Got to spend time with family in toronto, last chance before exams begin, and made it back to london for sunday.  What more could i ask for?.. XD&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next week theres Unity ball on thursday night and LCAC Christmas dinner on saturday night... so its gonna be quite a busy week... gonna need to becareful with my time for studying, since i really need to do well for finals.  And now not just for academic's sake, i guess i just have a new motivation and reason to try even harder... ^^&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recently been so blessed by men's cell and friends.  Just being able to completely open as brothers (and sisters) in Christ...  Not to mention all the reminders i've gotten.  I still have a long way to go, but I know i'm headed in the right direction...  Thank you Lord!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I cant wait for christmas... done exams, no school, good food, seeing family and friends again... Though sorta mixed feelings about it, since london's more a home to me now than Toronto... i already know the 2.5 weeks will seem like so long...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Any ideas of things to do during christmas  break lemme know!! ^^&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Till then.. Study hard!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;P.S. just a song i thought i'd share...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;"In Her Eyes"&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;By: Josh Groban&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She stares through my shadow&lt;br /&gt;She sees something more&lt;br /&gt;Believes there's a light in me&lt;br /&gt;She is sure&lt;br /&gt;And her truth makes me stronger&lt;br /&gt;Does she realize&lt;br /&gt;I awake every morning&lt;br /&gt;With her strength by my side&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am not a hero&lt;br /&gt;I am not an angel&lt;br /&gt;I am just a man&lt;br /&gt;Man who's trying to love her&lt;br /&gt;Unlike any other&lt;br /&gt;In her eyes I am&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This world keeps on spinning&lt;br /&gt;Only she steals my heart&lt;br /&gt;She's my inspiration&lt;br /&gt;She's my northern star&lt;br /&gt;I don't count my possession&lt;br /&gt;All I call mine and give her completely&lt;br /&gt;To the end of all time&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am not a hero&lt;br /&gt;I am not an angel&lt;br /&gt;I am just a man&lt;br /&gt;Man who's trying to love her&lt;br /&gt;Unlike any other&lt;br /&gt;In her eyes I am&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In her eyes I see the sky and all I'll ever need&lt;br /&gt;In her eyes time passes by and she is with me&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am not a hero&lt;br /&gt;I am not an angel&lt;br /&gt;I am just a man&lt;br /&gt;Man who's trying to love her&lt;br /&gt;Unlike any other&lt;br /&gt;In her eyes I am&lt;br /&gt;In her eyes I am&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32044281-116432077229602487?l=hiramc.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://hiramc.blogspot.com/feeds/116432077229602487/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32044281&amp;postID=116432077229602487' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32044281/posts/default/116432077229602487'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32044281/posts/default/116432077229602487'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://hiramc.blogspot.com/2006/11/exams-are-once-again-approaching.html' title=''/><author><name>Hiram Chong</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00757635233887260111</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32044281.post-116303168503683417</id><published>2006-11-08T18:55:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2006-11-08T19:21:25.050-05:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>All exams are done!!! yeah!! *fob pose* LoL&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, dont want to talk about biochem... it was brutal... i'm just glad its all over.&lt;br /&gt;Anyway sunday was my birthday...&lt;br /&gt;and my rents and my brother came in for dinner and to see the house...&lt;br /&gt;Had dinner at the Keg... mmmm sooo good...&lt;br /&gt;anyway... went out for drinks at 168 w/ steph and people.. (intentionally not remember someone's name because they forgot mine.. &gt;.&lt; LoL)&lt;br /&gt;anyway... it was good.. and monday night went to sushi, with steph, kchow and the house...&lt;br /&gt;Good times... XD&lt;br /&gt;Thanks steph n karen for the shirt and my "Silly" replica.. XD, and klam for cup.. haha... (and here i was trying to quit coffee)&lt;br /&gt;Anyway.. thanks to everyone.. ^^&lt;br /&gt;But mostly thank God for the family and friends i have.. =D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just found out today i dont have to do mu second ecology essay!! sooo good.. haha&lt;br /&gt;which gives me more time to catch up.. which i desperately need... &lt;br /&gt;knowing that in the blink of an eye finals will be around the corner, so i better get started with studying for those soon too... btw i hate biochem and physio right now because of the profs... :| omgsh... &gt;.&lt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;about all the things i was praying about before...&lt;br /&gt;I guess i could still use prayer for being more attentive to what God is saying to me..&lt;br /&gt;but i think i'm not as as anxious to know, more like i know God will guide me...&lt;br /&gt;so why stress, it doesn't matter if i know now or later because the final destination will be the same...  yay for sunday school and Psalm 23.. XP&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so i'm 20 now... everyone wont stop reminding me the fact that i'm old...&lt;br /&gt;though i guess compared to the CCAC crew i am kinda old.. though i dont understand everyone here at western.. since we're like or 2 apart at most...  but oh well.. its not like i mind.. XD&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Was just reflecting on my life-ish (well what i can remember anyway) and its just amazing how far God has brought... how much i've changed and how much God has used those around me to bless me...

