Introduction

I love to read and play board games. I enjoy hanging out in small groups, spending time with people one on one, and just having time on my own.

I am currently a student, so most of my life is studying with a few breaks. I am trying to start a bible study group on my campus, and with the Holy Spirits help I hope to grow in my relationship with Jesus and help others to come to know Him more. I am trying to fast from TV/Movies for the semester. So, unless it is for a class, I am going to (with the power of the Holy Spirit) say no to this form of decompression. I noticed how much my spiritual life declined while in school and watching hours of television a day...

I am currently studying for my undergrad in University. I am an anthropology and Education major. Teaching gives my life a sense of purpose as I can clearly see the impact I have on others.

I entered school a bit late because I had spend some time in bible school and on the mission field. I was in South East Asia for two years, and I want to spend a significant part of my life living abroad, either in mission work, or working for an NGO, or teaching at an International school. However, before I do that, I am considering getting a masters in Linguistics.

I joined this site because I'd rather date someone halfway across the world and interested in missions than someone who does not share my same dreams or convictions.

For the purpose of this site, I am looking for friendships that could blossom into something more. I'd be kinda weirded out if I had a boyfriend within the first month of talking. Even more weirded out if I was proposed to within the first six months of knowing each other. That is NOT what I am looking for. So, to reiterate, I here for 'friends with the potential for more'. Which means no intensive personal talks the first time I meet you, but rather an imitation of the gradual getting-to-know each other process in the 'real' world. It also means that unless explicitly stated, I expect each of us to be talking to other people. However, for the purpose of not leading each other on, I'd also hope that within the first month/month and a half, if we see that the other person would just be a friend, we should tell them. That allows the other person to make the decision to continue the friendship, or direct their energies elsewhere.

Please, do not attempt to contact me if you are eight or more years older or younger than I am.

Essays

What I'd like to do on a first date...

Well, the ideal first date is an activity which could last 20 minutes or two hours. So not dinner, but maybe lunch or a snack somewhere.

That being said, if I actually met someone in person through this site, it would probably be after talking for quite some time. In that case, I'm sure we'd have similar interests and activities which we enjoy, and we'd do one of those.

To me, being an Adventist means...

Having the responsibility and privilege to be an emissary for Christ, knowing that His strength is being made perfect in my weakness. It means being honest with God about who I am, and a constant call for surrender.

In five years, I see myself

In five years I will have finished my undergrad in Education and Anthropology, and (hopefully) be working on a masters in Linguistics.

My favorite Bible passage is...

"For the mountains may depart
and the hills be removed,
but my steadfast love shall not depart from you,
and my covenant of peace shall not be removed,”
says the Lord, who has compassion on you.
- Isaiah 54:10

It reminds me that Jesus is my first love, and the bible is the ultimate love letter. :D

One final thing I'd like to mention...

My relationship history is sparse. I live in a small Canadian town with few Adventists, and I don't want to be unequally yoked. So, I haven't really 'entered the dating game.' Even before I joined the church in High School I didn't date because all my siblings married or got engaged to their high school sweethearts.

This means I've taken dating pretty seriously. I wouldn't date someone who I couldn't see myself ending up with. That being said, of the few past relationships I've had, I learned that just because I wouldn't date someone I wouldn't marry, it doesn't mean that having a boyfriend is akin to having a fiancee. I've learned not to move to fast, and to reign my emotions in.
