Sometimes I expect to be hurt or scared or shocked, but then magically, I’m not so much. At least not at the moment that it occurs. I think maybe it sets in harder, whatever it is that caused these emotions, later than the initial event. A couple of days, weeks, or even [...]
So here’s the deal:
I’ve been given the opportunity to take a ministry trip to China for two weeks this September and October. I will be going with an organization called Partners in Development Worldwide, and we will be going to Shenzhen, Hong Kong, Guangzhou, and other smaller cities and villages. We will be sharing our [...]
So this week has kicked me into overdrive and has made me an official Angeleno (apparently the name by which Los Angeles residents refer to themselves by.)

I don’t feel well today. I was sent home from work yesterday due to almost throwing up and, given the benefits of a real job with sick leave, was debating calling in today. I did, indeed, end up calling in. I initially felt slightly guilty, thinking “well I may feel better in [...]
For some reason, I’ve been watching a lot of movies lately. Here are the ones I can remember:
Smokin’ Aces: I was expecting something so horribly over-the-top that it would be laughable. But really, it wasn’t so bad. I wouldn’t recommend it to just anyone, but it wasn’t a bad viewing. Don’t watch it if you’re [...]
