| so i haven't had much time to update this thing for a while due to all the corps stuff and academics of college. However, seeing that I have about a half an hour of down time, I think i'll give you guys an update on how I'm doing. The corps has been emotionally, mentally, and physically straining. All the rules that we ahve to remember, all the statements we have to say, all the wiring of uniforms and rooms, all the PT (physical training). The first two weeks of the corps pretty much sucked. I'm not going to lie to you. However, our first football march-in was last saturday into Kyle Field. While we were marching, there were literally thousands of people lined up all the way from the Quad to Kyle Field just to watch the corps march in. Then we marched into a Kyle Fields filled with 77,000 screaming aggie fans. oh my goodness, what a rush that was. It was amazing being able to march across Kyle Field in front of 77,000 fans. Then after we won the football game 35-3, the fish corps members rushed the field and tackled the yell leaders on the packed football field. Then we carried them off to the fish pond where we had the victory yel practice. What an amazing experience. That one saturday night made all the crap that I went through for the corps very much worth it. Only one word comes to mind when I think about Saturday....AMAZING. Now a new week has started. Hell starts all over again this week with three mile runs in the mornings, class sets (110) of pushup, situps, and flutter kicks, afternoon PT in the blazing sun, making all these retarded statements, eating like retards in Duncan Dining Center, and all the other stupid crap we have to do throughout the week. BUT it'll all be worth it come this Saturday when we get to march into Kyle Field again and watch the Aggies beat the hell out of ULALA (University of Louisiana-Lafayette) | |

It's a long one....brace yourselves.Well, today, since I don't ever have anything to do...I actually went down my subsciption list, and I read all of the recent posts of some of my friends. What I noticed was that a few people posted some pretty deep and intimate things. I also went through my last few posts, and they were all just pictures and what not, so I've decided to post something a little more deep and intimate.So...these past few weeks i've been super bored and ultimate unproductive. I quit my tutoring job after Camp Impact because I'm going to off to college very soon, so I just sit at home and watch my downloaded movies, some of which are pretty good, namely Chaos, the Zodiac, 16 blocks, United 93, Flight 93, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, etc etc. Anyway, yesterday, Kenny, Jason, and I went to Cinco Ranch High School just to visit and to give us something to do. however, as I walked through the crowded halls of CRHS, I realized how much I enjoyed high school and how comfortable I was in high school. I say that I didn't enjoy Bellaire, but i guess deep down inside, I really did like BHS. I was really "comfortable" there. I had a lot of friends. I had good teachers. I got pretty good grades. I enjoyed writing for the Three Penny Press. I took pleasure in the challenges of the International Bacclaureate program. I was fond of the rigorous AP program. I even appreciated all the studying I was forced to do. However, i'm about to leave all of that very, very soon. I am leaving for College Station in a matter of days, tuesday, August 15th, to be exact. I'll be leaving my plethora of friends, whom most are going off to UT...I have already left my youth group of almost 10 years. I'll be leaving my comfort zone. I guess, leaving your comfort zone has both its benefits and detriments, but I just don't want to leave so soon... College will be a lot of fun, and it will be really different. REALLY different. I am now a member of the Fightin' Texas Aggie Corps of Cadets, which I still question why I really joined...I'm not only leaving my comfort zone, I'm LEAPING out of it. I went from AP/IB student to AirForce ROTC. I went from someone who had plenty of friends in HS to an awkward college student who doesn't really know anyone at TAMU. I went from a kid who never has been away from his mother for more than a week to a college student who will be away from his mother for months at a time. I went from a HS student who completes all of his studies by 8 p.m. to a cadet who will be doing physical training from 530 to 730. I went from a believer who never missed church on Friday night to a student who will be doing midnight marches on Friday nights before football games. Like i said before, I'm LEAPING out of my beloved comfort zone. Don't get me wrong, I'm very excited to be going off to college. And I do not regret my decision to go to TAMU instead of UT, Vanderbilt, or Cornell. I also do not regret joining the AirForce ROTC Squadron 2 aka Gator 2. I do not regret leaving my old youth group. I do not regret any of my decisions. I prayed about all of them, and I think that God showed me the right path through His wonderful (and quite obvious) signs, whether it be scholarships, people, or relationships. I am very anxious and excited about going off to Texas A&M University. I am a little nervous, seeing that I don't really know anyone over there, but I am thrilled to meet new people, maybe even Miss Right *wink wink* Since the summer is quickly dwindling away, I'm going to take this oppurtunity to wrap up my summer with a few words. This summer has definitely been one of my most spontaneous, fun, emotional, exciting, productive summers. My summer started out with a very spontaneous introduction to two of my close friends, Kenny Yu nad Stephanie Leung. Kenny was met at Starbucks before school ended, and then Kenny rid me of my hatred for Steff, and we have become very close over these past few months. JSK will never be forgotten, you guys. Also, a few other random friends that I have met and became attached to are the infamous Jamie Hsu, Christina Huang, and Susan Chou. You three girls are pretty funny. I have also percolated into a wonderful youth group at WHCC. I have been blessed with friends there. I have been honored with the oppurtunity not only to serve on the WHCC youth worship team, but I also had the amazing opportunity to serve of the WHCC Impact worship team, which was an outstanding blessing. Everyone at WHCC has been astoundingly nice, except for Winnie Cheung. She's my favorite, but she's definitely mean. lol. Also, Impact camp