My newest edition of Paris by Night #98 gave me a really good word. Or if you don't understand what I mean then I'll just say that it gave me a really good phrase. Here it is:
"Let's Fly High in 2010."
You can decipher it however you'd like.

Invisible Children (Vid by WongFu)
I was rewatching some old videos by WongFu and I came across this one video that just caught my heart's attention. This video was released October 7th 2005 which was pretty long ago but I would just like to remind you of what's out there in the world, not just America.

It's a Miracle I say...
You know me.
So this shouldnt be too hard to calculate.
You know that...
Jasypants + Science classes = epic fail.
So add Micro to that equation... it'd be...
Jasypants + Microbiology
Then add "6 week course" to the equation so...
Jasypants + Microbiology +[in a] 6 week course
What does that equal to?
That's right! Major epic fail.
HOWEVER! Here's a new equation for you.
One that helps us get the equation RIGHT.
GOD + Jasypants + Microbiology +[in a] 6 week course
equals to..............
EPIC VICTORY! ^^V I passed!
It's ALLLLLLLLLLL thanks to God.
Note to a certain someone: Sorry I keep forgetting to give you back your book. If you want to sell it, how much for? [I will give you the money when I see you] If you want the book back, I will write it down the moment you tell me an answer! Haha.. thanks a bunch!

Gettin' Your Groove On...
Alright. I know most of you know that I'm a very stiff person during worship. LAWLS. I admit it. I've never liked dancing during worship even if it's an upbeat song. I mean, I'll clap and stuff, but dancing ... I think you'd have to make me your puppet in order for me to dance. HAHA, yeah I know, sad. However, this past Sunday, I came to church as my usual self - a stiff Jasypants. But during worship, I just felt like dancing. I danced more during this past Sunday, then I ever did at church since I came. I can't say in my life cause I did take dancing class during this past Spring. Haha... but afterwards, it felt good. A small part - I'd like to give credit to, is Johnny, Mathias, Paul, and Jennifer. Since they were in my peripheral viewsight and it was RIGHT NEXT TO ME, haha. The rest though is ALL God for making me feel like dancing. Haha :] So... for the first time in a VERY long time - I just remembered I danced this one time with Alice like crazy.. but yeah, very vague - I got my groove on. ^^V
Your Jasypants.
Your Jasypants.

Learning under God is way more fun :]
Today, as I was in class, I had a little revelation that totally shocked me. I had never thought of my financial worries as of now to be like this because of certain divine appointments. I always put myself in deep thought when I get super bored, wherever I am. People would usually ask me if I was daydreaming. I don't really think that's the right word to use in this case. Ha.
My revelation:
When an old [best] friend of mine and I were still very close. Only a couple of you know her. I had saved a lot of money [at the time it seems like a lot of money and I value money so I still think it's a lot of money, haha]. Well, we were the opposite when it came to spending. She'd save, I'd occasionally spend at special times of the year all of that money I'd save up; usually I'd save up for months, treat myself, save again - easily. I guess you can say that I probably didn't really pay attention and was just saving it, hoping to spend it in the end. Well, after she and I departed ways, another good friend and I are now, somewhat going through the same thing. She spends mindlessly, even sometimes on things she prob won't even use or whatnot, with the money she's saved since she was young, very young. On the other hand, since I was somewhat quickly losing the money I had saved up from my previous spend, I felt really irritable and disappointed in myself about it. (*note: I always spend but leave at least $10 - $50 dollars behind so that it can help me save up again)
But today, I realized that she was brought back to me from God to make me realize about my past; that I should really start paying attention to what I have saved and what I have spent because of this economy. Also, that I can learn from her wreckless spending from time to time to change my habits. So now, I've been slowly but surely, saving money when I can and buying things I will really use. I even have a list I wrote of things I would like to buy if possible/necessary but I told myself that if I can't get it by the time they run out in stock, I would be sad about it and that it's just God telling me that I don't need it. =] Do you wanna see the list I have so far? Hahah, it's pretty long.
Nah. Wont show you. xP

