College Life

Woot! well, i noticed that i havent posted anything since, april, which to say is a really long time. i think i should post something up every once in a while.

i've been doing a lot of thinking, but then again, a lot of not thinking either. this past week i've been sick =[

i feel like writing about my sick journey.
so on wednesday i feel a little sick, just out of it you know?
then on thursday i wake up not wanting to go to class but i go anyways because its a lab and there are dire consequences when i miss those stupid classes. after chem lab and lecture, i eat and go home and sleep. now i'm coughing like crazy. so i just sleep it out
friday morning i wake up feeling like crap and i email both of my teachers saying that there's no way i can come into class today and that i'm just like crap. i cough out phlegm and i have this major headache and i'm in pain and yada yada
saturday and sunday i stay home sick, i sleep most of the time. i watch a lot of the movies that i downloaded from home, lol. i get really bored from watching all these movies though. it gets that way after your forth movie or so. lol but i'm still in pain and i'm coughing like crazy.
so monday i call the health center and tell them whats up and that i took tylenol and it doesnt help. so they tell me to go to the pharmacy and get just cough medicine with something to help the phlegm. so i walk alll the stupid way over there dying on the way because of the cough. and i buy the medicine, go home and make some chicken noodle soup for myself. lol
the medicine doesnt help at all, i still feel like dying, i give it another day, which means tuesday passed too
so on wednesday, i call the health center again saying the med didnt help and i still feel like crap, good stuff. they tell me to come in and see the doctor. oh boy, they have the best service, no doubt, i'm sitting there sick and amazed at the same time. lol.
so the doctor tells me that i have a lung infection. i'm like what the ....freakkkkk......
she gives me some antibiotics and some inhalers to help with the breathing. who would've ever guessed that i had a lung infection. i thought it was just a normal cough or cold.
oh well, i'm a lot better now and i can't get over it.

my health is totally on a higher level of appreciation now in my book. i need to eat and stay healthy. i definitely dont want anything like this happening again. stupid lung infection, not that i couldve avoided it anyways but yeah.

it also really helped to put into perspective how fragile i am. my life is seriously in the hands of my almighty God. He's the one who decides when i go and how i go. i'd be a little sad if i died from a lung infection, i'd rather die saving someone but who knows, only God does.
He holds my life in his hands, and i'm really thankful to him for everything that i have.

12:44

hey there world

it's 12:44 right now and i'm up
i really can't motivate myself to do homework or study anymore it's really bad. i'm just like checking my facebook, email, youtube, and it just goes like that in a cycle. rofl, it's pretty bad addiction haha

here are some pictures from our seekers trip to the bronx zoo. not that many people came but i would still say that it was really fun. it was an awesome day outside and we got a group rate so we saved a bunch of money. sometimes just doing something as simple of visiting the zoo really brings me to appreciate what God has given to us. it made me want to become an environmentalist or some one who fought to save animals. they're just so cudly and cute. i want to keep a black leopard in my house haha or a lion
sometimes people are always giving the whole God isn't real and that everything came from mutations. sometimes i think that people who say that have never really gotten a chance to stop and look at what's around them. have they ever really looked at the grass, looked at the complexity of the human body, or even where the earth is placed? if we were any closer we wouldnt be able to survive, and farther, same thing, we'd freeze.




i've gotta say. i've fallen in love with seekers every time i'm with them. it's like the only major christian fellowship in high school and i think that it has so much potential. there's so much power just brewing in high school kids. we're capable of doing so much and we just really need an outlet to do stuff with all that we have. seekers allows us to create a family of believers who are our own age from different churches and backgrounds.
sometimes i wish i could stay and keep on working on seekers to make it grow and grow. but i've gotta say, there's a time for everything and it's close to my time to leave. i'm excited to enter the college fellowships to see what God has for me there.
but in these two months that i have left in high school. Seekers is still my family and i'm going to work doubly hard to make God known in this school.

Merry CHRISTmas

Hello there again! It’s that time of year again! It’s Christmas!!

