Swayed
Since the semester started, I’ve been bombarded with an abnormally large amount of reading on the thoughts of various philosophers and Christian artists. I just finished a tedious reading outline on 41 long pages of the thoughts of Calvin Seerfeld (Calvin…who?), and low and behold, I just realized that reading #2 required another outline of a 51 page article.
Yeah…no.
I...

IT IS FINISHED!!!
After dayyyysss of labor layering a once styrofoam ball with incredibly random things, I am absolutely relieved that I am finally finished with this massive 3D project. Yesssss :) Thank You Jesus.
However, I’ve painfully embarked on another hard journey of placing 100 photographs into a 204 page book. This is probably my 2nd night staying up till at least 4AM editing...

LORD, hear my prayer, listen to my cry for mercy in your faithfulness and righteousness come to my relief. Do not bring your servant into judgment, for no one living is righteous before you. The enemy pursues me, he crushes me to the ground; he makes me dwell in the darkness like those long dead. So my spirit grows faint within me; my heart within me is dismayed. I remember...

A little backstory to this clip before you watch it: Will Smith’s father abandoned him and his mother when he was a child, and when Will was finally getting into show business and making a name for himself, he tried to snake his way back into his life like nothing happened. Will co-wrote this episode, and James Avery (Uncle Phil) said “this scene was the hardest thing...
Waiting for God's Glory
I’ve been thinking a lot about my parents and their growing ministry for the Lord. There are times where I would sit in nostalgia and try to recall the days where my family and I were all living under the same roof. Alas, my long term memory seems to be failing. I can’t even remember the days I met my best friends (no worries reader, we’ve had many discussions about it, followed...

To Fight for Your Art
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does...

Blessings in Confinement
My days have been wasted away as I watch movies, cook mediocre dinners and spend hours online. It’s pretty sad to say that at the near end of Day 5, I realize that these days spent in confinement are still great blessings of God. Who am I that I deserve another day? Perhaps even another breath? Ugh how incredibly foolish of me to take for granted the days that have been graciously given to...
Day 2 in Confinement
With a lack of groceries and no means of transportation to the grocery store, I had to be creative with what I had left in the fridge for dinner. All I had were a great deal of sandwich food without the bread, and things to throw into an omelette without the eggs. As a result, I made a measly sausages and tomatoes dish topped with salt and pepper for seasoning. Gross.
Yup. It definitely did not...
The Confinement Chronicles
I came back yesterday from the auto shop and plopped on my bed realizing that my wings have been clipped. The words of the mechanic kept playing over and over in my head: “The car’s second gear is about to blow out. It’s best not to drive it anymore”
Alas, my beloved black stallion of 10 years has finally reached its demise. It’s saddening to know that such a...

Hello San Francisco Loves :)
I’ve resorted to writing a small post on what I’ve been up to lately just to keep those back at home in San Francisco and my family posted. I know I’ve been insanely MIA since summer started, and haven’t done a good job keeping in touch :/ With that, I’m sorry guys! But here’s a small gist of what’s been happening :)
After applying to countless...

Annoyed With Comfort
I find it increasingly annoying being able to lay comfortably on a bed and being provided with food more than 3 times a day while knowing there are others who are not able to enjoy these luxuries I indulge in because of the catastrophes that unexpectedly hit their country not too long ago. I find it irritating knowing that I am able to freely worship in a church while others are being persecuted...

God Doesn't Need You
“The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by hands. And He is not served by human hands, as if He needed anything, because He Himself gives all men life and breath and everything else. From one man He made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and He determined the times set for them and the...
Music Euphoria
Alright reader, I have a confession. I am highly addicted to the euphoria I get from music.
I absolutely love finding new music on sites, t.v. shows or hearing it in a mall or over the radio. I go hungry for more music when I get bored with my playlist after creating it 2 weeks ago. If I hear a song and have no source whatsoever of finding who the artist is, I would pick out a line from the...

Accidents Are So Unfortunate...
On Friday, December 10th, I’ve experienced my very first car accident.
I cannot recall a major car accident when I was younger. I can only recall minor ones, such as another car door hitting the side of my family’s vehicle, but never collisions of any kind.
As I was listening to Jamie Cullum and being mesmerized by his dreamy voice, I stopped by a red light about to make a right...
The Bounty Hunter...?
My car has been gracious and kind to me since I brought it down to LA with the help of my eldest brother. However, a couple of days ago, a series of unfortunate mishaps has caused the following “injuries” to my beloved vehicle (in which case, is quite painful to list): a burnt out headlight, a need of an oil change, a flat tire, and the glorious maintenance light was lit in bright...

Marriage
I hope I write with no intention of making this post a mere gushy relationship spiel, but instead, give my readers a window to my thoughts upon the idea of the beautiful union God has created between man and woman. I guess these thoughts arise as the day of my brother’s wedding approaches slowly but very surely. It’s crazy but exciting to know that I’ll get a beautiful...
