Welcoming the New Year

SO, Today's the day after my Bridge Retreat. It wasn't as great as I would have liked, but I still learned and was blessed a lot. For some reason, I didn't like the speaker, Slick, I don't know why, I got some weird impression, and I guess My hear was Hardened towards his message. Uhh, I still preferred Father Heart 'cause there were so many seminars you could choose from, I'm tired of the same old, Save your Dating when you're looking for a mate, keep abstinent, etc.etc.etc. But the praise was Intense. I learned that Someone else shares my self-consciousness when praising, which shouldn't exist, but is still there. I feel like every ones judging me, because It's true, when someone gets "into" praise, My eyes are drawn to the motion, and I feel like Judgment is pouring into the room onto that person, which is sometimes me. I guess we all just need to keep in mind that Praise should just be between God and I and that no one else matters, putting theory into practice is still hard. Like everyone, I'm going to make a few resolutions, but not trivial ones like, loose weight, or get a six pack, but something that means something. So here it goes...
Resolutions
1) Become more like Christ, that's a really general resolution, and that's the way I wanted it. I want to become more knowledgeable when it comes to the bible, I want to be able to see God's plan, instead of getting caught up in the petty trials and tribulations, I want to be able to sacrifice myself, whether it becomes time, money, or self, and I want to become more confident in my faith, in a way where I won't have to be worried about the persecutions that come because I'm a Christian. With all these goals, there's certain actions that must be done in order to achieve my goals. I need to read the bible, for one, I need to pray to get closer to God, I need to have selfless faith, I need to love my enemies, I need to worship with all my heart, and I need to not lose sight of God, when I'm struggling through a phase of apathy, which effects me a lot ):
2) I need fellowship, I'm afraid of meeting 14 new people, my age, who AREN'T Korean .___.

That's pretty much it I guess. HAHA, I'm so dead, I slept for 17 hours :D
I miss you guys already, Joe, Luke, Shalom, Jen.Pep, Grace, Aimee, Aaron, Jung Ah, Hawon, everyone else D: I wish I lived in Marysuckyland...
JAN.10. SEE EVERYONE AT THE FOLLOWUP :D<33
OH WAIT, ONE TRIVIAL RESOLUTION....
To update my blog at least 3 times a week .__.