To tell you the truth, I don’t know why but it doesn’t feel like Christmas to me. Maybe that’s a good thing, maybe that’s a bad thing. Lol

I just wanted to type up another little note for you guys that I started writing myself in my journal. I would’ve just took a picture of my journal and sent it to you guys, but I thought putting in some time and effort would be a better idea. So here I am on Christmas eve typing this up for you guys.

I guess I wasn’t exactly feeling the Christmas spirit this year because of the stupid stuff like college and school work and the wrestling team and just some general overall stress from family and stuff. But I think it’s also from what I’m seeing around me these days. Everyone is going shopping crazy. I think shopping is definitely fun and giving gifts is awesome but I think it’s just the fact that it is what people think about when Christmas comes around is a thought that doesn’t linger well in my mind.

Christmas is about the celebration of one gift, and many people forget it.

This one gift I have to say, hands down, is the craziest gift I have ever heard of in my life. It is seriously the only gift I know of that can’t be broken, fits anyone and everyone, makes everyone happy, is FREE, and can’t be lost. And wait, there’s one more thing, it’s from someone who loves us more than anyone that we’ve ever known in our entire life.
This gift is love. Not just any love, but the Love of God in the form of His only son Jesus Christ.

It would be nice if you guys could take the time out to read Luke 2:1-20 and Matthew 1:18 – 2:23.

God created this earth and everything on it just for us. And He even created heaven so that there would be a place for us to be with Him. And He did it all because He loved us.
But then something happened, we screwed up and fell into sin. But that didn’t stop God. He found a way around this so that we could be with Him in heaven. And this is the climax of the greatest love story of all time, the reason why we celebrate Christmas. God decided that the only way for us to go to heaven was if He sent his only son Jesus down to earth to die for all of our sins.

Christmas is about celebrating the climax of God’s love for us.

Jesus didn’t come into existence when he first entered the world 2000 so years ago. He always existed and was there when the universe was created. He was being praised and waited upon by the angels 24/7. He was worshipped and lived in a place so beautiful that most of us can only hope to imagine.
God chose a little teenage girl to become the human vessel and mother of Jesus for Him to enter the world. When she was well into her pregnancy Caesar Augustus decreed a census to be taken and that every man take their family back to the town of their fathers to be taxed. So Joseph and Mary were forced to leave Nazareth to travel the 90 so mile trek to Bethlehem on a mule while she was pregnant. And when they got there they couldn’t even find a place to stay but had to go to a stable with a bunch of animals there. I don’t know about you but I’m pretty sure it was cold and that it smelled bad from all the manure and piss of the animals. Christ’s entrance into this world was all but peaceful. The first things he noticed or saw around him were a bunch of barn animals and was surrounded by the smell of their wastes. Joseph and Mary then had to take Jesus and hide in Egypt because King Herod wanted to kill Jesus.

Christmas is a celebration of the birth of a savior into a dying world, a story of love, and the greatest act of humiliation that we could possibly comprehend.

This Christmas, as you spend it with your family, please take the time to remember that we are here to celebrate a gift of love. Christmas isn’t about giving gifts to others but about us accepting and celebrating God’s gift to us.

So let us remind each other and our family this Christmas why we are celebrating it. Let us thank God for His eternal love for us and have a big party because it’s Jesus’ Birthday Party! :]

Merry CHRIST mas

Lol. Sry I came out long again XD

Christmas time!!!

hey there ppl,

i dont know how people may come across this page or read it or not. but i guess i promised some people i would occasionally write something here

Well, Christmas is coming up and i'm just busy with stuff. I'm on the wrestling team full time and that takes me away from Seekers and it makes me sad! it's like taking me away from my family. But its okay, i'm positive that jae can handle everything.
well, i didnt even think about getting people gifts for Christmas this year until the last minute. i was just swamped with work and stuff. wrestling practice ends at like 7 every night and i get home at 8:30 or so. and then i just eat dinner, bum around for a bit, and then i'm so tired i dont even bother with homework and i just fall asleep.

i dont even care much about school anymore, i'm just worried about not failing. as you can see, my standards arent that high.

i just want to sleep and play and all that good stuff, but grades....gosh

Christmas..... i'll post up something more about it later. lols.

i'm not exactly feeling the christmas spirit right now is all.... :[
