Another end

This spring semester is almost over; seven more days! Everyday is running faster and faster, but the rate I am trying to figure out myself is still the same. I feel like I am losing time!

I made a lot of good friends! I also gain a better idea on how to recognize a good friend! After sharing every single thing in details happened on me in this year with my friend, Eric, he commented me that my mind and my emotional status are always different, very fluctuated. It doesn't surprise me when I hear it. Just a kind of personalities though. I know that I am still observing my characteristic; when will be the end?

Does it sound depressed? No, not at all. It's about life! Some of us have to go through something which allow us to be the person we suppose to be. When the end is coming, be ready to take a break! After each break, another new journey that will need your personality and your attitude to move on; new people and new things!

Looking for my passion

What is my passion? I have been thinking about my passion since the media law class this morning. I have been trying not to cease to think anything! I like travelling; I like to perform; I like to act; I like to deal with people; I like to create; I like movies; I like to feel the world; I like to help people; I like to make peace; I like fashion; I like to express feeling...etc.
Still, the question is: what do I like? I just registered all my classes for the Fall semester 2010; I still don't know exactly what I want to study. When the time I came here to BYU Idaho, I was debating myself if Business is the right major for me. But I chose Communications. I feel that I chose the right direction and area, but then I didn't know what to choose between Advertising and Public Relation. But absolutely I know I like to have my career related to event management. It will be great if it is related the the film industry.

The teacher shared his insight with us about passion. He encouraged us find something to do, which we have passion on. And keep it going in the rest of our life. If we do so, we will have better understand what life is about!

I wish I have even more courage to get further away from my comfort zone; give myself a chance to try the things I like even if they seems risky!

You will never know Him unless you are willing to act upon it

I have been a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for nine years since I was baptized on July 8, 2001! I would have never imagined all the blessings coming along in my life since that day when the sister missionary talked to me. I am thankful for all the missionaries who have taught me! They were the servant of God! They showed me how I can look for the truth, the happiness and the purpose in this life! I did pray to know for the truth of the Book of Mormon; the Holy Ghost did testify to me that our Father in Heaven and His beloved son, Jesus Christ, had appeared in front of Joseph Smith to answer his faithful prayer. He was called as the first latter-days prophet and to restore the church of Jesus Christ on this earth. I know that Jesus is the Christ; He did choose to descend from Heaven to sacrifice His life and atone for our sins. His love is kept extending to us through His servant, the living prophet, President Thomas S. Monson, today!


I testify that all these things are true! I would have never known if I didn’t open my heart to pray for all these things! No one would have ever expected that inadequate man I used to be nine years ago has became the person I am today, that I can solemnly testify all the things here. But I know that God knew it. I am his Child. He helps me to learn and to grow in my life; he blessed me to be a missionary; he blesses me to receive education in BYU Idaho; he blesses me to have challenges and tribulations so then I can become stronger!

I invite each of you to keep being willing to live in and act upon the teaching of the restored gospel. It may not be easy, but I can promise you with my life that if you do so, you will be blessed by truly knowing that you are a child of God. Amen.

Celebration of the 4th of July

I think I don't really like Rexburg that much! My roommate, Jimmy, has always been very nice to me since the first day we know each other. He invited me to celebrate the 4th of July with his family this year! It was a very good excuse for me to get away from Rexburg! As a matter of fact, I did have a great time in Idaho Falls! His family is so funny! We did a lot of things together! Parade, big lunch, BBQ, firework...etc! For some reasons, I don't know exactly why, but I miss Hong Kong! I want to go back and hang out with my friends! I have never been that "trunky" since being here! Not even during the Christmas, and not even the Chinese New Year time. By the way, I am not really a big fan of Chinese New Year.

I really have a good feeling about the 4th of July even though I don't know the history much. Perhaps I do have love on the people of this country. I served my two years mission in this country though! Sometimes I ask myself, "what happened if this world has only one nationality?" I don't think I will ever receive any answer. But I know that, we are all the same to God as we are His children! He loves each of us!
