HAHAHAHAHAHAHA read the comments! Ahh my stomach hurts. Made my night xD people in this world are beyond hilarious.
Really? What were the chances. Seriously. Been thinking about it these past few days. I thought and STILL think I’m not fully ready and incompetent. You think otherwise. So I accept. Please, let me be humble with the massive responsibilities given to me. Let me continually grow for You and become more confident. Use me and guide my words and actions for whatever I do, I do for You. Although I’m forever unwise to see it, the future and plans You have for me are so bright and hopeful. I’ve been reflecting on that these past few weeks, as I have been preoccupied with worldly stress. But for the first time, I was able to not be in my little bitter bubble, step out, and open my eyes a lil’ bit. Cause with the downs, I have been able to see the ups such as being blessed with an unbelievably caring and loving mother, family, and boy..along with amazing friends both here and at home..they’re so encouraging and cannot even..akdjaf;lkjdf thank you. Sometimes I still cannot grasp the fact you’re pure love and no matter what I do, it’s unconditional. Because instinctively I keep thinking I have to “earn” it, one way or another. But that’s not true. I’ve been saved through grace alone. That’s just how amazing You are and something that still has to truly sink in my heart. Yeah, I think in the midst of it all, life’s alright. It’s good, and I’m gonna be okay :)
ahh so cute.

HELLO TUMBLR WORLD
Lent is finally over! Therefore, back on tumblr even for just a little bit :) only like…a bajillion posts to catch up on from these past 40ish days. Heh. So nice to update myself and to watch youtube vids again too. But I’ll continue trying to keep them on a bare minimum because I had so much more time to do other things during lent. Extra meaningful activities such as devotions, spending more time with people, pacing myself with academics…yeahhh. Quite the discipline for me considering I spend a lot of time surfing the web. Oh, and giving up meat too! THAT was so sad and difficult. Respect for vegetarians/vegans right here T____T No da Korean BBQ?! :( but today my fellowship went to some hawaiian BBQ place after church service. I held back some sniffles as I happily attacked my delicious chicken. The sisters looked at me weirdly as I was getting semi-emotional over meat. Few pats on the back were given. Ugh so good. So full. It was glorious. So much more appreciation for nearly everything. And that’s pretty much the point of lent? I’m glad that I was able to stick to it and that God gave me strength to pursue on. Not a bad first experience.
I’ll write more updates on classes and slug life later. But for now must get cracking on these readings. HNNNNG SO MUCH READING. A;LJDFKL;AJSKLF 9 more weeks till summer.
"So many people walk around with a meaningless life. They seem half-asleep, even when they’re busy doing things they think are important. This is because they are chasing the wrong things. The way you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to creating something that gives your purpose and meaning."
