any given sunday

worry. it's such an interesting concept when you think about it. why do people do it? what good does it really do?

i'll admit it. i've spent my share of time worrying about this and that, wondering about all the "what if's" and "remember when's" in life. why did i do that? what was i thinking? how could she have treated me like that?

when it all boils down to it, worrying about the past is useless. in Jesus's words, "who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?"

unfortunately, i have also been known to be a worry warrior when it comes to the unknown future. what college will i go to? what if i fail that big test tomorrow? what if i never decide on a major?

i used to snicker when i was a little kid whenever someone in the Bible was referred as as "O you of little faith!" i thought to myself, "how could these people not have full trust in God, this same God that has always been faithful and just in the past?"

and yet here i am, sitting here worrying about such insignificant things.

today pastor gideon gave a message on worrying. it definitely hit home for me. it was so humbling to finally realize that worrying in and of itself is basically a statement to God saying that i don't have full trust in Him. sad, isn't it? He's the Creator of the universe, and yet i can't entirely trust Him to help me do my best on a government midterm.

anyhow, my weekend has just been awesome. let's see, friday night after watching some horrid play that was required for TD301, i watched simon birch with some other freshmen + andy yu at san jac.

saturday woke up at 3:30 and had lunch at chipotle with titus, albert, derek, and elise. then hung out at titus's place until cbs talent show. *sigh if for whatever reason you couldn't make it to remix, im sorry to tell you this, but you missed out. big time. start praying and asking God to rewind time back to yesterday so you could be there. all the acts were simply incredible. i am still amazed. afterwards, a group of 23 freshmen + andy yu (dejavu?) headed over to kirby lane, where we enjoyed a nice meal together outside on the deck.

now onto today. after church, titus, albert, derek, elise, and i headed over to EZ's, where we met up with meson, patty, stephanie, and a couple other people. following lunch and a quick nap, i walked over to gregory for my intramural game against the STUBS. i sat out for the first 5 minutes, but then on the 3rd play of the game that i was on the court, i stepped on timmy's foot while going full speed and rolled my ankle. i sat out for the remainder of the 1st half and decided to go back in at halftime. i laced up my shoes extra tight to support my ankle, but i still couldn't shoot jumpshots on it.

long story short, i played terrible, and with 10 seconds left, simon hit the game-winning shot for the STUBS. what a punk. haha but a big thanks to everyone who came to watch the game =) you guys are the best! sorry i did so bad, but when it comes to basketball, i really don't have any self-control. i guess in retrospect, i shouldn't have played on my ankle at all, but hey, it's all good. it was still a good game, right?

anyways, next game is the important one. whoever wins next week will get the final playoff spot for the CBS league. oh, the pressure =P

so presently i am sitting in front of my computer, nearly crippled because of my left ankle. i have NEVER hurt my ankle this bad. dang, i guess im not wolverine after all =(
