[– Path of My Life –]

Ok.. Everything is going great. I got a job! Wohooooo~ Praise Lord, He is amazing! Jamin and I had a plan that we should move out from Washington to Idaho if we cant get a job til end of month (which is june 30) then… God works in mysterious way, He gave me a job on that day! (30th June) Isn’t it amazing??I was so sad and a little bit disappointed when I didn’t get the first job.. I cried all night long , because I thought I will get it and it looked like my dream job! But, God wants me to get another job which is now I have (i believe) the better job! One day after I didnt get my first interview, I saw on internet that they have occupation again about website and design! Yay, I just applied right away

I work in company who has really really friendly and family oriented, they are really nice and wonderful and the most important (They love God also).. ..\^o^/
I applied as a website technician specialist or whatever the names.. But next month I will replace the manager there (so, I haven’t know what my job title is). My responsibilities will bigger and more complicated when I sitting on that desk.. Probably thats why I have 1 month training and keep doin all stuff in that business..! I have a lot of ideas to help them especially for design and marketing!

Anyway, thanks God.. We really need a job, and God never late, God never too early, God just RIGHT! JUST IN TIME! It’s awesome that God shows us the way that we can stay here.. Probably I haven’t reply mail since couple weeks, because I was upset and I was focus to looking for a job , and making money for bills , immigration , til we had a trip 6 hours.. Oh anyway, We went to Sedro-wolley last week, we need to drive 3.5 hours so total 7 hours.. Do u know what we did for 7 hours?? YuUuUpPP! We were Praise and Worship God the wholeeee way on the road! come and go..! It was amazing feeling, we can shout to the Lord, we can claps, we can kinda like crazy because of God, but we cant jump bcoz we were in the car! lol.. At that nite, we saw a deer almost jumped in front our car! OMG~ I wasss soo shock, thank God we didnt hit that deer, phhhew after that we said really big voice “praise Lord, we didnt hit that” and since that time, I was awake all night long til we got home lol.. Well, what else? I think thats my story about these days.. Oh, and Jamin also already has a job (2 days before I started a job). I started at July 1st! perfect time to learn about anything.. I just wanna ask God to still guide us whenever, wherever we go or do! God has done amazing things for us! Unbelievable!!
My GOD unmistakable & unshakable! Oh well, I never stop praise Lord again, hope you guys not sick with me LOL..

So, catch me later! gotta go coz I heard Jamin playing guitar out there..

Peace yo!!

Dear all,
I just heard from radio that Steven Curtis Chapman’s youngest daughter was killed a month ago. Steven (SC) is a Christian Singer and he has a new single “Cinderella”.. Suddenly, I tried to find out about Cinderella song and also found out what the story behind that song.. This is the video:

and this is the song:

Its about Fathers’ love to his daughter..Please watch the video, it teaches us about life goes fast and no one knows about a second from now. I personally so sad about SC’ daughter. She just 5 years old cute little girl adopted from China. If you listen SC said that he inspired by Maria and her sisters to wrote this song. Emily Chapman (SC’ older daughter) just engaged and SC realized that he should spend more time with his little girls.. But unfortunately Maria hasn’t feel to be a real Cinderella like Emily and feel the wedding dress or even just feel to dance with the prince..

We also just celebrate Fathers day.. So, fathers, if you watch the video, please take your time to spend with your daughters or even your sons! Time goes fast.. Work, projects, bills and everything probably make you feel so exhausted and make you so depressed at the moment. The thing that you can do, just take your kids out somewhere even go to the pool and have fun with them, go to the pet store or zoo, or maybe you can go to the arcade and dance with them.. If you dont like to be a “old prince”, try to be a “cool prince” and play DDR or Guitar Hero with your kids. They will surprise and love it! I just got married and If I were a father, I would so sad because I should give my daughter to the other man and hope all the best for her. If you havent be a father, just remember this song, remember this video, remember this words…

Dear dad,
When I was a little girl, I remember that you were beside me to hold my hand when we walked together.
You used to show me a lot of things and made me feel smart..
You even told me what is your favourite collection when people dont know about that,and it made me feel special..
I used to ask you to bring a piece of money for my piggy bank everytime you got off from work and made me feel rich and thankful..

Dad,
Thank you for being cover for our family, thank you for being knight and have a brave heart to save the family. Thank you for always teaching us to be patient, to be survive, to be wise every single day…

Dad,
Since I worked for Disney, I can feel when you work really hard for family…
Your strong hands and powerful feet show me how tough a life is…
You working under the rain, and heat..
I felt the same way that you’ve been through…
When the storm and rain attacked me, I remember how hard your work is..
When the heat really burned me, I remember how dizzy your work out there and feel the sun light so straight to your body..
When I was sweat really bad, I realized that yours must be hard even you getting old now..

I saw your old skin, tired body, tired eyes, and wrinkle on your face is appear but you still can handle that. It is a bless from God that your power is so strong and survive with any situation..

Dad,
I’m not your girl anymore, I have another person that I love…
I cant be able to stay beside you like before…
But my love for you still remain..
Maybe I never say that “I love you”
Maybe I never say that “I care about you”
Maybe I never say that “I always pray for you”
But, please believe that I always say those words in my heart..

Dad,
Happy Fathers Day…
Let the world know that my dad is the best dad in the world..
Let the world know that my dad works really hard for family..

