Because I don’t know where else to update this? December 10, 2009

I still have a lot of dreams about being in Japan. But like, I just arrived that day and just took the train out of Narita Airport and am looking for a place to exchange my dollars for Japanese yen. Strange, strange dreams.
I wake up feeling sad about not being in Japan.

Brrrr… December 9, 2009

Is it just me or is it colder than it usually is this time of the year?
Nevertheless, thank God that he gives us changing seasons! It sure is nice to have a cold winter (minus the snow– not a big fan of it).
Mkayyy time to finish up finals week. Woohoo!

Joy :) December 7, 2009

The Lord always reminds me to be joyful during finals week. It’s hard, it’s stressful, and it’s frustrating when you’ve tried your best to be diligent the entire quarter but still find yourself short on time.
But then the Spirit reminds me that it’ll all burn anyway. Don’t take it too seriously. “You’re not [...]

Things to be thankful for (and not just at Thanksgiving season) November 26, 2009

[Caution! Long, rambly entry! But plz read it anyway?]
This year has been a year full of challenges that would’ve made me or broke me in previous years. It’s such a testimony to God’s goodness and faithfulness in sanctifying me in just the short four years that I’ve been saved for.
As Thanksgiving is comin’ around the [...]

Coffee on an empty stomach was a bad idea September 3, 2009

That explains why I’m still up at 3:33 AM.
In a lot of ways, today’s been a tough day. Externally, it was actually a pretty good, productive day. But my mind is raging and after the sweet peace that prayer brings, there’s still all this excessive writing energy that’s left and I’m using the last of [...]

NVT February 11, 2009

I’ve been a part of NVT (New Visitors Team) ever since my last few weeks as a freshman. I joined only because I wanted to serve in a ministry after being a member for a couple of months and Grace Mao asked if I were interested. I don’t think that I was interested in the [...]

Adding to the hub bub January 28, 2009

Is “hub bub” one word or two?
Anyway, ever since the members’ meeting this Sunday, everyone’s been updating their wordpresses, bloggers, xangas, what have yous, about the fact that LBC San Diego is planning to plant a church in San Jose! I actually heard about this from Tia over the break and was really excited for [...]

It is now January 2nd January 2, 2009

Most posts about the new year and resolutions and stuff are posted either on December 31 or January 1. I don’t like riding bandwagons ’cause they tend to be crowded and everyone on it assumes a strange, scary kind of anonymity. (I’ve always liked being different– my favorite color as a 5 year old was [...]

Wow o_o December 30, 2008

I haven’t been on this baby in too long. The entire dashboard format changed. And now there’s this “QuickPress” thing that I’m updating from. Wowowowowow.

Unexpected surprise October 25, 2008

A couple of my friends are making a J-drama like video for their final project for the core class that everyone in the EAP program is required to take. There’s a ramen shop scene so we went to the local ramen shop to shoot it. I’m the only one who can speak Japanese in the [...]
