LOL...
God is funny!
I don't play basketball,
I don't catch basketball matches.
I'm not the best athelete.
Not to say I'm not the best friend.
And I'm not the best person to be called religious.
(Oh trust me...I've changed soo much after coming here, I figured I lost myself)
KS a good friend I met in UCSD who is from Malaysia and is also a Psych major like myself and a Christian is a reminder.
I honestly gave up finding a church here, i gave up finding friends and I gave myself up.
Call me a late bloomer but life has been tough.
My struggles everyday is getting my work load done,
trying to stay out of temptations way, there's shopping, spending money, finding a companion, not getting drunk, and anything that is coming across your mind now may have crossed mine.
But Jeremy Lin, the Taiwanese player came up on this youtube video which I could hardly even tell what it was

(Warning long-ass video an hour)
taught me something.
Romans 5:3-5
New International Version (NIV)
3 Not only so, but we[a] also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4 perseverance, character; and character, hope. 5 And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.

I trust that this life is surrendered to Him to use it as he pleases.
Very definite answer for all of you whether I am staying or leaving this land of dreams, I can only say I leave it in His hands.
Doors will open and close as His will and all I wanna do is to glorify His name.
Call me religious whatever, it doesn't matter. He does matter to me.
Why Daiyan, why do you do this?
Hey you just got to have a relationship with him to know how satisfied my life is, how blessed it has been since the day I knew Him and I can never explain in plain words what my life being in Christ has been to share with you this love and happiness that I have.
The last 3 months of Him missing in my life has been depressing.
Its to the point where I can't even explain how it feels. It probably feels hopeless.
I love you guys and I will update whenever I get the chance.
