Thank You

I just want to take this time and thank all the 2009-2010 StuCo members for the works that we shared together. We went through some challenges but we have gain more knowledge and understanding of working together. You guys have made this school year for me a successful and fruitful for me. I have learned a lot from you guys and at the same time, I have learned more about leadership through this StuCo presidential position than learning inside the class. I will surely miss working with you guys. We say that we will see each other on campus, but that is not so intimate like how we worked together as a team under StuCo. This academic year was really challenging to us, the StuCo, because there were lot of things that we were doing and the deadline on them were very crunching to one after another. We ratified the Bylaw and that was the most challenging in our work and we made it. Let's just pray that it will be the final ratification and be approved.

I also want to take this time and thank all the staff and faculty for their prayers and support to our team (StuCo). If you are a staff and reading this one, i want to make a report and say that the StuCo members that i was working with did their best and they worked really hard with me to make things happen. We just wished that there were more time but times are very limited. I have seen one or two members in StuCo sacrificing by skipping one of their class to make things done. It was planned by StuCo for this person to skip class, but it was his/her own choice to skip and make things happen. I can say that that is heart. They have taught me a lot, especially that one person who took one absent to make things done to make sure that people will get what they need and what StuCo promised them.

I also want to thank God about this past voting for the upcoming StuCo members. The team that are going to work this coming school year are really good team. I would say that they will make a good government. I want us to remember them in our prayer.

Once again, thank you very much and let us just be happy of what God is doing in our lives.

Which one came first?

On the last Tuesday Chapel, December 1 2009, Rob asked a question that has been a question for decades and some people still get it wrong, including the Christians. But here is my observation and interpretation of the situation... Oh, and the question is this: "Which one came first...Chicken or the Egg?" For my observation, and based on what I study from the Bible, I would say that Chicken came first. The reason for this is very clear and we can also just use our common sense to answer this question if we carefully think about it. But let me answer it with my common sense before I give my answer based on my studying from the Bible. Common Sense Answer: if the egg came first, it will surely die. before it even crack open. The reason for this is because the egg needs some heat to keep itself warm so it can be fully develop. At the same time, even if the chick survive from that, it would not be able to survive on the second stage of its life because it does not know how to hunt their food or maybe can be killed by other creatures because it does not know how to protect itself yet, especially when it have not develop its wings to fly. But if the Chicken came first, it can actually conceive the egg and keep it warm. After the egg become chick, then the chicken will train the small one to hunt for its food and at the same time, protecting it from other creatures until it's fully grown. OK. Now, that is a Common Sense Answer. Let me bring our mind to the Bible now. Bible Answer: In the beginning, man and woman were created....not baby. In later days, God created plants and trees and said that they will bear fruits of its kind.... not fruit to become tree. Continuing with creation, God created beasts of the land. Baby lions are not beast yet. It will be beast if they are big and vicious already. All the creations happened in seven days....and we know that baby lion cannot develop to become a beast within seven days. I want to say that these are not speculations, but because I know that some people would disagree with me, I will say that you can say that I'm just speculating. Chicken came first.
