waiting is good

Wait

wait for the bus
wait for a seat
wait for traffic
wait in line

everyone hates to wait
we want the fastest internet
the fastest computer
the fastest car
the fastest way to the destination
we dislike local roads
and love highways
we are impatient people

but God wants us to wait
to wait for his reply
to wait for his answer

it's hard
esp when we are used to having everything available when we want them
and being super efficient with what we do

He wants us to be patient
because
"blessed are those who wait for him" Isa. 30:18
so be patient
and wait

I AM A SOPHOMORE

今年好像沒上年好玩
可能是上一年覺得什麼都很新奇吧

好多的改變

跟他 (她) 們沒那麼熟了
是好是壞？
還不知道。

覺得和神的關系遠了
想要回到以前那 desperate for God 的我

課比上年的要難
readings 多了
papers 多了
社團多了

認識了不少新生
每一個都有點呆呆的
有點像上年的我

不知道神今年要給我什么樣的挑戰
我 ready 了嗎？

26 hrs

我在昨天早上6 點會到學校了。
從香港到學校花了大概 26 個小時吧。
在國泰的飛機上完全沒睡，
到了三藩市機場被通知 美國航空 （American Airlines）晚班，延遲 1 小時飛。
在三藩市機場小睡了 30 分鐘，上了飛機到芝加哥已經11：45了。
本來是要坐12：10am 的巴士回學校的，
可是來不及了，所以多付了 USD10 坐3：00am 的。
美國航空 （American Airlines）真的很糟糕！
他們晚到，還覺得是理所當然的事。服務態度非常的爛！

回到學校就忙著整理東西，到現在都還沒整理完，因為要團契集訓。
我的手機 sim 卡不見了，會這兩天去補一張的了。

不知道是不是美國住久了
奧運比賽只要沒有臺灣的時候
我都在替美國加油
希望美國快打贏中國
Michael Phelps 游泳也實在是太棒了！
昨天和今天的接力賽都好讚！
阿不過有臺灣的時候當然就是支持臺灣啦
今天中華臺北棒球打贏荷蘭，爽！！
中華臺北棒球隊！加油 加油 加油！！！

feel so disconnected from uiuc ppl
not only disconnected
it feels like i dont know those ppl anymore
wonder wat will happen when everyone graduates
everyone goes in diff direction
doesnt care bout wat the others r doing
maybe still contact ea other for the first 2 years
then disappear and then
meet once every 10 years

these 2 months r esp hard, spritually
hanging out with non christians is so much more relaxing
being a non christian is so much more relaxing
its like the burden of the mission is gone
i can take off the label now
