Day 10: A picture of yourself and 10 positive things that you like about you.

I can't post a recent picture of myself with the proxy site I am using, but you can see me in my profile picture on my blogger =]

10 things I like about me:
1. I like that I laugh at everything and make jokes a lot.
2. I like that I am Chinese/Vietnamese and born in Korea. I come from a vibrant culture and an interesting background.
3. I like my thick and black hair (apparantly I won't suffer bad hair loss when I'm older!)
4. I like that I'm quite laid back about things.
5. I like that I have a relationship with God and because of Him, I am saved forever.
6. I like that I like different types of music and am not secluded to just one genre.
7. I like that I am quite caring at heart, no matter how much I make myself act like I don't give a crap.
8. I like that I try my best not to be judgemental of people.
9. I like how even though I am small I can (well, try to) kick ass.
10. I like that I am fairly independent and can do things alone.

Day 9: Your biggest regret

A few come to mind, but one of them I will say on here is giving my first kiss to someone I didn't know or care about.
Having said that, I think all of our regrets in life have something worth learning from. They make you who you are today. Even though there are things in my past I really wish weren't there, I know it has made me stronger and all the more wiser.

P.s. What's with all these bands that I like and listen to breaking up? Confide, Lydia and now The White Stripes? Dang.

Day 8: Your most cherished item

I don't really have anything I cherish, but I think at the moment something that has a lot of meaning to me is this bracelet I got on my 18th birthday that had my name meanings engraved on it, from a good friend. It represents friendship, but also something deeper...and I'm planning to get those words tattooed on me someday!

Day 7: Your dreams for you future

Dreams. So wonderful to think about, yet so distant and fragile. The dreams we have never turn out the way people originally planned it from what I've read- sometimes for the better, and sometimes for the worse.

My dreams for my future is to one day become a music and photo journalist, travelling around the world taking photos and interviewing and writing about musicians for an international business. I also wouldn't mind taking documentary photos of people around the globe for a magazine or something like that if music journalism doesn't work out for some reason. To top it all off would also include running a small non-profit mission organisation on the side (Hope99?) that raises money and awareness for less fortunate and mistreated people around the globe.

Ahh, the feeling I get when I think about these dreams is comparable to having butterflies in your stomach. You hope for the best and you are excited for it, but there's also that nervousness that it might not happen. And if it doesn't, then that's okay too. I trust that God has a path already set for me, and when I am following his directions everything is going to work out for me in the end. It might not necessarily be the path that makes me the happiest, or gets me to the most countries, or earns me the most money or recognition, but it certainly will be a path of a purpose driven life and of fulfillment beyond my comprehension.