Dad,
Once again..
Maybe this is the time to say :
I love you dad..
I care about you..
and I always put you in my pray……

It’s been a long time I havent post the blog here, oh well.. There’s a lot of things happened. Especially when I have husband now, lol.. Even I’m not working as much as I did last year, but still I dont have feeling to write anything even there’s a lot testimonies and stories that I want to share.

People usually ask me about “how’s your marriage life?”
Well, one thing : Marriage is not Fairy Tale, but this is the real life. Sad, happy, mad, anger, love, sweet,etc all together blend in our life.. One thing for sure, marriage is not easy that we thought. Two different people, two different character, lifestyle, hobbies, and such and such should be ‘mixed’. Marriage teaches me how to understand the core of life, the core of love, and love makes me a life!

06/07 we’ve been together for 6 months, It means half-year.. It is great! Time goes so fast, we cant believe that we’ve been together..
Our love proofs that we so much in love…
Our understanding proofs that we could make it through…
Our God proofs that we meant each other…

Jamin…., one word who always make me realize how much God loves me… God knows what I need, God knows what I can’t stand for, God knows what I’m yearning, God knows what I deserve…

Jamin…, a lot of things are unexpect from him. I never thought he will do a lot of things and make me amazed and feel blessed. He gives me surprise when I dont have a clue at all… He makes me feel safe and believe that we will be ok! He always help me to stand up when I’m down.. He wipes my tears when I cant handle my emotion in this life… He works really hard to show me that he is commit with his words….

Last time he gave a surprise when we had ‘half-anniversary’ and he asked me to go to Mexican Restaurant, it was so sweet! Moreover when I got home, he change and clean the bedroom perfectly and did laundry lol… It just fantastic! Sometimes we need to give reward to people that we love or love us.. They deserve it though

Jamin is my knight who stands in front of me with his sword…
Jamin is my angel who covers me with his wings…
Jamin is my prince who gives me a beautiful surprises…
Jamin is my cat who asks me to pet him everynight (LOL)

Thank you for all our friends who help us going through all hard times that we have.. Thank you for your support and your pray for us!

We can’t give anything for our friends.. I hope I just can be there whenever our friends need us.. We would love to give our time and piece of heart for our friends. Also we would love to pray and ask God to bless our friends..

Dear all,
I just wanna share about what happen in me and maybe it sounds unusual, but I let you know and I will explain about what happen with me.

January 7th 2008…
We (Jamin and I) went to the Court House and got Marriage License, finally we got married. After the really short time, we decided to give our life each other.

I’m sure a lot of people have a big question mark. Why they get married soon? Why is so soon? Why they really fast to take decision? Are they really married or just play? Are they sure meant each other? Bla bla bla..

First of all,I will tell about how Jamin and I met. I’m working at Asia Section, Disney’s Animal Kingdom as a Cultural Representative. My husband works for custodial / park keeper at DAK also. We met around July, but everything was nothing. We just see each other almost everyday; finally we were dating for couple months… We had a really really hard time in our relationship. He had beliefs that absolutely different than me (I am Christian), we used to fight and had a bad time. Once we touch about spirituality, we will fight all day long, no end of discussion. We used to fight until I got sick, and I didn’t go to work on that day. Every Sunday, we always argue, because I came from church and he came from his church…I almost give up, I prayed to God that if he is really my husband wanna be or my Mr.Right, just change him, if not please make him hates me or make something happen to us. I didn’t ask him to change his belief, I just flow and I was fasting and pray to God that please give me the way and touch him if that’s His way. November 14th, when I went to his apartment, he said,” I think Jesus is a God. Jesus shows Himself for me today”. Then he explained about dream that he had, it was old man talk about religion with him. He kind of “challenges” God and asks God to shows Himself. And God did it, right after he asked that. After he went out from the bus, he saw the big words on the clouds (JESUS LOVES YOU) by plane and a lot of things happened with him and his spiritual side.

Since that day, he changes his mind and turn 180 degrees, our relationship being better and we always have a good time. He cares of me; he loves me more than ussual. One day, his family came here as vacation on Thanksgiving. We had vacation together, it was fun and nice.. November 26th, 2007. He brought me to the pier at Clearwater Beach . It was almost 7 oclock, I didn’t expect that he was hold my hand and asked me to be his wife. I was thinking about what God gave to me, the answer and the signs, I said “I do…” And I think I can get along with his family Time flies… we always together and no worry about our relationship, because we already in one belief, our love grows stronger than before.

After we are engaged, people start to “give” some advice. They said, “Hey, are you sure with him?” “You still young, he still young” “he doesn’t have a good job, you are not sure with your job” ”everything still pink” “he is not ready I think” “He is just a custodial” etc. The strange thing is people who “underestimate” us are from my side, and the otherside (Jamin’ side) his co-workers, his managers, his family and my family and a couple of my friends support us. I really upset, because when I decide to get married with him, they use to give me an advice. I know they are concern with me, they care with me; but if one thing, one advice they repeat more than one time, almost everytime we meet, they always say that. Honestly it makes me sick and trauma because everytime I say that, people will say that. I really afraid to tell people what will happen with us, what our plan, because people will say that

Before we married, we talked with my parents (a couple times). The first thing that my mom ask me was, “is he rude / not?” because we really afraid that he will abuse me or things like that… (more…)
