The South Korea National Soccer team played head to head with the Los Angeles Galaxy soccer team this past Wednesday, February 8, 2006 at the Home Depot Center stadium (next to Cal State Dominguez Hills University). It was the first time watching the Los Angeles Galaxy soccer team play and also one of the best soccer games ever.

We had front row seat tickets.
Nonstop of junk food.
Perfect weather.
Awesome crowd!
Free shirt.

Oh and ……

Not one.

Not two..

But three scores against the Los Angeles Galaxy soccer team!

Lee Chun Soo (bleached hair player) scored the 3rd shot.

I found an interesting article linked from another website:
Feminism by John Ross
After reading the article, guys have it good. Ladies, inform your friends. Ignorance is bliss.

Brothers, if someone is caught in a sin, you who are spiritual should restore him gently. But watch yourself, or you also may be tempted. - Galatians 6:1
It has been months since I last shared my struggles in an accountability group. I hope I can join the KCCC campus ministry for the spring quarter since it will be my last spring quarter.

Man, this song is very catchy!

“An average men lives up to about 70 years old. I am 32 years old so I have about good 40 years old left. For the remaining 40 years, I told myself that I do not want to stress about the little stupid stuff.” He is right.

It is incredible how much time and energy an individual waste simply by stressing about the little stupid stuff. For instance, I stress about the upcoming midterms and exams. I’m in my senior year and I can not believe I still stress about this things, shouldn’t I have learned and adapt to a new stage of thought where I can prioritize my schedule as to get everything done and ready beforehand?

I been planning on what I should do at the end of my college year. Rather than wasting more time stressing about my early post-college years (which I had been doing for the past months), I think I’ll lay everything to God and just pray daily about the “small stuff.” I am thankful for the long years in school (first grade to college) and I think I am ready to finish school. I know I am ready for a nice vacation and I been thinking of visiting my friend in the East Coast. Just relax and do fun things. The following month of college graduation, I like to spend time with my family and go do some outdoor activities. My body is itching for a hiking trip, whitewater rafting, bungee jumping (yes please!), fishing, and camping trips. An outdoor activity that gives extreme adrenaline and excitement, something I can put all my mind and energy into. Followed by a time of relaxation and no worries.

A vacation sure sounds good at the moment. I think I will plan this vacation. I really need my time away from Los Angeles County.

Help me see the big picture Lord, one step at a time.

I was forced to buckle myself into a roller coaster ride as soon as the needles struck 12 and as much as I enjoy roller coaster rides, this ride was not going to be fun. The day started off rough. Looking back at those results, man was it unpleasant. I tried to be positive and I told myself that I can make it up and all things will turn out good. Then I remembered, I was suppose to meet my church pastor this evening. We’ve been having this talk and although I made my decision it was only getting harder. It’s all gonna work out.

As I was driving off-campus to go see him, boom! Thank God it was minor. I did end up meeting the pastor afterward and we talked about an hour regarding the same topic that we’ve been discussing for the past two weeks. The more I think about the scenario and how my decision will affect others, I know it will turn out well. I also remembered last night’s lecture where the professor told the class, “you should always make the best and the right decision.” Who doesn’t.

This was when the roller coaster stopped spiraling downward and finally the ride was heading straight and up. 7 p.m., I attended a presentation. Porn Nation. Michael Leahy came and spoke about his early childhood, his struggles with pornography, and how his life changed when God came into his life. I was able to relate many things with the speaker and I was really challenged. I am so glad that the event took place tonight because it would have been a very depressing day otherwise.

Life was never meant to be easy. Thank you Lord.
