christmas break 08
good ol days!
ps. we we’re watching serendipity
I specifically remember you telling me that when you have a car you are gonna take me to an aquarium. Something unusual, and different from what everyone always does. Keep your word? :D
Who knew you could feel two opposite emotions at once?
I’ve cried, staring at the screen devoid of even touching my face; my face dry, and sticky now. The first moment in a long time have I ever shed tears because I was glad to know what Christ did for me. I didn’t even need a visual image, just words off a computer screen. I was happy to truly listen, sit, and think.
So, I wept tears of joy reflecting on how awesome God is for using my friend as a tool, how encouraging she was to me, how I praise God so much for her, how I saw her grow these past years, how I could honestly see her love for God.
However, as I kept thinking about this, I suddenly came to an abrupt stop to all the good I saw in her and merely began to see negativity in myself. I had the desire to be just like her. STOP! I should not want to be like her, she’s a sinner just like me and everyone else. I felt so dirty; ME? I don’t pray, I don’t thank God as often as a I should, I don’t apply what I read, and I definitely don’t put God first; I don’t even attempt to put God first.
Ultimately, I learned that this is what God was trying to teach me all along. I have to accept myself, a sinner. God wants us to come to Him as sinners, because that who we really are. And going to Him provides the best comfort.
This explains everything.
I miss Kristine Dizon. Thanks for calling me even though I couldn’t talk! (:

15 Reasons Why Jacob Black Is Better Than Edward Cullen:
1-Jacob is alive. Edward is dead.
2-Jacob is warm and cuddly. Edward is an ice cube. He has to cuddle on top of the sheet just so Bella doesn’t freeze.
3-Jacob is happy and smiles all the time. Edward is moodier than a PMSing adolescent.
4-Jacob listens to Bella and compromises. Edward decides what’s good for her and dictates.
5-Jacob makes Bella happy. Edward makes Bella anxious, stupid, and obsessive.
6-Jacob and Bella have equal power in their relationship. Edward has all the power.
7-Jacob made Bella sad and confused for two weeks. Edward made Bella feel rejected and suicidally depressed for months.
8-It takes Jacob one day to apologize for making Bella miserable. It takes Edward most of a year and a whole lot of drama.
9-Bella loves Jacob for his sunny personality. Bella loves Edward cuz he smells good and looks “pretty”.
10-Jacob and Bella’s age difference is two years. Edward’s is one hundred (wtf?).
11-Jacob can turn into a wolf. All Edward can do is sparkle.
12-Who honestly likes kissing a statue? They’re too cold, stiff, unresponsive, and just plain hard.
13-Jacob is perfect because he isn’t perfect. Edward is too perfect.
14-Jacob has a pimped out motorcycle. All Edward has is a stupid shiny Volvo.
15-Jacob is hilarious. Edward is just plain boring. (too cliché)
124. What was your favorite birthday present?
I just want to say that I love all my presents. But, I have to say that I really love the dark green AA jacket from April, James, Lidia, & Ron! It was a surprise too! April told me to go outside and Ron popped the trunk and there was a bag. I opened to see the jacket of my favorite color, the one I’ve been wanting for the past 3 years. Thanks you guys!
Oh, & I want to take time to talk about the other things I got! The cake Paige made was very delicious! Joey’s books about Taylor Lautner & Rob Pattinson were cute, it even came with gigantic posters! Gail’s card was so cute, memories + Taylor Lautner pictures! THANK YOU!
123. What’s your favorite class at school?
I would have to say dance! I like dancing, it’s fun! && I also get to spend time with Carmina and Crystal! But, if I had to pick academically, I would say math. Ha, no one likes it, but I just happen to be good at it (even though I currently have a C+). It’s an actual subject where you have to understand it to get it right. Other subjects, you can just memorize certain things, and that’s how you’ll know the answer.
122. How often do you pray a day?
I honestly don’t pray a lot. And, I know I should. But, I never put it in to action. I pray about once or twice; three times max. And lately, I’ve only been praying because I just want to be well. I rarely pray at night. I only pray at night when I can’t sleep. I only pray when I eat a full meal. Thanks for this question; it’s really making me examine myself. I need to pray more. Not just to ask Him for things, but to thank Him and spend time actually praising Him.
121. Would you want Taylor lautners baby?
Why would I? Haha, I’m not that obsessed!
120. Blogger is better. This is a statement, not a question.
I just prefer Tumblr, I guess, because I dislike my layout in Blogger and it taking me forever to edit things. Tumblr shows the full post of each person I follow, which in a way, actually makes me prone to read it more, than seeing just a snippet of it in blogger. That’s just me!
119. If Disneyland is the second happiest place on earth, then what is the first happiest place on earth?
Haha, well I think the first happiest place is anywhere your friends come together for fellowship and share their love for Christ! Actually, I didn’t mean to put the ‘on earth’ part because Heaven IS the happiest place -period-.
118. Will you marry me? - http://www.faceinhole.com/show.asp?id=e01247d9b1213233435f
bahaha.
Nope, There is only one Taylor Lautner! :D

Today was the my second time! I watched it with John De Castro, Chelsea, Melissa, & Kathleen. && I sat with Mark Carillo, Mark Negado, and Kevin. HEEEHH! I love this movie. No one screamed for Rob. It was all Team Taylor :D
James really wants to be Taylor Lautner! :D
Why do people go out and drink illegally?
Why do they want to get drunk?
Why do they blaze/smoke?
Why do they drop?
How is this fun?
I guess, what I came up with, myself, is that they think it’s fun?
Well, I don’t think it’s fun throwing up and getting major hang overs.
It’s an escape?
Sure, but not for long.
It’s cool?
You think it’s cool because everyone else thinks it cool acting older, rebelling. You have something ‘cool’ to talk about to your friends.
And, I thought I could just tolerate my friends drinking. NOT. I can’t tolerate anything anymore. So, if you are my friend, I want you to stop. Our relationship with each other won’t be the same. I will find it hard to love you. So please?
It was Brian Ilagan’s and my birthday on the 21st! (:
In the car, Alex wanted to switch places and he ended up taking out the head rest. HAHA, Awkward head rest (;
Disneyland was fun. I just wished Angelle and Raymond could have made it ): Well, the people that came were Brian Ilagan, Paige, Bryan, Paul, Joey, Kevin, Alex and his sister Clarisse. It was also Alex’s “birthday” too.The lines were pretty short!
And we rode:
After, school, I waited for Ron to pick me up and go to his house. It was Bien’s birthday and there were lots of food! We ate, and then we headed to the mall. We saw Santi’s car next to ours while driving so Margiel flipped them off and started shouting in Korean. Raffy was yelling back. Then, margiel would talk to other strangers in their cars. We get to the mall and we wait in line for New Moon!
I loved New Moon! Ron and them started laughing when Taylor Lautner came out because he had long hair! Ha, whatever, he chopped that off later. I discussed how amazing the movie was with Stephanie, Liaren, James, and Danielle(?).
Rush to Kogi BBQ to see a long line. Saw a lot of old South Pointe people, Narisa, Derek Portea, and CFBC people! I just decided to go home X]
One word: Adorable.
