Ever since I gave up on watching Grey's Anatomy, I've found a new love : Homeland.

Hello Blogger.

It's been 3 years since the last time I posted an entry...

I don't even know where to start.

No time to reminisce, but to just say that I'm back to writing my thoughts/emotions/ideas etc.

Yes, I am still in Korea.
Yes, I am no longer a full-time english teacher.
Yes, I am traveling the world.
Yes, I am still single (not by choice).

Till next time.

time

isn't it scary how time works?

time never stops or pauses for you to catch up. it keeps going and going. there is no turning back.
sometimes i'm scared of time. i want more time, but time only does what it does best. going forward.
you can't cheat time. time is brutally honest. it'll let you know if you're screwing up or if you're doing well.

but what time also does it lets you move on. it won't let you dwell on the past. it'll tell you to stop wasting time and get your butt movin'.

it's a love/hate relationship.

time flies.

my sister and i goofin off. one of our rare moments together.
our last few days of hanging out before time tell's her to go back.
 time also lets us mature and grow up sometimes very quickly.

food!

it's been a long time since i've really updated here... i kinda feel guilty. i need to be more consistent!

last sunday, the nam's took me and my sister (she's visiting korea for a month) to this traditional korean restaurant in bundang. it's a first time for the both of us eating like a 13 course meal. i think my body was a bit shocked! keke, but i LOVED it! i wish i can go again! for 25,000 won (around $25) i think it's a steal!

here starts the food pic porn!

natural beauty

my week has been not one of the best, but it definitely has been an eye opener for me.
my relationship with God has been developing into something mature & beautiful.
he is amazing. he is my provider. he is my shield.
my prayer these days is for him to strengthen me in every aspect & for my faith to mature.

i asked God to make my faith to be big and heavy as a boulder. so, even when there are winds and rain, i would not budge. what he did was even more amazing... he gave me a vision of the grand canyon and told me my life/faith would be like this.
the grand canyon weren't made overnight, over a year, or even couple years; it was made after millions of years from the wind/storm/water.
just like the grand canyon, my life is and was never wrapped beautifully, but instead, it was tossed and turned by the wind and storm, and after years of hardships and struggles, my life is now this. it never ends, but after years, you begin to see the beauty in the faith that you have in God. i'm always being molded into something more beautiful. you see the charm & beauty of the inside more and more every-time after you face the storm.

"the LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom i take refuge. he is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold."
-psalms 18:2
