it’s a beautiful day…part 2
Why part 2? Cause of this previous post. ’nuff said.
Did any of you get to go and enjoy the great weather we had in TO today? Absolutely gorgeous. Spring has come! 
To make a great day better, spend it having a great lunch at Peter Pan with your mom, take a stroll around downtown for an hour, and have your design project completed! Speaking of which, come check out the cumulation of the past 7 months of documentation, failed testing, wrong parts, late nights at Bahen, and slacking off next Tuesday! My design partner, Nicola, and I will be showing off what we’ve designed and built at the annual ECE design fair in the basement of Sanford Fleming from 6:30-9pm on Apr. 3. So come out and check out what we and the other ECE students have concocted.
It’s a beautiful day, the sky falls
And you feel like it’s a beautiful day
Don’t let it get away
shameless promos
So, just as the title indicates, I’m going to shamelessly promote some up coming events. But before that, for those who care, a little update with the happenings of this lazy student.
So, in the past 2 months, I’ve been cut for cancer, saw a phantom terrorize an opera house, saw/listened to Switchfoot at Kool Haus (check out the vids here), retreated with a fellowship, given up meat & seafood for lent, started teaching swimming lessons again for the first time in 5 years, visted some friends in ‘loo, started some cool business courses, had dinner with a friend from Brazil, started tutoring again with the Meds, 
winterliscioused it up at La Maquette, saw the Canadiens (unfortuantely) lose at the ACC, and been trying to get into a regular routine now that I have less class. Hmmm…looking back, looks like I had some good times. So, what’s next? Hilarities at Skule Nite 0T7, CCF elections, find a summer job, launch Acting on AIDS, Unity in Diversty, become a shadow for a skit on Easter Sunday, finish up my design project, vacation with the fam to Vancouver & Alaska, figure out what to do with my life.
Now, onto the promos:
Come to UTCCF’s coffehouse: Unity in Diversity! This Friday at 6:30 pm at the Buttery. Food, music, friends, dancing plus thelaunching of Acting on AIDS! It’s going to be a great night!
Also, come to the first Acting on AIDS workshop at U of T! If you read my Urbana blogs, you may remember me mentioning about how we should be the generation that ends the AIDS pandemic. So, here at U of T, the first Acting on AIDS chapter is starting. We’re having speakers come in from World Vision to share what’s going on in the world with respect to AIDS and what you can do. Come out, learn, and be challenged to act justly. Join the movement! Tuesday, March 20 at 6 pm in the Bahen centre, room 2155.
Ending off today with some hilarities. Probably not what Jesus meant by “turn the other the cheek,” but funny nonetheless. *profanity warning*

last beautiful autumn day?
It’s 2am, and I’m still up…why? I don’t know, I never seem to go to bed before 1 these days.
Interesting weekend. Thanksgiving dinner at CCF on Friday. Great times. Good food + food for the soul. Very unproductive Saturday. Went out for lunch with the parents and my grandma before she heads back to HK. Very yummy dim sum. Weird one minute hail downpoar during the lunch. Small group that night. Awesome night of sharing. So blessed to have this group to be supported and encouraged by. Beautiful Sunday. Especially after teh cold snap we had last week. Good hot chocolate from a new place across from the AGO. Very friendly owner, Renee. He even gave us a free tart each! Definitely going back. Delicious experimental supper with Giz: eggplant & chicken. First time for both of us with cooking eggplant, but came out pretty good. Worth repeating for sure. Ended off with school work with Nicola at Bahen…fun times…psyche! (90′s kid anyone?)
Been really struggling with my laziness lately. It hasn’t been just not doing what I need to do (namely school), but just not caring either. Been sharing (or I guess complaining) with lots of people. Sorry if I talked to you about this and sounded very self-absorbed. Thank you for the patience to listen and thank you to those who have prayed for me. This weekend, started to turn around a little. On Friday, talking with Andrea, hearing how she’s handling her busyness at work, having the right attitude: it’s all for the glory of God. Something I desperately needed reminding of. Wish I could say I started working hard after that, but as I said before, very unproductive Saturday. Got back into school mode a bit today. A good start, but not a great one. Hoping I can build on this for the rest the year. All for you Lord, for your glory.
one day our generation, is gonna rule the population
Wow, it’s been a while since I’ve been on here. So much has happened in the past month, so a quick update. Back at school in Toronto, last year of EE at UT, should be an awesome one. Internship at IBM was great, but also glad to be back in school. Busy, busy, busy past 3 weeks with CCF stuff: awesome SAC booth day/Frosh BBQ, amazing Orientation Dinner, and an astounding Fall Retreat (woo! connect & community) that just ended earlier today. Saw John Mayer twice in the past month. Simply great, as always with JM. Check out videos of the Mod Club show here (including some shot by yours truly).
So that’s what I’ve been up to…how do I feel? Tired. It’s been a few weeks since I’ve gotten to bed before 2 (but that’s changing tonight…). Been busy, falling behind on school work already. But it’s been great, can’t wait to see what God has in store for this year.
That’s it for now, mainly because I’m falling asleep at the keyboard here, but I’m going to end it off with a promo: come to Scarborough Baptist Chinese Church next Saturday (Sept. 30) at 7:30 pm to hear about my Brazil missions trip! It’s going to be great
