Don't Waste Your Life

Life's a journey - don't forget to unpack.

Where it all meets

Perhaps then, it is at the cross of Christ that we find what we crave for most deeply in this world. Love and sacrifice, justice and mercy, faithfulness and grace. It is at the cross of Christ that all these meet, and if we dig deep enough into the core of our being, we will find that these are the things we will live and die for. - Me

To you, my reader. :)

There, look on me, so that you may not praise me beyond what I am; there, believe me, not others, about myself; there, attend to me and see what I have been in myself, through myself. - St Augustine

NZ Prep

Hmm.. been looking through websites.. and i've made up a short preliminary things I want to do in NZ.. and i hope i will do these things no matter whether there are people doing it with me or not.. haha..

- take a train ride across NZ alone: it's time i spent time with myself and God.
- take coach rides everywhere
- watch e sunrise and sunset at the beach near my apartment at least once a week.
- visit Matamata: the site of Hobbiton in the LOTR trilogy
- visit the LOTR site in Christchurch where the final battle of the LOTR movie was filmed.
- visit Arthur's Pass, where the final battle of Narnia was filmed.
- dive at Poor Knights Marine Reserve: where apparently i can see stingrays and more. Apparently it's has remnants of volcanoes that erupted '11 million years' ago, and is rated one of the top 10 diving sites in the world.
- attend Sunday jazz services at Christchurch Cathedral
- join the UC Navs (maybe for winter camp?)
- attend Riccarton Community Church where the emphasis is on youths and serving the poor and disadvantaged.
- hang out w Rebecca at jazz pubs in central Canterbury and drink (muahahaha)
- attend a Parachute Band concert!!
- er.. Dr Sim asked me to visit social service agencies in NZ: one of each kind - youth, family, disadvantaged.. haha.. will i?

Will I be able to do all this? If I scrimp and save, and eat bread all e time, perhaps i can!

weeee!
