Every Thanksgiving, I try my best to utilize this time to count my blessings...because it is so obvious, I am a blessed (maybe spoiled) 21-year old who is living her dream. I am breathing, living without pain and living with my healthy family. I am studying in my dream program and en route to becoming the educator that I have always wanted to be. I am able to spend money on the occasion food court meal and afford a slice of Whole Foods cake.

I am thankful for my fellow soldiers, who fight the battle with me in the forefront of ministry everyday. The brother and sisters-in-Christ who attend countless meeting and have impromptu discussions about how to make our ministries more effective and fruitful. Often times, we are all working

It all started with Jason Chen and Arden Cho’s cover of “Everytime” from “Descendants of the Sun”and now I’ve been drowning in something that I thought was too foreign and bizarre to me.

Through their love for the art of creating/composing/producing/performing music, you don’t necessarily need to understand the language to enjoy it. Somehow, they are capable of showing their audience the emotions and present social issues through their artistic performances. -           The full package → undeniably, the entertainment industry has created people that are the perfect package. People can sing/dance/speak eloquently/be entertaining/relatable/border-line unreal! -           Live! → Listenin
