  • Olympic Figure Skating I never knew China had medal contending figure skating pairs. It was cool watching them compete. Too bad the Canadian pair didn’t win gold even though they seemed to have skated better than the Russian team. Judging is so subjective. By the way, HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR’S EVE! I don’t know why…

  • Chinese New Year Advice Never go into Chinatown the weekend before Chinese New Year unless you have no other choice. I had to walk from one end to the other and back, TWICE!!! Man, people just walk right into you like nothing! And those old ladies can get to what they want, no matter who’s…

  • Woohoo! Everything is up and running again (except sound) thanks to the computer wizardry of my friend Gordon. I was telling him it’s amazing that I got this page running since I’m so computer illiterate. I hate computers and and it seems like computers hate me. I continue to marvel at the wonders of technology.…

  • Boo, I have no internet access at home now. I tried installing a newer version of windows and now it’s not compatible with the software for my modem. New software is on it’s way. I was driving across the bridge today and saw this huge military aircraft fly overhead. I watched it as it flew,…

  • The new Jars of Clay album called The Eleventh Hour is set to come out in March. The songs are really good. They sound more like their first album. Go…go preorder now….go….go now!

  • I haven’t posted in a while, or been online either, for that matter. There is something that is weighing on my heart, but I don’t know what it is. People ask me all sorts of questions and I usually answer most of them with ease. That is, I did until a few nights ago when…

  • Costco Etiquette So I was shopping at Costco today, one of those warehouse membership stores, and they have these booths where people hand out free samples. I go up to one (only one today, ok!) and, being the polite person that I am, asked if I could take one. The guy said, “Of course!” like…

  • Taken from Kristine. It’s this or that Tuesdays, and yes, I’m a day late. But thought this was fun. Feel free to leave your answers also!!! Car or SUV? Car, then if I have money, SUV. Christmas Eve or New Year’s Eve? Christmas Eve. Candy or cake? Candy. Chocolate or vanilla? Chocolate (Dark). Tuesday or…

  • I was watching this show on MTV called “Flipped.” They take people and put them in scenarios representing consequences that might happen as a result of their lifestyle or actions. It’s a pretty good show. For example, today, they had 2 people on, a girl and a guy, who had a history of being promiscuous…

  • Did you know that if you miss a day of work, you’re actually helping people keep their jobs? And it is considered rude to decline your employer’s generous offer of sick days. It’s all in the Hooky Book.

  • Ok, since I’ve had a little time to recover, I figured I’d finally write about my weekend. Warning: the following post is not for the faint-hearted. Friday: People from my fellowship group came over and we had a taco night. Bad season for tacos because lettuce and tomatoes are extremely expensive at the grocery stores.…

  • I finally got around to putting up some pictures that were taken at my friends’ wedding a couple weeks ago. We were at the reception in a nice hotel. The MC, who was the DJ for that night and who was WAY too cheesy, had just announced the wedding party. He then announced the bride…

  • It’s been so cold here lately. It’s supposed to get even colder tonight and tomorrow. Temperatur…

  • Have a look, I finally finished another one of C.S. Lewis’ books. It’s been a long time since I first picked up the book. Minor distractions in life, such as school, always seem to keep me from what I like to do. Lewis is a great writer. As I was reading his book, I could…

  • Many of my friends in my daily email circle were taking this test today. I had to join the bandwagon. I am Pacman. I am an aggressive sort of personality, out to get what I can, when I can. I prefer to avoid confrontation, but sometimes when it’s called for, I can be a powerful…

  • Jonathan went to David . . . and helped him find strength in God. 1 Samuel 23:16 I wanted to post this yesterday, but I was too tired. I finally met with my prayer partner last night, after a long hiatus due to busy schedules. We had a chance to share and pray for each…

  • “The common quest or vision which unites Friends does not absorb them in such a way that they remain ignorant or oblivious of one another. On the contrary it is the very medium in which their mutual love and knowledge exist. One knows nobody so well as one’s ‘fellow.’ Every step of the common journey…

  • For the guitar and worship enthusiasts out there, check out the worship music link in the destinations area of the column on the right. I stole the link from Will. (Will, I hope you don’t mind.) It’s a website with mucho chords and tabs for guitar AND bass! I am constantly impressed by the vast…

  • Yesterday, Hsin and I had just parked and as we were getting out of the car, we heard a lot noise. We quickly walked to the edge of the parking lot and saw a motorcycle down in the middle of the street. It had been hit by a car. The bumper of the car had…

  • Check out today’s cartoon from my favorite comic strip. I feel like the girl in the red shirt. Boo… Free play day today and received yet another student discount with my ID. I think the title of this site should be “How to make use of your college ID.” Went to the SFMOMA and checked…
