I smiled.

I was just walking around and thinking about the past 12 months, what a rewarding year. I very much am grateful of the things I saw, the ones I met, the roads I walked on. I thank Heavenly Father for many wonderful gifts.

So I am here, quite settled. That's when I began viewing many dear friends' updates on xanga. I am not anymore Sister Lai, well at least no one calls me like that now. And yet, the special arrangement that's been made for me, I may one day again be a sister missionary again and I can't wait when this day comes again.

The down side of what I was thinking: I am home, and I am slacking, in some ways, *laughed*. You have no idea.. Again, one of my goals for next years is as typical like the one I made in 3 years ago -that is - stopping being such a slacker.

Opps, I have gotta go, a brief update of me..

Currently working, we make graphic chips, this industry is so new to me but I love what I do every single day. Time goes fast here at work. Everyone's been so cool and kind. Everyday I learn something new. I am looking for an apartment, and a car. It's an adventure. My family is doing well. Please not to worry. Again, I thank how even though we may not understand everything but we are provided an assurance that everything's gonna be alright.

To be conitnued.

 

 

May the new year of boar brings you a very fat and full year of happiness, health, success and more.

an inspiring entry i read last night, it's from Anson explaining how a "pre-missionary" can prepare for his/her mission. It's the "Half and Half" theory, as I would call it, which describes a person can own two equal parts/characteristics (skillful and spiritual) so s/he may become a great tool in preaching the gospel.
Church was lovely yesterday, it has always been. But I miss my girls so much. I watched the videos we took when we were in Hawaii, I laughed badly 'cause we were so silly. Thankfully I get to talk to them all the time. I am listening to Mika's Grace Kelly. It makes me wanna jump around and sing and go crazy... Last weekend dad and I visited my brother and some of my relatives in Chico. Chico is such a loving place to live. Though it's small and there are cows and farms around. But it's a comfortable feeling by knowing the years I grew up there, safely and happily. So I wanna spend a few days there, to enjoy all the delicious food like the desserts from Upper Crust and the great Mexican food. Oh! I will also get to shop at Lulu's, and learning piano again. I think it'd be helpful if I know how to play for at least a couple of hymns whether for mission and the years to come... although I am sure there are gonna have tons of sisters who can play so well. Oh well, at least I know something. Even though it's a very tiny piece or it may be the simpliest song in the whole world. I just can't wait. And you know, Lion Tiger is whom I look up to 'cause I think he plays very enjoyable hymns, most importantly is he plays them by heart.

Love love love~ la la la~~
