its been so long. im so sad.

WHY HAVE I NEGLECTED XANGA?!!!?
&now i have an explosion of feelings.

I feel lucky.
I feel lucky i grew up a good kid. Even through all the crap i
went through, the things i’ve seen & heard, all the brokenness.

It was just something. I could say it was all me but I’d probably
be lying if I didn’t say God most likely did it all in me.

There are so many things I can do. I’m capable of so much.
There’s so much I’ve done. I have so many accomplishments.

I put myself down comparing to others. I’m not smart enough.
I’m not motivated enough. I’m not skinny enough. I’m not pretty
enough. I’m not enough of this & that. But I realized. What if
I’m perfect? & then I sat there & really thought about it.. realizing..
just exactly how perfect I am. That God made no mistakes & that
these “flaws” I see are not flaws but traits. To set me apart. To
distinguish the Cathy Jimin Woo that I am.

My family makes me who I am. I love them (no matter how much
we may argue & no matter how broken we may seem).
My friends make me who I am. I’ve met some awesome people who
encourage me & rebuke me when I need it. They know me. I need
to remind myself that I’m defined by the people I choose to
surround myself with.
Myself. I make who I am. I am a daughter of God. I am His servant.

My name is Cathy Jimin Woo.
I’m writing this entry to remind myself of who I am. I don’t want to
forget and hopefully won’t. I love God. I know I don’t deserve His love,
mercy, forgiveness, & most importantly His grace. That’s why I feel
so broken and terrible when I realize I don’t spend enough time with Him.
He deserves my attention and I find myself busy with so much else.

On the other hand. I’m passionate about life. I know I’m meant to be
in the Hospitality industry. That’s why I’m at Cal Poly Pomona in the
Hospitality program. I’m so blessed to be here. I’m a pretty hard worker.
I aim high. I try to get the best grades I can. I know I’m not smart. I
don’t look down on myself for that though. Because, I know that there’s
nobody that works as hard as I do. I even got an opportunity to be in
the Eboard for the Cal Poly Hospitality Association as Secretary. I know
that I don’t do much because I’m not given much responsibility, but I make
sure that I accomplish my tasks with the highest of standards. And even
more blessing is that I was able to serve as DPD this year in KCCC. Through
this opportunity I’ve grown so much. I’ve gotten to really spend time with
God & realize that I can do so much to serve Him. And all of this I got to be
leader for only in my 2nd year of college. I’m so blessed to be living close to
my campus & out of my home. I’ve grown even more independent &
learned how to really take care of myself through life. Having no car I struggle
everyday. Feeling so bad asking for rides. Feeling so rude. That is why I’m
truly blessed by my job on campus. The pay is higher than anyone I know with
a campus job. I got the job on the spot & with no work study. It was such
a relief & blessing. God provided me with the job b/c He always provides.
My fluent Korean speaking skills have given me great job opportunities when
I’ve needed it. My experience with different jobs has been amazing & fun.
Being American born I’m lucky my Korean is good enough that I have no accent.
I never went to Korean school. How lucky am I? I even speak a little Spanish
and Mandarin thanks to getting the opportunity to learn them at school.
I’ve been struggling to find a new church. After serving in TKC it was hard to
leave. It was an amazing opportunity for me that helped me to grow with God.
But I feel like God made me leave so I can go out & find Him in a different
way as I myself have changed too. I have a passion for people & food. I love
to meet and get to know people. Such wonderful experiences and personalities
and other things that make people so unique. It’s exciting and a blessing.
I love food. Honestly, I’m so lucky I can eat as much as I do. I’m not skinny
but I don’t mind the way I look if I get to eat all the dessert I want. I see food
as art. Satisfying a pallet. Creating something people can enjoy. I’m glad I
don’t go clubbing and partying all the time. I’m glad I didn’t get sucked into
smoking and drugs. I’m glad that I don’t have the urge to get drunk everyday.
I’m glad I’m a virgin and that I don’t sleep around. I’m glad that I don’t feel
pressured to have to do all these degrading things to be cool and thing that
these things will give me a right to call myself experienced in life.
My confidence in myself is extremely strong. My morals are as hard as stone.
My standards for myself are high. I am not shaken. I am classy and worth it.
I can do anything I set my mind to. I’m going to have a bright future. I
am blessed with a voice. I love music. I grew up playing piano, clarinet,
& saxaphone. Not everyone can read music. Not everyone can sing either.
God blessed me with these talents. (Even though I’m not celebrity status
I realized that it’s still not something everyone has been blessed with). I can
draw too. I love sketching, & I’m not too bad. I can play sports. I can crack
a joke. I can lead. I can influence. I can be creative. I can do much…
And I have all these talents because God wants us to offer everything to Him.
He meant for me to be capable of so much because He deserves a lot. What
an intelligent God. Hahahaha :) What a cute Father. So giving & loving.
I have clothes on my back. Food in my stomach. A place to stay. An education.
AHHHHHHHHHHh I’m just way too blessed for being so unworthy.