@jaesonma & more...
You're prob wondering why I put "@jaesonma" instead of just his name. I'm too use to twitter at the moment so forgive me. :D I'm not promoting it or anything; just letting you know if I start doing that all of a sudden and doing it a lot. Haha...
Anyways, moving on. There's just so much to talk about when it comes to FRESH09. However, I'll mention ONE thing that I knew was totally from God. Alright, these past couple of months, I've been thinking a lot about music and whatnot; lyrics and just a song, a specific song actually. It's called LIFE. Well, I've always had a feeling that Jaeson Ma would be a good candidate to sing a song called LIFE to just touch people's hearts about the meaning of LIFE and whatnot. Well, when Jaeson started his debut at FRESH09 last night, the first song he sang was a song by the same title LIFE. Immediately, I was blown away by it and started laughing and smiling about it. I kept saying, "I can't believe this! No! I can! It's totally from God! Omgosh! This is soo crazy!" (LOL *cough karen cough*) If you guys want to rip Jaeson's single CD, just contact me to borrow it. I already have 1 person who wanted to borrow it once I'm doing listening to it a bajillion times :D
Alright, next. So this morning, when I was about to eat breakfast, I prayed (of course) before and it wasn't like I didn't want to say the word "revival" or anything but it wasn't what I was going for in my morning's prayer. I tried to overcome saying it and after 5 times, I gave up because I realized that God wanted me to say it even if it's not what I was going for. So I said it. After I said it, in my mind, I automatically knew that something will happen, a certain new and different revival will happen today. During the worship, Annie said that she felt a revival within' ourselves is occuring and I had my eyes closed at the time and when she said that, I literally and immediately opened my eyes. I started smiling and giggling a little and got into the worship even more than I was before I heard that.
Oh & another thing. After the concert, the rest of us went to eat at Garden Cafe. Lately, I haven't eaten a huge amount like I usually would before. So typically (now at least) my dish looked like I barely touched it. However, I was eating. It reminded me of when a good friend of mine, Anna, was eating a salad from Carls and she was like nonstop eating it but every time I looked at her plate, it looked the same. (LAWLS!) That's what happened with my dish. So in the end, I decided to take it home. Once I got home, my dad mentioned something about how he hasn't eaten. I looked at my box of food and was like, "You haven't eaten!? Well there yah go! My treat! Have all you want, hahahaha I'm not going to be eating it until tomorrow if no one eats it" And later on, he came into my room and asked me if it was really alright for him to eat it & I was like, "Heck ya" and he was like "oh okay .. yeah perfect timing when you came home cause I was super hungry" and I laughed (but he was in his room by this time) and said "It's alllllllll God's timing" (: I literally said after, "God, you are so good"
Ah, today's msg was NEATTTTT. Sarah Yang. That sistah is so blessed and annointed! I need to still buy her book. x___x Haven't gotten a chance to do that. Her msg today was what I think about a quarter of the time. So when she talked about this, it really got me thinking some more about it. I understood what she was talking about; understood everything. I even wondered to myself, guiltying myself, "where has your kindness, your forgiving, and loving self gone to, Jasmine?" I literally thought about that the entire time and I still am right now. It gave my heart so much heaviness because I looked at myself recently, this past year, and I can only say I was truly kind, truly forgiving, and loving only a couple of times this past year. It was so heartbreaking to me that I wasn't as kind, as forgiving, and as loving as I was before. (Those of you who dont agree with me, *Sigh it's alright - but those of you who've seen me that way know what I mean .. I think, HAHA God is good) Yeah. The end. Nah, just kidding. So I think I'm going to give myself a do-over. I.... forgot what I was gonna put. HAHA oh wells! God is good. (: That's all I can say right now but of course, you all already know that.
There's just some things I'd like to announce/promote:
Make Abortion UNTHINKABLE
Jaeson Ma's new movie 1040
Check those out! (: Thanks for reading. I'm so joyful. THANK YOU JESUS!

I love it when...
God takes me away to that secret place & gives me lyrics from His heart. Forget about sleep, forget about studying, forget about homework, I rather be with Him and write the longing of His heart and my heart.

What These Eyes See by Jasypants
Where the river flows
Down to the ocean it goes
How could I face
such a beautiful scene
with such mercy and grace
and a shoulder to lean (on).
Tears coming down
Gravity pulling it down to the ground
What can I say
To paint a picture for you
To show you what these eyes see
What can I do
To help you feel what I feel
To show you that He is real
Where the sun will rise
Darkness will soon have to hide
How could I frown
When I look upon it
Its light shines bright upon me
and gives me the lift I need
Heart is racing
Angels are here, and I'm under their wings
I'm at Your mercy
Let Your rain fall on me.
One day, I must Copyright all these. Thank you.
Heart, Jasypants.

Unofficial Late "Song" for Austen Javelin Lee
I'm calling it unofficial because I haven't exactly finished it yet. Still need improvement on the 1st verse & the Chorus. However, I can reassure you that it'll be done by the end of this coming week. I'm very sorry that I didn't go to IMPACT today. I hope you guys didn't miss me much, haha. I woke up late which wasn't what I planned & had to study for Anatomy WHICH at this very moment, I am still doing so... ADD OIL! :]
Well, as I've been listening to Jaeson Ma's single LOVE & FM's Animal CD, I suddenly got this inspiration to write a "late" (hence the title of this entry) "song" for Austen Javelin Lee. It's unofficial in another sense because it's not really a song because I can't compose music at the moment so yea, haha. Aww, I know. I am sad to say that I kind of forgot the lyrics God gave me the night before I actually wrote this "song" down and regret not writing it down when He gave it to me, but I'm sure that He'll give me even better lyrics! So stay tuned! When I'm really done with it, I'll post it up here.
This is just an update so you guys don't think I've left you or anything.

