i'd like to post something sana... kaya lang nakakatamad...
i still have to adjust with our new PC... i'm kinda having a little trouble using windows vusta without MS office... and other softwares we've already uploaded on the laptop... and i'm used to using our laptop kasi... tapos may internet explorer pa'to... e nakakainis kasi un kasi madali makaintercept ng virus... tsk tsk... tapos di pa naayos ung settings to block the pop-up ads... and more plug-ins to be installed...
huhu...
GOOD NEWS PALA! especially to GIA and mitch... and to all my cameradik friends out there... we just bought a digicam... kaya may gagamitin na tayo ulit... mitch, magkakapicture ka na ulit sa mga susunod na debut parties na aattendan natin... hihi...^^
but if you could help me locate any shop that could repair our old digicam, please help me so... nikon pala ung digicam na yun... and, sad to learn, it has no service center in the philippines.. kaya kahit repair shop would be fine... thanks!
that's it for now... still need to pack my things for the PCMC family camp @ lucban... -geeh... kinda excited... ^^-
------------------------------
praise God for His provision! i thank Him for the blessings.... not only those material things He's just provided... but also the spiritual blessings He's given us...

sweet reminders...
i came from a debut party this evening [sunday na ba ngayon? basta saturday night yung debut.^_^]...
i was able to attend the worship dept prayer and fasting last friday... [it was the 3rd p&f already according to tita gi]...
... and i am so excited to report that i am already learning to discipline my eating habits [although not that disciplined yet... haha...] it's not really THAT big deal. yet i am happy to share with you that i haven't eaten pork from the party... kaso i still ate beef teriyaki [kasi naserve na sa plate ko] and chicken [kasi walang veggie]... may salad kaya lang meaty pa rin... but anyway, i'm glad na naalala ko na di na nga pala ko dapat masyado eat ng meat...
... that reminds me of the book i saw at powerbooks ATC [na hanggang ngayon ay inaasam-asam ko pa rin bilhin o na may magregalo sa akin... haha] the book's entitled, "What Would Jesus Eat"... i think it's a biblical approach on eating... ^_^

i was able to attend the worship dept prayer and fasting last friday... [it was the 3rd p&f already according to tita gi]...
... i'm blessed that God has been uniting the worship dept even through prayer and fasting... [Lord, more of those pa po please? ^^]
... we were all blessed... and the worship dept leaders were so glad, they would repeatedly tell us, because the group has been composed more of the young ones [youth and YA]... at nakakatuwa si Lord kasi daming dance ang umattend... di lang leaders pero may mga members din...
... kakatuwa din ung shinare ng isang leader [so sorry, i forgot kung si tita gi, kuya ryan, or ate rolette ba un...]... sabi niya, 'the prayer of a young man is more powerful than anyone else...' [siyempre papasok sa isip mo, di ba mas powerful ang prayer ng bata/child?] oo nga... pero ang mga leaders pala natin, ganito ang naiisip, 'Lord, pa'no mo ba naman hindi sasagutin ang prayer ng mga yan [youth]... imbis na nasa mundo sila at nagbibisyo, naininigarilyo, nagbabarkada, umiinom, e nandito sila... mas pinili nilang manalangin sa'yo... sa lagay na yan, hindi mo pa ba sila pakikinggan???' the moment i heard this narealize ko na 'oo nga Lord noh?!' we just have to add up 'a little more faith, a little more persistence, and a little more perseverance' in our prayer and actions... all we have to do is to believe that God can do great and mighty things that we could ever imagine... minsan, we think God doesn't listen to us anymore... kasi masyado tayo makasalanan para humarap sa Kanya... but actually, all we have to do is to have the courage to come before His Throne of Grace [sa biyaya lang Niya! un lang!] and admit that we have sinned before Him... tapos let us have that faith that expects good results [of course, the results do not always come in a flash...] but we have to believe that God answers and will answer all our prayers... in His perfect time... and in His unique way... [remember Ptr Anthony's 'Buddha! Buddha!' story???] ayun... dapat di tayo ganun... God is and will always be fatithful to us!