"Is this what God had planned for me?"&lt;br /&gt;and... i can't really answer that... at least not with 100% certainty...&lt;br /&gt;But i guess God will answer my question in his time...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Back to biochem...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Hiram&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32044281-116251705788195459?l=hiramc.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://hiramc.blogspot.com/feeds/116251705788195459/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32044281&amp;postID=116251705788195459' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32044281/posts/default/116251705788195459'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32044281/posts/default/116251705788195459'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://hiramc.blogspot.com/2006/11/well-eco-and-evo-are-now-over-with.html' title=''/><author><name>Hiram Chong</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00757635233887260111</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32044281.post-116181873547112189</id><published>2006-10-25T19:16:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2006-10-25T19:25:35.483-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>So just finished my second exam...&lt;br /&gt;orgo was horrible...&lt;br /&gt;physio was alright i guess?&lt;br /&gt;Ecology saturday morning and Evolution Saturday night coming up... starting to stress since i have so little time for them... studied till around 7am last night.. and for some reason still not really tired now...  though i'm pretty sure if i continue this i'd be pushing my body too far...  oh wells.. just another 1.5weeks-ish to go then i'm done... ^^&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;duno what to do about certain things.. though i guess they're already getting better.. yet i still feel like an complete utter @$$..&lt;br /&gt;anyway... shouldnt be thinking about this.. needa focus on academics..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;back to nerding.. &gt;.&lt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Hiram&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32044281-116181873547112189?l=hiramc.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://hiramc.blogspot.com/feeds/116181873547112189/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32044281&amp;postID=116181873547112189' title='8 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32044281/posts/default/116181873547112189'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32044281/posts/default/116181873547112189'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://hiramc.blogspot.com/2006/10/so-just-finished-my-second-exam.html' title=''/><author><name>Hiram Chong</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00757635233887260111</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>8</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32044281.post-116131737598918089</id><published>2006-10-20T00:06:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2006-10-20T00:09:36.006-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>its been a while since i last blogged...&lt;br /&gt;guess life's been ok...&lt;br /&gt;too tired to rant about my last couple weeks now...&lt;br /&gt;but midterms coming up.. so mayb after that...&lt;br /&gt;My Exam Schedule:&lt;br /&gt;Oct 21 Organic Chem&lt;br /&gt;Oct 25 Physiology&lt;br /&gt;Oct 28 Ecology&lt;br /&gt;Oct 28 Evolution&lt;br /&gt;Nov 4 Biochem&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i need more hours in a day... that or the ability not to require sleep... though the amount of sleep i'm running on now is getting close...  sleep is SO overrated..

But friday at retreat it was like i almost completely recovered. kraziness!! XD Praise God!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Guess a thing or 2 that I really got from it was "love is rest".  which i never really thought about that way before.. more like the opposite actually, like theres some obligation to take some kind of action because of this love.  But i guess we should be able to find rest in love first, then out of love want to take action, rather than out of obligation.  Which sorta links into the 2nd thing, which was something along the lines of "God doesn't want you to serve, he wants your heart".  Which is sorta what i'd already been thinking about and what not for the last year or so.  So it was just a good confirmation kinda thing.  Guess i got some things to work out and try and refocus on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, worship was awesome, just having so many people worshiping together, praying together.  Even though it was thundering outside it was a completely different atmosphere inside.  God was working on so many people that night, like my housemates jeff, simon and andrew.  Brought me to tears, so many people have been praying for just this.  It was amazing to see everything praying for each other, laying of hands.  Glory be to God&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cant wait for men's cell and small groups to really start after thanksgiving.  Though that also means that midterms are just around the corner.. &gt;.&lt; so not ready for it.  I got quite a bit of studying to catch up on i think.. XD&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Had an interesting convo last night.  Which served as a well needed slap in the face (not literally) to wake me up.  i just keeping thinking " What the hell am i doing?"... its like i'm almost purposely walking down a path thats potentially "bad" and yet i wasnt stopping myself.  gah so angry with myself. though i'm still not sure what i'm going to do about it, i know that something needs to be done one way or another.  But anyway...  Dont know what I'd do without friends who would just "smack some sense into me" when i need it.&lt;br /&gt;thank God for them...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Hiram&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32044281-115988601550962636?l=hiramc.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://hiramc.blogspot.com/feeds/115988601550962636/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32044281&amp;postID=115988601550962636' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32044281/posts/default/115988601550962636'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32044281/posts/default/115988601550962636'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://hiramc.blogspot.com/2006/10/so-i-was-at-acf-retreat-from-friday-to.html' title=''/><author><name>Hiram Chong</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00757635233887260111</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32044281.post-115956111710481840</id><published>2006-09-29T16:17:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2006-09-29T16:18:37.116-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Going to to ACF Retreat Friday to Sunday!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;lets hope i dun get more sick...&lt;br /&gt;~weeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;(ok i'll stop)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Hiram&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32044281-115956111710481840?l=hiramc.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://hiramc.blogspot.com/feeds/115956111710481840/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32044281&amp;postID=115956111710481840' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32044281/posts/default/115956111710481840'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32044281/posts/default/115956111710481840'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://hiramc.blogspot.com/2006/09/going-to-to-acf-retreat-friday-to.html' title=''/><author><name>Hiram Chong</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00757635233887260111</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32044281.post-115932200862354501</id><published>2006-09-26T21:44:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2006-09-26T21:53:28.640-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>went to starfield concert last wednesday... was sooo good...&lt;br /&gt;kinda private concert like since there was only around 500 people... i kinda expected more...&lt;br /&gt;but it was good none the less...  steph ended up skipping lab to go to concert in the end...

