Day of No Freedom
For the past semester, my church has been part of the Call and Response movement. We are trying to raise awareness and action against modern day human slavery. 27 million people in the world are forced to be slave laborers, sex slaves, and child soldiers. Sex slavery happens in all 50 states of the United States of America. There are 100,000 ( Read more... ) -
scary-er
So...last year I realized I'm afraid of trees especially when it's a windy night. I had the most terribly horrifying walk/pitiful run back home. It was soooooo windy, and I had to pass through sooooooo many trees. The walk from the computer lab to my dorm is about 10 minutes....10 minutes of scary trees that look like they'll break and crush me ( Read more... ) -

Through the Storm

When life is going badly, how can I ( Read more... ) -

So..this semester has been tough indeed. My honor thesis supervisor didnt' make it better. She's pushing me to meet a conference application deadline in two weeks. I guess, the push is what I need.

One True Love
I was just talking to a friend of mine. He asked me why do I do the things I do. Why am I living for God? As I was explaining, I started crying. I was crying because I realized how great God's love is. It's always easy to say "Jesus loves you". Yet when it hits...when it really hits...how wonderful he is; how loving he is; how he loves me no ( Read more... ) -
Jiiiittterrrryyy RAAANT
I have too many papers to write. Recently, I found that my greatest hurdle was actually brainstorming and starting my papers. Right now I'm working on a multimedia project for my education class. In one sitting, I've outlined 3 different ideas just to find myself deleting them to find a new one. Now I feel like I've wasted the past 4 hours. ( Read more... ) -