people don't listen to me
Apparently, people - even the close friends - don't listen to me at all or something. So when I open my mouth, what do you hear? LOL I know everyone gets distracted and all and that's one of the reasons why I repeat myself a lot to everyone about certain things. Sometimes I ask myself, "why do you even bother, Jaz, when you know they don't listen?" I always don't know how to answer that. I guess I just hope people listen? Yea. Maybe that's it. Makes sense. *Sigh...
Anyway, this past weekend, I spent my days with 4Cthepower; they help young people such as you and I (unless you're not) bring out the creative side to our knowledge, and with Wong Fu Productions, Tom Ngo, KevJumba, Far*east Movement (FM), (somewhat Jaeson Ma; saw him though! With his mother), Quest Dance Crew, and David Choi. Also, if any of you know who Cassie is, she made a special appearance at the ISA concert which blew my mind away! Didn't expect that to happen at all. ISA concert itself was terrific. These guys are super talented that even Jaeson Ma supports them! Terrific guys (with 1 girl Lydia Paek) who are people just like you and I. Wong Fu started in SG/Alhambra whereas FM started in LA.
My friends and I (ANNABANANA, NANCYLETRAN, KAESEN - which is actually a nickname I'm giving him, MATTIEPARAGAS, JASONANGELES, &AARON) were interviewed TWICE and will be on youtube soon. First interview was with Tom Ngo and got to hang with him a little - he just wanted to interview the first people in line :P He's cool though, very real and totally hilarious. Second interview was with OMGKPOP press with Nikki (unless she spells it differently, ha) and unfortunately it was only the four of us: Anna Banana, Nancy Le Tran, Kaesen, and me. Got a hug from Tom Ngo! :D It was niiiiiice.
So those of you who were wondering where in the world I was on Sunday, I did mention for like 3 weeks that I wasn't gonna be able to go to Church because of this.
Alright. Another thing. There was something else that came out of this that I was worried about before. I managed to give FM and Jaeson Ma Johnny's CDs. I had two of them, which were suppose to be birthday presents for two of my friends, but I knew this was once in a year thing so I just had to change my plans. When the concert was done, I was in a desperate mode. HA. Sad. I felt so embarrassed for doing it though but I was glad I did. When the four of us didn't get a chance to get a meet and greet with the artists cause a quarter of the General Adm people went to the VIP line, we basically got pwned (or should I say ripped off by them).
So um... Kaesen and I decided to go to the back cause that's where they prob be. I was kind of nervous about doing it (plus I didn't get to see Jaeson Ma after the concert either. Couldn't spot him anywhere which was a huge bummer to me). However, as we were walking back there, we passed by someone that looked A LOT LIKE DJ VIRMAN from FM. Anna was like "wow he looks a lot like dj virman. I wonder if that's him." I tooked at him for a really long time and thought so myself that it prob is but since they weren't sure we decided not to go up to him cause no one - no girls - were going up to him and he's pretty popular cause he worked with Power 106.
We got to the back; failure. There was a few girls waiting there too and we talked to them a little and when one of them saw Kev Jumba and Phil looking out they gestured us to come over and we were like O_O Yey? xD But this one chick kind of pushed us away. Fortunately, Phil ruined DJ Virman's plan on being like the fans and trying to get an autograph. It was so funny and cute of him. He was right behind me and I knew that God gave me this chance to give it to them. After I turned around, Anna gestured me about it. He was talking to Phil about it and I literally said to him (didn't wanna ask if he's Virman cause that'd just be so sad if his fans didn't even know if it's him and I was totally certain that it was him):
Me - "Hi, excuse me."
Virman - "Oh, hey there."
Me - "Um I was just wondering if it was possible if ... You guys work, talk to Jaeson Ma, right?"
Virman - "Ohhh, Jaeson. Yeah from time to time. He was here today actually.
Me - "Oh, yeah I know but I didn't get a chance to meet up with him and I really wanted to give you guys and Jaeson these CDs"
(Handed him the CDs while he continued listening to me - he actually LISTENED TO ME lol *cough)
Me - "as a gift"
Virman - Ohhh, thanks! Cool, yeah. I'll totally give it to them. Thank you.
Then I kind of forgot if he said anything else after that. Argh, forgot to tell him my name cause I was so overwhelmed by the fact that it was him! xD Yes... still. Plus, Anna was like asking him for a picture and stuff so I joined in. One with her and him, one of him and me. After that, all I said was thank you soooooo much and walked off. How stupid, right? xD But I have twitter so I can easily contact them. Left them a message so yeah.
He is such a doll.
♥ Jasypants
p.s. it was so funny after the concert b/c everyone who was leaving bumped up the song "girls on the dance floor" by FM while they drove off lol
p.p.s here's a littl' something something for you guys to watch :D made by my very own friend TONYDANG: ISABABY!

Then I kind of forgot if he said anything else after that. Argh, forgot to tell him my name cause I was so overwhelmed by the fact that it was him! xD Yes... still. Plus, Anna was like asking him for a picture and stuff so I joined in. One with her and him, one of him and me. After that, all I said was thank you soooooo much and walked off. How stupid, right? xD But I have twitter so I can easily contact them. Left them a message so yeah.
He is such a doll.

long long day
today was extraordinary.
a handful of impacters were drunk in the Holy Spirit.
it was a sight you had to see;
a sight I fell in love with.
i will always remember Momo's drunken self,
bouncing around the place
& when she wasn't doing that,
she could barely walk, let alone stand.
though I didn't get that drunk in the Spirit,
I did get SOMETHING from Momo; Laughter & Heat
couldn't breathe in the car when the laughter
started up again to the point where we both got tired of laughing.
Bought the CDs.
Will advertise them on Tuesday.
I want to get DRRRRUUUUUUUNNKKKKKK.
in the HHOOLLYYYY SSPPIIIIRRIIIITT, OF COURSE!

p.s. I am so proud of Jeff (:

ISA & ENDLESS LONGING
Alright. I know what you've all been thinking.
"Jasmine hasn't come for a while," SHIKASHI...
this past Sunday, I did attend the service;
start to finish and even stayed a bit longer.
Well, I've had one heck of a summer so far.
I'm sorry, though.
For not going to IMPACT for so long
&for not being able to go to summer camp.
Relatives came back from NYC to visit
&we're all trying to give them a good time.
Matthew&Madeline are so very kyuuuute. [:
Ever since class ended for me, I've been thinking about
a certain motive I've had before (not including writing):
VIDEOING :D haha
So tomorrow, Anna and I will be videoing ourselves
for a special purpose that we've been talking about
for half of the summer & in which we're so very excited about!
INTERNATIONAL SECRET AGENTS 2009!
(at the SAN GABRIEL MISSION PLAYHOUSE)
They're going to have many asian talent groups there
making this a huge concert for many who have followed
each&every one of their works, whether they're:
*KevJumba, Bruno Mars, GLP, Kina Grannis,
*David Choi, *Quest Dance Crew,
*Wong Fu Productions & *Far East Movement (FM)
hosted by their very own Lydia Paek & Tom Ngo
We'll be sending in a video of ourselves
"just for the heck of it" and "for kicks"
as a contestant for a chance to win free tickets to the concert
&to say something indirectly to Wong Fu Productions&FM:
Philly-Wes-Ted &
Kevnish-Jsplif-Prohgress-Catch-DjVirman
even though we met them on Monday already
Our main goal in making that video is probably to
erase our shyness, build us some guts, & be ourselves;
something not many of you have seen of me, let alone anna
(there's only been a few of you IMPACTers who have
*cough Alice cough* [= )
Of course, there is but one more goal to this:
Say good luck to those who are actually competing in this contest
This concert is sponsored by JC PENNYs,
a store in which I shop at half of the time I go to the mall
When you enter into this contest, you're suppose to wear
something from JC PENNYs & guess what?
I have plenty of their clothing; enough to lend out for this video.
Anyways, after this, I'm planning on doing more videos.
Just in case I don't follow through,
I have a busy schedule during fall.
Another thing...
about JOHNNY WANG's "Endless Longing" CD
I will be advertising it as much as I can wherever I go.
I might even advertise it in the video.
We'll see what happens.
I want people to hear the soothing&heart-melting songs
that Johnny has been so patiently been working on for
more than 1 year (I'm guessing, haha)
I did say it before & I can say it again;
Johnny's music will melt the hearts of nations because whenever I hear it, it melts mine.
This has been an update of what's been going on in
Jasmine's life during the summer time, haha.
Stay tune for another update at another time & month.
Thanks :P

