自分で引っ越しする日を決めるのは結構大変です。やっぱりみんな友達にちゃんとさよなら言ったりしないと行けないって事考えてたらひにちをのばしてっちゃう。でも実際にはまた今年アメリカへ戻ってくるみたい。
It's actually pretty hard to decide the date of when I'm moving. Having to say goodbye to all your friends and things like that make it hard and makes me want to move the date back. But it looks like I'll end up back in the USA by the end of this year.


5月17日。本当は29日にする事にしてたんだけど、いろいろあって、早くなりました。なんで29日がいいの?って実は結構くだらない理由です・・
May 17th. Originally, it was the 29th, but a lot of things happened, so it's sooner. Why the 29th? Well it was a pretty pathetic reason...

9日卒様式、19日誕生日、29日日本って考えてました。そのほうが覚えやすいから。ね?結構くだらないでしょ? 今年初めて日本で祝います。なんか変な感じ・・
9th is graduation, 19th is my birthday, 29th would have been Japan... that was my thought process because it would have been easier to remember. See? Pretty ridiculous. This year will be my first time celebrating my birthday in Japan. It's a weird feeling.

早く行く理由は何個かあります。Hillsongのconferenceが21−23日にあります。行くのが前から夢でした。ぴかぴか(新しい)後は、この方が香港へ行く日がもっと早くなるから。その方がもっと手伝えるし、アメリカにいてもどうせいなんにもしないと思うし・・
There are a lot of reasons why I am going sooner. The Hillsong conference is the from the 21st to the 23rd. It's always been a dream of mine to go. Also, this would make my departure for Hong Kong to be sooner. This way, I can help out as much as I can, and being here in the US, I probably wouldn't do anything anyways...

行き帰りのきっぷの方が片道より$5だけ違うらしいです。なんかそれ変。それに3ヶ月以上どっかへ行くときっぷが高くなるらしい・・でも、アメリカにまた11月ぐらいにちょっとだけ行きます。それから12月にまた日本へ戻ります。こんなに飛行機に乗ってあっちこちのは初めて。って言うか2年前だったら全然ありえなかった(結構ひどく飛行機の中でよってました)でも本当に神様のおかげで大丈夫になりました!
The difference between a roundtrip ticket and a one way ticket is $5. That's odd. Plus, if you go somewhere for longer than 3 months, the price of the ticket goes up. But I think I'm going to the US in November for a little bit. Then go back to Japan in December. I've never been on an airplane so frequently in my life! I wouldn't have imagined doing that 2 years ago. (I used to get really airsick) But thanks to God, I'm totally fine now!

Can you tell that I wrote this first in Japanese? I didn't think I'd be able to do it!
最初に日本で書いたのきずいた?できるのは思わなかった!

so let's see how good I am at blogging. I used to do it all the time, but it was too much work so I stopped... but I'm going to give it another shot! I am happy that I got there still was a short blog name left for me to use :-)
ブログ書くの挑戦してみます。前よくやってたんだけど、めんどくさくてやめちゃった・・でも、もう一回出直ししてみる!ブログの名前が短いのがまだ残っててよかった〜

I'm going to try blogging in both English and Japanese. We'll see how that'll go. Maybe I'll add in Cantonese later too. haha. But sorry if my Japanese isn't as good as my English!
英語と日本語でブログやってみます。どうなるかな・・後で広東語も書いたりして。w私の日本語があんまりよくなかったらごめんね!

God is amazing. Seriously. I can't deny His existence in my life and He shows that to me everyday. He opens doors, He gives me opportunities. He's given me peace, joy. Who would have thought that I would be in Hong Kong helping out at Jesus Lifehouse- Hong Kong? Yeah. Well. God broke me down and is now building me back up. In a way, I was putting God in a box, thinking I can do this this this for Him because I thought I was able to do them. Yeah, I might be able, but with God's strength, I can do more than I can imagine. Wow.
神様は素晴らしい!マジで。私には神様の存在がいないって言えない、毎日私に現してくださってるから。ドアを開けてくれたり、いろんな経験を私にくださってる。私に平安と喜びを与えてくれた。JLH−香港で手伝わせてもらうとは全然思わなかった。そう。神様は私を打ち砕いて、また立て直してくれてる。なんか私が神様を箱に入れた感じがする・・だって自分が神様の為に何をできるか自分で判断してたから。まぁ、できるかもしれないけど、でも神様が私に与えてくれる力では自分が想像できる意外の物を私にできる。すごい。

Well. Here's my first entry!
で、これが私の最初のエントリーです!
