meetings, meetings :)

meetings, meetings, and more meetings! :)

lol, i don't think i've ever had so many places to go to in one day before.

9:00 - sound (a/v) meeting
9:30 - worship practise
12:30 - picking next year's cabinet meeting
1:00 - 24/7 meeting
7:00 - pneumatos meeting
8:00 - rebel worship meeting

6 in one day! of course i couldn't go to all of that, cuz then i'd be a super hero or something. i was present at four of them more or less, so here's what happened.

sound (a/v) meeting - i'm glad that silas was super pro-active with this. if he had not written his proposal thing, nothing would have happened and we'd still have the same gripes on the issues. but now, we know what's going on from both sides. and although some issues remain unresolved, that's okay. cuz now we are communicating with one another. there's so many problems when there's no communication. hmmmmmmmm. let that be a lesson to us! i'm hoping that these changes will all be put into effect soon! it'll be awesome having the small mixer not being used and what have you. finally, things are changing!!! :) yeah baby.

worship practise went okay. seemed kind of empty, though we were missing like half the team. man, i haven't lead worship in so long. i don't know what i'm doing anymore. haven't even really prayed over the set too much yet. *sigh* well, i'm praying that God's name would be glorified and magnified in service tomorrow despite my unworthiness. hopefully tomorrow's practise is better :) let's hope everyone is there. lol.

after that, i drove lydia home. i was gonna go home and start catching up on some reading (for summer school) but she wanted to catch up. how can i refuse that? haven't talked to her in like ages. it's been so long. too long. we had a good chat, just like old times. we should really talk on a more consistent basis. always so much to talk about, especially church stuff. which confuses me some more. what to do about markham? what to do. one part of me just wants to get away for a bit. take a break. cuz i think i need it? (maybe i don't know what i need, i probably don't) it's just. i dunno. i'm not learning. and like, what's it going to be like again next year. no one my age. everyone's gonna be gone, like this time it's for real. EVERYONE's gone. *shrugs* anyhow, the other part of me is stay. so much work to be done at markham. but is that a good enough reason? jer left. i don't want to leave. i just want to calm down for a while. just take it easy somewhere and learn and grow and be nurtured. is that really so wrong?

so i get back home, grab lunch, then it's off for the next meeting.

24/7 - interesting group of people, of course i know half of them. but the other people i don't really know. i wonder what i'm supposed to do there, i mean justin is the man already, so i can't do that much! or maybe i could? who knows. i'll still go for the time being, seeing if i could be useful somehow. lol. it was kinda nice hearing like views from NEW people. maybe i miss meeting other Christians and seeing how God is impacting their life. i seem to not meet anyone new anymore. maybe that's the reason i should go to campus fellowship. meet other believers? i thought it was kind of pointless before, but i'm seeing the reason now. we'll see what happens next week. :) it's been a while where i've been with such a talented group of musicians, in a way it reminds me of past TC worship teams. lol. same kind of atmosphere.

so now it's about 5 or so. i get home. time to do some textbook reading. i'm trying to commit everything i do for the glory of God, that includes my school work. i've never been able to read textbook stuff cuz i'd just fall asleep. not today though. stay awake, and read through a good chunk of material. :) that was great! :) and soon enoug, it was time for the rebel worship time! :)

rebel worship - we all got to my place. it was interesting. for some reason, it always seems to be awkward having meetings with these guys. why? they're my peers, we just hang out and stuff and joke around all the time. so it was kinda awkward waiting for people to show up and stuff. i have no idea why. we're all like pretty good friends and stuff. it really makes no sense. anyhow, maybe i should have prepared the meeting a little more or something, i had an outline in my head. maybe that's why jer always tells me to make proposals and do this and that. it makes sense, i'm just lazy. bad me. well, aside from things going off track here or there, we got a lot of things settled tonight, so that was awesome! justin came out with like the man's idea for the theme. we all contributed ideas and points and stuff that really stirred up discussion and ideas and what have you. it was awesome. i'm so excited for august 31st. i think it's gonna be a great time of worship/prayer/reflection. if we could just get anson aboard, that'd be great. :) maybe the team should hang out sometime? just to develop more friendships and stuff. i mean, i guess we're all not that close, and perhaps we should be quite close? i dunno.

well, it's 12:30 am now. tomorrow is church. well today is church. i have to get up early so i'll be there on time :) haha. after i gave andy so much flack for being on time, i guess i should be on time :)

kinda worried about my midterm exam. i'll leave that with God and just study and stuff tomorrow. g'nite!