Friday was sent to St. Issac, funny how i get to spend my last day there with Maggie... kinda wish i got to see my kids one last time though since i didn't know i wouldnt be there for the last 2 days... but oh well. St Issac was good, as usual. Not much i care to comment on here. Though its kinda weird not getting up early now... i keep waking up at like 6:30, 7:00, 7:30, 8:00 every morning then going back to sleep. But at this week i'll get to sleep more. This week which consists alot of doing/buying stuff for the house, for london, and spending time with friends and such, some of which i havent seen in a long time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Had a BBQ @ eddie's place last night, so saw tommy n kt n people which i havent seen for at least 6 months if not like a year or 2. And probably wont see them again for another year... at least.. lol&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well sorta decided i'll move into london on the 28th and mayb stay till the 30th before coming back to Toronto until labor day. Kinda clueless what the house still needs... and communication between housemates in regards to that has been rather lacking... not sure how everyone else expects things will just suddenly come together.. but i guess we'll see how it turns out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;now that summer's running down kinda wishing i had more time.. seems like so much it was spent working and moving and stuff. That and a part of me doesn't wanna go back to London. Even though for much of first year it was a nice "getaway" from toronto. Now I dont really want to leave. Though obviously thats not an option at this point, so i've got about 2 weeks to make up my mind whats going to happen about "that". That or just "sheng kay gee yin la"... just hope it wont become something i will end up regretting --"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;"&gt;-Hiram&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32044281-115621317194290052?l=hiramc.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://hiramc.blogspot.com/feeds/115621317194290052/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32044281&amp;postID=115621317194290052' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32044281/posts/default/115621317194290052'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32044281/posts/default/115621317194290052'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://hiramc.blogspot.com/2006/08/well-as-of-friday-camps-been-over-and.html' title=''/><author><name>Hiram Chong</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00757635233887260111</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32044281.post-115577592969433017</id><published>2006-08-16T20:26:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2006-08-16T20:52:16.253-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>this week i'm back at my own camp... =D yay!&lt;br /&gt;we have a record breaking number of 19 kids this week too... (lol.. kinda sad when other camps have like 40+ all the time)&lt;br /&gt;they're still one of the best behaving camps i'm seen so i'm not complaining...&lt;br /&gt;on tuesday district paged and wanted me to work as special need integration staff with a kid with downs syndrome... but supposedly that requires special training and stuff which i didn't do because i didn't sign up for working with special needs.  So i ended up turning it down.  Thinking back i'm still wondering if i should have done it.  Becuase at the time i thought it wouldn't be fair to the kid if i was looking after them rather than someone with training... But i find out after that they didn't have anymore integration staff and becuase i said "no" the kid didnt get to go to camp.  District was just thinking thatd i'd be able to do it.  &gt;.&gt; feelin that i let the kid down now...  Though District could have at least told me!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway... today was dodgeball tourny at oriole, so like 20-3o camps where there i think... Holy redeemer did pretty well 6th place, though Blessed Kateri eliminated us and ended up 3rd.  St. Issac eliminated them and went on to be the champs... Must be all that dodgeball you play with them Maggie.. lol...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So 2 more days of camp.. then thats it.. Well my supervisor was asking me if i wanted to work with the city for next 2 weeks after.. but figured i'd want a break and get time to move into london.&lt;br /&gt;Besides they dont even pay me on time... &gt;.&lt;&gt;.&lt; hopefully can borrow a van and do a trip next week with the sofas n tables n stuff...&lt;br /&gt;Jeff.. gimme a call or something some time will ya, we needa talk about food..
