Forget the Past, Move Forward

It’s New Year’s Eve! I just can’t believe the fact that today is the end of the year. Time flies so fast! Many things have happened this year. Whether they were pleasant or not, I still wanted to thank God for what He has done for me through this year.

Looking back, I realized that I was such a disappointment to everybody and mostly to God. I did not do what I supposed to do. I rebelled. I took the wrong path. I abandoned God. I wasted time. I complained. I hated. I hold grudge. I cheated. This was me. I was shocked and I was embarrassed.

Things were very complicated until the mid-year of 2011. I was a mess. However, God is over abundantly being gracious to me. He walked me back to the right path. Before, I was lost and astray, but now I am found. When I came to Biola, everything changes. One thing I thank God the most for this year is studying at Biola because at there, I was transformed into a new person.

This year is another great year for me. God’s grace and mercy are still with me. I cannot and will never be able to count His blessings to me. This is my reflection. I hope it can bring blessings to you.

I hope you guys can start your new day in 2012 by recording what God has done in your life. List all your struggles and bible verses that strengthen and comfort you. It’s going to be wonderful to read back what God has done in your life if you read it after 20 years. =)

Have a wonderful NEW YEAR everyone! =). God bless you abundantly!

Tick Tock

3 days guys... they are coming in 3 days.. =D. I'm super duper happy..! Today is the start of my final week. I don't have heavy subject to study.. i only need to memorize some passages, and that's all. I'm thankful that i don't need to study much.. :).

We are going to do a road trip this december... kinda adventurous and i think i love it.. i'm so curious what will come out.. hohohoho.. how's your holiday guys? =D. i think you guys must be so excited ;).

i don't have many things to say honestly.. cause i watched k-drama all day long... i am currently watching "My Princess". At first, i was watching "The Musical". That drama was hilarious.. it was the story about a girl who is passionate about musical and she striving to play on the stage. Thumbs up for her. She never gives up. I hope i can have the spirit like her. =(. I love musical, too, but my desire is not as big as her.. sighhh... well, unfortunately, the subtitle is not very good after 5 or 6 episodes, and i stopped... so, i switched to My Princess. taraaa... <3 that  drama.. hhohoho

That's all i think =D. Planning to go to D-land with Sharon this week.. hope there is someone who can drop and pick us.. prayyyy...
Ganbatte for the ones who have final!!
and have a happy holiday ;).

13 days to Christmas!

Secret Santa

Hi guys... :). How are you? it is a tough week, isn't it? well, everyone is in the midst of final test. I hope you guys can do and pass the test pretty well. ;). Ganbatteeee... Always rely on Him, study well.. !!
These 2 weeks are my final week, and i'm pretty glad that finally i can end this semester. :). I am so grateful  for many things that God has taught me so far this fall. It's not only the knowledge i received, but also spiritual maturity. I now know that He is my God, who is sovereign. I am saved by grace, nothing else. Furthermore, what He has done for me is to glorify His name.
For one month I pondered about this thing. Well, here is the thing. We have been saved. Imagine what will happen if God did not save us. We certainly are dead. However, because of His abundant love, He saved us! Now, we are in Christ folks. That's one thing i always thank Him for.
Next, we have a new life. We should live not for our own desire, but we should live for Him. In this case, every time we read the Bible or pray to God, remember that it is not for our own sake. Asking God to heal us for instance. I don't say that we should not pray to God to heal us, but please pray that His will be done. We don't have right to ask God to fulfill our wish because, remember, we were dead if He did not save us. He owns our lives now by sacrificing His only Son to pay for our sin. Therefore, we should live according what God wants.
This is my thought and i have been thinking about this until now. Moreover, after i have done the paper and discovered so many unexpected things. I know my writing is not so good, but i'm trying to learn how to write note like this. :).

Well, i need to find or make present above 5 dollars. =.=". anyone has suggestion? i need to do it this week because my dorm plays "Secret Santa". I want to make a scarf, but i cannot knit. T.T . well2... hope i can find the perfect gift. Lol. Christmas is coming and i am terribly excited. My family is coming! *dance* miss them so much.. =)

Anyway, see you guys in the next post ;)
Christmas in 19 days =DDDD

Early Thanksgiving?

Howdy! it's Thursday already. Gosh! Thanksgiving holiday is in 5 days..! =D. Gonna have trip to SF with my friends. oohh ohh.. Superb.. can't wait ;).
Anyway, i have early thanksgiving dinner at the cafe today.. saw Dr. Barry Corey, Biola President and took pictures with him. He really looks like a celebrity. Hohoho. I stuffed myself with too much food today. Forgive me dear stomach. I just can't resist the temptation. hiks. i gained lots of weight since i came here and every day i am crying for that. *sigh. any suggestion friends? =.='. my face is getting rounder rounder rounder and round.. =_______________='.
As usual, i got SIM paper that is due tomorrow, and i am doing it now. Soooo frustrated. But it is the 12th SIM and i still got one more plus one hermeneutics paper and then i am done forever. yippieeeee... I am so glad that i can survive all of those. Thanking God for that. =D. He is such a lovely Father to me and you know what? He accompanies me every day, every time, especially when i felt so lonely. =). I'm so glad that I have Him in my life.

Try this: Every morning you wake up, think of 5 things you are thankful for and every night before you sleep, do the same! Thanks God every day even for the smallest thing you do, like walking, eating, sleeping, etc. Don't take things for granted because you will never know when you will have that chance again. =)

Happy early Thanksgiving, guys!
