2007, good-bye forever
This year seemed like it passed sooooooooooo fast although so much happened. I've made a lot of new friends, seen people step up to leadership possitions, seen people leave, seen people come back, had big ups and downs, moved houses to super close to gcf, and a lotta other stuff. But through it all, God has been so good and so Faithful :)
I guess the first major thing that comes to my mind is that i've been the head of the missions team for more than a year now. I started around August 2006. We've been emailing missionaries and praying for them. We did the missions 360 seminar, which was one of the most stressful things i have EVER done in my life. hahaha! i have to say thanks to the espinosas and jade for helping out with the skit even though they werent part of the missions team. And Barbie! She helpped me out so much too! Then we did the Mission Education fund-raiser headed by NAJEE. Yey! I hated doing that booth every week! =)) :)>- But it turned out well. We got to send the packages and help out the preschool continue God's work. :) Then this christmas we sent christmas cards =D Ohhhhhhh! and the new members! Barbie, Kate, Em, JAMIE (woooooo jamie!!!! Special mention cuz i think you're cool! jk, cuz you helpped me out a lot with the missions team :) ), Herlyn.... and yeah... i mighta forgotten some people :P
Believe it or not, im tired of writing na. But there's still so much to write about. :P
Ministies round Up: Fellowship Team has been a blast. Super. Especially our thursday night AGs during the summer!!! Wooooooo! Worship Team was fun too. I got to play alot. Got to play in the HS band which was just me and jasper. :P I got to play with a band that was put together last minute. seriously. 1 hour of practice lang. :)) That was me, jasper, andrew, tim e, and angel. :D Great time. :) I finally graduated too. 2 years of being a trainee. hahaha. Im really excited to be a worship team member na finally! :) Service team....ummmm...channels...yeah. that's all :))
NEW FRIENDS!!! :
I made so many new friends. :D
- Didi Met her AGAIN at camp. i guess we only started talking after camp. heh. I remember she said HI to me on the last night. after the P&W :P Then we talked a bit at GCF when we got back.
- Jia! I talked with her at camp like every morning. hehe. cuz she was early for breakfast :P

- Jairah! i dont know how we started talking.
But there was this one time when it was just the two of at gcf till like 11pm or something and we just talked about stuff....crushes and stuff :)) - Majar! i met him at the camp reunion pa :D he was one of our many roommates. This guy super stepped up in the fellowship team. Wooooo! way to go!
- Sjay! She was on my team at camp! what was our name again? PINKLETS!!!! Hahahaha. I thought your name was wierd the first time i heard it. it was like "SJ" "ESJAY" "ES-J" It sounded wierd :))

- IC n Jumpy.
- JAMES! YEAH-BOY! hahaha. i dunno. were we friends na before this year? maybe just a bit. But i think i got to now you better this year. Woooooo! The Jam-boy dance!!!! :)) Man! I really liked going up tot he sound tech room during set free cuz i was so stressed out. The sound tech room was cool.
- Liam!!!!! ;) ;) ;) I dunno. i knew him for long na. i dont know if we became friends lang this year.
- DEANE!!!!! - Ummmm, how did we become friends? I seriously dont know. we started talking some time during the summer. She was taking summer classes at galle! hehehe. And then we would ride home with her and Dags a lot =D wiiiiiiiiiiiiii~!!!
Wow.... Set Free pa. that was way cool. it ended too fast though, just like this year. The Prom rocked my socks too. hehehe. Danced with najee.
Oh man, P Ro left us this year. :( i guess it was really sad. But im so thankful to him for all he's done for the ministry and especially how he prepared us for his leaving. he set us up with P Beej. :D Im glad he still comes around though. I miss that guy.
Highlands with the Kuya Mark bunch. That was fun too. The animals smelled like ANIMALS! Hahaha.
Special shout outs to the following:
Luigi - What year huh? So many sabaw moments :)) and of course who could forget the summer! We just listened to the radio in the yc and texted....ummmm....ummmmm.... you know who....hahahaha....chikipapis!!!!
Nix! - I cant believe how close we got this year sis. >:D< Thanks for always listening when i need someone to talk to. :D
Najee - Yeah. haha. We actually got to talk alot lately. Ever since you started working at messiah i guess. Thanks for all fun times and all the talks about whatever it was that was bothering me :P
Lastly, shoutout to Jesus because he is my best friend, and he will always be, nothing will ever change that! haha. i need to talk to Him more. Seriously. sorry for ummmm.... yeah.... putting you on hold so long, God. :(
So i guess this is goodbye to 2007. good bye forever. cuz its gone. there's no going back. and there's no time machines yet. But even if there were i wouldnt go back cuz i mgiht mess it up. and then i'd screw up the space time continuum or whatever. :))
See you all in 2008! Let's make somemore awesome memories!
Sorry if this blog is kinda super all over the place and a bit wierd. It's 1:20 in the morning na eh :P :P :P

