took soo manny pictures! Then ... Shannon Sunyoung and I went back to AP House. I went to my room (which I am in now) and am blogging ;)! .
Goodnight <3
