Anticipating the midpoint
'cause luncheoning always incorporates a steal of a $1.60 concoct-it-yourself ensalada deal,
vats of radiating sunbeams in which to bask, and cacophonous coworker chitter chattery fun. Hark! 'Tis time now. Toodles!

A weekend highlight
Praying before dinnertime at the abode of Irene:
Poppa Cho: Dear God, thank you for this food You've given us. Thank you for bringing Irene safely home. Thank you for bringing Helen here tonight. Please watch over her pimple...In Jesus' name, amen.
You've a hankering that someone sincerely cares when they pray for your pimple. HAHAHA.

L8s Ang3les
We've an unabashed predilection for both stellar photography and the City of Angels,
so we dilly-dallied to the neighboring 
Annenberg Space for Photography,
for their heralded L8s Ang3les exhibit that is currently showcasing extraordinary images of the multifaceted metropolitan hotspot we dub home.
'Tis spectacularly mind-boggling the breadth of contemporary photography's ability to capture the spirit of places and their people in particular points in history, from images of Hollywood's glitterati, to the everyday life of Angelenos across time's transience, to the Rodney King riots circa 1992, to the unremitting humanitarian crisis in Darfur. All the photographed moments stilled in time by cameras resonated the diversity and vivacity of this influential town.

All the photographed moments stilled in time by cameras resonated the diversity and vivacity of this influential town.What struck me most was the prevailing theme of the mass media's deprecating effect on society, notably, LA. The overexalted commodity of celebrity, exacerbated by eerthang Hollywood trumpets as worthy, infiltrates those who reside Hollywood's shadows, fueling minds with a worldview composed of detrimental ideals as fame, body image, stereotypes, wealth, among others. Exceedingly disheartening stuff. Which propagates the vehement desire to really make a difference in this town via the industry to which I've been appointed, Lord-willing. 'Tis my mission. 'Cause really, all the things of this world shall pass away, and eternity matters. Which is where the gospel comes in.
"For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride in possessions—is not from the Father but is from the world. And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever." -1 John 2:16-17

Mercy in quandary
The nine-to-six has been shrouded by a perturbing air of eeriness today, complemented by hushed tones behind closed doors, furtive glances and strained smiles amongst all, and sinking hearts as coworker chummies tread past with boxes brimming with belongings.
Thank you Lord for sparing me from the daddy conglomerate-issued layoff bug that is finally infecting our division. There’ve been so many bombshells in top-tier management shifts of late (as publicized by the trades), and now ‘tis trickling down. Thank you so much for your mercy and grace, Lord. I don’t deserve it.
Errbody is on their tippity toes for we haven't the faintest idea what shall follow. No matter what transpires, praise God for He is steadfast and faithful amid tumultuous imbroglio (Psalm 86:15), and that all things work together for GOOD (Romans 8:28).

How I know he cares
Whilst congregating 'round the cousin campfire this Sunday past and swapping relationship anecdotes:
My (younger) brother: You know why Helen doesn't have a boyfriend? You know why she's been single? 'Cause guys know that when they come over, I'm gonna kick their a**. They take one look at me and they'll back the f*** off. Nobody's gonna touch my sister, shoot.
HAHAHAHA!

In honor of all the daddy-os,
we baked delectable edibles on Saturday's daybreak
(whilst intaking unforeseen blunders, of course)
in the form of "godlimen" to gift to the CFBC poppas who encourage us all by the way they humbly serve the congregation and lead their famarees in Christ.
We traversed to witness Irene's multifarious talents at GSPC's talent show for Mongolia missions that evening. So proud I am to have such sensationally talented chummies. God is boundlessly and astoundingly creative in the gifts He bestows upon people, and 'tis such a blessing to see them used for His glory.
Sunday entailed a class full of kiddos who were a handful. Of joy. Per usual.
The famaree commemorated Father's Day with the momma's side yesterday. Such blessed cacophonous fun
amid a surplus of foodie goodies,
the clan of 13 outta 20 cousins on the momma's side, minus 7 who are situated elsewhere for the time being,
and a colossal cake
in honor of all the poppas!
I love my dashing daddy-o mucho! Thank you Lord for my poppa who is amazing to the maximus in the totality of respects.
Bowlingballoo thence transpired with the cousins
to ceremonialize Jessica's birthday. Happiest of birthdays to you!
I love mi familia!!!

Dodgy day
We roamed o'er to the heart of Dodgertown the evening prior
and had a bona fide ball
at the Dodgers vs. A's ballgame
within the rambunctious fan-crammed stadium,
particularly 'cause we were bestowed spiffified field level seats that belonged to the iconic John Wayne!
Jeepers! 'Twas a supreme blast in all respects, indeed...and the Dodgers triumphed! Huzzah for the City of Angels! I was sans camera for the remainder of the night, but subsequent jollity ensued with these fun characters:

Quite nice is twice
the amount of surprise ambushes upon AlexHong, an imperative development whence we ascertained his presence was elsewhere on Tuesday evening!
(Bushels of thanks to RJ for the snapshots thus far!) But the following night's schemes to ensnare him in birthday whoopla proved a saccharine success. HUZZAH!
Happiest of birthdays to you, AlexHong! God has radically transformed your life and I praise God for your faithfulness to the Lord, for your exemplary servant's heart at our local church, for consistently preaching the gospel at bible study, for your love of theology, philosophy, and all things book-related and subsequent desire to use your studies to serve His people, for your penchant for cake and cookies and ice cream , for willing to lose your cool card for Christ, for encouraging us all with your life and testimony, for your vision for CFBC, and for your dependence on God's grace in all things! You are a gargantuan encouragement to me and I pray God will continue to use you to do great things for His kingdom! ROCK ON for the glory of God!