i miss blogging... [again]
...but i still don't have enough time to enumerate what i'm going/ i've been going through...
i'm just so thankful...
i'm just so thankful...
Never Give Up On Me
Josh Bates
Josh Bates
Time after time you’ve been left behind
like the sun when it’s starting to rain
Time after time you’ve been forgotten
like a picture that’s faded with age
Time after time you ran after me
when I was still running away
Chorus:
You never give up on me
No, You never give up on me
Though I’m weak you are strong
You told me I still belong
No, you never, never give up on me
Time after time I’ve used your grace
as a way to do what I please
I’ve taken for granted prayers that you answered
never been all I could be
You are holding out your hands
and now I clearly see
Bridge:
You always erase all my mistakes
You lift me up when I am down
Through all the ages, Your love never changes
You welcome me just as I am
...that He never gives up on me
will i ever go back to mcdonald's again?
i was able to watch Supersize Me this morning...
it's a docu-film about the effects of fast food to our health... i have actually watched part of it already during my freshman days in college... but today was my first time to view the complete film.
some recalled facts and realizations:
- McNuggets are made with preservatives and chemicals... afterall, do you see nuggets from a chicken? [i wouldn't wonder why this is also called 'McFrankenstein']
- in most public schools in the US, only 6 out of 36 meals served are cooked by the school concessionaire. the rest, preheated... and reheated from the boxes.
- Texas is known as the 'fattest city in America'
- physical education/physical exercise should be 30 minutes a day, at least 3 times a week
- even McSalad has sugar in it... [whaaat? tsk tsk tsk]
- if you eat McDonald's Supersize Meal three times a day for thirty days, you eat as much fat and sugar as you would for eight years... imagine taking up almost 30 lbs of sugar and 12 lbs of fat in just 30 days??? [gross...]
[those are just some effects of fast food in our health]
------------------------------------
it also reminded me of the news on formaldehyde content found on some foods from China...
------------------------------------
and me checking out articles about South Beach Diet... ^_^
-->>> argh! i've been craving for a McDonald's meal pa naman... haha... but after watching the film?? ayoko na... haha...
i think i'm really gonna pursue my vegetarian diet really soon... [of course, tatay and nanay won't allow me to eat just veggies for the rest of my life... -sigh- kaya i still need to eat fish, chicken, milk, or egg for protein and calcium]
but i would be happy if my parents would let me try South Beach Diet... haha... it's s pretty good test of self-control on my part coz although i'm not really a rice person, i eat potatoes and bread a lot... i think it will not test just the physical side of me but the spiritual side also....
quoting from mitch: "Lord, if that would draw me closer to You... i'll do it..." ^_^

...sembreak na si GIA and she's planning to schedule an ice skating bonding! yehey! [sa mga interested sumama sa bonding na'to, please coordinate with GIA... ^_^]
BLESSED because...
...we just had our first session of the Worship Department Leadership Enhancement Seminar with Ptr. Anthony last night [kasi nga umaga na... ^_^]... the topic? [haha..] a leader must be a VISIONARY! [kakatuwa lang how God made that session connected with our topics sa towdah sessions... -c-,] kakamiss nga sina ate che ann at chayanne... kasi wala sila sa session kanina [ay, kagabi pala]...
EXCITED because...
...i will be having a copy of the fourth quarter issue Word4Utoday very soon [mamaya na nga yata]... yehey! [special thank you in advance, ate weng!]
...a few hours from now, [syempre umaga na di pa rin ako natutulog diba? hehe] Youth and YA Worship Revival na... sana nga MMR-wide na lang ung revival... la lang... para makabonding ulit ang mga taga COG-MMR churches...

God bless us all!

random updates
today is the last day of classes for UP. but for me, and for the rest of the other classes, we still have to go through the hole of a needle...
we still have to report in class on tuesday....
some more papers to accomplish...
an event to hold...
Student Evaluation Test. this morning, we had another sets of S.E.T.'s for our Tourism Promotions (T153) and MICE Management (T126) classes... kung alam lang ni ma'am vicky kung gaano kami ka-excited magsagot nito.. haha...
don't ask me why coz it's kinda confidential... [kung di ka part ng classes na yun..hehe]... hehe...
pero SET times are sometimes boring... kasi you have to answer almost 4 pages of evaluation questions...
-ma'am vicky, by the way, is not our professor. she is part of the academic affairs something in AIT. sya ung nagcoconduct ng SET sa lahat ng subjects sa lahat ng students...-
Towdah Sessions. We had our lecture 4 on our leadership series yesterday. but we started late and practiced for angkla first because both i and ate eurice almost forgot that we have session... tapos si ate thine naglipat bahay pa sa manila.. e kaming 3 la naman ang members ng towdah ngayon kasi si may isang nasa jeddah [hehe]... anyway, the lacture was about VISION... next time na ko magpopost ng insights...
Towdah Exam & Home Visit. We had our first exam last Tuesday... for lectures 1-3... kinda scary at first because ate eu and i weren't able to prepare much... and probably because we're excited for our supposedly overnight home visit at ate pepz's place.... well, the planned overnight wasn't pursued because ate thine can't come and ate eu's in doubt... haha... kung 2 na lang kami ni ate pepz, muzta naman diba?! haha... kaya we'll schedule it some other time na lang ulit...
-Lord, after this can i have a time to refresh? or relax? or unwind? haaay... sana po talaga...-

my family...
--,)' had a great time with my family that day...
we'll surely miss tita mel...
she left for US, 8am yesterday with her fiancee, ray.
she'd shared so much to us & that's what we'd surely miss.
for now, God is giving the other part of her life... that is having her partner after 50 years of waiting...
miss ka namin tita mel!
we love you!

newsflash!
nakaalis na ako ng bansa...
ngunit nag-iwan ng marami delubyo...
ang bagsik ko nga daw sabi ng tita ko...
tinganan mo, hanggang ngayon baha pa rin sa maraming lugar dito...
sabi pa naman ng marami, mahina lang ako dahil mukhang mahina ang pangalan ko...
nagulat na lang sila nang dumating ako at maghasik ng lagim...
pagpasensyahan nyo na ako ha?
-bagyong hannah... [hehe]
