One of my favorite students in previous Korean company I worked with . Hee Eun Kim (Megan) She was 11 years old then. Thanks to Facebook.   I found her! Last time, (I was at Leah’s house) I called her in their house because we lost our communication in email.. (she has amnesia with her password). Her mom answered it but sadly, Megan went outside to watch a movie.   And here she is now.. Very pretty. I sent her a message in FB. And here’s her reply: Re: Megan :) oh my god my mum told me that u called me So I was like OMG..;; im in Korea now ha-ha I miss u so much..... maybe on weekend I want u to call me like um....not in the morning haha Here’s my number 010-???? -???? What a surprise. ♥♥♥

So, what happened for this month? Looking back at my Starbucks Silver Planner, I started off this month by a VACATION LEAVE. Also, I had started giving my boyfriend a fine every time I see him drinking COKE. It was also the month when I really experienced STRESSFUL work due to lessons we’re working on called TOEIC SPEAKING. Have you guys tried it? February was also the month for movies, try-me restaurant (meaning, restaurants which I haven’t tried eating yet with someone.)   I also got to learn some Korean words and phrases. I really need to learn that stuff. Not to mention the pay day too. That’s it? No. Why am I blogging these things? I just want to share how February went through and the experiences I had. I know the Lord had given me a test of faith this month. There were circumstances where in I need to really depend on Him alone, not within my strength but with GOD’S strength alone. There were days when I was so active in my prayer time and also, there were times when I do...

How can I forget 12th day of the month? It's the day that Coco asked me "Can you be my girlfriend?" He even asked me what's the difference of  "Yes, I will" and "Yes, I do." Well, I just answered the YES, I WILL. Still praying for the YES, I DO ♥♥♥ February 12, 2011 It's our third month together. (funny, it seems like years!) We love eating so we just had our dinner at The Real Thing Diner. Oh, the crew remembered me already! haha! (we went there with some Korean buddies and with my co teachers too) She remembered me and my bangs! :) Oh, how can I forget that day! (I'm starting to have a forgetful mind) Again, I didn't take a photo of the food that we ordered.      THE REAL THING DINER il terrazo, tomas morato

February 13, 2011 : I was at the church the whole day. It was quite a long Sunday for me.  My 남자 친구 and I had our dinner at my favorite kimchi house, of which they also sell foods that my boyfriend could eat. Then, we attended a worship night too at Victory Ortigas. We usually do that everytime we have ample of time to do it (we've been doing it for almost 3 years). Then we headed off to our house, but before that, we went to a cafe/computer shop. We just got so curious although we've been planning it for years to have a sip of coffee there, or eat something, whatever is on the menu ♥ We both had Ice Choco, he had his Carbonara (his favorite) and I just had a Hungarian Sandwich.  It tastes good in a way, and it's not that expensive too. The place was also cool, it wasn't that crowded even if it's a cafe and computer shop at the same time. OUR VERDICT:  3 cups as a first time   February 14, 2011: Oh I just had my PRE and POST in my title :) naaah... I went ...

Hebrews 11:6 Without faith, it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him. What is faith? faith : noun, (feyth) 1. A strong belief in a supernatural power or powers that control human destiny 2. Complete confidence in a person or plan etc 3. An institution to express belief in a divine power 4. Loyalty or allegiance to a cause or a person   same as: belief, trust *source: wordweb In our discipleship, I learned that Faith is confidence that what God has promised or said will come to pass.   Sight is an opposite of faith (that's why there is "walk by faith and not by sight").  If you can see clearly how something can be accomplished, more than likely faith is not required.  If we had chosen to operate on what we knew we could do, faith would not have been necessary. Faith was believing that the God who called us to the assignments was the One who would provide fo...

Happy Hearts Day! This will be my greeting presentation for my students today :) And today, I got a present from Kayla. *sweet  haven't fixed my hair yet :) morning me :0 haha 

John 16:33 In the world you will have tribulations, but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. When we dont' know this is all going to work out, we have to hold tightly to the Lord Jesus Christ Himself and rest in Him.  That's the message we often find in the New Testament. In John 16:33 Jesus said to His disciples, "These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace.  In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world."  Jesus had been talking about His future death, but then He said, "Don't get caught up in that.  Make sure in the midst of these tumultuous times your trust is in Me." When we go through a tough time, if we've spent any time at all in the Word of God, that tough time is like a magnet that draws us to the Lord Jesus.  Nothing will happen in the future that will catch Jesus Christ by surprise.  And there's nothing that will happen that He can't help His children work ...

