- Bruno Mars station on Pandora has such a wide variety of music, from Bruno Mars to Tarzan to Spice Girls.. i lav it

chase your dream

- creation > evolution — not something I just learned today, but something that struck out to me even more during my BILD 3 lecture. I remember on the first day, “Evolution is real” was written on one of the lecture slides. Why “reinforce” falsity? hm.

- i just remembered the Proud Family show today, i miss it. LAA CIEEENEGGAAA!

- training day was a dope movie.. watched it yesterday, and I still think about it here and there

- the “work” of evolution taught in class only opens my eyes even more about God’s creation. 

- the things you have to learn to pass the class, eh? Doesn’t mean you have to believe it. 

- Thank God for all the yummy food he provides =) 

howww cute is this!!

I’m 10 minutes late in posting Yesterday’s post, but I’m making it up, and I’m posting yesterday’s post today. I failed, but it’s okie

- When making homemade korean tacos, dweji bulgogi > galbi =)

- Crook cops still exist… ? I just watched “training day” and it got me thinking about the dirty side of society. tsk tsk. it kind of scares me, actually..

- Growing isn’t anything instant, taking it step by step is a sign of improvement. 

- God is love 

What I learned:

-I like to eat for fun. Not a new thing that I’ve learned from myself, but I eat just because I want to, not because I’m hungry

-It only takes 5 minutes for an installer to install internet at your apt 

- I can’t finish a whole Sprinkles cupcake by myself 

-If it’s not Lactaid milk, I’m not drinking it..ever..again. 

-Walmart has changed! They renovated everything for it to be a One-Stop convenient store, seriously!

- Paul’s smile never fails to warm my heart

- God is good! 

So I’ve been wanting to do this for a while,… Each day, I learn something new and I want to write it down just so that I could look back at it and continue to learn from it and because it’s nice to share new things with others :P

Saturday, July 2nd-July 3rd —love never fails. God’s love never fails. Without God’s love in a relationship, it will fail. A relationship with a boyfriend, family member, friend etc.. We need God in order to keep our relationships steady and firm. Although God may put me through trials and obstacles, my faith in Him will remain. God is faithful to his children and His unconditional love for me is so great. I can run back to my Father, and there he will be, welcoming me with open arms. How good is He? Even when I, as his child, stray from Him and put others before Him, He continues to reach down to me to show me his gratifying love..it’s amazing how God works in different ways to show me how much He loves and cares for me. So undeserving I am. God’s grace is enough for me. I am a lucky child of God.

Praise the Lord

The first day of November :)

IM BACK! 

It’s been four months since I’ve written a post… FOUR months! :O

Sounds like such a short time, but so much has happened within that span of time. Summer 2010 has gone by and my 2nd year of college has begun. Usually, when I have a lot on my mind, I think about typing them out onto some word document or blog but putting my thoughts into words is definitely harder than it sounds. Writing is so… liberating; being able to freely and publicly express yourself through words makes me thankful.

F. Father

A. And

M. Mother,

I. I

L. Love

Y. You.

It’s true, I do. With all my heart, I love my family. 

GRATEFULNESS

I’ve always been taught as a kid to be grateful for all the things that I have. I remember my church youth group teacher telling us something within the lines of, “Even be grateful for the things that are always there but not always so ‘out there’ and recognizable”, such as water. Water is a big necessity in our lives but we don’t realize what large role it plays as a ‘life saver’ because we’re so prone to the good, comfortable living. Even the smallest aspects of life, we forget to give thanks to God who provides us with everything. With Him, nothing is possible. Because God loves me, He provides. I try looking for comfort in the everlasting God, rather than the tangible things that come and go. You know, I realized… we sin and do things that are not pleasing in the eyes of God, but yet He is still so sovereign and loving to us. Recently, I’ve really been touched to the heart by understanding how much God loves us. God loves me regardless of my sinful thoughts and deceitful actions. A father whose love for me is unconditional is the perfect gift I could ever ask for. Prayer shouldn’t solely be about repenting and asking for forgiveness, but it should also be about thankfulness; thankful that our sins are forgiven and that we are clean in God’s eyes when we repent whole-heartedly because of Christ. Even still, I can’t fully express how amazed and blessed I am whenever I am reminded of Christ and how He died for our sins. Knowing that men will sin, God still sent His one and only Son to die for OUR sins. How can I not be so thankful and gracious even after knowing this? Why do I keep repeating the same sins over and over, even knowing that they are wrong? How can I not be so committed to the ones that I love when God is always and forever fully committed to me?

I want to know You more … 

when i do something for others, i don’t do it expecting something in return

but, it feels so nice to feel appreciated

makes me think about how much God provides for me, every second of my life

how everything i have is not earned, but given

i deserve nothing, but He has given me everything.

these 2 words: “thank you” make me feel so happy and appreciated

but then, it just reminds me of how unappreciative i am.

i give thanks to God when good things happen/large situations occur in my life and other times i forget and thank myself for the things i have, believing that i earned it through my own hard work

i need to be reminded every minute of my life that anything and everything i have is not earned by my own deeds, but given as a gift from God.

even being able to realize what a great Father i have reminds me of how lucky i am to be called by His name. 

what would Jesus do?
