Magnetic North – Summertime

by Vy on 2 July 2010

I just got Magnetic North and Taiyo Na‘s new album Home:Word in the mail yesterday and I absolutely love love loooooove it.

Normally, when I think of hip-hop, “cute” isn’t exactly something that comes to mind, but their music video for Summertime just melted my heart.

getting what I ask for

by Vy on 1 July 2010

A lot of times, I’m afraid of asking God for stuff because I know I’ll get exactly what I ask for.

In this case, I asked for humility and God took away my source of pride by making me next to useless at my internship.  I’m forced to depend on other people to teach me the things I need to know.

I actually have to ask for help.

Thankfully, there are a lot of people there who are more than willing to provide some guidance to a hot-headed kid like me.

asian content

by Vy on 27 June 2010

I accidentally ended up binging on Asian internet content today.

First, it was Michelle Phan’s YouTube channel.

From Michelle’s YouTube channel, I was led to the 1040 movie page (also, check out their YouTube channel).

The 1040 blog had a link to an article in the Christian Post about 1040 and Jaeson Ma.

Jaeson Ma and MC Jin were in the article, so I went to go see what they were all about.

In the midst of getting all jazzed up over Asian hip-hop artists, Magnetic North came to mind, so I went to their website to see if they had done anything new lately (which they have–they just released a new album this month).

Oh, and I pre-ordered the 1040 DVD.  I have literally watched every video on their YouTube channel, and I am super excited about seeing the entire feature film come October.  God is doing something big over in Asia, and I can’t wait to see more of it unfold.

I recently subscribed to the TED RSS feed, and I came across this:

Developmental disorders in children are typically diagnosed by observing behavior, but Aditi Shankardass knew that we should be looking directly at their brains. She explains how a remarkable EEG device has revealed mistaken diagnoses and transformed children’s lives.

This video was just so exciting to me.  THIS is what modern medicine is capable of:  Freeing children to engage the world.

on political alignment

by Vy on 23 June 2010

I like to think I fall in the middle on the political spectrum, but I’ve recently started listening to NPR whenever I’m driving to and from work.

Now I can’t help being think that I’m a disgusting, heavily biased, liberal douchebag.
