jan 19: i went snowboarding for the first time ever! i went with sean, esh and christine. it was challenging and very painful, but i'm glad i did it. i felt such a sense of accomplishment when i managed to sorta master the heel-toe thing and stayed upright for more than 2 seconds! here's a picture of me, taken by christine. she actually has videos of me too... need to get them from her sometime.
jan 31/feb 1: watched the australian open men's final at bryan's, which i actually managed to blog about. woot. since then we've figured out why nadal won.
feb 5: i went for my first ever basketball game at mac court with vania. it was a women's game against washington state, the crowd was kinda sparse, and we lost... but it was still fun! and it was nice to catch up with vania. =)
feb 13: i got a sweet valentine's day present in the mail. i don't think i'm allowed to say what it was, but it had to do with a penguin and a marshmallow. lol. later that day i went for the isa's winter formal (picture of esh and i below, taken by bryan). the last time i wore the heels that i wore that night was at last year's winter formal! got stalked by a creepy frat dude in a freaky mask while walking home with kanako, esh and sean.
feb 14: i worked with a classmate on a group project, and i actually enjoyed it because it was a real collaboration. janelle, ney ney, kanako, sean, esh, christine and i went to watch swan lake that night! it was amazing... the costumes, the music, the dancing, the 32 fouettes en tournant. we went for prince puckler's ice cream after... perfect end to the night. =)
feb 16: i went for a bible study that is held every week by my church for the first time. i feel like i'm finally becoming more a part of that community, which i'm happy about. it took me long enough! an old couple talked to me after mass a couple of weeks ago, and they said they'd like to have me over for breakfast or dinner one day... they were really sweet. i've also decided to go on a mission trip with them over spring break to yakima, washington to build houses with habitat for humanity. it was a tough decision because the other choice i had was to go on a road trip with sean, esh and david... on our last break together.
feb 18: i went to see an academic adviser, a psychology adviser and a special ed adviser to make sure that i'm on track to graduate in the spring, and i am. 17 credits to go... which i register for tomorrow. my last term at the u of o. later that day i went grocery shopping with janelle and dolly, and then we had mcdonald's for dinner lol. played tennis that night with bryan, bryan's friend val, and christine. or tried to at least.
feb 19: janelle came to work with me to take pictures for an assignment... so now i have some very nice pictures of me with the kids! yay!
feb 20: went to onyx house, another christian house about two blocks away, for their friday service. played apples to apples after and then watched high school musical 3. lol.
feb 21: got lots and lots of sleep, and watched a japanese movie called train man with my housemates and some of their friends. the movie was... different. but it was fun!
feb 22: it rained today. like really rained. not the nonsense snain (sneezing rain... cos it sprays) we usually get. the type of rain you can actually hear hitting your window, that you can fall asleep to.
time to go for badminton!
