About Me

Hi!  My name is Laken. I thought it would be good to document my journey towards being a healthy person, both inside and out.  I realize that the inside takes a long time--my entire life.  But I've got to start somewhere.

I became a born again Christian in the summer of 2002.  I had some ups and downs in my life, but who doesn't in high school?  I rededicated my life to the Lord in the fall of 2006.  Since then I have been regularly attending church.  I am currently serving my church by transcribing the church service for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing.  It's very fulfilling, and I have no opportunity to stop listening.

My major goals for 2012 are to:

• Eat healthy food
• Have an elementary-level knowledge of the Japanese language
• Read the Bible.  The whole thing. 
• Develop systems of organization so that I can spend more time with my husband.
