All these sermon notes posts (they’re not that good or informative anyway) recently and nothing about me and my life (as if its interesting at all, right?). Well, here’s to narcissism. AND to all the people who want to know what’s been up, but haven’t had the chance to actually ask.

Last week (or nearing 2 weeks soon) ago I had a mini-health emergency. This was in 3 parts.

Dot Those Eyes on Monday

My optical sensors (ie. eyes) have always been in gradual repair since I was in elementary school, and the littlest things bother me. Of course, when I started seeing a small black dot relocating to wherever I focused my eyes, my initial thought was to ignore it (under the impression I was just stressed and that it would go away), and eventually if it persisted go check it out maybe. I have never, ever made an emergency eye appointment for immediate screening before, and sure enough I had to do that. It was snowing that day, and it was great that the snow actually stopped as I headed out to get my optics checked.

After probably one of the most tiring eye checks involved pupil dilation, my optometrist concluded that I had a hole in my left eye due to elongation (growth) and lack of eye gel-fluid to fill that hole. Instead, the hole is filled with water, and light entering my eye at oblique angles will result in the small black dot. Something that small didn’t need surgery, since it was such a small/single problem, but if any more holes started to appear I’d have to go in again and maybe go under the knife. Best option at this point? Live and cope with it.

Crash the System on Wednesday

On Wednesday, I was supposed to head over to a student research info session to learn more about the upcoming research projects (to which I still have to apply…). My body had other plans and decided to get real sick, real fast. One of those sudden immune system crashes we’ve all seen me have before. Probably should have worn a hat when it was frigid. Best option at that point? Sleep it off.

Bleep Bloop on Friday

I needed an ultrasound. I got an ultrasound. Negative results (which is good, but doesn’t answer any questions I have). That is all.

Upcoming week

My grandma will be staying over at our place for the next week or two. It’s great that we’ll have a chance to talk with her and bond! Aside from cooking breakfast and playing my twing-twang music for her (I wouldn’t know what to play other than the stuff I usually play), I’m not quite sure what I could really say. What could we really talk about, with the semi-language barrier? Sure, I can hold a conversation, but I’m not 100% sure I can rep the gospel to her. Its been difficult to preach the gospel to my grandparents, what with all the ancestor worship and horrible horrible horrible hypocritical Christian lifestyles of some close people in their lives, but now that my grandpa has passed away for a few months, are there any opened roads? Grandma wouldn’t be here in Canada right now, that’s for sure. Best option: All things through prayer; courage through the Spirit; only God changes hearts