which in that, we do look happy so yeah :]

Swine Flu (H1N1)
Please pray for my good friend Jeunesse. She just got the news earlier tonight that she had been infected with Swine Flu. Please pray for a quick recovery so that she may be able to resume class with full energy given to her by our Father. Thank you.
Love, Jasmine.

It's been a while...
I admit, it's been a while since I've blogged. I haven't had the motivation to do so so forgive me, please. I hope everybody is doing swell. Lots been going on, like usual. It started with birthdays, graduations, having a bonding moment in my classes, memorial service, heartbreak, transformers 2, to a lunch gathering with my old dance classmates. Of course, God has been teasing me with certain things and the devil trying to apprehend me; however, God has prevailed once again! I saved about 300 dollars worth of supplies for microbiology (cough) and got a passing grade (a C or above) in a class I had to retake from fall. I have gotten more motivated from having such a long relaxing semester which I somewhat regretted, but still cherished and enjoyed. God is ever so good.
The end.
God bless you.
The end.
God bless you.

It's been HOT
Goodbye, Steven.
See you in 3 years.
May God bless & anoint the HECK out of you.
You will inspire others; He will use you well.
We love you & so does He. Never forget.
He'll always be there for you & we will too.
You're a blessing to us, always.
Of course, come back and visit :)
So if you haven't noticed, it's been HOT this past week. JFA went really well, if you wanted to know. We got to talk to a lot of people and helped them out with information to avoid abortion. It was crazy and intense though, but we persevered and God is incredible. He provides and we're eternally grateful.
Tiffa's birthday was crazy (: The end.
Tonight's prayer meeting is the best in so many ways.
- God's heavy presence.
- Full of laughter.
- Full of encouragement for Steven.
(*Reminder: WE LOVE YOU BRO!)
- Felt heat below where I sat while praying/interceding.
(*It was very hot, literally)
Inside jokes are the best. Haha(:

JFA
I just want to remind all of you that Saturday, May 16th is our first seminar of Justice For All exhibit at PCC at the Harbeson Hall and the Galloway Plaza. If you cannot make it tomorrow, there's another three days of it on the 18th to 20th of next week. I hope you can join us at PCC any time on those days to really get out there and stand up for the little ones who do not have a voice to say anything about abortion. Tomorrow, it's at 9am to 2pm. If you want, you can contact me at (626) 410-5415 or Alice Wang at (626) 807-3249. I'll have updates for Monday through Wednesday later on this weekend. (Or... you can come tomorrow and find out! Haha, jk! But... you can still come tomorrow lol) If you're wondering, it's basically a training on how to talk to people who oppose our viewpoint without really getting into a debate/argument with them, instead with peace, joy, love, and kindness. Hosted by Koinonia Christian Club and Justice For All, a pro-life group in Texas. Outreach is going to take place on the 18th to 20th from 9 am to 3:30 pm. (reach me only, not alice lol she wont be able to make it on those days)

A Harry Potter Moment
Remember in one of the Harry Potter movies where someone tried to fix Harry's arm when it got broken from his game, but failed? ..and his arm became all bendable because it had no bones? Well... it's ok if you don't remember. It felt like a dream, but I doubt that it was. Haha. I woke up and somewhat knew that my right arm was super numb from weirdly sleeping on it. However, what I didn't know was that it was morbidly, horridly, and disturbingly (I know they're all nearly the same kind of words haha) numb.
def. of morbid - suggesting an unhealthy mental state or attitude; unwholesomely gloomy, sensitive, extreme, etc.
def. of horrid - extremely unpleasant or disagreeable
def. of disturbing - upsetting or disquieting; dismaying
fyi if you didnt know what these words meant.
Anyways, I even felt it even more so in my heart. I tried to turn to my other side. Tried moving my arm with me and it landed on the bed with a thump. That's when I really woke up. This happened around 7 something this morning. I tried to lift up my arm so it could stand vertically in front of me. It was somewhat hard to do. As it was slowly being lifted up, it seriously felt like the radius and the ulna bone of my right forearm didn't even exist. I wanted to see if my mind was playing tricks on me so I decided to test it out. I moved my forearm from side to side and it scared me. My mind wasn't playing tricks on me. It really did seem like I had no radius or ulna bone in my forearm. I immediately dropped my arm down onto my bed vertically from my eye viewpoint. A minute later, I lifted it back up and decided to put pressure on a certain area of my forearm. I put pressure at the area probably short of where the elbow is (so maybe 3 cm from the elbow) and on the radius part of my forearm. I left it there still pushing pressure onto it for about a minute and finally started getting my feeling back.
it scared me.
hope you guys know what im talking about (about the arm stuff). if not, the forearm is the side of your arm that is closest to your hand, radius bone connects on the thumb side of your forearm, and the ulna bone connects on the opposite side of your thumb all the way to your elbow.

