Chatterbox
A popular misconception is that Son is a quiet, sensible, boring boy... well, maybe the "boring" part is not misconceived >.<Well, I have evidence from my weekend trip to Sydney that will disprove two of the three misconceptions!
1. Quiet Son?
I'll use Sunday as an example.
- 15 minutes chatting with my host...
- After church service at EFCA, almost 2 hours chatting after the service and over lunch...
- Another half hour chatting...
- Break to replenish fluids - two 500ml bottles of asian fruit flavoured drinks and small KFC mashies (was feeling a bit peckish...mashies yummy!)...
- More chatting in the car to NAAC...
- And more chatting before the service...
- And then hour or more of chatting after the service and over dinner...
- Followed by almost 4 hours of chatting in the car on the way back to Canberra (mouth was feeling somewhat parched by the end of it)...
- But wait, there's more! Another half hour chatting to a couple of houseguests.
That's more than 8 hours of pretty constant chatter on my part... *sigh* far exceeded my quota. Please excuse me if I don't talk to you for another few months =P
Yes, I can be quite the chatterbox... and with three housemates it's been a lot more difficult to be anti-social... and I even find myself WANTING to talk to people *shudder*... (I know I'm probably simultaneously showing how non-sensical (read: NOT sensible) Son is).
2. Sensible Son?
Well, Son did a few things that weren't all too sensible over the weekend. Unfortunately, I can't share them all with you at this point... I hope you understand =)

Alright, with all seriousness (well, more seriousness), it was great to catch up with so many of my Sydney friends (I also went to a housewarming on Saturday and ate an one of our old uni haunts!). Of course, I'm a little tired now, having chatted online for over 2 hours after a day at work and having got back so late last night, but that's alright, it's been an interesting few days.
I was going to say something else... something more meaningful, but unfortunately it's a bit late and I'm a bit tired... having already engaged in a rigorous discussion on the whether humans are able to truly comprehend romantic love (trust me, you don't want to get started on this). And so, I'll leave you again for now. I have much planning and writing to do over the next couple of months, but I'll try and drop in every now and then to entertain whoever's still here =)
Oh, please pray for me, that I might have patience. Again, it's something I might explain later. Sorry.
May your days and nights be filled with the love of God.
Goodnight =)

haha, I'll excuse you for not talking for the rest of the month- shocking how you managed to go beyond your quota of words per week within a day! :P
Will be praying for you... ^_^
hehe... for the record, I DO NOT have a quota... but if I did... yes, I would have been breaking it =P
