SUMMER WORKOUT!

I wanted to record my workout progress somewhere so why not do it on my blog!
So I'm around 163cm, and I was around 105-106 pounds before university started.
First term, I didn't gain much but second term holy! In one week I gained 4 pounds.
So I think I was around 114 when I came back but when I weighed myself last monday I was 111 pounds!
So my mission for the next month or two is to get back to my 106 pounds!
I don't really care if I get to 106 but I want toned abs :)
hehe, I saved this picture to my computer as my motivation.


It's kind of embarrassing posting pictures of myself but I want to put my progress somewhere!



My before. I think my main goal is to become healthier and get a more toned body! :) 


my snacks and lunch for the past week! 

After a week of working out everyday and eating healthy! I see a little line!
(look at my sketchy yoga mat at the back, it's a towel. WHO WANTS TO BUY ME A YOGA MAT?!)


The difference?

But sadly this past weekend, I ate out for every meal. All you can eat at Spring Rolls, Sushi, Korean food, so I need to get back to the gym ASAP! Hopefully I'll get my toned arms, abs, legs and butt :3 hehe wish my luck!

University Depression

I think I'm depressed. Not in a way that I need medical attention or I need to go into therapy, or not even the one where I have to take medicine. I have the typical university depression. This term SUCKS. The weather is disgusting outside, we've had 8 months of school and my marks have dropped 10-15%. I knew that engineering/university was hard, many many people told me. However, I thought I was strong enough to get through it....I guess not. So many people in my class seem like they have it all, time management, social life, and the BRAINS. They are so smart, I actually don't get how they get 90s to perfects. Here I am trying to pass my exams while they are trying to get perfects. If I'm having trouble now, how the hell am I supposed to do this for another 4 years?

And I feel like I'm losing so many of my close friends. I'm not even close with my floor mates anymore. I barely talk to them. Everyone around me seems like they are enjoying university.  The other day, I was thinking to myself, "Am I doing this university thing right?" Aren't you supposed to make memories? Like I do want to attend parties but at the same time, I don't want to because I'm so behind on work. I always see pictures on facebook, twitter and instagram of people partying...like st.patricks day for example. It looked so much fun, and at the end of 5 years, I won't remember the shear force of a rod but the memories I make with my friends....Can someone tutor me about life as a university student?

But it's not to say that I don't have any friends. I do have friends, but I feel very lonely. And I'm always tired. No matter how much I sleep, I'm always so tired. Oh and I feel like my relationship with God has gone very very low. Where is that Christie after she came back from Mexico Missions trip that was fired up with Faith? I feel so lost. I don't know what to do...university sucks ass....


just a month left to go...lab exam, lab report, term test, 939392 assignments and 4 exams to go. Sigh, university please go away.


I guess I should pray about this.

Who Am I Winter Retreat 2013

Hello my beautiful readers. So I am back to tell you guys about the retreat I attended from January 2nd - 4th .  I've attended many retreats ever since I was really little but it was my first time going as a staff. I was one of the two girl staff that went. It was a totally different experience because I wasn't going to this retreat for myself, but for the kids. I was there to help them meet and strengthen their relationship with God.

During praying time, it was really sad to see all these kids crying because I've been there before. I know how lonely high school can be. I know the stress they are going through from getting bullied, finding their identity, and choosing a career. I wanted for them to meet Jesus and realize that He is always there for them.

I also realized that I needed to improve on my praying. I asked my pastor to recommend a book about praying and hopefully I'll have it by this month! I was also jealous of people who were gifted with praying. I SUCK at praying. I know it's from a lack of practice but at the same time, I always heard people praying in Korean. Hopefully, the book will make me a better prayer and strengthen my bond with the man up in theee skkkkkkkkkkkkkkky!


beautiful staff members :)
