| At what point in your life did you finally find yourself accepting who you were?I should totally be studying for my last exam. Or at least packing up to go home for this week (to an empty home).
Probably when I converted to seeking truth. After I noticed God's wonderful grace, I saw that I was made for God. I went through so many fashion changes throughout my high school career that my sisters noticed the "identity crisis" I was going through. They were teasing and not being serious about that statement; though, they knew that teenagers experience a time of developing their identity.
Anyway... I finally accepted who I was when I accepted Christ in my life because "the Lord sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart." (1 Samuel 16:7) I didn't have to act like what others wanted me to be because God knows who I really am.

| What's your idea of the perfect date?First of all, a memorable asking me out to the perfect date! It would be perfect if I am so in love with the guy and he is, too. He'd be confident and ask me with a grin! And I want it all pre-planned in a simple manner by him.
I guess this question is not asking about a first date... so this could be a date that is happening within a long-term, good relationship... There's going to be a lot of spending time together and doing something... maybe movie watching at a nice place and discussing it afterward with a coffee/tea/dinner/meal. I prefer the day to be a cool to a cold day. HE WOULD THEN BUST OUT A SILVER, CROSS NECKLACE because that's the gift I want from a soon-to-be-husband. It'd be a casual outing... with NO ONE ELSE. lol. No phone conversations, just a day to ourselves... then he'd drop me off at home and give me something else to end the night... I donno, chocolates? Flowers? Something thoughtful. Maybe a letter.
Yeah... I guess that'd be a perfect date.

| What physical scars do you have and what are they from?I always wanted to do these since I saw them on Terrance's Xanga!
I have a lot on my legs. I have stretch marks on my legs, they look really funky. I don't think they're like normal stretch marks; I have white indentations on my thighs. I also have a brown spot from my cousin (or was it my brother?) who accidentally dropped a lighter on my thigh. The metal part was still very hot. I have scars on both of my knees from falling off of my bike numerous times when I was in elementary school. I have one under my nose, it's getting smaller/disappearing. I was giving my cousin a piggy back ride (he is only a year younger than me) when I was in Korea in elementary school and I tripped and slid on my face on the bumpy unpaved road. I think that's all...

| Taken from my lecture: Beauty = averageness | | |
| Is beauty obtained or inherited?
Well, you can take this in so many ways. What kind of beauty are we talking about?
Inner beauty... I think this is definitely inherited AND obtained. Because God created us, we must be beautiful to begin with. Though, our flesh and sin make us gross and disgusting, it makes us, in a way, ugly. Once we receive redemption, salvation, His love, He makes us pure, beautiful in the inside.
Outer beauty... it can definitely be obtained but also inherited. God created man from dirt; ruddy, hard, masculine, tough. God created woman out of man. I'm sure Eve was pleasing to the eye. She was Adam's helper and wife; perfect before sin came into the world. If you have the money, you got the tools to restructure your whole body. Your parents have genes that were passed on to you, genes to create your body. Well, this paragraph is a given and I'm sure you know what I'm talking about.
Glorifying God and having a relationship with Him creates a better sense of what's going on around you. One begins to understand God's commands, promises, and other words; one would obey God and eventually become pure to glorify the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. This creates an amazing inner beauty that will show on the outside.
