Award! ||salamat XD||

First time ko nga pala magkaroon ng award… salamat kay "kuya tanom"…;)

Ewan ko ba kung anong meron, pero, next time ko na lang ilalagay sa site ko. Hehe. Salamat ulit. ;)

Kahit hindi ako nagb-blog hop these days, salamat.

Nakakapag-post nga lang ako dahil dito sa MS Word 07, na pwede akong mag-publish ng blog agad. Hehe..

 

Feeling busy ang nursing student…may anatomy na kasi.

Ngapla, p515.04 lang binayaran ko this sem!! XD

Saka, may 7 ang total ng sciences na kelangan naming pag-aralan ngayon. T_T

Tapos, hindi ko pa classmate sila…

T_T

 

La lang.

Pero, salamat na rin at may Arnie. XD

Sunday school XD, and what I heard from Tita B.

It was last Sunday, November 18, and yes, we went out to church. It's not just a ritual anyway, but it is a time of renewing our souls with spiritual blessings, lavishly. To my surprise, we arrived almost before the middle of the sermon, because we always get there late.

The Church of Thyatira was the Sunday school's topic. They were people of compassion towards each other, as you are in a big family. You can see in them that they grow in love, service and faith… But Jesus saw one thing against them: they were tolerating a member, in the name of love, a false prophetess named Jezebel, who from the Old Testament was:

  • A daughter of a Pagan
  • Supporter of the prophets of Baal
  • Issuer of a death threat to the prophet Elijah

The Jezebel mentioned could be someone symbolically, which was the reason why I related it to the Jezebel of the Old Testament, or it could be that Jezebel is her real name. Because of Jezebel, Christian principles that they could have been practicing were ignored, so Jesus grieved them for that. What we can do is that we keep our trust and honesty to God.

Encouragements:

  1. "I place no other burdens on you." – Revelations 2:24 (restraint from fornication…and others.)
  2. "Whatever you have, hold fast until I come." – Revelations 2:25 (It will be a struggle/war, but those who persevere will rule with Jesus. Psalms 2)
  3. Jesus is our bright morning star, amidst the dark world. – Revelations 22:16

And so, I just wanted to share this because I find its implication/s… I mean, as for me who meets more people for friends [i.e. NEW classmates], this is essential that I keep what I stand for, and that I won't be pulled away from those things because of even just a friend. It's just great; I hope I made you understand…reader... ;)

Anyway, the night of that Sunday, we were given a chance to go home, with tita B accompanying us as she goes to hers. Her place was nearer, I might add. While we were on our way, mommy and tita were talking about things, so as not to keep a dead air. From all the things that they were talking about, one thing tore my heart.

It was her nieces. Tita b had her nieces attend the church every Sunday, since summer?...or so I thought. She related us what happened the time they got to meet again after years that led to their comeback attendance to the church that my family also attends to.

She said that it was one Sunday morning when she ran out of medicine, which did occur that one time. While on her way to a drugstore, she heard someone calling her name; as it turns out, those were her nieces, in their dresses, and told her that they were looking for a church. A situation in which is rare among many individuals, especially the teens.

It struck me because, for almost all my life, I have been nurtured with the words of God, in different churchesmostly at Parañaqueand only this time of my life am I searching for God (and sometimes, i even find myself just idling around, not having the desire.)

But then again, it's a lesson learned.

Sana, kayo rin.

Two years…;)

Two years ago, November 16, 2005, I had the chance of meeting up with someone I wouldn't think of as special. His name is Arnie. We met in a Bible Study, but never really talked because I had someone protective, not wanting me to talk with any other guy...but of course, it's only when we are together. XD

Yesterday, we were given a chance to go home earlier than the allotted time because the professor we were suppose to have was absent. Upon our homeward bound, Nesty, Jam and I were surprised to see someone wearing a white shirt, which was similar to Yael's [which he wore on their video, Bitiw]. It was Arnie, typically wearing his Levi's shirt, and Levi's pants, and Levi's watch, and Levi's necklace, and Levi's wallet…and who knows what other things? XD [just kidding, Arn! XD]

It was almost 3 pm that time, and if our classes had been resumed, he was going to wait for a long 1 hour and 30 minutes just to see me, and have me given his gift! [Well actually, it was what Nesty was worrying about. XD] Of course, who wouldn't be all-smiles with that event? XD I was, and still am. J [Though we're now just good friends. J] I also was shocked, because I wasn't expecting him, nor I didn't know that there was a celebration…

It was only when we were already in a jitney going home that I remembered the date. The November 16 day, and I was so sorry that I didn't remember… On our way home, we talked about many wonderful things, which are so overwhelmingly memorable. Through the tricycle ride, the driver took us around the village before we could 'take off' only to find out that my mother and my sister were in a place needing a long walk to go to.

He was actually not planning to accompany me home, but since I insisted, he refused to reject the invitation. He was also worrying that maybe my mom would be disappointed since he only asked permission that he drop by at my school so he could give me a gift.

During our time together, he cooked me a siesta…and gave me a free treat, and reminded me of how beautiful life is, even if school comes along. I could never forget such a person…

Anyway, the gift was a box of Goldilocks…;) At first, Jam and I have thought of it as a chocolate cake, both our favorite… but it was actually something that I have long been craving for! XD [PM me for the gift..XD]

Before he left which was the hardest part of his visit it took us some time to actually stand up…and start our way out…but never mind. I was just so thankful that God has let this happen again, after a long time. At least, He still permits us to become friends and be there for each other…after all, it's all for Him.

Dock Pins and First Days…

    Last Tuesday, while I was too busy to blog [with the exception of my journal], my friends and I have decided to have a small gathering by playing dock pin. I was late, because I had my class until 4.30, and our meeting time was 3. [I know.] So, I had to go home as fast as I could, change clothes as fast as I could, and eat for my lunch [I didn't] as fast as I could so I could go to Los Baños as fast as I could. [I know.]

    Another thing was, during the afternoons, in which most people would probably be going home. I spent almost 20 minutes, enough for the whole trip in a place called Anos, and there by Celine's street, I have been able to see and have a little talk with her.

    At Vega, I have seen Arian and Melissa walk along its street from the other side of the road, that I got no chance to greet them. It was so dark already; I was so scared of not being able to be with them, because at UP, you will never know what happen. Good thing they were still there, so I had the chance to play with them. It was a great excitement, because it was my first time, and they were even laughing…>.< unfortunately, the ones in-charge were so lazy to make business with us that they only gave us 'a' chance to play.

    With so little time for them to prepare for their first day of class the next morning at 7.30, we departed at a time we didn't want to. As for me, I had to travel through the night [?] to get home. Before our departure, Katrhina wished for us to have lovers who would have wheels…And we all came back to Carmichael. T_T
