Survey from Kelley

WHAT TIME TO YOU GET UP? 6:30-7:00

IF YOU COULD EAT LUNCH WITH ONE FAMOUS PERSON, WHO WOULD IT BE? I really don't know..

GOLD OR SILVER? White Gold.

Engagement Ring

YOUR FAVORITE TV SHOW? I didn't grow up in America so I have just recently seen some oldies like The Three Stooges and Andy Griffith. My sisters and I were into Korean dramas :) Jason thinks I'm crazy to enjoy a show that has subtitles on it :)

WHAT DO YOU HAVE FOR BREAKFAST? I usually have scrambled eggs and coffee but when I have a certain craving, I would make a traditional Pilipino breakfast, an Aussie brekkie (Australian for breakfast) or Southern breakfast.

CAN YOU TOUCH YOUR NOSE WITH YOUR TONGUE? Nope! Not happening!

WHAT INSPIRES YOU? Missionaries. Even though we are one, there are so many missionaries that I look up to and many who help me to strive to be better.

WHAT IS YOUR MIDDLE NAME? I don't have one! Jason is thinking of creating one for me since Hannah Young is so common. I really liked the name Isabel once, but a certain person (Bro. Heath) made fun of it and kept saying "Hannah is a bell." So, I don't think I'll pick that one :)

BEACH, CITY, OR COUNTRY? The beach! I love the water, it was such a huge part of my life growing up that when I smell the sea, it goes right to my soul!


Waikiki Beach, Hawaii



FAVORITE ICE CREAM? That's a hard one as I love icecream so.... Bluebell Pistachio Almond (which I just bought today because it was on sale at Sav-Way), Ben & Jerry's Half-Baked, Baskin & Robbins Choc-Chip Cookie Dough, Connosseuir Cookies & Cream. I could keep going but I don't want to sound like a total gluton! :)


BUTTER, PLAIN, OR SALTED POPCORN? Butter.

FAVORITE CAR? Hmmm.. my taste on cars have definitely changed! If you asked me 10 years ago I would have said a Candy Pink 2002 Nissan Silvia 200SX (and mention all the modifications I would make) but now I love the Honda Odyssey. :)



FAVORITE SANDWICH FILLING? Turkey or Roast Beef :)

WHAT CHARACTERISTIC DO YOU DESPISE? Hyprocrisy and Back-stabbing.

Monday 15 April 2013

A beautiful Monday!


Most people don't like Mondays. Maybe because they have to go back to work, school, in other words 'reality'! I must confess that when I was in school, Monday was definitely not my favorite day of the week. Since I've stayed home with my children, I have come to love Mondays. It's the beginning of everyday life. It's a new start of weekly duties, another chance to change, another opportunity to improve from the week before.

Sometimes I become overwhelmed and discouraged when my daily routine doesn't work out but sometimes I know I just need to let go and let God guide the day. Today, the kids and I have enjoyed devotions, school, chores, playing inside and outside. Just watching them today reminds me how much of a blessing they are. I really do enjoy the normal events of life.

One of my favourite chores--Laundry! My least favourite chore--Dishwashing, but I can't complain I have a very nice view from my sink! Gardening!! A chance to enjoy the day outside.




Enjoy your Mondays!
