Shock!!

One of the biggest things that I care about is hockey and about my team, the Calgary Flames. I woke up this morning to this headline: "The Calgary Flames have traded Dion Phaneuf to the laughs (oopps. leafs)". Talk about a shocking morning! The players coming back are interesting Stajan, White, Mayers, and Hagman. I would have thought we could have gotten more! Im still digesting this trade.


... still in shock..

1 - 0 in my ACAL exhibition career! haha

Well, this weekend was the Futsal tournament hosted by St. Mary's at Ambrose (ironic, yes!) haha. The best part was being able to play in an exhibition friendly because St. Mary's team didn't show! The better part of it was that I won and now I can retire with a perfect record.. w00t!

Pictures: Futsal Pics, more Futsal Pics.

Matthew 6 - Giving to the Needy

Here is a thought provoking question: How do we explain this Bible passage?

Matthew 6


Giving to the Needy

1"Be careful not to do your 'acts of righteousness' before men, to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.

2"So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. 3But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, 4so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. - BibleGateway.

How should we respond to this verse? 

New Toy!!

Yes, the long awaited time has come! I have finally purchased an iPhone! It has got to be the most useful gadget ever! This makes me sound uber geeky, but I definitely spent most of Saturday afternoon checking out all the apps and functions of my new iPhone. Oh yes, text messenging has also been streamlined with the phone saving all previous conversations :)

Before I sound like an Apple employee (yes, i recommend Apple for all your mobile needs ;) ), here are some news articles that caught my eye.

1) Albertan Fish is apparently inedible.

It is amazing how people will pay top dollar to listen to people's opinion. Perhaps I should think of something controversial and make money off it. In the meantime, I'm going to keep enjoying inedible fish and mad cow ;)

2) Good news for students!

The recent recession might have brought a world of trouble for people in general, but finally some good! Let's hope this turns out right. It's about time there was a freeze!

One more thing, I now have possession of my house. However, Enmax (the power company in Calgary) apparently has either not processed my utilities account and power was cut off while I was showing off the house to friends and making nachos! Bizarre!

P.S. Our 4-year Bachelor of Business Administration is here! Finally a legit degree! haha

Oh well, I'm off! It is almost class time! \\ // / (live long and prosper! haha)

New Semester!

Here we go again! The start of another exciting semester. It has been a great start so far! The weather is nice, classes are good, and I’m starting the last semester of my undergraduate postsecondary career (hopefully that is.. jk). I am definitely both excited and anxious as to what life after school would be like. It will definitely be interesting to consider life without school!

Athletics have also begun again for the new semester. Our teams are looking strong and ready to compete for top spots in the ACAL! Keep an eye out on my facebook for pictures of the many sporting events that go on! If you have missed it earlier, the volleyball championships held at Ambrose has been a huge success. http://www.danielyu.com/acalvball09 is where you can check out these pictures!

Classes have also been going well so far. This semester, I am enrolled in: Intermediate Financial Accounting, Business in the European Union, Ethics, and Business Issues from a Christian Perspective. While all are upper level classes and require lots of work, they are all extremely exciting. The EU course is also a prerequisite for a travel study to Europe at the end of April!

Aside from school, things have been going quite well! The most exciting thing is having a house to call my own! Yes.. a house, well that and massively in debt. Oh well. I shall put up some pictures when I get a chance to, I haven’t been able to get the right lens yet.
