| Once I had a boyfriend. And I posted lots of pictures of him and us together all cute. Now I don't! haha Weird.
This serves to make all my blog sites wierd. Coz then there's the question of wether or not you should delete all those lovely pictures. And I dont like to delete pictures.
And then it looks like its bad blood, etc. But really, every thing is fine. I mean, Im not hurt or angry. Its just over. Sure its not COOL that its over. I guess it never is when you have to end a relationship. But it is just what it is. Ova.
Anyway. Still im not taking away the pictures. I like them. :D
And now after like... 4 or 5 months, I have another crush. And I assume NO ONE reads this anymore, and I think thats why Im writing it.
Me and crushes. Its too fun not to have crushes. But its a great setup for DISASTER in so many many many arenas. ahhhhhhh well. :P | | |

You can sponser a real tibetan on his way to doing missions in China! He needs a plane ticket and its only $200 US! Other ways of support-->small monthly dontations for april or may or both! Or you could dontate a one time gift!
Its a very exciting possibiltity! Be part of bringing Tibetans BACK to China! If you want to, just let me know by leaving me a message, or comment, or email!

| Hello. Mostly Im writing in here for 2 reasons. 1-I finally have TIME, and I have a break so I am wasting time on my computer 2-I havent written in a long time and feel the need for an update...
So. Yes the rumor is true. I have a boyfriend. Goodness I guess its about time. But also--when it rains it pours. There's that old adage that boys are like busses, when you need one they never come, and when one comes they all come. Ha ha ha. But its true. Theres a few things happening, and its actually true that Rachel had to make a CHOICE! Not just like "I choose desparately because no one else likes me" kinda choice, but a real "this is gonna be the best one for me" kinda choice. Oh its a long story, and I guess its too personal for a xanga post. But hey, if I see you in person, you can ask me and maybe I'll tell you. But the gist is, an old 'possibility' came back as soon as I chose to have a very exclusive relationship with Pema. Actually--here is a short synopsis of what happened.
Pema is a 26 year old Tibetan who I met in YWAM in India. He is living in Manila doing Seminary. We have same basic heart callings. Same people group. And he absolutely adores me. He's liked me for 3 years, and after all his praying---I finally came around! And I like him ALOT too. :) Its a very cool, exotic story. We met in India, a kindof fabled love at first sight, then we tried to have a long distance relationship--and failed. Too much distance and time for the girl... But as I ended it, he never gave up hope that one day I would realize that he was worth fighting and waiting for. And in the mean time I moved to Hong Kong, had lots of stupid dead end crushes, and then one day went back to the place where we first met. He had left already but it was there that I realized that my reasons for ending the relationship were not strong enough--- and wondered if love was stronger than those things? And God told me that in Him--ALL THINGS are possible. So I went to Manila Philippines to "see" what would happen. And its there that I realized I had never known what I was giving up when I gave him up. We are like magnets! And in spite of the intense cross cultural nature, we arent so different! We have alot of the same things in common and SEE the world very similarly. And connect...and spark. Its so cool.
Heres some pictures.

| Hi.
So. Here I sit in Calcutta. Vaguely remembering a year ago posting on myspace from this same internet cafe. For those of you not on my update list, I will give a short update. Those of you on my update list... um... you can read it if you want. It could be different!
So, I just got down from the Himalayas. I always get a little sad leaving there. This time I got a little carsick. Ugh. I NEVER get carsick...except in some busses in HK. (MANTAK). Darjeeling is so amazing. I feel very comfortable there. And when the clouds clear up its the best view of the Himalayan range that you can find in that area! Darjeeling is the highest city in that whole vacinity. The other morning, Im pretty sure I saw Everest. Its far away, and in Nepal, but I looked at a map that shows where Everest is in the range, and then there it was. SO--------I have seen Mt Everest. COOL.
It was good to see old friends, and to make new ones. And my GOODNESS did we see God move. We literaly saw over 2200 people receive Christ, and over 12,000 people heard the gospel. IN 3 WEEKS!! If you arent on my list and you want to read some of the testimonies, let me know and I will get to it.
Now we are in Calcutta for 2 days before my team will split of from the gargantuan 18 and go to Hyderabad. 30 hour train... soo fun. Chai chai chai...
In other news, God has been really speaking to me concerning my vision. I have been realizing that Ive been sortof spiritually lazy in HK. And materialism has been effecting me. So its causing me to step back and look again at myself. As a missionary, as a Christian. Times like this are so necessary for me. Good things. Its almost like sometimes I forget what the heck Im doing in HK, and I start to get comfortable (which is FINE, to an extent) but the comfortable turns into laziness which turns into lack of vision. God just needs to keep me in a place where NOTHING is more important than Himself. This FEET is totally about that--emptying myself again and making sure that God is definately first. Im amazed that I let materialism affect me so much. I didnt even see it happen. Gotta be more careful!!
5 letters still burn in my heart, and even more now than ever ---TIBET. Ive made some new contacts, gotten some confirmation on my developing vision, and am questioning some things that I thought were more solid. ooooooh man that place...those people...goodness.
Xanga update. Who would have thought it was possible. hahahaha
Thats it for now. Sorry no pix. Soon though. :) | | |