This may have sounded like a long list of bragging or showing off but I
can say from my heart that I do not mind if people think that. I know myself
that I did not write & say these kind of these things for that purpose. I did
this to remind myself of who I am. A blessed daughter of God just so
incredibly thankful for everything I have and am =)

KCCC Banquet was today.
It was okay.
The food was delicious though.

I'm so genuinely happy for the Seniors.
Tonight was there night, & they shined.

Oh how I long to be in their position soon.

I'm in a weird stage of my life right now.
I'm looking back reminiscing about the past.
At the same time I'm trying to see the future.
I'm stuck inbetween and don't know which
way to look at. Look at the now? It's not
working for me...

"Occasionally in life there are those moments
of unutterable fulfillment which cannot be
completely explained by those symbols called
words. Their meanings can only be articulated by
the inaudible language of the heart."
Martin Luther King, Jr.

"One of the most beautiful entities in life is letting
the truth be known, for it reaches this intangible
height of freedom that a lie can never touch."
Khalil Murrell

"The best prayer is what's in your heart.
Take what's there and offer it. It doesn't matter|
if you are desperate or angry. The Lord will hear you."
Marcella

“Some people come into our lives and quickly go.
Some stay for awhile and leave footprints on our hearts.
And we are never, ever the same.”
Anonymous

I've reached a point in my life where I just don't know.
I'm being weird. I'm wondering so many things.
I'm worrying. I'm doubting. I'm hoping. I'm thinking.
I'm STUCK in this place where I can't turn back but
I can't seem to move forward. I wouldn't call it the
"now". I'm stumped with life I guess. My God...
I love you with all my heart but why does it need to
be this hard of a journey? Where it seems like there is
nobody in the world who cares. Even if they understand,
they just don't care. It seems like everything and everyone
is against me... I'm so disconnected...

Here I am.


Currently EMPLOYED :)

I finally got a job and yesterday was my second day.
It was super busy but definitely loved it with the rush!
Guppy Teahouse in Hacienda Heights~
I'm in training for 40 hours right now but hopefully I can finish it
up quick so I can start collecting tips! :(

Currently loving the life.
Why?

I got to spend time with my mother for Mother's Day today.
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY MAMA WOO :)
I got to eat dinner with my mom, sister, & grandpa at an amazing
Japanese restaurant that we've been going ever since we were little.
It was delicious & I got my free greentea icecream for service of course :P

Jesus. My life with Him is awesome. I'm just so thankful even through
whatever things I may be going through right now. I'll admit it's really tough
right now but without Him I don't know how I'd survive. I'm thankful for
this struggle I'm going through. No better reason and time to praise Him!

Realizations. I'm realizing a lot of different things. Stuff I thought I knew I
realized that I was so blinded. Stuff I tried to do I realized I was being
stupid and doing for the wrong reasons. I'm learning a lot about myself through
the choices and decisions I've been making. It's good. I'm growing :)

Makeover. I'm going to be working out like crazy cuz I just got a 24 hour
pass! Body makeover! Also I'm thinking about cutting & coloring my hair
very soon so it'll be different. Other stuff I will think of as time comes.

Hopefully things fall into place :) I'm definitely wishing for somethings...


Smile!
Jiminy Woo
