Fellowship

It's always nice to catch up with friends.

Girl talk

Some ladies at my church hearing the good news (and relieving their days of young romance) about a relationship :)

Patience

Where I wait daily for my acceptance/rejection letters from dental schools. I'm hoping I'm going to get a big envelope soon!

Helen

Among my 8 students that I teach, Helen is the sweetest and one that I am closest to. She is such a faithful servant of the Lord and I can't wait to see what God will do with her life!

Long Beach City College

While driving back from the airport, I drove by Long Beach City College, where there were rabbits running around the lawn. Since I had time to kill, I decided to snap a few.

There were about a dozen rabbits running around.

He knows I'm on his territory.

They were surprisingly unafraid of me! I shot up to a foot in front of them!

So this baby rabbit was so occupied with his food that he didn't notice/care when I came by.
But he suddenly realized I was there and ran away :(

Ready for his photo shoot.

Day hike

We decided to take a hike in Fullerton at Coyote Hills. Although we lost our trail, it was still a nice day to be hiking!Michael had a lot of waiting to do as I stopped every so often.

I'm still learning to do lens flare.

'Wait, another picture?' said Michael. Here's my cameo.

AWANA

I spent the afternoon watching the AWANA kids at my church play games. They are so adorable!

They had a relay race where they raced each other with bean bags on their heads! ;)

I think she didn't want to be first :)

Watching.

Why do friends often come in three's?

Timothy wanted to yell :)

So before the church groundskeeper confiscated their newfound toy, they were running around on this clothing rack.

Daybreak

Having woken up early to take my sister to the airport, I snapped a quick shot of the sky at 6 am before taking off. Having taken this from standing on my car, I still couldn't get enough height to capture the horizon. Any tips?

The Wait at Fukada

My sister and I went to a Japanese restaurant in Irvine called Fukada. Although we waited a good half-hour, the food was definitely worth the wait!

The adorable & super-friendly little hapa boy who saw me waiting outside from inside the restaurant.

I know taking pictures of rears aren't flattering, but I hoped the subject of the pictures would compensate. It's interesting to think of the conversations being had when we wait to be seated, both inside and outside restaurants.

Cuties

At my church, these three are the toddlers that dominate our cry room on Sunday mornings. They each have so much personality and are so funny. I love these babies!!!

Big Bear

I went to a college retreat the day after new year's day to spend time with some collegians at my church. Although I didn't go snowboarding :(, it was still a lot of fun.

During our down time, I learned how to play pool. Luckily I didn't have to play with them. SO COMPETITIVE! haha...
