"Dating" in the 40s

 I can profess that "dating" is easier in 20s and 30s than in 40s. As a 41 year old female, I've become less motivated to desire a family and happier to remain single for the entirety of my life. That's all I have to say about this subject. 

On another note, I'm befuddled by my study habits lately. When I was a Political Science student at UC Berkeley, I was able to focus, concentrate, and spit out papers (albeit crappy ones). Now at 41 years old, I find myself getting headaches frequently, brain fog, and bouts of forgetfulness. I want to blame the chin problem that's been ongoing. It's just so disappointing that I can't get my grades up in the nursing classes that I'm currently taking. 

Since I've been having chin problems caused by the chin implant augmentation procedure, I should technically qualify for medical disability. But I'm not in such much discomfort that I can't work and I should be able to work and continue with nursing school. I'm just really worried about my grades in this semester's nursing classes, Ob and Pediatrics. Back at Columbia, I did decent and in fact, those classes were on the "easy" side, just a bunch of memorization. This time, though, it's really a struggle to keep my grade up in Ob lecture. I pray that I pass that class this semester.

"Banksy Doesn't Have Loans"

I had been at Columbia University for 5 months, achieving a 3.6 gpa in the summer and going through the 2nd semester in Fall. By October, I had received Bs in both the lecture and clinical components of the psychiatry rotation and moved onto the pediatric rotation. With the 2nd exam in pathophysiology coming up, I had the pressures of managing both the pediatric rotation, a research class, and the pathophysiology class.  I had met my 2nd cousin through my dad's side Annie Dayoun Kang, who is now an attorney in Seoul, South Korea, and her mom. They had just moved from Long Island to Manhattan.  As far as church was concerned, I tried Emmanuel Presbyterian Church near the 116th subway exit and met Jane Sueyon Moon's college bestie/roommate Tracey Kim (Tae). There, I ran into Janice Chan's older sister Jamie Chan again and some other Asian/Korean Ivy League alumni.  After the 2nd Sunday at Emmanuel Presbyterian Church, where the father of a Grey's Anatomy character Sarah D...

My brother got promoted, and a tale of Banker's wife - both Esther Choi (Berg) and Jamie Chan

 My brother is a San Diego police officer sergeant. Srgt.  I screenshot a photo of Jamie Chan. I saw her at Emmanuel church in NYC. Remember, I explained my story over Esther Choi and her tantrum over what I presume to be her making a big deal of churches, hers versus mine. Well, just two Sundays prior, Jamie Chan appeared to have gotten angry and directed her anger at me after how the guy named Kane Kim acted or reacted or whatever he did. I swear he had an unusual gesture, but I wasn't new to that kind of thing since Andrew Woo and David Sihyo Kim both had clearly shown their intentions. Sometimes, guys can be impulsive though. Sure, Jamie is the daughter of a former heart surgeon in Fresno, but she's also Janice Chan's sister. I had no clue as to who the guy was but I found out with some research... another law student. I have to mention that what I saw from Jamie Chan and Esther Choi was not normal... they were so crazed and bizarre...outlandish, out of this world. ... ...

Finding a church and Grandma's earthly life both in God's plans and control

I haven't found a church that I like since being back at home, which is Fresno. During four years of college, I had a church that I went to weekly. In the year 2010-2011, I was able to fellowship with fellow Christians through Valley of Grace in Fresno, which is the English Ministry affiliate of the Korean Presbyterian church. One of the members was Jane S. Moon, who I mentioned in a previous post as introducing me to her college roommate Tracey Kim. Through that connection, I was able to attend Emmanuel Presbyterian Church a few times while a student at Columbia Nursing. Since then, I haven't felt the inclusion I had before, and it's honestly been really hard living life without a church that I connect with. In addition to partaking in worshipping God, church allows members to fellowship with each other. I don't know whether I need to wait to relocate (once I obtain my BSN degree in Fresno) or to work harder in finding a church in Fresno. I think I've moved on past...
