Happy Belated 2010!!

I have lived in 2 centuries, 2 millenniums, and 3 decades, and I'm not even 20 yet...

Ya, I'm late, it's February... and the last couple posts have been RIP posts... But HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

I'm in University, and I never have time to blog, not that anyone reads this. I would just like to say that this year has been so much better so far than last year. Art class that is actually art class is SOOOO worth it and amazing. I wake up every day for breakfast, courtesy of a floormate being courteous enough to wake me up, and I"m now on a diet of 'no-sugar, no-fried-foods', which even the healthiest people on my floor are amazed at... apparently not sneaking the occasional chocolate takes a lot of willpower :D

ALSO, though I wasn't nearly as close, and I wasn't nearly as knowledgeable, two of my parents' friends passed away in January... I didn't know them all that well, but RIP Aunty Kit and Uncle MunChoi.

I visited the latter once when he was in the hospital for cancer... The doctors already told him there was nothing they could do, but he was still smiling, still happy, and still so at peace and content with his life, because God was with him, and he was faithful, so he knew where he was going. That kind of faith and strength is amazing, and entirely inspirational.

His son is my age, and we grew up the first couple years together, though I don't know him at all anymore. But his dad and his mom have known my parents since before immigrating, since, like, the early 80's or something. So when everyone who was at the funeral saw me, they (inevitably) told me how similar I looked to my mom, and how similar my brother looked to my dad.
And patted me on the cheek.

Oh joy.

But there was very little sadness in this funeral. There was quiet calm, and a deep sense of loss, but no real sadness, as opposed to the other funerals. I guess it's a testament to how faithful he was, because not only did he know where he was going, everyone else was sure of where he was going as well. He was very close to finishing his Masters in Theology... from what I know about him, he was an amazing man. I kind of wish we had spent more time with him and his family, like we did when I was much younger...

Anyways, I have class in a couple minutes, so I have to get going. A less sad, less depressing post, but still RIP. I swear one day, I'll have a regular mundane happnening post, like "Today, I ate scrambled eggs. Again. Just like every other day." kind of post (which, by the way, today, I did have eggs... haha). Until then... Adieu!