God is GOOOOOOOD.
I thank You for this past week.

I even received an amazing abundance of Your money.
Your timing, might I say once again, is the best.
I love you oh so dearly.
I can't say it enough, haha.

vast ocean
As I was standing at the edge of the shoreline,
the wind blew at me fresh air with medium speed.
Birds flew on low,
not caring who was invading their space.
I looked beyond the vast ocean,
filled with darkness and mystery.
How I long to walk across that morbid land,
in the mist that I'll be forgotten by all.
How it does scare me to walk on such a land,
until I think of You, my Guider and Friend.
With that thought in mind,
I can walk on this vast ocean water without a care in the world.
Anywhere I'm standing is the land we call home,
but I feel lost amongst all these earthly desires.
I want to run away from here,
and You're the Lighthouse that is leading me home.
- Jasmine
Went to the beach last night. Had a bonfire and everything. Took a "romantic" stroll on the shoreline with a couple of people. I literally went back and forth to the bonfire and the shoreline, but I didn't even get to reach the bonfire when more people would come in like pairs down to the shoreline. It was hilarious.
Albert, me, and Chow -> were gonna head back until 2 more people came.
Albert, me, Jeunesse, Eddy, and Chow -> they raced back, 1 person was coming.
Nancy and me ->turned around & saw 2 people running towards us.
Nancy, me, Albert, and Anna -> Albert & Anna raced back.
Nancy and I walked a little more and then walked back.
It's tiring running on the sand!
I'm in love with God. Everything He makes is beautiful. Amen.

How can you...
happy easter, everybody!
I pray that the Holy Spirit fills your hearts and tenderizes them, molds them, and puts in there the confidence, love, compassion, and obedience to do God's will as you have made a covenant with the Father and have made a decision on your part to do His will for the rest of your lives. I pray may the Holy Spirit be that motherly guidance in your lives to walk straight forward on the path that our Father have created for us. God sent his only son down to Earth to be crucified for our sake, for our sins. There is no greater love than this. Not only that but He rose up from the grave in 3 days time; death has been beaten. God is good and He will continue His goodness throughout the years and let us remember that and be gracious, thankful, and joyful that our Father is the most kind, powerful, and faithful Father that has ever lived. He is the true living God and may everyone know that. I pray that as His children, we continue to walk on this path He made for us with boldness, faithfulness, confidence and without doubt, obedient and willing, patience and compassion as what the Father and His son have done. I also pray that whatever happens, good or bad, we still keep faith in our Father for He is faithful to His word. I pray that we put all our troubles in His hands so that He can straighten it out for us for when we trust in Him, the outcome is victory; I proclaim it in His name. I pray in His Mighty Name, Amen.
Let's update on what happened this past weekend, shall we?
Friday - FIRST THING: I had to write a rejection letter to a certain person with a good friend of mine, Anna. We spent an hour trying to figure out how to make it sound less painful for them. I know you're shocked that someone actually liked me (LOL) because I was. Anyway, as I was writing this rejection letter to him, I got two revelations. The first revelation that God gave me was this: this guy is not the right guy for me, however hard I try to think of him that way, it won't happen (lol harsh I know). The second revelation that I got was this: I can understand now how my best friend Darin felt 6 and a half years ago when he knew I was in love with him; that guilt of not being able to give back that love that they have for us. I think I can smile at him more casually than I could have before and I thank this person for that. SECOND THING: I got a chance to talk to Anna's boyfriend, Chris, more about our Father. You see, Chris was and kind of is still a Christian. From talking to him this day I realized one thing; talking to other Christians who question the Bible and doubt its truth is one of the hardest things to encounter. If you think that going through trials is hard, think again. I've been through many trials and I wouldn't be who I am right now if I didn't. I'm thankful for that. However, the questions Chris asked me really hit me; no, not making me rethink about our Father, but more like making me want to find that answer that he's longing for. He told me about a story of his friend, whom I forgot to ask for the name of him.
HERE'S THE STORY: His friend and his friend's dad are the only two FEW devoted Christians that Chris admired. His friend read the word and also lived it; as well as his dad too. All his life, he'd pray to God about his dad, asking God to keep his dad's health in order (healthy). Then one day, they found out that his dad got cancer. Bummer, right? So right when he heard this, he prayed for 5 years to God asking Him to heal his dad. So in a nutshell, his dad still died from cancer. During this, he had to go to Mexico in his dad's place because his dad was in the hospital. Chris went to go visit him everyday for his friend and one day, his friend's dad said this to him: I'm not ready to die yet. I don't want to die yet. I can't let my son down. (meaning, he mustn't die since they've all been praying for 5 years. He and his dad are the only family members they have). It took Chris by surprise and just hit him really hard about this whole situation. So continuing, his dad died, right? Now, after this happened, his friend went downhill from then. He was sent to a foster home and since then, has been abused and all sorts of horrible unimaginable things happened to him. He totally lost faith in God and now he hates Him for not doing anything.
QUESTIONS CHRIS ASKED ME (that I can still remember):
1. How can you still keep faith in God when something like this happens to you?
2. Why didn't God do anything if He is so perfect and is so powerful?
3. Why do good people die from accidents and diseases while bad people die naturally (but I'm sure he does know that this doesn't happen all the time)?
4. Since God knows everything, from the day we're born, He knows the day we'll die. We're being punished by death, right? If we're suppose to live eternally with God, why did he already limit our lives with death? (in his words for this = killing us)
(I know there's more, but Anna just told me that he's in the process of explaining things to his friend so I'll update more on this later)
Chris says that the Bible contradicts itself; says he knows cause he read the Bible so many times already. I didn't get a chance to extend on this in the conversation I had with him, but I hope I get a chance to next time. He also said to me, "And don't say, 'I'm sure his dad is up there in Heaven watching over him' because that's a bunch of bull. If he was, he wouldn't let all that abuse come to his son down on earth like that where a gun is pointed at his head at gunpoint."
What he directly said just now to Anna to forward it to me: i based God off as a father, and if such a "loving father" is existent and his sons are going through pain, a real "Loving" father would do something about it before the two get hurt eternally.
Please pray for Him and his friend.
Jasmine.

