a glimpse of my brain...

i like to do brainstorming to straighten out what this chaotic thoughts, ideas and feelings in my brain from time to time. most of the time, this method of sorting out doesn't give me the answer that i've been dying to have, but that doesn't concern me at all. through the process, my feelings and thoughts are forcefully gauged out from the little universe of my own brain. on the paper, everything comes out visually clear that what the whole dynamics of my thoughts are. i couldn't even finish the whole thing today, but realize that there are many directions that i can take at this point. sometimes in life, it is important to be astray, facing thousands of arrows sticking and pointing out every directions for you to discover yourself, i believe...

God grew tired of us

this inspirational film documents refugees fled from the horrible attack in Sudan civil war between north and south from 1983 to 2005. the Sudan government at that time had decided to kill off any men from the infant to the elder in the southern part of Sudan due to the religious and cultural differences.those children, especially the boys are named "the lost boys (girls)" after the war tearing them apart from their own mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, and any related family.　the whole point of this film　roughly shows how "the lost boys" escaped from the genocide, walked miles and miles to reach the refugee camp in Kenya, where they were situated over decades, and a few of them grabbed an opportunity to come to America. The story does not just end there, or rather starts from there. through their experiences, struggles and confusion after the first day of landing their feet in America bring us the true sense of meaning to the purpose of life. it's inspirational, and a great reminder to seek for what is each of our purpose on this earth as a human being.

A little warm up

it's been a long time since the last time i updated my blog... i just can't believe how fast the time goes by. Thanksgiving is around the corner. thanks to God, the reason why i was busy was to have a chance to help my friends and family. i just love when they feel loved by what i can offer. when they feel loved, i feel more loved! don't you agree that's the spirit of volunteering? "love" only cares for joyful giving!

going back to fashion, i felt rusty, but drew the girl with a 90's inspired jacket, of course with shoulder pads! the jacket actually exists in my closet. (it's all about oversized 90's jacket these days.) one of my friends bought it for me from a thrift store. ♥ i let the girl wear it this time. i gotta buckle down to update my blog about more sketches, sewing projects and volunteer experience.
