Hmmm.. I decided to take a break from writing my ethics paper and write a blog on my birthday. Oh yes, I do live an exciting life. Homework on my birthday! woot! Anyways, it has been a good week! We had one extra day of holidays and it's definitely needed to catch up on sleep and get a head-start on writing my final term paper. In the midst of all this business, I also official received my first land title and also got a new knee-brace after I lost my old one (yes stupid me).
Yet, that is probably not the best thing that has happened. My hockey team, the Calgary Flames, have clawed their way back into playoff contention! It has been a gut wrenching couple of weeks as I followed them as they fought through a post Olympic haze and went on a roller coaster ride though wins and losses. Sometimes I want to kick those multimillionaires in the tail end myself to get em going (mostly cuz im just jealous).
Reflecting on this weekend, I should mention that it is honour to share this 25th birthday with Easter falling on the same weekend. There is no other way to make it more memorable than to celebrate this milestone remembering the sacrifice that Jesus made to allow us, as humanity, the chance to embrace the grace and forgiveness of Jesus and be accepted as God's children with the promise of eternal life in heaven! At lasts week's church service at Centre Street Church, we watched a dramatic presentation of God's "Love Story" for us. It served as a very vivid reminder that while we often don't deserve it, God's love for us is unparalleled and we just have to choose to surrender to Him. During this service, a quartet also covered Point of Grace's - "The Great Divide". It's an awesome oldie from the 90s (yes, as I get older I can use the term 'oldie' haha). You should youtube it.
Back to my paper now.. but I have a sudden craving for a birthday Peter's Drive-In Milkshake. It's unfortunate they are closed now >.<
