I have to say. This is the worst song I've ever heard! MY EARS ARE BLEEDING!!! AHHH!!! Joking, but seriously. Friday Friday Friday! Stop repeating, do you have a speech problem? Secondly... Don't know which seat to take? Take the one with no one sitting there! Is it really that hard? It can't be the weekend all week because if it was, everyone would be idiots. Wow... I can't believe it got so many views...

Btw, you know what would make a good parody? A music video titled Monday with a bunch of nerds. Or a music video titled Sunday with people who are crazy for Christ. XD

Watch the unplugged version. 10x worse. Who ever needs autotune shouldn't sing!

Hundreds of people have died, not know where their loved ones are, or are homeless and is in desperate need of money, shelter, and clothing. The power of a nuclear power plant's cooling system was knocked and forced all the workers to flee.

Something...

Several days ago, I told you that I caught two seagulls while fishing for crabs. Here is the story if you missed it.

If it was one seagull that crashed into my fishing line, I guess it's not likely but possible. Two seagulls crashing into my fishing line almost at the same time, I'd have to say, something like this would only happen once in a million years...

It got me wondering, maybe God wanted me to understand something. Those two seagulls wasn't hurt, I let them go... They are back to a normal life. I've been gone from school for some time. Maybe God wants to tell me that I will have a normal life again, but it depends on if I'm going to keep being scared or go do it. Those two seagulls were really scared, but the first one didn't fight back and was quickly released. The second one, however, did fight back because it was scared. It took us longer to free it, but it was freed. Maybe this is a message for me to go do what I need to do and not be scared for I know it is the only way back to a normal life. If I keep going with the scared feeling and fighting back reality, I will one day still have a normal life, but I'm going to waste more time than it should take.

From this day forward, I will try my best to go do what I need to get done with out being scared.

Thank you Jesus for helping me understand. What a wonderful savior you are. Praise the Lord! Amen. :_)

Got scared the shit out of me twice today. -__-

So I was driving... It was around 90-100 in the Bay Area... It was the afternoon and the sun was blinding... Reflecting off the road, I couldn't see really far... Didn't see the road curve, tried to adjust the A/C... Kept going straight, almost crashed. D: Luckily my mom was like, turn the steering wheel to the left! I was like what the hell! 2 second reaction... Slammed on the breaks (I got advanced breaking, so it doesn't matter) and I jerked the steering wheel after I felt the car slow down quite a bit. -__- On the bright side! There was no cars with-in 200 feet of me (after the sudden jerk on the steering wheel). XD

Well just today, the second time, traffic lights, I needed to make a right turn... It was yieled and my mom was like STOP! YOU NEED TO STOP! I was like WTF? Drove onto the sidewalk. -__- I was like, it was yield! Don't scream random directions at me! XD But I don't blame her, even though it was 10-20 minutes after I almost crashed, my heart was still racing. -__-

What a day! -__- Still things like this happen on the street all the time. Luckily no accidents right? :) Thank God! I really need to learn the voice commands for my car. That way, I wouldn't need to look down...

Wishing I can start over...

Sometimes I wish I can go back in time, back to 7th grade and startover. In 7th grade half way through the year, I noticed I started falling behind, before that I was a happy kid. Nothing I regret doing or happened (ok 1 thing I kinda regret)... Then in 8th grade, that year was terrible, I felt sad, depressed, but I held it in, I pretended to be happy. No one, including my parents, knew I was sad and depressed. In 9th grade,  I fell behind, all the sadness and depression poured out like a bathtub overfilled with water. I really wish I can go back, and warn myself. But wishing is wishing, time travel is impossible as of right now, even if I can go back in time, who knows what damage I might do? LOL But still, I wish I can... I tell myself everyday, God has His plans, I shouldn't feel bad, He will give me something better, He will help me through this. So far He has. He has let me have friends that can help me and talk to me. He has let my friend bring me into Church and for that I am extremely grateful. Positive thinking is the key I think. Something I saw on TV yesterday, it's on this Chinese news channel. That church always advertise there, but something that guy said. He saw this cancer patient pray every morning and thanking God that He has let him have another day of life. If it was me, I'd probably be like kill me, I can't stand it anymore... But yes, positive thinking. It's good for you. Yes, I still kinda wish I can start over, but I'm grateful that I've made it this far without going insane I guess. Praise the Lord! :)

John 13:7

Jesus replied, "You do not realise now what I am doing, but later you will understand." (John 13:7)

Sometimes when something happens, I'd be like why does it have to happen, does God hate me? And usually after a while, I'd see why it happens, and I understand. 