He told me about a story of his friend, whom I forgot to ask for the name of him.
HERE'S THE STORY: His friend and his friend's dad are the only two FEW devoted Christians that Chris admired. His friend read the word and also lived it; as well as his dad too. All his life, he'd pray to God about his dad, asking God to keep his dad's health in order (healthy). Then one day, they found out that his dad got cancer. Bummer, right? So right when he heard this, he prayed for 5 years to God asking Him to heal his dad. So in a nutshell, his dad still died from cancer. During this, he had to go to Mexico in his dad's place because his dad was in the hospital. Chris went to go visit him everyday for his friend and one day, his friend's dad said this to him: I'm not ready to die yet. I don't want to die yet. I can't let my son down. (meaning, he mustn't die since they've all been praying for 5 years. He and his dad are the only family members they have). It took Chris by surprise and just hit him really hard about this whole situation. So continuing, his dad died, right? Now, after this happened, his friend went downhill from then. He was sent to a foster home and since then, has been abused and all sorts of horrible unimaginable things happened to him. He totally lost faith in God and now he hates Him for not doing anything.
QUESTIONS CHRIS ASKED ME (that I can still remember):
1. How can you still keep faith in God when something like this happens to you?
2. Why didn't God do anything if He is so perfect and is so powerful?
3. Why do good people die from accidents and diseases while bad people die naturally (but I'm sure he does know that this doesn't happen all the time)?
4. Since God knows everything, from the day we're born, He knows the day we'll die. We're being punished by death, right? If we're suppose to live eternally with God, why did he already limit our lives with death? (in his words for this = killing us)
(I know there's more, but Anna just told me that he's in the process of explaining things to his friend so I'll update more on this later)
Chris says that the Bible contradicts itself; says he knows cause he read the Bible so many times already. I didn't get a chance to extend on this in the conversation I had with him, but I hope I get a chance to next time. He also said to me, "And don't say, 'I'm sure his dad is up there in Heaven watching over him' because that's a bunch of bull. If he was, he wouldn't let all that abuse come to his son down on earth like that where a gun is pointed at his head at gunpoint."
What he directly said just now to Anna to forward it to me: i based God off as a father, and if such a "loving father" is existent and his sons are going through pain, a real "Loving" father would do something about it before the two get hurt eternally.
Please pray for Him and his friend.
Jasmine.

HappySlip
"Your Love" (Original Song) By Christine Gambito aka HappySlip
She was inspired by this verse:
Ephesians 3:17-19
And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
I think she's so talented.
"Christine, remember to wear your happy slip" - her mother :)

GOD IS FOOD!.. I MEAN GOOD! x)
"Jesus I plead your blood over my sins and the sins of my nation. God end abortion and send revival to America."
Alright so lots have happened these past few days.
And to my surprise, I have done a lot that I barely did before.
On Thursday, I ditched my tharts 2A class
to go to church and pray with Alice about the Tiller Trial.
I tried to write lyrics, but it was a failure.
Instead, I wrote down little phrases and such.
Alice on the other hand wrote down something really deep.
We tried to record it, but her phone caught everything;
so it took a really long time before we got to the singing part. x)
When I got home, my dad said he bought me.....
A NEW BADMINTON RACKET!!!! :D
Shocked as I was, I said thank you so many times.
That ended my day nicely.
Friday, which was yesterday,
I spent my time with a headache
counting all the chapters in each book of the Bible.
Had a tough time getting a ride to church,
but luckily my dad had free time on his hands to take me.
However, I dread riding in the car with him.
And here's why:
He told me that my mom doesn't think I'll graduate college.
What a downer, huh? Eh.
Anyways! So I finally got to church,
but Jack and I didn't even have our "work" time
as I would and have been calling it.
He and Annie fell asleep in the soaking room
so I thought that maybe Alice and I
should have our own little soaking time too
while continuing where we left off in the book of Ezekiel.
Before that, she and I prayed together about it.
This was the first time I prayed for so long, haha. I'M SERIOUS.
Words kept coming out and tears of sorrow and justice came out.
This is what I prayed about:
- George Tiller Trial
- Abortion overall
- Jack and Annie
- Our building and our neighbors
- "Heart of Wisdom" (words from God)
- New revelations, visions, and understanding of Ezekiel
- Creativeness; thinking beyond the outside of the box
The prayer was so long, I seriously thought
that we weren't gonna be able to get to Ezekiel.
Right after we finished, both Alice and I (I prayed first)
my right shoulder started hurting.
Since no one else was in the dream room,
I decided to ask Alice if her shoulder hurt.
She moved her arm a little and said no it didn't.
Then she suggested asking Johnny and Evan who were right by the comp.
Evan actually was pretty sore and his left arm hurt.
We invited him into the dream room and prayed for him.
Alice was on his left and I was on his right;
Johnny was standing around.
We prayed and his left got healed 70%,
soreness on right was down 50%.
Then we prayed again, left got healed 80%,
soreness was gone. PRAISE JESUS!
Prayed again, 90% and then 99%,
and then VIOLA, IT'S GONE! :]
We liked how Evan was so punctual on the percentage.
That tree picture in the dream room is very annointed. xP
I LOVE IT! DON'T TAKE IT DOWN! hahahah, I'm serious!
Alice asked me to choose a card from the baby box
that has verses in Chinese and so I did and I got this one:
(Alice added the verse after it too because it was so prophetic)
the Cause that this verse is talking about, for us, it was abortion.
"Commit your way to the LORD; trust in Him and He will do this; He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn, the justice of your cause like the noonday sun" - Psalm 37:5-6
Well there's also something else
that I forgot that happened on friday.
My dad bought me, in total, 4 new badminton rackets.
CRAZY, HUH?! (1 futabaya and 3 yonex's)
I'm not sure if that's something from God
because my dad has never done that before.
3 possibilities I'm thinking it could be:
1. Just because...
2. I ditched my tharts class to pray
which I would have never done before.
3. Badminton is the only thing since my childhood
that I have not given up.
Toward the end of our Bible study though
I got this, I would say prophecy about Johnny.
The interesting part is that last year, around this time,
I got a prophecy over Radical Jam that I still remember.
This year, it's only about Johnny.
I know I told him already last night, but...
I would to tell you guys too! :D
"Johnny's music will melt the hearts of nations, because it melts mine every time I hear them" - Jasmine
Well ya. That was the past two days.
And hopefully, later today, I'll be watching Monsters vs. Aliens
with a group of beautiful and wondrous people
and doing some CITY INVASION at the santa anita mall.

