Pak & Yau's Wedding

Last weekend, I was the matron of honor for Yvonne and Andrew's wedding. She looks so beautiful.. and Andrew, y'know... a guy in a tux. Her dress is a form fitting ivory lace with a small train, perfectly fitting with the Arizona Inn as the backdrop. It was fun to catch up with old friends, and it's wonderful to see them finally married and so happy! Here are some pictures that we took.

Long Time No Blog

It's been a while, but we've been busy. Well, mainly me. I was on night float then medicine senior for 2 weeks; therefore, I was very tired when I got home most days.
A few Christian faculty in the hospital are actively mentoring Christian residents in the program now, and it's such a refreshing experience. We get together for dinner once a month, and I'm feeling quite supported. It's not as lonely out there, knowing that there are people who feel the same way about certain things as I do.
Job offers are coming in. I think Quoc and I have pretty much decided that I will work in Vancouver, WA, which means we will have to move across the river some time next year. The hospital put together a recruiting dinner last week, and I was pleasantly surprised to hear about so many different job opportunities around the area! I got a package today and it looks really promising. Still have a few more recruiting dinners to go in the next few weeks. We will pray and see. It's certainly uplifting to see an ending to residency in sight.
Several of our friends and family members recently have pre-term labor or other complications of pregnancy. I've seen a lot of it in my practice, but it certainly takes on a different meaning when it's someone close to you. Makes me think about having a baby sooner than later. But then, I don't feel quite ready yet. Will I ever feel completely ready though? Hmm...
On another note, fall is here. I love fall and its colors. I will have to take some pictures of the leaves in the next few weeks.