So true. :)

1 Corinthians 10:12-13 If you think you are standing strong, be careful not to fall. The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure.

Romans 8:38-39 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. 

I like how God will never hurt you and how he loves us. I also like every temptation he makes happen is within our limit. Now I think about the past, there was times I wanted to kill myself. Sometimes I'd feel like God hates me, and why I should even pray. Sometimes I'd think, He won't listen, He can't hear me anyways. Always, after that feeling has passed a bit and I kinda come back to my senses, I'd think about what was bothering me. Every time, I see it the other way on around, and really it isn't so bad, sometimes, it's even good! Sometimes I don't at first, but I'd call the Lord's name, and suddenly, it would all make sense. Is there anything more important than living, praising the Lord, and be happy and full of life? No, there isn't!  That's why I liked this verse.

If you are reading this and is feeling bad or depressed, calm down, pray, and you'll feel better. Everything has two sides to it. A bad side and a good side. Nothing in this world has only a bad side and no good side. Plus there is a lot more people that is suffering more than you, and they continue to live, why shouldn't you? If you're reading this, you have internet right? A lot of people don't, you should be happy that you do! Feeling sad is normal, feeling sad always isn't. You can also think about it this way, you've got one life, why spend it feeling sad when you can be happy?

The thing here is, unless it is really time for you to die, God will always have a path for you so that you can continue living. That suicidal or depressed feeling is Satan. If you listen to Satan, then you're screwed. Your job is to calm down, and pray. God will guide you in the right direction, Satan will guide you in the wrong direction.

Praise the Lord! Amen.

Touched by God

Ever since I came to the US in 2001 I think, a lot of people has tried to get me to go to Church. For example, the pastor of the church across the streets, my close friends and families. Yes, I have been to Awana (this kids church program) a few times, but I never really believed. I think it is because I didn't really want to change. I was one of those Chinese Aethiest/Buddhists. Yes, I used think the past three and a half years of my life has been crap and completely ruined my life, but now I believe Christ and go to church, I think it is all worth it. Without these consequences, why would I head into church? He gave me chances before with all those people trying to convince me, but I never listened. So yes, I'm totally ok with the past three and a half years right now, and I feel like he's helping get my life back on track too! So I think I've learned the lesson here. :) I think God has really touched me. :)

Happiness

"He (God) comforts us whenever we suffer. That is why whenever other people suffer, we are able to comfort them by using the same comfort we have received from God". ~ 2 Corinthians 1:24

"When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom." ~ Proverbs 11:2

"Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you." ~ Colossians 3:12-13

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." ~ John 3:16

For the past three and a half years, I've been severely depressed and get really anxious about small things and I felt like my whole life has been messed up because I'm 1-2 years behind in high school (not that I'm one of those kids who purposely skip school, I'm not that kind of person). Recently, I've been feeling like, I've recovered. I've been feeling really full of life and happiness. Happiness I've never had, but similar to the happiness I've had before depression came. What really helped me I'm sure was going to church and believing into Christ. :) God helped me. Those four Bible verses up there really stood out to me and helped me. Every time when I feel depressed, sad, or uncertainty, I'd call on the Lord's name, and immediately, I'd start feeling better and get a feeling on what I should do! I strongly believe God is there, and he loves us all. So if you are feeling depressed or sad, you can just call on the name of the Lord! How wonderful his name is. :D I still feel a bit uncertain about how my future will be, but I'm no longer that worried for I know the Lord has planned out the best for me. So why be worried right?

Also, thanks to everyone that helped me through this rough time of my life. More importantly, thank the Lord for letting all these friends help me. :) Amen!
