Three More

I have three more weeks left in the quarter.
I have three more midterms to take before my finals.
I have three more reasons to trust in God.

Tutor Need

I really need a tutor friend. Statistics, Managerial Accounting, and Economics. Maybe I just need to change my major.

Dear Jesus, I do not know what to do. I want to do my best--that You enable me to--in these things, but I am not completely sure this is what You want me to do. Please help me find Your Will. In Your Name I pray, Amen.

By the way, Happy Mother's day to all you mothers. Praise the Lord for my mom! Praise the Lord for the other moms in my life!

P.S. The picture above is from my mom's birthday celebration at Disney's California Adventure with Chef Robert Irvine. I forgot I had a camera, yet again, therefore, did not take pictures during today's luncheon with my family. Happy Mother's Day!

How

How do things like this happen when you don't do anything? I asked Mitch that question when he showed me his phone yesterday. Since then, I've been scrambling for a few lenders. Praise God for Philip and Nicole. I asked Philip to ask his girlfriend, Nicole, if she had an extra phone laying around that we could borrow--and she did! She didn't have the charger, but it's okay, the Lord provides. By the way, the phone she lent us is a SideKick ID, and I feel really challenged. Anyway, Mike M has an extra phone too. Thank God for providing for our needs!

Speaking of God and providing for our needs, it reminds me of my most recent visit to Disneyland with my mom and Mitch. There are a lot of fat birds. Most especially on the Pacific Wharf, near the Boudin Bakery. As they were swooping and sweeping for crumbs of food, I couldn't help but notice how pudgy these birds were! Gosh, Luke 12 : 22-34 never felt so true until then. Okay, maybe not, but it definitely was a good reminder.

Sharing blessings and prayer requests are wonderful. I've a bit of work left to do, so until then.

Half Way

Woo yeah! Let us stroll backwards to the first chapters of my university life.

Time to celebrate the half way mark of my first quarter at Cal Poly. It is so different from the semester system, and I have barely become used to it all. But--Yay! Five weeks have already passed, and so has the day I took three midterms. Although it is done and over with, the exams fail to bring happiness and sense of achievements. Boo.

Weeks one through four were such a bore, but I was able to adapt to my various professors through the course of these weeks. I am grateful for the professors that God has given to me. They are tough, but not too tough. I am just grateful.

Now, enough of school. Yesterday, Mitch squashed a beetle of some sort. No pictures because the creepy crawlies gross me out; however, I did search a little to look for it crushed body to show 'em who is made in God's image, but did not find him--there was only a ring of the innards where the whole body should have laid.

My mom celebrated her birthday at California Adventure. Our good God blessed her with the opportunity to meet and greet Chef Robert Irvine, from Food Network's Dinner: Impossible. That guy is really funny with really huge muscles, and his personality differs very little from what you see on the show. WYSIWYG type guy. God is so wonderful, that He even blessed my mom with Chef Irvine's cookbook, personally autographed for my mom. Blessings, what more could she ask for her birthday? Then dinner with the family at Pompeii's, a wonderful pizza place. Kudos to Philip and Nicole for showing us that place.

And everything else? My time in the Word has taken the backseat for a few weeks, and thus proven to me (once again) that the strength to get through the day comes from God who sustains all things. In my times of weakness and worries, He has reminded me to trust in His work and in the ways He has provided me to walk in. So, let's walk in 'em.

Would've, Could've, Should've

I would've...

I could've...

I should've...

been more productive over the past few months. It feels too soon to return to school after a three and a half month break. Now I don't know if I'll ever have time because I start school tomorrow!
