Happy New Year!
This past year has been the most challenging year by far. I went through so many things that almost broke me, almost killed me. I lost so many things I can never gain back; time, friends, and more. I almost gave up when I had nothing to lose, no one to turn to and was lost in the dark. I never thought I could ever show my face again, I was dealing with a lot of mourning and self-hatred.

I keep losing...
I lost yet another battle against insomnia. I have been attempting to change my sleeping schedule before winter quarter begins in January, but all I have managed to do is bring back my insomnia.
Last night I turned off all the lights, turned on my sound machine and attempted to sleep. It was 11PM. I was actually tired so I thought it would work, and it did…for about two hours. I fell asleep...

Awakening.
I can’t remember the last time I have felt this calm and relaxed. My writer’s block has been lifted and I am left with a wide range of material to be placed on paper (or a word processing program).
I really wish this had happened much earlier during my winter break however. I only have about a week before I return to school and face writing, chemistry, calculus, a foreign language and...

Life in a Day
My sister and I recently watched the documentary, Life in a Day. The documentary was made up of videos submitted from around the world about people’s lives on July, 24th, 2011. I was going to submit a video but unfortunately my camera at the time was broken so I could not participate.
After watching the documentary I was inspired to start a new segment by the same name. I will be uploading...

"God Is Able" Worship Night (Hillsong Live...
Last night was one of the most amazing nights of my life! My friends, Daisy, Nancy and I went to the Hillsong Live “God Is Able” Worship Night at The Rock Church in San Diego!
We were so thankful for having VIP tickets, otherwise we would have had to wait in this long line.
We were at the very front row of the floor section :) Any closer and we would have been not the actual...

1 Year Ago...
Dec. 5th, 2010.
I gave my life to Christ exactly one year ago. I remember everything well. I remember the person who prayed with me at 3, almost 4AM, at Black’s Beach in La Jolla, CA. The night was cold and the moon shone like never before; It spotlighted the moment my life changed forever.
Ever since then I begun my search for something more. Yes, I struggled to keep my faith pure and...
