Tis' The Season
For My Favorite Purple BOOTIES!
I can't decide who's the bigger dork: me for taking pictures of my booties with my webcam or Jena, or more commonly referred to by me as "Jenaayy" (see "Forrest Gump" for reference), for jumping into the pictures.

Lifan Cai :) "My name is Li, but you can call me Blake. B-L-A-K-E." *bows* he is absolutely adorable.

Back from the Dead
Since Rachel is neglecting this, I'll try and breathe life into it again!
It's official, I'm headed to the 'Bury next summer... any suggestions of things to do? Leave your comments.
And for everyone's pleasure, I'll add a pretty old picture for your enjoyment.

Dying. Figuratively
Sin stricken humanity.
My body is weak.
My mind is weak.
My will is weak.
My heart is weak.
My words are weak.
Are you getting the general idea?
For (roughly) fourteen days my body has been cursed with sleepless nights and nauseous days.
I have struggled with sleeping at nights for over two years. Sometimes it gets better for a while and then it falls back into this dark pattern.
The nausea, however, is new.
There have been several theories, thus far:
1) My sufferings are a direct reaction to my dairy allergy. (Theory is nearly scratched out because of my habitual avoidance of named product)
2) Because of my short stature there is not a lot of space "for [my] guts" (quoting my mother) and, therefore, I am suffering from early reflux.
3) I suffer from anxiety.
In any case, I am EXHAUSTED. I know my English teachers would be appalled to see me using capital letters instead of adjectives to express my emotion, but it truly in necessary.
So these are the theories. We (meaning my parents and I) are in the process of testing each one carefully.
Any you would like to add?

Taking It All In
(sweet revenge!)
Life is so weird.
I am deciding whether I should make this abstract mumbo-jumbo or be straight with you..
Okay. So as I sit here just writing, thinking of what I am trying to say, I am feeling a little mixed up.
For those of you that know my current home situation concerning my parents (that's all I can say about this for now) then you know more of where I am finding myself.
I am sad inside because of some life issues that have been beating me up lately,
but I am also really happy. Happy for this week and all the possibilities of tomorrow.
Nervous too.
This week has so many adventures and so many stories in the making.
I am so excited to live each one!

Tibet, Life and Other Random Things
Thanks again Rachel, for letting me use your blog.
Some have been interested in what is going on in Tibet ect. Since Olympics are being held in China this year they are seeing this as a platform to get the 'freedom' they want. Protests are happening all over the world, including here. They are peaceful, yet the Chinese government wants them to put to an end quickly so they are charged with batons or whatever you call them ready to hit an demonstrator who can get on the end of it.
Life is grand, have found a wonderful church here! Makes a HUGE difference. Am helping plan a VBS they will have for three days. Should be exciting and am very happy to be serving the local church here. Actually brings a taste of home to my life, except everything is in a different language and a smaller scale. 30ish people attending services each Saturday.
Power outages are still a huge part of life. Frustrating but am used to it now and have come up with a schedule that allows me to make the most out of my time... always a good feeling.
I've become addicted if you will to Prison Break. I've seen the first two seasons.
Pray for me as I'm pretty sure that shortly I'll be gaining a lot of responsibility here as if finances isn't enough. Haha. It will be good though and cause me to run to Christ even more which is never bad.
Well, I'll bring this to a close as I've got nothing interesting to say. I'll try to update more often, which should be doable.
Ah yes, one other thing... we too celebrated Easter last Sunday. We aren't strange like Ukrainians. Met at the church at 6am for a short sermon and singing and then joined thousands of Christians marching together to the center of town where a big rally was held celebrating our risen Lord! It is so evident to see the joy of the Lord on the faces of believers here. Good times indeed.
Yours truly,
AnnaP

Thought vs. Action
So I was originally going to post a ridiculously long post about mushrooms.
How as a child (two months ago) they were gross and slimy and the idea of eating fungus was not appealing. The idea of eating a fungus is STILL not appealing, however, I have acquired a taste for there pungent flavor and spongy texture.
But I am tired and want to go to bed. Plus I want to watch Rebbecca with AnnaP......ugh...life is weird.

annap and her alive-ness
Thanks to the generosity of a certain Miss. Rachel, I shall be trying to grace her blog with a post from me once a week.
For now, we're up to 8 hours a day of load shedding. It's 6am and power just went, will be out until 10am only to out again at 2pm and return at 6 in time for me to watch the top 12 perform on American Idol. Never seen it before, rather exciting. Not something I'd be watching if my precious sports channels weren't taken from me.
Anyway, thanks again Rachel!
