summer lessons

life is moving too fast for me to keep up in the blog world. Since i like lists, here's my current life in list form

current initiatives
- red life stage leadership @ church - retreat prep, vball tournament in the works
- online training for undergrad thesis project
- finishing up 2 manuscripts at work. seeing if i can do another
- looking into applications for grad schools (first deadline is nov)
- application to osap
- housing arrangements
- softball (2-0 babyyy)

learned lessons in a few sentences
- what you complain about other people can often be found in yourself
- sometimes god gives you difficult people to become a more patient person; and sometimes he also gives you difficult people to realize what NOT to do
- when you object to a collective decision, you're assuming you are the sole person who is correct
- choose your battles - no one likes a complainer; or a micromanager
- obedience is freedom - so true

still to dos
- amazing race @ church; coffee house @ church
- explore downtown toronto
- buy clothes with more colour (realized most of my wardrobe consists of navy blue, black and grey)
