thinking about a lot of ways i want to change for this last quarter. the shortcomings of my character have been revealed, particularly in this past quarter, so i feel called to improve upon those in the short time i have remaining at stanford. there is so much to do in so little time; where did it all go? like a shadow in the night, our time here has disappeared so quickly. the cyclic character of time once again has brought me to the end of the beginning where i feel as if i am just beginning to gain a foothold on who i am as a person and discover my place at stanford, just as it did in high school. why now? why like this? because the sense of urgency that is conferred by the closing of another year has pushed me once again to reevaluate and strive to find the answers to the aforementioned.

a prayer:

as it all comes to a close, let me stay checked in to the present. don't let me look forward without living here and in the now. help me to enjoy each moment with a passion for life that i have not enjoyed since my high school days. as i look forward to continuing in friendships in these last months, help me to establish a sense of balance in my life. i cannot do it on my own. give me perspective on what really matters in life and allow me to be a man of integrity and one who loves the people around me rather than myself. amen.

shout out to daniel yu. was in monterey park this weekend and thought of the korean hospitality imparted to me by you and yours the last time i was there. dodgers are legit this year. holler.

shout out to mike nguyen. sorry for blogging in spanish. i guess i'd be mad if you blogged in vietnamese...although, in my defense, it would be much harder to translate on Babel Fish.

viennese ball was tight. my date, linda, was a sport and tried out some swing with me. turns out she had a couple of tricks up her sleeve as she told me that she didn't know how to social dance at all. we're not too bad for first timers.

helen kim...you rock my sox. you've been nothing short of a great partner in ministry this year. i appreciate your friendship a lot. don't date anyone soon! we're losing our draw group to boyfriends and girlfriends slowly, but surely. seems like you're next in line.

shout out to grant sohn. it was good to see you tonight; i'm glad you came through like the buck head girls. we need to chill soon. holla.

i feel the Lord moving a lot in my life and around me. nice to feel close again with God.

dust.

i think i will start updating in spanish because i'm not taking any this coming quarter and i need to practice for the spring. not that there's a huge readership, but...

estoy pensando en muchas cosas ahorita. es que, durante el cuatrimestre, muchas cosas pasaron y fue muy dificil entender la razon por que ocurrieron. es necesario para mi a tener fe en el Señor para que yo estare de buena mente y no pensando en estas cosas con frecuencia. la verdad es este: estoy preocupado sobre algunos de mis amigos y una de mis parientes. la realidad es que no puedo ser la respuesta o el que da las respuestas. tengo control en ningunas de mis relaciones porque el control pertenece a Dios.

por ejemplo, cuando estuve hablando con mi abuela hoy, ella me dijo que tenia duda en el hecho que Jesucristo era Dios. esta mujer que ha tenido fe en Dios por tantos años ahora tiene dudas...es algo que me hizo muy triste. la realidad de esta situacion es que no estoy domino en la idioma español. entonces, como puedo explicar a ella en español como yo tengo fe en el hecho que el era la encarnacion de Dios? tuve que explicar mi fe en ingles pero pienso que no fue suficiente para que ella puede entender mi argumento.

a pesar de estas cosas, durante una conversacion con una de mis amigas, yo llegue a la realizacion que no puedo hacer nada sino orar. todo regresa a la conclusion que necesito orar mas en el Espiritu Santo. Si no, el Señor no puede esuchar nuestros deseos y nuestras preocupaciones.

desde ahorita, deme la disciplina para que yo seria una persona de gran fe. de a mis compañeros del dormitorio fe para que volveremos a personas que estan llena de amor por nuestros amigos y la gente en nuestros dormitorios.
