| | Wow.... I haven't blog in quite some time. Actually, we were talking about it in fellowship recently. I shared how times have really changed, in the last few years, the popularity of blogs has skyrocketed. And we shared how some of us are too "lazy" to keep a blog. hahaha... I think I might be such a person, I always have stuff in my mind that I want to blog but once I get the chance, I'll be too lazy to actually do it. Enough about the blogging stuff, so much stuff has happened since my last update. Let me start with the more recent ones, since these are the ones that I remember vividly about. (getting old, losing my memory :p) Went to California Adventure with family this past weekend. It was a lot of fun. I really like it over there, it's a more "kick-back" place than Disneyland. It's like a mini Disneyland for kids and family. Very nice, lines for rides aren't long (I think max waiting time for that day was 15 min?) Seeing how my nephew and niece interact with the different Disney characters and how my nephew would get scare on EVERY SINGLE ride was pretty fun. :) Owen talking with Crush and Dor riding the Tower of Terror... man, it was one unique experience. Went to San Francisco for five days with family 2 weeks ago. The trip was pretty cool. We didn't go to a lot of places, there were times that weren't very pleasant. But overall, I felt that it was a good trip. For instance, they have a new parking lot at Chinatown, and at each parking spot, they have a fortune (like fortunes from fortune cookies) printed on it. 
I also got to see how fortune cookies get made. It's pretty cool. And man, the food at San Francisco is both cheap and good. If I have the chance, I would want to go again, maybe with friends next time? :p 
Church stuff has been ups and downs lately. Mainly stressing over VBS and retreat. Sometimes, even though there is nothing to stress about, I would still feel this sense of uneasiness within me. It's just very frustrating. For instance, I was stressing over the price of the retreat for a very very long time. The longer I wait, the more frustrated I was. I keep hearing voices in my head, like having a conflict within my own mind. I would try to persuade myself to lean in one or the other direction. But thankfully, God made the decision for me. Now that's out of the way, I feel so much more relieved. One might think that it's not very hard to make such a minimal decision, however, to me it felt like an epic battle. I just don't know how to describe it. Hopefully, I can grow closer to God. Actually, I don't hope, I know I will grow closer to God if I have the desire/will to do it. Enough venting about church stuff, let's blog about something else. I feel like recently, my mood has been low/down. I am often frustrated about different things. I often feel like I lost a sense of direction. With faith, family, future, marriage.... I feel so pressured at times. I would try to not think about it but only having it to come back and haunt me later. Man, I truly dislike these feelings. Sometimes, I would think is this an alarm from God? Or God trying to show me or tell me something through these thoughts/feelings? I do not know. Hopefully, I can find that sense of direction soon. :) |
