what have I been doing?
1. Radical 180 Summer Revival Breakout (7/6~7/10)
just like any other years at Asubury Theological Seminary Radical 180 Ministry hosted Youth Revival for a week. Presence of Holy Spirit was strong and healed many youth’s heart and equipped them in a way He desires. I pray many of them continually pursue to live a life for Jesus.
2. Guatemala Mission (7/13~7/31)
Another year if learning and serving at Guatemala. This time once again we went to region of Lake Izabel. Our main village was called Michaka and from there we built a school/church/village center and visited another 6 villages. As we preaching the Gospel and praying for sick people God demonstrated His love and power many different ways and we were able to see His glory.
3. Two weddings
Praise God for two couples whom just tied knots Congratulation to Jonathan and Rachel and Dan and Caroline.
3. Car Shopping.
Yup I’m crazy. I decided to purchase a car then sold my car in 2 days and purchased new one a day after. I drove 8 different cars and ended up purchasing a 2009 black Honda Civic Si Sedan. yup another civic but I’m really happy with this car.
4. Spiritual Journey
Yes I’m writing this in a airplane on the way back home. For a week, SSC youth staff had a blast of fun and resting(?) in Florida. actually not so resting since we were busy visiting places and having lots of fun. BUT it was definitely blessing time for us to spend a week together. Thanks to elder from church who graciously offered us his winter home to us so we can stay and have fun.
4. Near future.
Going back to work starting tomorrow and soon my first semester of graduate course will begin. Plus something new exciting will begin sometime late September or early October. I can’t wait!!
5. Possibility of winter
Visiting Korea and India.
Stay tuned!!!

This is my new car purchased on August 6, 2009. My first car under my name and paying full amount by myself.!!
Yes, I know I purchased another Civic but no longer it’s a coupe and automatic.
Now it is a sedan and 6spd manual!! (How joyful I am to have a sedan!!!)
I love how firm suspensions are, how smooth and nice transmission is, and although it has very low torque how nice and feel nice and tight it is. Only wish to have a bit more power.
It is bit heavier than RSX Type S and bit less power but with LSD I love how it turns in corners.
So far I had it for 4 days and I’m loving it!!!

Good bye 2000 Honda Civic EX Coupe

What a sad moment. I finally let go of my first car ever.
It was originally a car to share in between my sister and I. This car has been 23 different states, 2 different countries, and ran 181,037 miles in past 9 years for me.
All the good memories of getting tickets, getting amazing 40 mpg in a road trip, my source of releasing stresses, hitting a deer, and good 20+ road kills… I’ll miss this car-
Final mileage of the car before selling it to a guy…
You were a good and faithful servant. You’ve been serving my family, me, and many of my friends and church folks in many different ways… Hopefully you’ll be another great servant to your new owner. Although I never gave you a name, you’ll be remembered!
