Record sleep!

So for some reason, I was really tired and slept at 10:30 pm or so and woke up at 8 am!!

EDIT: I think I figured out why my body wanted to sleep so much so early…  I’m feeling sick.

“Perspectives” by Kutless

So I was listening to my mix on the way back from our Connection Group meeting from church tonight… when I listened to (again) Kutless‘ song “Perspectives“.

The chorus was what hit me… it goes like this… “ Why can’t you see that freedom is sometimes just simply another perspective away” That is some heavy ****!! We always think of freedom as a physical thing… be it from a prison or a country. However, with God, the freedom is in the perspective of the beholder. That’s why and how (Apostle) Paul was able to live like a free man while being imprisoned. That’s how (and why) Christians are able to live in countries like China, North Korea, and Lebanon.

So the question I want to leave you with is… “What perspective do you live in?”

Quote of the Day

“Sacrifice without pain is not a sacrifice.”

–  Soojin Jang  

She said this few days ago as we were discussing some family matters and it couldn’t have made more sense!  It’s called sacrifice because it takes something from us…  oh wise, Soojin… teach us your ways!    But seriously, that is way too true…

Soojin’s Naturalization & The Longest Day

So today was THE DAY for Soojin… she is now an American! 
Please send her your regards… she can now moan and complain about the politicians like we do!! 
So what made today one of the Longest Day for me?
Here’s the recap…

1. Get up at 5:30 am to drive the family to Cyfair area in this horrid cold rain!
2. Traffic near the area is horrendous as nearly 2000 naturalized citizens and family showed up!
3. We left at 11…
4. Caught lunch at Pappadeaux near Gessner… way too salty dirty rice & blackened catfish! 
5. Drove to Social Security Services branch in Pasadena and waited two hours in the car while she was waiting.
6. Got back home to Clear Lake and dropped the family off.
7. Took my ol’ Honda to Nick’s place for oil change & state inspection.
8. Went to Verizon store ’cause my i730 PDA phone touchscreen decided to go AWOL on me.
9. Got home at 6:30 pm.
10. Went to Bible study at Formosan Church in west side
11. Got back home at 10:30 pm

Whew!  I’m exhausted… and the phone not wanting to work with me didn’t help either…  Good night…

Video Skype & Best Buy Anna!

So we finally got video Skype to work with my parents!!



That’s Anna speaking with grandma. It was pretty decent… not to mention free!!

And here’s Anna getting into BestBuy plastic bag! No kidding!

Silly girl… maybe I can sell this to Best Buy?!!
