| Had quite an interesting talk with some of the guys this morning while shooting hoops. Stuff about what we want our future wives to be like. What we want them to do.
Funny how we didn't mention the typicals. Like, if I get murdered, will you kill the mofo who shot me? Or if I get thrown in jail, will you bail me out? That's just nonsense.
It's more like..
If you're saved, if you're a child of God, will you love God more than you love me? Only God can love you more than I do, so it's only fair to love God more.
If God called me to give up a high paying job to pursue full time service in a Church, will you say okay and stick with me?
If God leads me to give up a mansion and all our possessions to become a missionary to a third world country, will you abide and follow me?
If God wants me to give up fame and glory to live a life as Pastor for a small Church, will you put your trust in God and stay with me?

Ten weeks of school left. Excited? Not really.
30-something Paces left. Hell yeah I'm gonna make it.
When I think about it, it is kinda exciting.
For you people who aren't aware of this, Fabba will only have FIVE potential graduates this year. And we're all GUYS. Can you believe that? I can't. Micha and Bec ditched us. Zorh.
Brian Santiago, Justin Miller, Theo Frashure, Oliver Lapurga, and me. Oh my soul.

CLOVER CAME BACK! My goodness. She's been gone for like, forever. I missed that girl.

Dahh. I have to bring baby and kid pictures of me tomorrow to school. One problem, my baby and kid pictures are at Long Beach with my grandparents.

I have a feeling that this is gonna be a great week for me. | | |
| "I remember growing up in the Philippines, my mother would always cook us tilapia. She'd give me and my brothers and sisters part of the body and tail. She'd keep the head for herself. She did this everytime she'd cook us fish. I thought, oh my, the head must taste good. I tried it just recently, and I learned it doesn't taste as good as I thought. I learned that my mother would eat the head, just so us children will have more parts of the body and tail. She sacrificed. And I thank God for her. Thank you, Nanay." - Pastor Larry Obero
I'm never gonna forget that.

I attended this evening's Church Service. We had a female missionary from Africa visit us. She showed us a small presentation of the work she was involved in at Africa. Oh my soul, those orphans. Flooded with war, disease, and high death rates..
I must say, that rekindled my burden for lost souls.
I haven't been sharing the Gospel to friends as I should be. I've been slacking off as a Christian. Need to get back on track.

Supposed to watch Final Destination 3 tomorrow with the crew. Don't think it's gonna happen.

I've fallen for her again.
Confession is good for the soul.

This was my first full day of school I attended this whole week. Was sick earlier this week with some flu-ish thingie.
I was sleeping for the majority of the school day. Hardly got any work done. Chilled at the store in the morning. Shot some hoops with the Framo kids. Fun stuff.
Played some four-on-four during lunch. Teamed up with Denwill, Josh Pascua, and Wesley. Fun stuff.
Saw Mandy when school was over. Didn't get to talk to her much, pity.
Basketball practice was kinda weird. We "learned" plays. Coach Framo made a play called the "Rainbow." (Cough)
Tomorrow's our "big game" against Mira Mesa. We're gonna have to beat them and the following team for the fourth seed in the playoffs. Yup, we can do it. Coach Framo's been doing a great job, we can do this.
------
What's worse than trying to fit everyone's high expectations of me is trying to fit those high expectations while I'm sick.
------
Guess what I learned today while reading my Bible and Paces? I learned not to hold grudges~
Yeah, shut up, we actually learn stuff from those Paces. Don't make fun.
------
I have to talk to Kaye.
------
I have 27 pages of homework tonight. Might as well get started.
That's all for now. | | |
| Oh my goodness.
Stop with your gossip. If you start saying things about this individual again, she's gonna hear about it from me. Understand?
Freakin' gossip.. I'm not into that cow manure.
And who the hell are you to criticize me? I'm tired of your cow manure. Your gossip, your tendency to praise yourself all the time, acting as if you're far more superior than the rest of us.
"All that practice for nothing, man."
"You don't get speed."
"You can't shoot freethrows."
"You can shoot three pointers."
"Ahahaha you suck, man."
Oh screw that. Stop talking. Please. It's not profitable for my spiritual growth. Go get hit by a parked car or something. No really, I mean that. You're not cool anymore.
I hope you had your fun.

Crappy week. Basketball practices were whack. Convention preparation was stupid. Didn't even finish whatever we needed to do. Stressed like crazy.
Blah blah blah blah blah. I have a feeling the next few weeks are gonna be quite stressful.
------
Wasted talent. Time for me to find something else to succeed in. | | |
| Oh my goodness.
Today was the official end of my "finish all work before the school day ends" streak. Only finished three Paces, out of the five I've planned.
Basketball practice wasn't even practice. We watched last weeks Varsity Game that was taped. Boring~
After practice, hopped into Alex's car with Jason and headed to Otay to play some basketball. Met up with Josten. Picked up a few games. Goodness, after that whole week of the flu, my shots died. Especially my shots from the strike, I'm a freakin' Shaq from the strike.
Played a total of five games. Tired like crazy. Drove over to Maharlika to buy some ulam. Brought it back to my place and ate. Mmm. Sisig. Gotta love that stuff.
------
Life's good. I'm beginning to enjoy things more than ever. I usually don't go out with friends this often, but now that I'm doing so, life's been better.
God's so good to me. I can't believe how much I take things for granted. All those times I tried to compromise with God. Trying to get my way. But I realized that my way is not the right way.
With that said, I gotta fix some things. Gotta fix stuff with the family. Gotta rekindle some friendships. Set some grudges aside.
Two people I needa talk to. No, wait.. three. Three people.
I'll see one tomorrow at school. Another at church this coming Sunday. And the third.. oh my.. this is gonna be a toughie.

I'm so tired. | | |
