| Yes, it is once again, the HOLIDAY season. It's been pretty chilly at night & it's pretty weird to be home for such a long length of time. I'm loving the break of course, no doubt about it. But my fall quarter grades didn't help me be jolly for this holiday season. Otherwise, I guess things have been okay. I am currently at my Cerritos area home having finished wasting hours away on OMGPOP! After having no internet for the past couple weeks, I think I deserve to waste some hours. I was so nervous about my Restaurant City & it was such a relief to check on them for the first time in weeks. I think that was one of my main concerns besides grades teehee Glad to have internet because I desperately needed to update my iTunes... but anyways...
My beautiful break so far... I got to.. 1. Spend time with old friends  * Jean, Sam, Helen, Eunhae, Esther, etc etc.. & word from 존홍오빠 :) I was so happy because it really had been much too long... ♥ 2. Spend time with new friends  * Connie & Christina ♥ & Jack, Justin, etc etc... Good to spend a lot of time out of school in our own habitats :P FUNFUN!
  3. Watch my mass amounts of IRIS * I was so behind because of 미남이시네요 but I'm almost on last episode :) 4. EXPLORE! * Glendale, Americana, the Grove, Hollywood, Irvine Jamboree, etc.. Love adventure. 5. REST. *self explanatory 
I want to write a Christmas Wish-list even though nobody will see this or get any of the items on the list for me... Part of the simple pleasures of Christmas, right? Canon DSLR, Clothing store giftcards, SHINee themed stuff, iPod speakers/cover for my nano, jewelry, UP/ Meet the Robinsons/ Lilo & Stitch/ Bolt, August Rush, (diff movies on DVD), creative stuff :) I cannot think right now actually... poopers.
I hope everyone has been having a good holiday season so far. I know a lot of my friends have been calling, texting, messaging me, etc about how depressed or sad they have been feeling. (Mostly.. actually.. all of the single people really). I hope everyone remembers the true meaning of Christmas & will smile and be happy with that reminder. Also I hope that this New Year will be the best. I hope that everyone will lift their heads up high and look at this new year as a fresh start. With whatever mistakes or bad things that happened, that everyone will have learned and are able to move on to what is bigger and better ahead! It honestly has been a tough year but there are so many other people who want fresh starts too. It's the perfect time 아자아자 화이팅! 저도 많이 힘들었던 일들 잊고 다시 사직하고싶어염~ ♥ 우리 같이 해용!!
I'll be thinking & adding to my New Years Resolution list. It probably will be the most ultimate list ever. There are so many things that I need to work on... *sighh...
----PICTURE TIME----- LALALALA♥ 
wishing joy to the world, Cathy Woo♥

| I finally have time to update my xanga once again. This time, I'm allowed to. Usually I shouldn't be because it usually means that I'm definitely procrastinating on something, or should be getting sleep.
This was the last week of Fall quarter classes. Next week is... *DUN DUN DUN* Yes, the oh-so-dreaded FINALS WEEK. ;; Am I ready? I'm really not so sure. Actually, I'm not. For sure. Hahaha.
I've honestly been feeling so much pressure lately. This pressure is in my academic studies but also my social settings, and emotional being. Definitely majorly in my academic things.
The nights I stay up and pull all-nighters mean nothing to me when I look back. I shouldn't even be pulling all-nighters unless its for extra studying. For me, it's not. It is the first time I'm looking at the material. I need to fix this and I hate myself for it. I know I should try. I WANT to try. Something stops me though. It makes me sad that I fail at this. 정말 잘하고싶은데... 일이 안풀리네...
Socially, I really love the people and friends I have made here at Pomona. Sometimes I feel there really is SOMETHING missing though. It's the relationships. They aren't built on a foundation of God. That's why it is not feeling so complete to me. I know it... You are who you surround yourself with.
Emotionally. Honestly, I've been breaking down. Coming all the way to the end of my first quarter in college and onto finals week... MELTDOWN. I catch myself tearing up, bawling. It's just too much to take on for me. I've grown weak. I'm really not the tough-girl Cathy I use to be hehehe...
Tomorrow will be EXTREME STUDY MODE DAY. Please make sure I do not get consumed by Restaurant City on Facebook. I have been consumed by this extremely entertaining pasttime. I literally spend hours upon hours clicking away on that game. It's a bad addiction I tell you. I want to make myself proud & my parents proud. Hopefully I am as productive as can be tomorrow. I can do it! 아자아자 화이팅!! 
SO right now I just turned on "MERRY CHRISTMAS, HAPPY HOLIDAYS" by N'SYNC. I literally have it busted on high in my dorm right now at 1:40 A.M. This is how my face looks like right now --> ~ I am soooooooooo ready for C H R I S T M A S ♥ I love the holidays. Seriously so full of joy & cheer when you look around. I honestly don't really have anything great happen to me, but I still love the feeling! The snow, the cheer, the family, the friends, the music, the food, the gifts, the decorations, the L O V E 
Anyways, that is all. I will continue to download cheerful Christmas music now. I wish everyone luck with finals & don't hesitate to call me up

