Yesterday, I received the result of my application to the International Graduate Program (IGP) of Keio University. My application was accepted! Allow me to narrate my journey on how I applied for the program. I first heard about Keio University through an officemate. He was also a scholar way back 2011. It was during one …
Last August, after our DGroup (Discipleship Group) meeting at CCF, a missionary gave a pitch for her short term mission to Jordan.

Last Sunday, after attending church service at CCF, I went and stayed at Starbucks Tiendesitas. The guy beside me was looking for an outlet when he noticed that his plug isn’t compatible with the PH type (he was using European type).