I understand.
I understand what Jack was talking about
on Sunday about cell phones.
I honestly hate checking my phone
every second or so; it's so annoying.
Today, I decided not to look at my phone
from around lunchtime (1 something).
When I looked at it around 5 minutes ago,
I got like 13 missed calls & 2 text msgs.
I also understand why one of my friend's boyfriend
doesn't want a cell phone.
haha, stop. seriously. it's not your life.

Confirmation
As some of you might have heard from me, this past week has been extra tiring and stressful. I stupidly registered late for spring and couldn't get all the classes I want. So the first week of Spring semester I was literally running around school trying to get classes, even if they're not classes that I'd need. In the end, I got whatever I could, but it's still not enough. So far, I only have 9 units out of 12. After I add the badminton team, I'll have 11. Yay me. Hah. Anyways, I've been asking God for more peace, patience, confidence, financial breakthrough, and just let Him take control. I got my confirmation today; along with some other things I've been thinking about too. When Jack asked the School of Disciples to come up to the front so they can prophecy over us, I asked God who I should go to first. Here's the order and what they said to me from God:
1. Aaron (God told me to go to him first):
- Something to do with the arts.
- Not necessarily painting per say.
- Writing is much deeper than the arts for me.
- My writing will be used to touch other people; nations.
2. Peter (My new friend lol):
- God told him that He wanted to tell me 3 things:
1. I have a lack of confidence. God wanted to tell me that I should be more confident in myself to do things because He is there by my side which was something I've also been asking Him about; to be by my side everyday and guide me through these tough times. I was very shocked already.
2. He'll give me more friends, not for social purposes, but to share to them God's love. He says that I'm the bridge from people to Jesus. I'll be the one to guide them to God's love and have them saved. (I forgot how he said it. x___x)
3. God said that I need to be more closer to Him in order for me to receive more of His blessings to pour onto other people. The closer I get to Him, the more peace and love I'll receive and give to others; and with that peace and love, I can impact those around me, giving them God's love. (Like I said, I forgot how he said it.)
3. Joy:
- Peace
- Get closer to God
- I'm the bridge (Like what Peter said)
- Write more; be more creative and such.
4. Tina
- Financial breakthrough: I was having some financial problems.
- Write more poems! It'll impact so many people; it'll be strong.
- Be more confident and competent (I think) in my writing.
Two more things happened, since it is almost at the end of the day.
1. I was pretty much afraid to tell my dad my schedule this semester. Earlier when I told my mom that I won't be having school on Mondays and Wednesdays, she was whatever about it, like always. Then she told my dad later on, typical, my dad came in like my usually does when something doesn't go his way. (You know Asian parents). So I explained it to him and everything. At first he was kind of in that disappointment mood, but later on it was kind of funny (to me at least). He took it better than I thought he would. Here's how the conversation went for the funny part:
My dad: So you don't have enough units right now?
Me: I only have 9 units.
My dad: So you basically haven't had enough every semester cause I remember you kept telling me that you have enough units. Did you lie to me?
Me: I did have enough units for the other semesters. I usually got like 12 or more units. It's just this semester I didn't. Plus they cut a lot of classes down because of the budget cut.
My dad: *Sigh.. thinks about it*
Me: Unless..... you wanted me to take useless classes that I don't even need.
My dad: Yeah, you should. Just so you can get enough units.
*Pause: O_O Is this my dad I'm talking to!?*
Me: That's what I tried doing already. I got what I could, but now they're closed too.
2. I have already impacted two people so far this year. It hasn't even been that long since 2009 have started. You saw this other post about Kate and now, it's my cousin. We were JUST talking like 30 minutes ago; talking about getting into Dental Hygiene program and such. She told me that I should keep my grades up and such like that. I have to be honest and say that my grades are average so far. I really am trying my best and if they don't accept, it's alright. So I said to my cousin:
Me: It's ok. God will provide for me when the time comes.
Uyen: That's good thinking. Good mentality. I need to have that mentality.
Uyen: How are you so confident? I want to be more confident. Teach me how to be more confident.
Me: Trust me. Before service today, I was lacking so much confidence.
God is a good God. I am truly in love with Him. He listens.
♥ jasy
p.s. I felt refreshed after that service and at ease. =]
p.p.s. Peter said that I gave him encouragement by this after I shared to those of you who came.

