3 weeks

it's finally starting to wind down as i am finally making a mad scramble to fit in all that hawaii has to offer me. i don't know if i'll be back next summer... or have the opportunity with the same people to do things like this again.

for all we know, such is life... whatcha gonna do about it?!

so i've had the strangest encounter today.


a girl that i've met through a friend, but never "officially met" started talking with me and eventually the subject got to the opposite gender (i find that's often the case w/ ppl our age, right?). so anyway, we share vague stories of how we liked a guy who didn't like us back and how to get over it. i shared with her how i got over a guy i liked last year... how i knew God had someone better for me... how it was "time to sing a new song"... and how i eventually got over him.

the strange thing was that she was trying to get over the same guy that i got over.

yeah.

strange. but i really believe it was of the Lord for that to happen. i didn't share with her that i was one of many that used to like him too (that would've made matters worse). but i shared with her how i got over him, and the things i've realized.

it was then i figured out that i had really arrived. in that time and since then, i hadn't truly realized how much i matured in my relationships w/ the opposite sex.

lately, i've been unwelcomely pursued by one of my co-workers.

it's a good thing i'm leaving so soon.
