"Stay close to anything that makes you glad you are alive."
even though I suck with a camera, I still don’t take as many photos as I wish I did. the same thing could be said with journaling too. both annoying to do at the moment but worth the investment. reading old journal entries or looking back on old photos are one of the best feelings. hopefully I’ll make more of an effort! anyways, memories from the past month!
today was a good day :)
-Church was good
-Had pho in this 93 degree weather
-Said byebye to Michelle as she goes on to fly off to England.
-Ate at some random Greek restaurant in SF, which turned out to be really really yummyyyy

Yaaaay for 21. Finally celebrated my birthday today. It was hectic at first but all ended well. Took a trip out of town with a good group of eight of my closest friends, not too big not too small. Muy interesante shaved ice. Walking around one of the most beautiful and swanky places I’ve ever seen. Was treated to macaroons. Listened to dope music, danced, and was even serenaded happy birthday by the band. Had a bomb dinner with the most crispy delicious seafood pancake in the world. Got fresh hot roti buns. So much yummy food, I’m so happy. Had a night drive back home listening to Nujabes, one of my favorite simple pleasures in life. Chilled and laughed late into the night with wonderful people and opened gifts from wonderful people. They bought me a beer pong set LOL and drinks and I had my first drink since I was 19, when I decided to stop and wait until I turned 21. We also played a game of King’s Cup. OkrrrrRRRrrrrrrr. Ended the night in the best way reading handwritten birthday notes ater everybody went home. Not at all turnt up haha but a bit lovey-dovey, so I’m going to say I’m so appreciative I love you alllllllllllllll :)))

Today is my birthday! I turned 21! (⌒▽⌒)☆
Last night was I surprised/tricked into the most delicious homemade filet mignon dinner. Later, more wonderful friends surprised me at midnight with oh-so yummy chocolate cake. Flowers, steak, chocolate. My favorite things with some of my favorite people. Ahh the people in my life are so thoughtful, I don’t know what to do with myself. I wish I could better express how thankful I am :)
Today was a long day and tonight will be a long night preparing for tomorrow’s long day. I feel overwhelmed. I’m sad that this was a lonely Monday birthday doing mostly work.
Hopefully it will pay off. Ah man, I’m twenty one! I can’t believe it. I can’t wait to celebrate this weekend and eat more yummy food. ヽ(;▽;)ノ
This is what the Lord says: “You will be in Babylon for seventy years. But then I will come and do for you all the good things I have promised, and I will bring you home again. For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. In those days when you pray, I will listen. If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me. I will be found by you,” says the Lord. “I will end your captivity and restore your fortunes. I will gather you out of the nations where I sent you and will bring you home again to your own land.”
To be honest, I tend to have a ‘grass is greener on the other side’ mindset but I’ll remember that everything is beautiful in its time.
