UBC Is Resting Today

"Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!" (Psalm 46:10, ESV)
"你們要休息，要知道我是神！我必在外邦中被尊崇，在遍地上也被尊崇。" (詩篇46:10)

Today is the day-off of my dreams for ages! I did nothing but relaxing! Well, because of class cancellation (severe snowstorm) and power outage. I really thank God since He knows exactly what I need - I need rest after a marathon of performances. So He allowed heavy snow, leading to class cancellation and power outage, which makes me totally out of reach from work. Although, it causes a lot of troubles to the city. :-P

Thanks to the chefs, for they provide us food despite the snowstorm. A big bow to you!

So I played lego with him for the whole day. Good bonding time. I thank God for this too since we wouldn't have such a long time together if it wasn't a day off for the whole school. Anyways, I discover occasionally we do say things to each other that shows our honesty but not entirely consideration. It gets to me sometimes. I need to pray for understanding since I know you don't mean to hurt me in a personal sense. *Sigh* Why so worried le? I'm only friends to you!

I still need to pray for utter submission and obedience to God's plans, or else I'll keep worrying, knowing God has already given me the Promise. I still need to pray for the courage to face her. One day they are still together, one day I still have to face her. I have tried so hard to keep casual friends with her. But no, whenever I see her around (no matter she is around him or not), I have to back off since I just can't stand it. I like him, and she has tricked me! And she doesn't feel guilty at all! What kind of friend is this! Anyways, Lord, honestly, I hope everything will turn okay soon (no matter what way it turns to) ... I hate to always back off from people like this.

Okay, I'll stop venting. Last night's performance went all right. Everything was held together; not very tightly, but I was sure the audience was impressed. I was kind of worried about the conductor since he had to put one of his hands on the music stand to support himself; I was afraid he was going to fall! The snow was heavy and so my friends who came to watch me and I took a cab home. The taxi driver drove at 30km/h all the way. The rehearsals prior to this performance was brutal ... not because the music was hard nor because the conductor was short-tempered, but because of the disorganization and irresponsibility from the person who "hired" me to do this gig. He just dumped the music to the percussionists and let everything hang in the air! Because of our ignorance to what to do, it made the section look really bad!!!! *Sigh* Oh well, I played for the music and the conductor.

Classes are resuming tomorrow ... another school day around the clock.
