| I remember hearing once that the Holy Trinity could be described as the Sun: with the Father being the star itself, the Sun being the rays of light and Holy Spirit as the heat/warmth you feel from the Sun. But where does that put us Christians? I think that we are best represented as the moon, circling the earth as we always live day by day going by the norm given to us by society. But then, we also shine some light at times. But as you know, the moon does not actually produce light, it actually just reflects the light from the Sun, which is not too far off from what we Christians do, we merely reflect the power and might of the Lord our God, so that others can see Him when they believe God is nowhere to be seen. We are the lights that shine when others believe that they are surrounded in darkness. We'll never be able to give off our own light, seeing as how we are nothing compared to God, but we can always give to others what God gives to us to give, light.

| Drove to Berkeley in the morning and started cleaning up my apartment. I'm finally capable of walking around my apartment barefoot, or so I think. Still need to walk around for a while to see if it really is clean. Haven't done much for a while, planning on going to summer school in Berkeley, so I'll probably be gone by the time everyone else gets out of college for summer vacation. Trying to relax for the small amount of time that I have.
Not much out of the ordinary, so that'll be it for my post. Later.

| I am. I am definitely procrastinating. For reals and for imaginaries. Class ends on Tuesday, and my finals are the week after. For today, I have two homework assignments, an essay, and an early final to study for. And yet, I don't feel rushed, which probably is a bad thing.
In other news, my current roommate is moving out, and I'm getting a new one starting next semester.
Not sure what I'm doing for the summer, either work in Berkeley or work in Fresno. Planning to go to the CW graduation, but I don't promise that. Mainly because I can think of a lot of better things to do than to go to a graduation. Seriously, I didn't even want to go to my graduation, the only reasons I did go was because my parents wanted me to and I was going to sit in the front row. I still have that banner from my graduation.
Well, I better work on my essay again.

| Man, I did nothing today. Perhaps, less than value obtained when evaluating the equation pi / 4 - sum [(-1)^i / (2i+1)] with i from 1 to infinity. Just to let you know, it equals zero. Don't worry, I didn't know that off the top of my head, I had to go back to some notes somewhere and copy it down.
Anyway, just so you can know what I did, I'll tell you, since I'm well aware that whoever reads this obviously cares. Obviously...
Bought Drain-o / Drano / Draino / etc. since the bathroom sink was a little slow in its drinking of water. Interesting to note is that etc is an abbreviation of et cetera which is latin and if you translate it literally it means "and the rest". But I digress, after the Drain-o / Drano / Draino / etc. incident I sat at my computer and suddenly, 5 hours had passed. And that's how the day went for me.
I was browsing my computer because I swear that I have a split personality that I have no control over. So I like to check to see if this "other me" put stuff on my computer that I don't want/need. And I found a lot of oddly named text files, names like "don't read me", "nothing to see", and "blank". Ironically, the one named "blank" wasn't blank. But! The main point was that there were all these lyrics or something, not too sure what it was, but they looked like lyrics. So now, I'm under the assumption that if I combine all these text files into one, I'll have a song. It would sound terrible, but it would be a song. And besides, these days music sucks.
I found that I prefer music that has to do with friendship and caring, and occasionally love. That's why, I've been listening to Pokemon soundtracks. I had no idea there were so many, and I bet you didn't know either. Judging from the albums I have, there are seven! SEVEN! 일곱! 7! Yeah, it's pretty intense / in tents.
Our lives are like a single track on a CD that never ends, make sure its theme is worshiping God.

note: You may think that worshiping is a misspelling, but it's not. It can actually be written as worshiping or worshipping. However, worshipping is a mainly British spelling, kind of like colour.

| Haven't been doing much of anything. Started hanging out with some friends, also known as the few people in school that I see more often than my professors (keeping in mind that I attend most of my classes).
Left the bass guitar in Fresno when I went during Spring Break, and I'm starting to regret that decision. For some strange reason, I have a tendency to make up verses to songs that don't exist. And the fact that I don't have an instrument to make chords for makes it hard to write songs. So right now, I have a lot of unnamed text files that contain a single verse or chorus, hoping to complete them when summer comes around.
School's been alright, doing decent despite the trouble I seem to be in. I hadn't turned in a couple homework assignments for my Korean class, and the GSI (TA) told me to turn them in as soon as possible. When I started to turn in my homework on time, the GSI actually wrote "Fighting!". For the non-Koreans out there, "Fighting" is some sort of cheer or something. I thought it was pretty funny.
Something to note is that being in college tends to make me a lot more indifferent to the things that happen to people academically. For instance, I really don't feel like I care that people are stressed over college applications, it just doesn't seem pertinent (important) to me. Just in case you're wondering, my use of parentheses (like this) is not to make you feel stupid if it seems like a dictionary or thesaurus for you if you don't know what some words mean (such as GSI and pertinent). Its purpose is to help me stay in focus of what I'm writing, kind of like margin notes. But seeing as there are no margins in xangas, I have to resort to parentheses.
Hope everything is going well for you, and I wish for only the best. Take care of yourself. I remember something I wrote a long time ago, and when I think about it, it helps me focus my life. Here it is:
"Life is too long to do nothing and too short to do anything. So do everything for God first."
Jeff C Park
edit: used "are" instead of "is", surprising I caught it. Edit in bold, too make me feel better.