I'm so very excited to be finally challenging myself on the one thing I've decided to become better at. Whatever happens, I'll entrust my creativity in God. He has the best ideas EVER. [:

Kate says: jazz
jasmine says: yes??
Kate says: mmm. i think you're a great person
jasmine says: aw why?
Kate says: idk. i think you're the few pplz who have a POSITIVE influence on my life
jasmine says: reeeeeealllyyyyy......
jasmine says: like how?
Kate says: um. i noe how cheesy it sounds but like i want to be a better person. like not do wat i used to do... the bad stuff. keeping someone's iphone. etc.
jasmine says: awww :]
Kate says: and yeah . after i saw you... was it friday?
Kate says: ive been reading daily bible devotionals online.
- my hearts screaming inside when I saw this.
♥ jasy
p.s. I remember how this conversation came to happen. On Friday, Kate told me that she has always had doubts about God and all those questions we might have once had. There were two questions: 1. Why does God let (specifically) like 7 year old girls get raped and murdered? and 2. Why aren't there any Asians in the Bible? I answered both of her questions in a long and (to me) confusing way. I didn't know if she really understood what I was trying to say but I tried my best. I talked about faith and prayer being our weapon in the whole battle between light and dark (mainly; there were more, but Friday was a long time ago so I can barely remember it that well) - the only reason why I still remember talking about faith and prayer is because I kept repeating it to her. It's that important and that I (like most of you, maybe) probably acquired it from Jack, haha - which is a good thing. This is probably the reason why she started this conversation above. I seriously was clueless before this, haha.
p.p.s. PRAYED TO GOD FOR AT LEAST A 200 ON MY 2ND EXAM BECAUSE I WAS TRYING MY BEST TO STUDY FOR IT AND GOD GAVE ME 201! LOL GOD IS SOOOOOO FUNNY!!!!

pain, i think it's a msg from God
Okay. As Joy was driving me home, she reminded me about Justin. Remember him? Yes. Well, it was just a few minutes ago that I was reminded AGAIN by my Father to pray for Justin since I have not yet. I believe I remember Joy saying that Justin has three tumors in his legs alone when it came back; that there is a lot of pain as well, but since he's taking painkillers he doesn't feel the pain. However, just a few minutes ago, right after I remembered about Justin again, I decided to pray for him later when I go to bed. However, God wanted me to do it right there and then. He gave my left leg this pain that just made me literally say out loud, "Owww! What the..." and grab my leg to put pressure on it so it wouldn't hurt so much. I realized that it was probably God telling me to pray; didn't have to be a long prayer or anything. So I was like, "Ok ok God. I'll pray." I'm studying right now and it just made me realize/remember that there are times when you CAN spare a moment or two to pray for someone in need. So I prayed a minute prayer and suddenly, right when I finished the prayer, the sudden pain just disappeared.
I have faith that God is healing Justin right now as you read this.
God healed Sue, and He WILL heal Justin too. (Oh that rhymed, hehe).

Fueling their Desire
"Love others not by trying to become their God but by fueling their own faith in God."
Daily Prayer:
"Father, according to Your Word, those who heard the testimony of the woman at the well said, "We no longer believe just because of what you said; now we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this man really is the Savior of the world" (John 4:42). Please cause my life to impact others by making them desire to meet You for themselves and believe! O Lord, I want others to be able to boast to You about my perseverance and faith in any persecutions and trials I endure (2 Thess. 1:4). Help me to remember that others observe the way I handle trials. I want to have a faithful witness, Lord. Like Timothy's grandmother, Lois, and his mother, Eunice, help me to pass down a heritage of faith (2 Tim. 1:5).
To all the people doing Project Elisha and anyone else who loves to share God's goodness.

Like Timothy's grandmother, Lois, and his mother, Eunice, help me to pass down a heritage of faith (2 Tim. 1:5).
To all the people doing Project Elisha and anyone else who loves to share God's goodness.

Broken Walls
For Christmas, Kate gave me this Year round prayer book from Costco; probably. Well, today was the first day of school for winter intercession. I got to finally hang out with our own Jennifer for the first time since she started PCC. We talked a lot today about certain issues - not going to say though. Now that I'm home though, I decided to open up the book Kate gave me; open it up randomly, like choosing a card from a deck of 50 when it's laid out in front of you. There was one thing that got my attention and that was the date of it which is something personal to me so I won't talk about that. However, as I read on, I totally felt that this was pointing straight at what Jen and I talked about - maybe.
"The Freedom of Christ is worth the surrender of absolutely anything. Relief, not remorse, waits the repentant."
The Daily Prayer:
"Father, Your Word says that a person who lacks self-control is like a city whose walls are broken down (Prov. 25:28). Sometimes I feel like there is so much rubble, I can't rebuild the wall (Neh. 4:10). But Your Word claims that You are the Repairer of Broken Walls, and the Restorer of Streets with Dwellings (Isa. 58:12). Please introduce Yourself to me by these wonderful names and rebuild the rubble in my life. I confess to You that I am overwhelmed by the task ahead, I am thankful that You have authority over all things. Heaven is Your throne; earth is Your footstool (Matt. 5:35). Therefore, anything over my head is under Your feet!"
This is NOT A COINCIDENCE.

Happy New Years to all and to all a good year.
I saw Allan yesterday night at Tan Cang Newport with our childhood friend, Helen. We haven't seen her since we graduated. It was amazing. It was funny though. I was still in the car and I saw him, but I wasn't sure if it was him or not until I got out. I was going to say, "Allan?" but he beat me to it and said, "Jasmine?!" and I like literally ran to him and hugged him cause I have not literally seen him since October. It was so cool getting to see them there, out of all places around this area, and catching up on old times. Allan's family and Helen's family got to sit near each other, but I didn't. It was quite a bummer. However, we got to sit near the kitchen area so our food came pretty fast after we sat down. Plus, the person I go there to see was mostly in there this time around and he was so adorable. Oh, gosh I miss those two. Forgot to ask Helen for her number, but that's okay - facebook.

p.s. I kind of feel sad, which is not a healthy feeling for the first feeling of the year. Also, I don't actually feel any different than last year, haha.
