| i love the other, less-known side of cedar campus--mariner's cove... i spent 6 straight
weeks of fun-derful children's program teacherhood living in the ol'
windward cabin with luke, sexy matthew, our dear late 6'6" caleb
michael jordan--the joker ("there's only two of them in a deck"), nate
fish, spain's very own braulio, captain fun ben schaefer, ma and of
course, my hometown friend captain gorgeous kyle, k-double, k-dubs, the
ace of hearts. working at mariner's cove is how i met rob and gayle and
their four beautiful children, ace of spades ryan smith, the son of the
legend himself, jerry smith and his wife nancy... not to mention the lovely crew girls! how i miss them all.
the facilities...
i love the continued winnie the pooh theme after the floating
bear: owl's nest, the hunny pot, kanga's room, etc. taylor lodge is
just as grand as willoughby, and the vball is right on the beach. the
long walkway has already supported the footsteps of growing children
and the walking canes of the elderly for years. beforehand, i'd only
seen the back part of the taylor lodge as i cleaned for turnover after
CFW 2004, but since then...
in general...
-watching the aurora borealis and eerily and noiselessly or a shooting
star leave a brilliant shining line across outer space for 3 seconds
before fading away...
-seeing the wild side of sue vaal (no more than 11 mph on cedar campus drive)...
-playing vball and its other iterations, making or
judging sand castles (three blind mice!!!), or just sitting on that long wooden deck and
digging your toes into the warm sand on the beach...
-figuring out how to drive elizabeth's 1991 volkswagen stick-shift and then breaking it on the freeway...
-legitimately beating andy vaal and chuck in foosball...
-watching B&G kill rabid bats with a shovel...
-making the Kids' kiosK a fantastic dream realized...
-breaking curfew with Kyle and spending 6 hours doing dishes in punishment...
-meeting and playing intense foosball with Mack Stiles and his family... then reading his book...
-making crew road-trips up to the Soo theater and watching the latest movies for $5...
-Team ACE Crewsaders beating the campers in basketball...
-roving through the woods to mariner's cabin and making faces at the animal exhibits...
-sitting on the porch with a bunch of parents, watching their kids, reading, chatting, or being silent together... i love it
-doing Turnover every Saturday morning...
in windward cabin...
-my bosses
elizabeth and abby reading us pooh bedtime stories from the outside
through our windows, or us guys serenading the neighboring girls through theirs...
-making late night tea or fruit punch-lemonade at the lodge and then walking back through the woods with so little light...
-eating twizzlers and 5-lb bags of gummi bears...
-stealing pitchers of
iced tea/fruit punch...
-playing lord of the rings risk on our incredibly quiet make-shift felt board table...
-reading c.s.
lewis and kyle's batman comics simultaneously...
-taking a "kobe" or a
"shaq" in our bathroom... you can guess which one's which...
-buying a microwave from the Cedarville thrift store for $10 and then
making popcorn or ramen in our room for a late night snack...
-drinking, washing and showering
with non-eggy water...
summer on the other side was a time and place of some of my fondest
memories for me. i wish you could have been there to share them with
me. chapter camp will be a mixing of two different worlds, two
different histories, in my mind.

| Apt. 3: 1
Apt. 6: 3
i'm
giving them 1 measly point because i did have to change my shirt... but
maybe i should give myself another point for completely taking over
their apartment single-handedly. also, i scored 519,709 in photohunt on
March 26th (in case you forgot).
but overall, their so-called
"surprise" was met by an even bigger surprise. we won. i mean,
seriously. what war general doesn't anticipate retaliation?
but i applaud you three girls for planning such a fun evening (and thanks for the ice cream). and the other Apt. 6? shame on you for aiding and abetting the non-6ers!
*edit*
the other Apt. 6: 0.2
a mere tenth of a point for each of the two traitors
to the apt. 6 cause! maybe it was out of anger for our too infrequent
visits, but by all rights i think i visited the other 6 more than the
Apt. 3 residents did combined, not even including the body worship
sessions.
anyway, jenny has a point... i think brian
has probably visited all three of our apartments more frequently than
any of the actual residents visited the other two. how shameful. and irene? she should have gotten hit in the face with a pillow. somehow...
Apt. Brian: 47
brian wins.
*end edit*

| sometimes, you just gotta brag about it...
519,709
...solid as a rock. i wish jennyeh were there to witness it.
count it. 26 March 2006. i'll bring it every month, baby.

| so. after more than a year's addiction to a ridiculous movie promo
game, "elektra ninja assassin," my good friend dan sa finally got me
the elektra movie for my birthday. and we proceeded to watch it this
night.
quote of the night:
dan sa, in the middle of the movie: "I'm so disappointed, this movie isn't as bad as I thought it was going to be."
honorable mention (when would you ever say this ever?):
jenny yeh: "So, if all of those snakes get killed, then that guy won't have any tattoos anymore."
anyway, dan's right. it wasn't that bad of a movie. yes, it was a bad
movie, but it was no second coming of "catwoman" (which, i assure you,
i will never take any
worthless time watching unless paid 20+ dollars or am forced under pain
of death). speaking of bad movies, i'm waiting to see this "invincible"
brian and dan keep talking about. apparently it's a doosy.
____________________________________________________
to boot (haha, i said "to boot"), i liked my birthday. it was a great
day, from before i went to bed this morning to burning breakfast with
Joyce to Knox care packages to crisler cleanup to pizza house half
pound/big as a house burgers to the movie to now, here, on xanga. i love you. thank you for your calls, emails, IMs, hugs, kisses (NOT chang), signing (chang, irene).
____________________________________________________
i need to grow up =) Jesus, my Lord and my God, thank You for taking
care of me, even through the times i've strayed so far and away... from
You, the author and perfecter of my faith, the reason i live, the
reason i love. You are my joy everlasting.

this is not at all how we thought it was supposed to be
we had so many plans for you, we had so many dreams
but now you've gone away, and left us with the memory of your smile
and nothing we can say, and nothing we can do
can take away the pain, the pain of losing you
but we can cry with hope, we can say good-bye with hope
'cause we know our good-bye is not the end, oh no
and we can grieve with hope, 'cause we believe with hope
there's a place where we'll see your face again
never have i known anything so hard to understand
and never have i questioned more the wisdom of God's plan
but through the cloud of tears, i see the Father smile, and say, "well done"
and i imagine you where you wanted most to be
seeing all your dreams come true, 'cause now you're home and now you're free
we have this hope as an anchor
'cause we believe that everything God's promised us is true
we wait with hope
we ache with hope
we say good-bye with hope