its been a while
I guess it all started at set free. i had a lotta miscommunications with Khat about the backstage crew. And then we had to seriously cram those last few days of practice. On the day itself, i was really stressed out because i couldnt gather my group of backstage crew so we could talk about details and pray. But it's not their fault cuz they were all working on gray team skit and dance min. So i was really stressed out about that... hehe.. let's just say i punched a lotta walls during the tech run. I found an escape from all the craziness though. It was the light tech room. hahaha. Seriously. Cuz it was just like james, neil, liam,a nd sometimes saki up there. And it was far enough from all the panic down below that i could relax for a while. Well... everything ended up great in the end. =D There's actually not much else to say about it, except God showed me again that if you give him your best, that's all that matters. he'll take care of the rest :)
After set free... ummm... i guess that's where things started getting....badish. Haha. funny word. anyway, ever since then, i've been going through this "im doing good one day, and the next everything's really bad" phase. It kinda showed in my actions a few times. Especially one time. but let's not go into that. Lets just say....between now and set free... i've been mad at a lotta people. and i dont really know why.... ok well i sorta know why.
Sunday was another bad day. I dont really wanna go into details why, but yeah it was. Especially vesper. And it sucks cuz i now many people felt that way too. it was obvious. Najee, sean, luigi, i dunno who else but yeah... us....
So this morning, i did this thing. well, one discipleship lesson i had with beej, he showed me that to keep his focus, Jesus woke up really early one morning to pray. So yeah, this morning i woke up at 7 so i could pray. I started at like 7:15 and ended at 8:15. yeah, 1 hour. longest prayer i ever did. hahahaha! Basically i prayed about the stuff that was been bothering me and for other people. i alternated prayer requests with P&W songs or christian music that way i wouldnt get tired of praying. Im gonna be focusing on God more this week and see how it goes.
There was this one song i listened to called consequences. it's by Relient K. i really like that song. It goes like this...just read the lyrics :)]
"I So Hate Consequences"
And I’m good, good, good to go
I got to get away
Get away from all of my mistakes
So here I sit looking at the traffic lights
The red extinguishes the hope that the green ignites
I want to run away I want to ditch my life
Cause all of my mistakes keep me awake at night
And after all of my alibis desert me
I just want to get by
I don’t want nothing to hurt me
I had no idea where my head was at
But if my heart says I’m sorry can we leave it at that
Because I just want for all of this to end
And I so hate consequences
And running from you is what my best defense is
Consequences
Oh God, don’t make me face up to this
And I so hate consequences
And running from you is what my best defense is
Cause I know that I let you down
And I don’t want to deal with that
It just now hit me this is more than just a set back
And when you spelled it out, well, I guess I didn’t get that
And every trace of momentum is gone
And this isn’t turning out the way I want
And after all of my alibis desert me
I just want to get by
I don’t want nothing to hurt me
I had no idea where my head was at
But if my heart says I’m sorry can we leave it at that
Because I just want for all of this to end
And I spent all last night
Tearing down
Every stoplight
And stop sign in this town
Now I think there might
Be no way to stop me now
I'll get away despite
The fact I’m so weighed down
All of my escapes have been exhausted
I thought I had a way but then I lost it
And my resistance was once much stronger
And I know I can't go on like this much longer
When I got tired of running from you
I stopped right there to catch my breath
There your words they caught my ears
You said, “I miss you son. Come home”
And my sins, they watched me leave
And in my heart I so believed
The love you felt for me was mine
The love I’d wished for all this time
And when the doors were closed
I heard no I told so’s
I said the words I knew you knew
Oh God, Oh God I needed you
God all this time I needed you, I needed you
And I so hate consequences
And running from you is what my best defense is
I hate these consequences
Because I know that I let you down
Now I don't wanna deal with that
And yeah... God's always willing to take you back when you stop running from Him. =) Im gonna be trying hard this week to keep my focus on Him and not fall back to where i was for the past few days. I'd be great if you guys would pray for me. I'm praying for all of you too. Every prayer request i've heard, im praying for it. :)
Hope everyone is sorta doing better too.
