It feels like it's been forever since I've seen you guys :(
Aw, Iris your trip to Taiwan sounds so fun! I'm so jealous. You should post some pictures! I totally agree though, places like China and Taiwan are fun to visit, but after awhile, it gets old. I can't picture myself ever living there.
Okay, I'll update you guys on what I have been up to. :) I actually wanted to relax this summer, but I think I have scheduled more things than I can handle... LOL. Well first off, I'm working part-time at a Korean dry cleaners. I worked there last summer, and the lady is just the sweetest person ever. It was really chill working there, so when she asked me to come back, I agreed, b/c at that time, I hadn't found an internship yet. But then, middle of May, my mom got me an internship at her workplace, so now I'm juggling between two jobs. It sucks because basically I have no free time during weekdays.
So far, my schedule has been like, work, come home, help cook dinner (b/c I'm learning how to cook! Be prepared to be wowed by my cooking skills come August. Hehe.) and then research stocks ( b/c I joined an investment club at Ross thinking it would help... don't ask me why) and study (b/c my dad has something he calls "review and preview." So I would review my old textbooks and preview my new ones for fall.... yeah.. it sucks) And then for the weekend, its like.. FINALLY chill time! LOL. I feel like I know how adults feel now. xD
Apart from that, I'm hoping to save up for a SLR camera! I've been practicing with my dad's camera hehe. And then scouting around for a church. My home church has no college program, and so my choices are either going to the youth service, which is for high-schoolers, or attending the Sunday morning service with all the adults. The youth service feels a little weird, just b/c it's with younger people, and I don't recognize a lot of the younger kids now... haha I feel so old. But I guess I'll see how that goes. The morning service is conducted in Chinese, so... yeah. Haha, I'm also looking into some other churches with college programs around town.
All in all, summer has been pretty busy, but I think I prefer that to doing nothing. Although, I wish I had more time to just hang out and chill with friends. After all, some bumming around is called for, yeah? My only fear is that I'm going to get so caught up in the work and daily routines that I will push God to the side, so hopefully I can keep in sight the bigger picture.
Hmm that's it for now! I'm outt.
Oh. P.S. I'm thinking about dyeing my hair! Should I go lighter? or darker? Can't make up my mind.
aww yayy good post :)
ReplyDeletereview and preview!! lol very catchy but doesn't sound too fun. it's such a blessing to have legit stuff to do over the summer though...even though it does feel like a burden, it'll train us to be diligent :) a lot of people from home are just bumming but i feel like UM kids all find some kind of work or study to do over summer which is great! i hope your jobs go well and that you get chill time and God time even during the week though :)
oooh dying hair?? how light? how dark? what were you thinking? i'm always too scared to do much with my hair :P though it is shorter right now!
