.:The Bahamas:.
Since we turned in a bit early tonight, I thought I’d update my tumblr for my Merced friends, Bay Buddies, or just for the Quarter students to read while they procrastinate from studying for their finals.
My family is on vacation until the 15th of June here in Nassau, Bahamas. We’re staying across the way from the Atlantis Resort in a hotel with miles of pure white sand and blue blue...

Jesus--an A list Star?
This vacation to NYC has become the pinnacle of my month!! This trip has been such a blessing all around. Two girls, with no supervision, loose in the Big Apple..not sure how it happened but we’re here. After being in New York for 3 days, I’ve had a new found appreciation for sleep and good tennis shoes..OH, and my ability to make friends with random strangers (for the sake of...

Professors that love Jesus.
Lately, I have been so encouraged by my professors here at Merced. Each semester, I have had one or two professors who are Jesus followers and I am so incredibly grateful. Having a professor who loves the Lord makes class such a delight because you know that they serve with joy and there’s an atmosphere of affirmation and ease.
Just last week, I went to Office Hours and out of no where my...
I love this :)
I recently heard the story of Fanny Crosby, the American hymn writer who lived in the nineteenth century. She described a life changing incident that happened to her as a baby: When about six weeks old I was taken sick and my eyes grew very weak and those who had charge of me poulticed my eyes. Their lack of knowledge and skill destroyed my sight forever. As I grew older, they old me I should...

Good Morning~
I have a Tumblr account but I never take advantage of this great creative space so I thought I’d tumble on this cold, damp day in Merced while sipping a cup of coffee. I could speak of my life, I could share about this semester, and I could try to be philosophical, but instead I am going to enlighten those who read this and share about my life as a tour guide.
I’ve...

Day Three/Four
“Put the blade down and let the bird go…”This line keeps running through my head every time I see the chicken stands (or any butcher places). They literally have chickens in dirty little cages with their poops all over the floor and the little Asian shop owners shamelessly take the chicken by the neck and end their life x_x poor birdies! If Hong Kong is known for anything,...
Day Two!
I can’t even count how many times we stopped to eat… curry fish balls, tapioca, dim sum, inmitation shark fin soup, some food items that I will never know the name of, mmm I think you get the picture. The pounds are piling on..no joke. We started the day by going to a place called the “Milk Factory,” this is the epitome of bad service. Only male waiters work there and the...
First Day in Hong Kong
So I thought it’d be kinda fun if I blogged a bit of my trip in Hong Kong..considering that it’s 6am here and there’s nothing to do in Hong Kong this early in the day. And LONG—I’m sure you wanna read about it since you are here with us in spirit. We saw Wanda and Ronnie :D
We arrived here yesterday (HK’s Christmas Day) with 21 people from our church. I think...

I love you guys. Time after time, you guys encourage me. You guys make me feel like I belong, that I am treasured, and best of all you keep me accountable. Since school is starting within a couple of days (Tuesday to be exact), I’d love to keep you guys updated on college life at Merced.
I am going to do my best with writing testimonies and posting them here because the Lord MUST be...

A God Testimony!
My beloved youth group friends,
FIRST POST! Better late than never right?! :) So I just wanted to share a quick testimony that happened about a week ago-but it’s clear as day and I cling to it daily. So last Tuesday, I felt the Holy Spirit prompting me to give my friend, Josh, a word of encouragement over AIM and this was the word. “Josh, the Lord is telling me that you are a...