this year was unquestionably the best Impact Camp I have ever been to. I was so blessed at this year's camp. I learned so much from not only the speaker and my counselors, but I learned a lot from my fellow campers through the way that they worshipped and the was that they fellowshipped with one another. This year's sharing time at camp was amazing. I was so encouraged to see people practically fighting over the microphone. I was also blessed by all the encouraging E-grams people wrote to me. i was so amazed by the numbers of hands raised and number of people jumping for God on the last two worship sets. God was truly amazing. Also, the Hillsong United concert at Lakewood church a few weeks ago will never be forgotten. What an amazing concert. I was so encouraged by the words that United sang and by all the worshipping that 40,000+ people did. I am also very looking forward to Texas A&M's Impact Christian camp, which is coming up on tuesday. I am very excited. I'm also anxious about FOW, Freshman Orientation Week, aka BOOTCAMP coming up the 20th. And of course I'm excited about starting school on the 28th and hte first TAMU football game Sept. 2nd. God has blessed my summer and my high school career. As I go off to college, I will never forget all the rigors of high school, namely the IB diploma. I'll never forget the friends I've made in high school and this summer. I'll never forget always walking into Calculus late and then falling asleep. I'll never forget Ms. Davis yelling at me and Jonathan Huang about nothing. I'll never forget falling asleep in AP Bio with Will, jennifer, and sylvia. I'll never forget all the fun I had in newspaper class doing nothing. I'll never forget all the fun times I had at lunch with Gary, joseph, david, and others. I'll never forget MRs. Tsay and never understading what she's saying because she always spoke to me in chinese. I'll never forget the "list" i made in HL and Mr. mazzoni figuring it out. I'll never for Mrs. Bagley's English class where my little corner never read the books, but always managed to get good grades in her class because of our complex cheating system. I'll never forget Theory Of Knowledge and Mr. Casteel's ridiculous laugh and Mr. Wolf and crew destroying me, matt, jay, and tina's IB TOK presentation. Bellaire High School was awesome. I will miss everyone at Bellaire very much. I'll never forget all my brothers and sisters at KCCH. I'll never forget all the arguments i got into with peter, joseph, tim, and sarah. I'll never forget all the good times I had on worship team with renee, suzzy, joseph, peter, tim, ashley, elisabeth, sarah, andrew, and PD. I'll never forget all the arguments I got into with PD. I'll never forget all the things that PD taught me both musically and spiritually. I'll never forget the beautiful girls of KCC: narae, june, cujean, ashley, elisabeth, sarah, sarah, jeanne, janie, suzzy, renee, elise, amanda, grace, jennifer, and anyone I happened to miss. I'll never forget the guys of KCC: joel, josh, daniel, danierrrrrrr, kenny, sam, yoon, james, james, joseph, tim, peter, david, david, david, dennis, james, joseph, andrew, and anyone else i happened to miss. I'll never forget leaving the youth group and how much i wanted to go back, but i felt that i was called to leave. I'll never forget my new friends at W. I'll never forget serving on the youth worship team. I'll never forget Impact and serving on the Impact worhsip team (team HOMO). I'll never forget JSK. I'll never forget all of me and kenny's adventures, including hiding in the restrooms of CRHS with Jason, invisible children, and our GT's with Royce. I'll never forget FIREWIRE! I'll never forget that happy trail... I'll never forget the "FACE," which by the way NEVER leaves Spencer dormitories. I'll NEVER EVER forget these past wonderful four years of my life. And I'm hoping and praying that these next four years will be just as amazing and unforgettable. | |

| Impact Camp this year was AMAZING. I just got back, so I'm extremely tired. BUT I will post more about it later and pictures will also be posted. < Alright, since I got like 15 hours of sleep last night after camp...I'm going to post some stuff about camp. camp this year was seriously amazing. We could feel God's presence all throughout camp. Worship was incredible. I am honored and very privileged to have had the oppurtunity to serve on the Impact worship team under the amazing leadership of Nathan and JoJo. Team Homo (WHCC) and Team Dragon (HCC) did a wonderful job leading the congregation in worship. I was truly moved through Team Dragon's worship. I felt as if i was "sweetly broken, and wholly surrendered" during our times of worship. And as a member of Team Homo, I was so blessed and unfathomly encouraged to see the hundreds of campers and counselors truly worshipping God. The last two worship sets were amazing. The entire congregation was dancing for the LORD and lifting their hands to God...it was truly and AWESOME sight. Now straying away from the praise and worship part of Impact...Chuck Land was an incredible speaker. Through Chuck, I learned more about becoming a disciple for Christ. We need to not just LOVE God, but we must make him oru magnificent OBSESSION. I also was reassured that Jesus was FULLY God, FULLY grace and truth, FULLY the lamb of God, and FULLY king. Jesus is also supreme in eternity, supreme in creation. He is the star of the movie and we are simply extras. I also learned that we attempt to make Kingdoms through ourselves. We use the things of this world to raise up Kingdoms under our own leadership. However, in all actuality, these are false kingdoms, weak kingdoms, POSER kingdoms. We must realize that we can't make poser kingdoms under our poser kings; rather, we must be apart of GOD's kingdom under a REAL king, adn we must realize that it's not our kingdom, but HIS. Meeting new people was really fun too. I never knew how hard it was to actually go up to a random girl whom you've never met before and start a conversation. I wanted to go and talk to someone who was diligently memorizing her verse, but i was sooooo scared, lol. JoJo called me a little girl, so I gathered up some couraged and started ta conversation. OMG, that was tough. lol, but well worth it. Here are just a FEW pictures....i didnt take many pictures...I filmed a lot though. I will post up more pictures when I get (or steal) some more, lol.        That's all for now...but more to come...I promise. | |
