^…Realizing that love is still the most powerful and prominent theme of our stories. (Faculty shared stories in which they helped students succeed, mostly academically and professionally.

Everyone had to vote on their favorite stories, and the stories about love far surpassed all the other stories)

…doting on JJ our family maltipoo

…having a late Lunar New Year’s Dinner

… having a really fun and creatively-thought up Live-Action avatar watch party !

…running 3 miles again for the first time in a while !

… rediscovering again and again the joys of reading at a coffee shop in the morning before work (ft. a matcha latte and my Orthodox Study Bible)

… soaking up sunny days in San Francisco, ft. the Pacific Ocean in the distance

… visiting a favorite cafe of mine in San Francisco and having a friend treat me to lunch (ft. a Chinese book I am attempting to go through to review my Chinese for an upcoming trip to Taiwan)
