When you look at this picture, what do you see? I like to think I look like a mini justice who’s tough on crime! Or a very smart law student… I know this picture gives off the impression of self-confidence, assurance, and pride. As if this person knows what they’re doing and where they’re heading!…
My Personal Feelings on Infertility In a previous post, I shared about how my husband and I have been dealing with infertility for over 2 years. Based off of our health history, there was nothing to suggest there would be difficulty conceiving. Initially, I thought we would definitely conceive in the first 6 months. Honestly, there…
If you’re struggling with infertility, God’s timing might not make a whole lot of sense. You think, wasn’t your body built to make a baby? Isn’t this part of your role as a woman to give birth? On average, shouldn’t it only take 6 months to get pregnant?! Today, I want to explore what God…

Let’s Make a Baby! When I first started thinking about getting my Ph.D., I realized that the timeframe would coincide with my biological clock. I was 29 at the time, but I wouldn’t start the program for another year. Then, it would take me at least four years. By the time I graduated, I would…
As many of you know, Crazy Rich Asians recently came out in theater. Part of the reason why this movie is such a big deal is because this is the first major film with a full Asian cast since Joy Luck Club! I was a bit skeptical about the movie at first, but overall, I…
When I first started blogging and Instagram it was partly because I was pseudo-unemployed. I thought maybe blogging could lead to some income (that hasn’t happened yet!). Also, I sensed God was telling me to take a risk and put myself out there, try something new, even if it doesn’t get results. Last week, I…
