The whole Church was filled with emotion and indescribable feelings today. Minister Jackson is leaving in October and its hard for any church to lose their leader. It doesn’t help that Wendy ah-yi left too, so now we’re basically running around like a headless chicken. I sure hope our Church gets its bearings together and finds some leaders.

Running was sort of fail today. I water-ran for 50 minutes, which was exhausting. Then I went to run with Dave Sun…but we only managed 30 minutes at a horrific pace because I was so sore from water running just 30 minutes before. Oh and then Aaron went with Dave to do one more hill, but I got bored waiting for them (I was going to give Dave a ride home) and so I drove UP, (I know, what the hell?), to the tennis courts and ran down. That was smart. I lost all motivation to run back up to the top of the park, so Aaron drove me and Dave back up to my car.

The Olympic closing ceremony wasn’t nearly as interesting as the opening. The marathon winners had their medals though and I felt so happy for Kenya. Go Kenya!

Sunday. Another day at church…and now I find out minister Jackson is off to do some church-planting. That officially leaves us with…Pastor Paul and Minister Heald. Grrrrreat. I love how the heads of our church are like disappearing.

In other news, [this] is a very good read. Its about how girls should not date startup guys….or if they feel like a bumpy adventure they should. Though I tend to disagree on one point, because some developers don’t like Mac. I personally think Apple is worse than Microsoft in that Bill Gates became a philanthropist…while Steve Jobs just takes a $1 salary…but gets HUGE corporate gifts. Microsoft develops expensive software that gets stolen….Steve makes expensive software and hardware to steal your money at hugely jacked up prices. Microsoft isn’t “OSS-Friendly,” Apple “is” but locks hardware down so tight you can’t change your graphics card. Oh and OSX only runs on Macs, legally at any rate. Way to go, Apple, you startup-friendly bank-robber!
