it's been awhile.

this weekend was full of blasts from the past:
- phone call from steve chin(!) whom i haven't heard from since i left berkeley. it was good to talk to him.
- jae and i met up w/ eugene for dinner. x) a little bit o encouragement before her mcats.
- jae and i met up w/ min jung for drinks. i ended up doing most of the drinking (min had a toothache and jae was driving), but fun to catch up.
- i had a negative blast from the past.. just being reminded of why i hated my life so much in high school. it was a very tough week last week...

...but through it all, God has been good to me. even though bf's usually have been detrimental to me, this time, i've been SO lucky. seriously, kevin's been my sanity. thanks. somehow, God also made it so i ended up reading ecclesiastes during this time. even though that book is slightly depressing, it really has been helping me get through it all, because no matter what happens, the only meaningful thing in my life is God. i need to remember that in the end, nothing lasts except for God's love.

thank you God. for everything. for the good and especially the bad. i would never seek You without the bad, so thank you for loving me enough to send the bad. help me to be joyful for everything because i know that this life isn't mine. i pray all these things...
