| a lot can happen in 9 months...
since march, i've moved to pasadena, started the marriage/family therapy program at fuller as a full-time student, been dating for 6 months... a lot has changed in the past 9 months!
it's finals week. and i'm trying not to be distracted, but i really did need a break. i just watched twilight with some of the crossway girls and dan... and i have to admit, i loved it. haha. yes, i enjoy teeny bopper romance movies.
so i think i'm gonna TRY to update more often. until next time...or at least after finals... | | |
| happy belated 2008..
2007 has undoubtedly been a year of transitions -
physically (move from japan back to the states...);
career (teacher to... student-to-be);
financially (free of debt to back in debt);
family (new baby, changes in dynamics, endless miscommunication);
church community (first time being a part of a church plant);
friends (re-establishing old ones, making new ones, losing acquaintences, meeting new ones)
friends' new babies and marriages.. and unfortunately, even divorces
changes are inevitable, but every time it happens, i kick and scream... but after it happens, it's not that bad, and i realize that God gives me just enough and what i can handle at the moment. for that i'm so so thankful.
i don't like new beginnings, but i'm slooooooowly learning to embrace this phase of my life and anticipate what He'll do through these new changes. slowly...
oh, and yay, my gre's are over. my scores are not the greatest, but it's decent. i'm just GLAD it's over! so glad it's over. don't know why these tests are so hard for me. :(
oh, and this 'once' soundtrack is pretty awesome. got it from malin, and have been listening to it for weeks. | | |
| no life until the 21st... can't wait till my gres are over.. | | |
| work is so interesting. when you work, you can't wait till the weekends and until you retire. when you don't, you can't wait to get back into it. part time is ok, but it's not consistent, and yes, making and having money does help.. school is interesting, too. studying will be a part of my life for the next couple years, and it was exciting to be back at it after a decade of NOT being in it... but since my life is so different from when i was a college student, it's a lot harder than i had imagined. and not to mention family issues... *sigh* being back in america has definitely been humbling so far.. in so many aspects. i'm learning about dependence on a whole new different level..  oh, and i really do miss good sushi! sharona took me to a great one in little tokyo a while ago, but i miss the accessibility and the good prices. anybody know of any really good (and somewhat reasonably priced) sushi places?
