| Xanga entries are becoming few and far between. The culprit is laziness. But as I've taken too many naps today, I've decided to catch up on xangans' lives and catch you up on mine.
So on Sunday, I was praying and I remembered my neighbor, Crisna, the teen who I tried to tutor. Well, she actually moved away when I was up visiting Seattle a few weeks ago. Our tutoring sessions ended long before like in April, however. She just stopped showing up. Perhaps I wasn't innovative enough to make reading interesting or I talked about Jesus too much. I was a bit sad that she decided not to come anymore, but now I accept it as a part of life. Some will receive and some will reject. That's how it is. No regrets. But the funny thing is, she was visiting her old Mexican neighbors yesterday and I heard her mother's distinct hoarse voice and went downstairs and saw the kids! It made me feel like I saw an old friend. I was glad to see them. It makes me pray that Jesus will intervene in their lives and that I may be just one small contribution to that.
It's been 4 months going on 5 months waiting to hear about my Credential for teaching in California. I have been a teaching assistant for the past school year and for this summer and I'm cringing that I may have to do it another school term. I really would rather teach in a public school. But Sungyon gave me a fresh perspective when I saw her a few weeks ago. She said she's realizing that it's not about WHAT you do, but WHO you become that DEFINES you. What kind of character you're building and what kind of person you become is far more important than the job or position or money you make. It made me realize that griping about my job makes me a complainer, a whiner. I want to take this opportunity to be grateful, to have a humble heart waiting for what the LORD may have in store for me. Even if He allows me to stay at the private school, I don't want that to define me. I pray he makes me like Him! cuz He's just so wonderful!
Last but not least, it's almost my one year anniversary with the man God gave to me, and I'm so glad He did! I love you Kooey!

| So just the other Tuesday, May 15th, an arsonist burned our college and EM room. The man had a samurai sword and hurt the drummer who was practicing with the praise team. Here's the news story... var video_to_write_for_2856310649 = function () {var movie_2856310649 = new SWFObject("http://www.youtube.com/v/WXUuC91Boxo&autoplay=1", "YouTube_2856310649", "350px", "283px", 7, "#ffffff");movie_2856310649.addParam("wmode", "transparent");movie_2856310649.write('video_for_share_2856310649'); } | | |
| Wow, it's been ages since updating the good ole xanga beast. It's a shame myspace (which i don't prefer) and facebook (which is far better than myspace) have put convenience before the quality of an ole' fashion diary-like entry. So if there is anything to say, THIS is Xanga worthy.... I'm so happy that Allison is preggers!!! My precious sister-in-law has the legacy of the KANG family in her right now!!! whooohoooo!!! Here's a pic of my bro and Allison Unni. Ahhh, I miss them so very much! Unni is going to be the most wonderful mommy in the world!!! As my pb would say, I RUB YOU!!!!! | | |

| Just came back from Seattle. I was inspired. Steve oppa and Allison unni are giving up t.v. during Lent. Sungyon's New Year's Resolution is to give thanks everyday. My parents are non-stop living to the max in all they do, from early morning prayer to driving people to the hospital. Not only is the rain refreshing, which came 99% of the time I was there, but meeting my beloveds was SO refreshing! It was like coming to a clean, crystal clear waterfall after walking a hot desert road. I realized I missed my friends and family so much more than I allowed myself to imagine. The warm embraces of my friends and my family made me feel His embrace. It made me think of His unfailing Love even if we are missing in action or have strayed far from our Lord. He still waits for us. Six months is a long time to be gone, but it was as if I had never left. Their care and warmth made me realize the great importance of community, which I pray to find here in SoCal. I love you Seattlites!!!
