While my parents were here, we discussed the possibility that if a cheap flight to Taiwan comes up, then taking it would give me enough miles to get a free trip to Taiwan, plus get AC Elite status again next year. They encouraged this, and Roger found cheap flights in November, so I pulled the trigger, said goodbye to about $1200, and booked a flight. It's probably the cheapest ticket I've booked so far with the YYZ-->TPE route. Sure, others may have cheaper tickets before, but they always route the flights in the States and require at least 3 flights to get there... So, I think this is ok.

I'm trying to think, there had been a pattern to my series of depressions... They all seem to happen whenever I start serving the youth group seriously with Bible studies and stuff, and then to a point where I want to give up...

Procrastination...bad.
