god never ceases to amaze me. i randomly chose a verse and this is what i got: "blessed be the lord! for he has heard the voice of my pleas for mercy. the lord is my strength and my shield; in him my heart trusts, and i am helped;"
how comforting it is to know that God knows. that i can trust in Him. how amazing it is that He is my strength and my shield. and how utterly ironic it is that i pulled this verse. on this night.
just something to contemplate; goodnight.

OH ISLA VISTA.
you never cease to amaze me. haha.
through it all, ucsb still finds a way to party hardy, get around any and all restrictions, and above all else, OUT DO ITSELF in any given opportunity.
this weekend marked isla vista's annual "floatopia". a weekend where typically everyone goes out to the beach with their floaties & inflatable devices, to get completely inebriated while basking the sun scantily clad, and apparently having the time of their lives. in the past 4 years that i have been attending this school, only 1 floatopia topped the charts--floatopia 2009. although i have never attended myself, i recall the first two years being very gloomy, and last year was apparently amazing. however, due to the increase of out of towners, the excessive drinking & irresponsibility, the isla vista beaches were completely TRASHED. ph levels were even altered as a result of the incredible amount of pee that entered the ocean! AYE, people.
anyway, as a prevention from last year, santa barbara law enforcement prohibited any entry to the beach, & thus the true isla vista spirit came out. instead, out of towners, locals and more made their way out into the streets, dancing & frolicking around nearly naked up and down the streets of i.v. although i was thrilled that sb's law enforcement decided to protect the beach, it was quite a sight to see from right outside my bedroom window.
eunice and i managed to make our way out into the sea of sunkissed people & here's a picture i snapped:

pretty crazy, ey? haha. that's what i thought. and this picture is pretty PG! ha, we even saw a guy in a sort of one-piece contraption that resembled that of borat's. and lemme just say-i am SO GLAD i did not get a picture of that! (although eunice did, HAHA).
so moral of the story? isla vista-ians, REALLY are that crazy. ohhh "floatopia". haha.
juss a lil bit.
overwhelmed.
feels like this quarter is already passing me by. i have so many responsibilities, so many jobs/internships, clubs, and just THINGS i would like to do before i leave this state.
sometimes i sit and wonder what it'd be like for one day to just throw all my responsibilities out the window. how glorious would that be?
only in my dreams...haha.
well, here's to another early morning wake up. gnight.

ai ya.
ohhh the double standards of life. not a fan.
but learning to humble myself, has been the true challenge. "you, my brothers, were called to be free. but do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature; rather, serve one another in love." -galatians 5:13.
i am a woman of expression. i wear my thoughts, feeling & emotions boldly on my sleeve. not so much this time. there is so much more. so much more that does not meet the eye. but i'm okay with that. God will just have to continue walking me through this. sometimes i wish i could just say something though.
the beach will sooth my heart; praise God♥
