| time for some updating....since it's been a few months... haha..
~ going on staff again w/ ivcf this coming school year in a very very
very bad place... u of michigan!!! booo.... thankfully,
i'll be working at a branch campus in Detroit. 
but in all honesty, i'm excited to work with the fellowship here.
it's a bit different from the OSU crowd... a commuter school, a
for-real-actually-multi-ethnic group... with a pretty big Muslim
population at the school. and i'm staffing it allllll by
myself. 
my students are crazy, hyper, and hilarious. they also caked me
and stole my OSU hoodie. but true to osu style, i got them back
pretty well. 
i'm thankful for my opportunities... excited to be part of God's work
on campus... and also fundraising. if anyone is interested in
hearing more... email me!
~ also working part-time @ starbucks for fun. i love
meeting/working with people that deviate from the normal
white-collar-corporate-uppermiddle-class group. free coffee is fun too.
~ teaching middle school sunday school @ my church w/ jason... quite a
riot... since we have all boys and one girl. they crack me up...
cuz they CANNOT sit still.
been thinking/reflecting a lot about my community, or lack
thereof. i've decided that i really strongly dislike the
post-college lifestyle. it's so hard to hangout with people....
missing my roomies & buckeyes...

| okay okay okay! i will update my blog. this is for you (ewin & ang). 
happy new year, everyone! tee hee... i'm a bit late. but then again, i'm always late. haha.
let's see... what have i been doing?
went to cleveland for christmas, jason got really really sick, played
with family and friends, my brother got really really sick, drove to
cbus to visit the in-laws, hung out with fun people in cbus, i got
really really sick, parents and bro came down to cbus, and parents got
really really sick, and finally decided to drive back to detroit to
escape all the sickness.
besides that, i've been...
-updating jason's closet. he used to only have clothes that were
blue, blue, or blue, but now ... he has stripes! (and not all of
them are blue.)
-reading and writing a lot. here's a list of some of them:
accidental asian by eric liu, harry potter 6 harry potter 6 harry
potter 6  , slow man by j.m.
coetzee, yell-oh girls by vicki nam, great gatsby by fitzgerald, music
of the dolphins and witness by karen hesse, and currently reading kurt
vonnegut's welcome to the monkey house.
-playing with people from my new church. i really like my new
church. it is diverse in every possible way... race, culture,
economic/social status, metropolitan & inner city, senior
citizens/married couples/singles/babies. the only thing that was
missing from their church were asians. =D jason and i are
their token chinese. hahahaha. and their worship leader has
the most amazing voice ever... she rocks! you should all come
visit so you can come to my church.
-learning to cook! it's really fun. the other day, i made
pork chops. they were actually yummy. you can ask
jason.  i think he's still alive...
-volunteering at Mercy Education Project, an organization that helps women and girls in inner city Detroit. i love it!
i met a woman today from Jamaica that is studying to get her
GED. i usually tutor women in grammar, writing and reading... but
today, they were short on math tutors, so i had to teach
fractions! BLAH! i mean, i know HOW to do
fractions... but to teach fractions?!? haha... but we eventually figured it out together. numerator is the number on top....yadda yadda yadda....
and here are pictures!
this is Zach. he's almost 4.
this is Ethan. he just turned 2. for those of you who were at the
wedding, they were the little boys that rode down the hill in the red
wagons. aren't my cousin's kids so cute??? i want to eat
both of them.
family time! making dumplings for Christmas dinner.
january is such a fun month. i think we have people coming to visit us almost every weekend. any takers for the month of february or march???? you know you wanna!
the end!

| i love this book. if you're asian american, you should definitely read this!
i absolutely hate auto maintenance places. they are so unfriendly to women.
i just called around fifty kajillion auto places to get prices on new
brakes...and every time i hung up, i felt like i just narrowly escaped
being ripped off.
grrrrrrrr.