Psalm 139:13 For you formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother's womb. God knew you before you were born.  He knows the moments when you were conceived.  In eery phase of development, from that moment on, He is there.  The human embryo is not the result of a biological accident.  God is aware of the union of the spern and the egg and the attachment of the embryo to the uterine lining and the development of human life. God formed the inward parts and arranged the geneteic structure. God knows about that human life and loves that human life from the very moment of its union. cross in our body In every cell of your body there is enough information to recreate your adult person as if no other cell were necessary.  And every time that cell divides in the process of your growth, all the information contained in each cell is part of the division.  Someone has reasoned that if all of the instructions in the DNA of one cell were written out, it woul...

Seems like I got more than one entry in a day. I would just like to share the famous volcano here in the Philippines, MAYON VOLCANO.  It's an active volcano in the country.  It's full in stories, histories. One night, my students and I were studying about volcanoes. I asked him to tell what's the famous volcano in Korea. He showed me a picture of Mount Baekdu.  Here is a shot of Mount Baekdu in North Korea, the highest volcano lake in world. Mt Baekdu lies in the northeast corner of North Korea, near the Chinese border. This picture was taken on one of the few clear summer days. **http://www.teachenglishinasia.net/image-galleries/north-korea/photo-of-volcano-lake-on-mouth-baekdu-north-korea Then, ofcourse, I showed him some pictures of Mayon Volcano.   ** photos from google God's creation of this volcano is so amazing!   I haven't been to Legaspi City and be able to see this wonderful volcano up close.  There's a lot more to see...

Everyday, before we (I) begin with my lesson proper or just a free talking class with my students, I have a prepared greetings slide for them.  Well, I can actually greet my students and the Korean teacher verbally "Hello everyone! Happy _____." but instead, I'm preparing slides for them so it could also catch their attention, (not all students want to see themselves in the camera, haha).   It could be of any kind, theme (wholesome ofcourse), subject.  Korean students especially the Kindergarten, Elementary level are somewhat sensitive seeing visuals that are kinda fleshy or sensual.  I used cartoon characters before. I also even use K-POP artists, foods, the 7 Wonders of the World! But this week's greetings are just some cute stuff I saw in the internet! Happy Friday for tomorrow~

I started to love singing when I was a kid. I sing a lot. I was fascinated with MTV and FM stations. I sing in the school. I sing in the classroom (I am forced to do s o, so that there'll be less seatworks!) I sing using videoke too :P I sing in the church. I'm using the talent that the Lord had given me so I could give Him back the glory. I sang as a wedding singer  :) It was my first time to attend a Christian wedding.♥ singing out loud (lovely :)

What is loneliness? I don't know how to define it; all I can do is describe it.  It's an underlying anxiety at having no one close, a sharp ache in a moment of grief, and an empty feeling in the pit of the stomach when we know we have no one to whom we can turn.  There is no anguish like loneliness. But God has a cure for loneliness. In our walk with God, He offers friendship, a family, and a peace that passes all understanding.  When we meet Him, we are not guaranteed never to feel lonely, but we are promised that we will never be alone. After all, He is the one who said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you" (Hebrews 13:5) 

I'm not actually fine today. I just kept myself busy. I'm part of a team doing materials for TOEIC Speaking - to be used by Korean students. Thank God I was able to finish my part today. A big thanks for my co-teachers in sharing their opinions about some questions I handed them. Our team leader, Korean boss too, Ms.Kayla, sent me a message. It put a smile on my face realizing I am appreciated too by the things or probably the words I'm sharing with her (to lighten up our stressful and demanding task). :)

 Colossians 2:9-10   9 For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, 10 and in Christ you have been brought to fullness. He is the head over every power and authority. Insight into who you are and why you are here is available only from the Creator, because you were created for Him.  The missing piece in your life is not more education or better therapy. The missing piece in your life, if you don't know Christ, is to put Him at the center where He belongs . God created you uniquely for Himself. He put a vacuum within you that cannot be filled with anything else but Him.  When you stuff in all the pleasure and all the madness of this age trying to find meaning to life you will never discover it. But something hapens when you say a simple prayer giving into God and receiving Him into your life. Then Jesus comes to live within you. God loves you, He knows you, He has a plan for your life. He wants you to know who you are and why you are here, and i...

I made a video of this song..with lyrics..very amateur..haha..but I enjoyed doing such videos that has meaning..

Psalm 30:11-12    11 You turned my wailing into dancing;    you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy, 12 that my heart may sing your praises and not be silent.    LORD my God, I will praise you forever. God is certainly with us when things are going well, but He is also with us when things aren't going so well. God is there when we achieve a major accomplishment or victory in life, but He is also there in the hospital room when we receieve the bad news were were hoping not to hear. Whether in the ups or the downs, God is with us in every case. The key thought is this: Whether you are going through weeping or joy, give thanks to God.   Whether you are in an up time or a down time, give thanks to God. If you are experiencning prosperity or poverty, give thanks to God.   If you are in times of dancing or mourning, give thanks to God. Don't ever forget that the one constant in all of life is God's presence with you, and for...
