I would like to proclaim to the world that Joelle Cheng is the most selfless, loving person in the world and that I appreciate her SO SO much. I didn’t know where else to put it publicly (I don’t like making facebook statuses), so I am posting on tumblr for all to see. And Joelle, I know you will probably never see this unless you somehow know my tumblr or someone shows you, but Imma still post anyway!
Let me elaborate:
She spent over 5 hours from 4:30-10:00 pm helping me clean my room and she did my laundry with me. Note: this was no ordinary clean up/laundry day. Because my room was infested with bed bugs (floormate transferred it to our room…), we got our room treated today, but afterward, we had to wash all of our clothes. When I came back, our entire room was covered in debris and all of my & my roommate’s things (clothes, shoes, stuffed animals, suitcases, boxes, etc.) were mixed together in a huge pile. So, I had to sort through all of those things, vacuum the floor, move our beds/desks back into position, and wash all of my clothes.
But that’s not the point of this post. My point is that Joelle selflessly helped me with all of it: she helped sort/wash/fold my multiple loads of clothes, picked up things while I vacuumed, moved around furniture, made my bed, etc. She never complained or hesitated to help, and I didn’t even ask her to do most of the things that she did for me. She gave up 5+ hours of her day, during dead week while studying for finals, to help me with all of my things. That is sacrificial love right there. I don’t think I know anyone else other than my mom who would that that for me so willingly. And I’m seriously so in awe that God has provided me with such a beautiful, loving friend in my life. She reflects Christ’s image so well and I am sooo blessed to have her as a sister. Jesus, thank you so much for bringing her into my life. :)
Joelle better have the most loving, appreciative husband in the future because she is such a wonderful daughter of Christ. To any guy out there, you would be so, so lucky to even have her as a friend, let alone girlfriend. I will personally screen the people who like her to make sure she gets the best hehehe.
Okay, this is so long and I could write so much more but I will stop now. Point is, I LOVE YOU JOELLE CHENG, YOU ARE THE BEST FRIEND EVER <3

“Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.”
- Romans 12:12
God, You have been testing me sooo much in my patience these last few weeks. Bed bugs, broken computer, sickness, and fires right by my family’s house? And all of that right before finals? It’s been hard. But I know that You will provide. I know that You are faithful. And I know that You are trying to teach me something through all of this. Please help me be patient with Your plan through all of this with Your joy, hope, and strength. I trust you!
