Creel to Los Mochis to Tijuana, now in SD; Convictions

I just returned to SD about 1.5 days ago, in time to spend Christmas with family. I cut my 2+ week trip short by skipping La Paz and Cabo San Lucas on the Baja Peninsula. It was unrealistic to think I could make it down to Guatemala in that short time, but now I hope to go to Guatemala (or Cuernavaca) this summer to study Spanish.

I have had to much time to think and meditate on what God wants for me here in SD throughout the Mexico trip. Coming back feels like a return from a long retreat and I have many convictions:
(1) Integrate my faith and trust in Jesus into my daily life by being more bold about living for Him, reading the Word at school regularly, and just not being ashamed to be judged by others for my faith;
(2) Maintain my strong work ethic from this past quarter during this vacation, and spend half my days studying and reading my books;
(3) fully launch a company with Danny Cheng that help families cultivate loving relationships within through storybooks and activity guides, ties in with (2);
(4) I am convicted that now, as it has been over the past 6+ months, I should NOT even consider dating. I'm excited and fulfilled with Him alone, and I don't feel like this is the season for me to think about a girl.
