Happy New Year~

Time passes quickly! Happy 2005 everyone~ I haven't updated my blog since Christmas day =) I am so happy and thankful that I had a "fabuloso" winter vacation in 2004.

I had the opportunity to go to a snowboarding trip in Mammoth with brothers and sisters from Church in Rosemead. It was pretty fun. I also got the chance to go to Yosemite and Sequoia National Parks with my family and two cousins from Costa Rica. "Fabuloso" is a Spanish word I learned from them heehee =P Really enjoyed God's creation and be with my love ones. I tried snowshoeing for the first time in my life. =) It was an interesting experience and I realized that I really need to exercise on a regular basis =P After we got back from the family trip, we attended Touchlife Mission's winter conference at Costa Mesa. Got encouraged by the words of God and learned a lot through several workshops. I will share about it later on.

For the rest of my vacation, I went to different bridal photography studios with my sister, Janice & brother-in-law, Will. Their wedding ceremony is this coming August. The costs for wedding photo packages are exceptionally expensive. High quality with affordable price is not that easy to find. I think preparing a wedding ceremony is a challenge!!

I celebrated my New Year's Eve at Universal City Walk. It was like a huge party, crazy and exciting! I really thank God for the year of 2004. I think when we all reflect on the past year, no matter what we had gone through, each one of us can say that God's is with us All the time. I pray that Holy Spirit will "regenerate" my life so I will have more passion for Jesus and compassion for others.