| Fasting is an important part of building a right & strong relationship with God.
Fasting liberates us from slavery to our appetites while we focus on the true "Bread of Life," Jesus Christ. When fasting, we make a small self-sacrifice to focus on our Savior's awesome sacrifice and plan for us.
By nature we are egocentric and must work at becoming God-centered. A major purpose of fasting is to learn humility-- to better understand how great God is and how weak, sinful and needy we are.
God delights in humble hearts. "This is the one I esteem: he who is humble and contrite in spirit, and trembles at my word" -- Isaiah 66:2 "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven."
God wants us to "hunger and thirst for righteousness" (Matthew 5:6) When we fast, we increasingly feel hungry and physically weak. In addition to reinforcing the fact that God is the One who sustains us and supplies all our needs, an important lesson of this is that we rapidly become weaker spiritually when we neglect the nourishment of prayer and other efforts to be with God.
Fasting should teach us to be willing to sacrifice in many ways in the service of others. How much are we willing to sacrifice?
"Then your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will quickly appear; then your righteousness will go before you and the glory of the Lord will be your rear guard. Then you will call, and the Lord will answer; you will cry for help, and he will say: Here am I." (Isaiah 58:8-9)

| Yeup. 저는 그냥 여전하답니다. The days in my life have been growing longer & longer. Everything seems like such a drag now. Am I getting old or what?
저는요, 많이 힘들답니다. 저요, 바보 처럼 기다리는게 이제 싫답니다. 한 사람 떼문에 힘들어 해야하는게... 한 사람 떼문에 아파야 하는게... 이제 싫습니다. 그 사람 떼문에 힘들고, 아파도, 끝에서는 위로를 받는거면 괜찮습니다. 근데요, 저는 안그러습니다. 저는요, 위로같은거 못받고 계속 아파야만 한답니다. 그니까여... 저 이젠 괜찮습니다... 그동안 뒤에서 바라보면서 행복했고여.. 이제 그사람도 행복했으면 합니다... 저 없이.
This past Thursday was Thankgiving. I remember when every Thanksgiving past, I would sit down and write to each & every person in my life why I was thankful to have them in my life. This Thanksgiving, haven't done it. Why? I'm lazy. I'm old. I'm tired. I do feel like I should and actually was going to do that in fact, but I have a very important Econ test on Monday. Along with a Apparel Merchandising project due right after on the same day. Not to mention, I have a project and presentation due on Tuesday as well. Please kill me now. Stuffing me with pumpkin pie 'til I cannot breathe is my best option of death right now...... YUM ;;; I love pumpkin pie. Thank God for Thanksgiving traditional foods, yes?
Beverly Hill Urth Caffe's Organic Pumpkin Pie - $40
 
So basically, HAPPY THANKSGIVING 11/26/09.
You know what that means? It's almost December. You know what that means? It's almost Christmas! You know what that means? It's almost January. You know what that means? It's almost a NEW YEAR! You know what that means? It's almost my birthday. That is all. How exciting! I have so many new resolutions to make since I never am able to keep the ones I'm suppose to for the current year. Fail, hahaahha.-
My WISHLIST: - Fuji Instax in white - any digital camera - nice Nikon or Canon... 
Update of myself. My tired face. Too much korean dramas & not enough sleep. Now face is getting more tired trying to clean up my mess left by the procrastination monster.
My current obsession. I sleep at the crack of dawn watching this drama. No jokes. Sigh* The male characters in this show are just ridiculously delicious eye candy    I love the music, the show, the boys. MUHAHAHAHA.....
Not as crazy about this drama since I just started it. Definitely loving 이병현 though.
So, I wasted a good half-hour updating with this entry. I probably could have finished a good portion of my project. (one of them). So therefore, I will stop from this point on in order to get my priorities straight.
- I LOVE JEREMY! Cathy -
