tis is bad. especially since this week is mid-terms. oh hallelujah :( awesome shizzaz.
sooo...this few days/weeks haven't been much except for the occasional texas-hold'em or poker game with the girls (jill and michelle) which was fun cos we ran out of poker chips so we used food instead..like the old animal cookies and sweets cos jill's church sent her a care package full of sweets and goodies (not very caring considering how sweets are bad for health and jill's a health nut anyway. so she didn't benefit from it at all. lol)
and then there was chinese take out night where the boys (mark, ben and zahari), the girls (maggie, kaleigh, jill, sydney) and myself ordered 50 dollars worth of chinese food and ate to our great delight! yummy. free delivery too. ain't that awesome?!?! one of these days we're heading out to sushi zen to get good sushi. :D
went to the mall with michelle and jill on saturday..or was it friday...wadeva. i've lost track of time. haha. and it was pretty fun. the 2 of them shopped while i just wandered around being the usual shopping me. haha. michelle was like u sure u dun want anything and i'm like uh-huh...i dun shop. and she's like oh no...we need to change that...she stared at me and her fashion brain started ticking away and she zipped me around the shop and got me this dress and a pair of UBER HIGH BOOTS ON UBER HIGH HEELS. i am now in love with boots cos they are gorgeous thanks to that girl. she is now my fashionista consultant. hahaha. she and jill will give me a makeover and teach me make up and they are excited about it cos i'm like their little doll that they could play with..and i'm like them in....what....5th grade?!?!? i am stuck in my childhood. haha. i'm such a lil kid! nonetheless...i am coming home the same way as i used to be in my wonderful jeans and comfy shirts. hahahaha. i have no money to invest in clothes. oh ya...i walked into victoria secrets with them and i got cute undies. hahaha. i can't believe i found them cute...i got pink undies now. hahahaa. oh no...what is gloria becoming?!?!?! rest assured. i am still who i used to be....i think ;p (even if some people think i have an american accent now......hmmm...)
anyhows...then there's bible study and cell grp which has been awesome. it truly is a rock-tumbling session (rock tumbling is where u put unpolished rocks in a rock tumbler and you shake it such that they rub against one another and polish each other). i'm not much good for a rubbing and polishing of other stones cos i just sit there like a sponge. inactive and simply absorbing. the girls in bible study and cell group are uber inspiring as they share insights and how God has spoken into their lives and stuff. i've been utterly blessed with a wonderfully enthusiastic cell leader - jenna. uber sweet and uber happy :D gotta love that girl. and then there's wonderful joe who cooks us wonderful meals every thursday night and he's really passionate about what he does as well. he reminds me of the coach in facing the giants..i keep expecting him to say "take a knee" when we are going to pray..but nah..we don't. joe is a wonderful man...courtney is a lucky lassie :)
i am thankful for all my friends here. the occasional movie nights where we sit in my room and watch a movie on my 20" mac screen or just watch friends on the china youtube - youku or smth.. while we do our work :) that's what happiness is. doing work together in a grp so we can all complain about how lousy we all are (when in truth...we aren't. we are just trying to be humble/fishing for compliments.) lol. welcome to art school where everyone thinks/pretends to think that they suck when in truth, they know/want to know that they are amazing.
i must confess...i am one of them. oh we horrible artist. what i make makes who i am. this ish bad. i must not let my work rule my identity and self worth. bad bad bad. utter rambles. i am stuffed up my head with a cold. forgive me!
