6. GIRLS NIGHT (LAST FRIDAY AND SATURDAY) and i watched a walk to remember for the FIRST TIME which is kinda of blasphemous and makes me a man but meh! and then we watched ps i love you and basically, it was a room full of crying girls and a used up tissue box. then we watched 27 dresses :) and slept at 3. we got up, had delicious breakfast, and talked about life. i love tcf girls :)
7. omgoodness prayer couch (LAST MONDAY, WEDNESDAY, AND THURSDAY?)

20091006

it's a new daaay

it's been such a long time!
but yah since last time...
friday, we went to little tokyo and ate ourselves silly and browsed the selection and just had a ton of fun :) and thenn that night, we went to ktown and ate MORE, buffet bbq for 20 dollars with our parkside friends :) i love parkside!
simi came that night! and we stayed up really late talking
saturday, FOOTBALL GAMEEE, me and sim walked around the tailgates and hung out with some harker kids. then we went back home and did our ritual suite nail painting session before heading out to the game three hours early.
ROW 7 YEEEE :) we almost got on tv too andd yah. so basically, we won and it was excellent :) i got pushed up!! that was super exciting. afterward, we went to the smallest in n out i've ever seen and it was super delicious. and then i almost died in katelyn's car. the end!
sunday, CHURCH and thenn eating dericious vietnamese sandwichs on the grassy knoll :) then hung out with sim until she had to go home.

monday was my first college exam and i'm feeling pretty confident about it. i stayed up really late studying and christine saved my life bcus she took it last year and emailed me her old study guides so <3 :)
tuesday mmm nothing too interesting except bible study! :)
blahblah studying and then

FRIDAYYY :) left for fall con <3
we all met at the top of the parking structure which was a painful trek with all my clothes and moocow and we headed to trogro to get some food. then we GOT LOST on the way to the terminal and everyone was waiting for us HAHA FAIL
the boat ride was SOOO FUN so unlike the ride to catalina island in 8th grade eww :( but the wind was whipping and the moon was out and the ocean was calm and the STARS WERE VISIBLE it was gorgeous :)
when we got there, there were no lights in our cabins which was kind of inconvenient but the bathrooms were much nicer and there were pretty PALM TREES at campus by the sea.
we had session 1 and small group as well as snacks and then a MAD DANCE PARTY YEE it was so fun :) meeting other people from other schools and dancing the night away :) ahh it was so fun.
it ended around 1AM and we trekked back to our cabin to wash up and i saw a catalina fox! on the way out of the bathroom. then we dragged our sleeping bags out to the beachfront and our sleeping bags and blankets and pillows and fell asleep on the beach.

waking up on the beach is the most refreshing and beautiful thing in the world! :) sigh but i had to get up too early bcus i had to shower before the morning bell and everyone else got up. then we had breakfast which was delicious. why was the food so delicious?? then we had worship and session 2 (which entailed some snuggies...) as well as small group and alone/reflection time which was the perfect thing.
afterward, we had lunch and our small group and ben's was OTS so we sped through washing the dishes and joined the rest of the camp for THE GREAT RACE '09
which entailed (probably out of order...)
1. swimming from the big rock to the shore
2. spitting on an altsaseltzer tablet wrapped to someone else's forehead
3. sudoku with music blasting and people from other teams distracting you
4. running from the bridge to the cross on the cliff (REALLY FAR!!) while having water and flour flung on you
5. "helping grandma cross the street" four legged blindfolded race
6. "my girlfriend's purse" where you had to look through a whole bag for a random item
7. handfeeding blindfolded helena baby food
8. singing a sad song in a boat for a certain amount of time
9. kayaking half blindfolded to the dock and around and back
10. getting in a pyramid with two people on top and singing a song
all with a baton which was a raw egg.
AND GUESS WHO WON
YEEEHHH the wild buffalo won :) not only did we win a stainless steel campus by the sea waterbottle of 12 dollar value, we have also won bragging rights for a whole year!!

afterward we got like three hours of freetime so i and a couple people went on a "thirtyminute" hike up SCAR. it's called scar for a reason. i was practically climbing on my hands and feet -____- around prickly pears. but it was SUPER fun and SUPER exhausting and SUPER HOT AND SWEATY AND VERYYY rewarding. the view was beautiful :) God is good!
afterrr helena and i went kayaking and then went swimming with valerie in the ocean with inner tubes :)

SHOWER! and then dinner and listening to the game v. cal on the radio :D we even did pushups in the cafeteria -_- they think USC kids are crazyyy we have too much spirit hahahaha
everyone was reppin usc that weekend hahaha
then session 3 and small group, we saw a bat!!! but yah, very nice small group session. then we had snacks and everyone played a large game of mafia of about 50 people but solanda and i didn't want to so we had some girl time and talked a lot :) and ate a lot and drank a lot of tea. then we went for a night hike to the cross and played ultimate ninja on a cliff in the dark over an amazing view. afterward, we hung out and told scary stories by the campfire until late and played ten fingers until around 2AM and finally decided to wash up and get ready for bed

another beautiful night on the beach :)
but forgot socks so it was kinda cold :(

got up early to pack and had a really good breakfast.
woke up to a gorgeous sunrise and a seal! :)
worship was <3 and small group time was awesome. we were to create an outreach event that would happen in the following week and be both creative and risky. we decided to set up a comfortable picnic area on the grassy knoll by EVK as a way of showing our love to kids who had midterms and just needed some time to relax and hang out and eat.
then we went back to take photos and hang out on the beach for the last time and board the boat
which was barf central :( and involved paramedics. praying for that girl from fullerton! anyway

exhausting weekend, i studied a bit and then slept like a log -_- did laundry and showered and YET ben and matt still visited after i fell asleep with campus by the sea cookies. DANG IT I MISSED IT :(

yah. so basically FALL CON was amazing :) and i miss it a lot! but i had a lot of work to catch up with so i had my first official midterm this morning which i thought went pretty well and i finished early. i also had a paper due the class before that but FIRST i woke up at 8 to shower and then go to this AMAZING american apparel sale across the street and scored two hoodies for less than 30 <3
yes. after that we commenced our outreach and i met a lot of cool people on that grassy knoll :)
and thenn jour190 class and finallly! i get to rest today. haven't been home since 8AM :( almost 10 hours D:
bible study tonight with pizookies :))

God is good all the time, i'm so thankful for TCF and the good times and friends i've made so far and i'm looking forward to what He has in store for USC :)
