Yellow Bird...

(Author: Rachel Yang)

Once upon a time there was a gang called Yellow Bird. They were the most notorious group in town and everyone shivered at the slightest whisper of “Yellow Bird.” The leader of that group, Sao-Dawg, was known for his skills in Fishing-Pole-Kite making, his weapon of choice. Everyone knew that once he flew that kite and reeled it back in, a neck of an enemy was doomed.

So one day, as Sao-Dawg was walking in the dark alley without his posse, his arch enemy, Rebel-Rach came and stopped him in his tracks. She said, “Sao-Dawg, give me your Fishing-Pole-Kite, for you have killed too many!”
Sao replied, “Not by hair on my chinny chin chin!”

So they fought back and forth, punch after punch, dodge after dodge, only to find themselves worn out. So Rebel-Rach thought of a master plan, her finishing move, Wedgie-Wedge! She built enough momentum, ran towards Sao-Dawg in full speed, tackled him down, and pulled his Yellow Underwear over and on top of his head!
Sao-Dawg obviously gave up the Fishing-Pole-Kite at that point, surrendered, and the world lived happily-ever-after.

The End

A Man has many dreams, one made it all possible.

Chase...

(sighs) I opened my eyes and saw what was real,
depended on reality t.v shows and waited on the deal.
What could of happen to me and you,
what happen to the spark that grew.
We ditch it, ate it, and threw it all away,
they found it, took it, and replaced it with a spare.
How can I be real with you,
How can I show my inner most being.
Will you believe in me,
or will you just turn away and start walking.
Whatever comes, whatever burns,
whatever satisfies your soul.
May you remember the Lord our God and what he did for you.
May you encounter God's power and loving hands for you.
I'm not here to judge, I'm not here to point,
I'm not here to tell you a lie.
But I'm here to be, by your side.

It is 3:31am Friday morning right now. Why am I still up? Wal-Mart, Guys, Gals, school, Spring Formal, bad sleeping habits, and emails. 3:33AM...probably should go to sleep.

The Simplest thing can become the most difficult thing.

In my days...

Here I go off again talking non-sense. On a serious note I fear of getting back into a relationship. I don’t want the heart ache anymore. I don’t want to see or hear a girl cry again. I don’t want to break her heart. If I was to ever want to see a girl cry, I would want to see her cry happy tears. I would like to know that her heart aches for people who are not loved. I want to know that her heart breaks for the homeless, the orphans, the ill, the sick and poor, those who are in search of God’s truth. Why go through the pain and misery when you can avoid it?!

Sighs...maybe it’s just me. Maybe I’m thinking way too much here. However, I cannot avoid the very fact that I do desire a partner, a wife, a helper. She is not just my helper, but I am her helper as well. People seem to ask the question, "What do you look for in a wife?". To answer that...well someone who is willing to learn with me, to cook with me, to explore with me, to grow with me, to correct me and be corrected, to have fun with me, to sing with me, to live, laugh, pray together, and love together.

Just Me...

I’ve tried so hard to understand the will of God and maintain a steady relationship with Him. What am I doing that’s wrong here? Because sometimes I just don’t get it anymore?! I may look like someone who knows it all and got life all figured out. But deep down inside I am lost and searching for the right path in life. Making my way through the sentimental thoughts and keeping it real is harder than I thought. Look at what I have become. What do you see? Well on a side note: I have followed Jesus Christ for only 3 years. I accepted Christ at a young age but did not know why I did it. I wanted to get baptized because my friends were doing it. So why am I here today at a Christian University studying to become a Pastor?
Maybe someday I’ll have it all figured out. But it will be hard to prove it all to you. I wish we all could just come along and walk together, learn together, eat together, and love together. I know this is not me but it is whom I wish to do and eventually become. I have run into obstacles in life and it is hard to go over it all by myself. Sometimes I wish there were other people there with me. Sometime I wish they weren’t there. I don’t want them to go through the pain and misery with me. But how can we learn and grow if we are not exposed to such matters.
This year I have encounter God’s power and there is nothing better than that I tell ya! It was not easy to take it all in at first. But after the first encounter, I’ve begun to be sensitive to God’s available healing power. I know it sounds weird and all, but when you encounter God’s power there is no clear way to explain it so that people will understand it with you. I suppose it doesn’t matter how you feel and what you think about this. I do hope that you’ll eventually encounter God’s power someday you’ll be in awe and wonders how I once was.
The semester is coming to an end and I have nothing planned for the summer. I am well aware of the hot summer days alone in the dorm. Restless night after work and new relationship being built is expected this summer. Maybe I should wander off on an adventurous mission trip and see what is out there for me. Maybe I should just sit back and be quiet and allow God to speak into my life. Maybe I should learn how to play a new song on the guitar, sing some new tunes for the lonely summer stars.

Here it comes...

So I just found out that I only have 3 more classes to take in order for me to graduate. I was stoked to hear this great news. So that means I only have one more semester with my friends here at Simpson University. I have to get the most out of it so I decided to move back onto campus. It is pretty refreshing and exciting to move back on campus. I do hope that the community will strengthen and grow together.
