An encouragement to me after feeling helpless and discouraged.
30. Living in Irvine can be dangerous.
I know that Irvine is one of if not THE safest cities in the nation. Going to Irvine is comfortable, safe, and easy. It shelters you from the harshness of reality and portrays a stable, pretty, and wealthy society. Everyone knows and acknowledges that our economy sucks, but honestly, you can’t tell from walking around Irvine Spectrum or going down to The District. However, I think that...
29. Getting older...ain't so bad.
My birthday came and went, and so has being 21. Everyone always asks, “do you feel older?” And I always think that question is lame because usually it’s a “no..?” (thinking in my head I’m only one day older, why should it make a big difference?)

28. God is so faithful even when I am not.

26. Sometimes, it's okay to sulk?
Seen through the previous post, I’ve been struggling with coming back to school and AACF the past couple days. And tonight, after class and 2 long meetings, I don’t want to be here. I called B when I got home, and almost burst into tears, because I was so upset being here. I want to go back home, where I can watch 24, and go hang out with my friends, and B is in Vegas having fun, while...
24. My brother is engaged.
C IS ENGAGED! How insane is that? Always having a serious girlfriend, the thought never entered my mind that he wouldn’t get married. But after dating his girlfriend for only 8 months, I only met her once, I did not expect it to happen so soon! But I am really happy for him nonetheless. AND I’m really excited to be a bridesmaid! (I BETTER BE!) It’s going to be weird to think that...
