Let Love Lead The Way

"Let Love Lead The Way"

What makes this world go round
Will the answer let her down
She is so sweet and young
And her life has just begun
What does her future hold that's the story left unknown
Will she make it through her days, let our love lead the way
Part of me laughs (ooooh)
Part of me cries
Part of me wants to question why (question why)
What good is their joy
And why is there pain (ooh)
Why is there sunshine and the rain
One day you're here
Next you are gone

No matter what we must go on
Just keep the faith
And let love lead the way
Everthing will work out fine
If you let love, love lead the way
Sitting there all alone
In the window of her room
Watching the world go by
Brings tears to her eyes
All she sees is hurt and pain, she wants to break the chain
She'll keep pressing everyday and she'll find her own sweet way
Part of me laughs (me laughs)
Part of me cries (I cry)
Part of me wants to question why (wants to question why)

One day you're here (you're here)
Next you are gone (you're gone)
No matter what we must go on (I will go on)
Just keep the faith (keep your faith)
And let love lead the way (I know, I know, I know, ooh whoa)
You can be all that and still can be who you are
You gotta know for sure that it isn't make believe
You may feel weak but you are strong
Don't you give up if
If you keep holding on, you'll never be wrong
Just close your eyes cause it lies deep in your heart, yeah
Part of me laughs
Part of me cries (I cry)
Part of me wants to question why (question)
Why is thee pain
Why is there sunshine then the rain

One day you're here (you're here)
Next you are gone (you're gone)
No matter what we must go on (I will)
Just keep the faith
And let love lead the way (lead the way)
Everthing will work out fine
If you let love, love lead the way
Love lead the way

LEGO League Championship, NYC

I had a relaxing Saturday in NYC, finally free of works! I have been working all day from Monday through Friday, time to give myself a treat - ran away from the busy NYC and went to the Riverbank State Park at 145th Street, Manhattan.

I still remember my first LEGO from my dad at the young age, knowing nothing about robotics but to build my own sweet home using the LEGO.

By seeing all the genius kids in the stadium, how cute and smart they are. I know I am totally outdated and OLD.

Transforming a simple LEGO to a programmed robotic LEGO and complete all the required tests are just not what I thought of when I were young.

Thumbs up for the technology, coach, and students! You all are brilliant!

A Big Thanks to all the parents, supporters, sponsors, and organizers! They are so supportive and always give their best to the children without asking anything in return.

"Brand Name" Yogurt

Something special I found in Whole Food Store - my name appeared as the brand name for the dairy product - yogurt!

Good for Health! :)

Never thought of people using the name of Rachel as their products' brand name. However, I will reserve the name for my bridal and event management company in the near future!

A New Life in New York

Leaving my friends at a place called Des Moines where I stayed for the last two and a half years.
所谓天下无不散之延席

Moving my belongings from Des Moines to New York was a tiresome task. Pack and Unpack are troublesome and tiring. Fortunately, I have my dearest boyfriend, kor kor and di di there to pack 90% of all my belongings into 6 big luggages. I am so glad that they are willing to bring an extra piece of luggage each, just to move all my stuffs to NY.
Thank you and I truly appreciate their kindness.

To start my new life here in NY isn't too hard. I am so lucky to have my uncle and his family here to take care of me. Pressure after school greatly reduced with their kind offer (to stay at their place). It is not easy to stay oversea alone without help from friends. Networking and maintaining a good relationship with others are the key factors to survive in US, especially during job hunting.

I have recently started my full-time job at a fashion production company called Sketch Studio Trading, Inc. My job is to communicate with my clients (fashion designers, specialize in night gown designing) and the fashion manufacturers in China. Acting like an agent to both parties: receiving the fashion drafts from clients, add in some beading designs for the drafts received, sending instructions to Chinese manufacturers in China, receive purchase orders from clients, fabric orderings, garments inspection, cost calculations, etc.

Sounds interesting, however, I am not as busy as the rest of the people in the office. [90% due to the not functioning computer] Hopefully there are more for me to learn on the coming days. Although this is not something related to my major, I am satisfied with the job. This is what I dream of since young (not having chance to further studies in fashion designing). I love seeing and working with fashion field, especially nice night gowns. I could now learn more about this field, earning hands-on experience, and knowing more in details and with a deeper understanding on this field.

Lastly, another excitement --- My company is willing to apply H-1 Visa for me!!! So that I can stay in the US for a longer period while gaining valuable experience. Hopefully everything (every application process) goes smoothly and I will get the H-1 Visa.

All the best to Rachel!
