updates!

If people ask me how I'm doing or how my day was, my typical response without thinking is "it's okay". And yeah, it's been okay. Haha, yes, I know it is very vague...I guess I've been conditioned to just say "it's okay" :P So the past two weeks and well up to today has been rough! Rough in that I had my last accounting midterms of my undergraduate career!! :O whaaat! hahahahaha, it's so exciting to be THAT much closer on being done and graduating - it is about time! Even though I will be in school for another 4 months, it is soooo exciting that I'm almost done!!! waahooooo!!! I'm really thankful for the past 4 years, God has been good and faithful and it's been fruitful for me (heeeh, I'm getting wiser? :D) Just a month and bit to pull through before this term ends! 

I feel that I've been really studious this term, since beginning to now. And yet, I'm still always behind on my studies -____- I guess, I've never mastered managing my time over the past 4 years. And even being studious DOES NOT translate into marks.....I've accepted defeat on that. But still working hard!! Still doing my best! :) And it is the constant reminder that I am more than my marks, more than my school cause yeah, it's pretty defeating when you receive marks back and you just can't help but wonder why or how you did so poorly. But you learn and move on. So yeah! I've been learning to continue to delight in the Lord, depend on Him and keep myself desperate for Him (and it is hard to all these things but must keep trying and praying!!) :) :) 

Other than that, I was reminded yesterday how blessed I am. I was studying for my psych test today (my babies course) and I was reading about how parents raise children. I was very touched that I was raised in an environment where my family loves and cares for me, and that is very crucial to a child's development!! I then called my mother and started to tell her about what I'm studying and relating it to me as a child. Hahahhaa, we then started to list out items that I really wanted as a child and how she went to buy them for me.....ITS SO EMBARRASSING when I realize the things I wanted as a child...most of them are because my friends and peers have them..like wooooow, what a follower -_____- no unique individual style!!! Like those white shoes with a changing flower design from reebok looool to this guess purse I really really wanted but then my friend ended up buying it and I was furious. LOOOOOOL aww, the pain I put my mother through. The only item that was actually a good investment is my pencil case hehehehh, that has been with me for quite some time ($10 + tax put to good use, but at that time $10 was worth a lot more if you know what I mean bahahahaha time value of money). So I really enjoyed that conversation with her and thanked her for being patient, loving, caring and willing to spend all that $$$$ on me. 

Am I still in my korean phase? YUUUP. RM makes me laugh a lot and I really enjoy it heheheheh

In summary, God is good! I may have restless and sleepless nights for the next month or so but I'm sure that I'll be okay :) Things are definitely changing around me but nevertheless, I will continue to trust and depend on Christ!!
