"There is always, always, always something to be thankful for."

This is something i told the kids whom i was subbing for tonite @ sre. Always gotta thank God in errthang you do, even if its juss a simple "thank you." you say. I have so many things to be thankful for, i juss wish other people would open their eyes to see their own blessings bestowed upon them. I mean my goodness, i have nice house to live in, i got a family who loves me and provides for me. My friends, well what i can say about them, their great! BEsides that i have friends of all ages, even the minors are my friends. YOu might think thas sick, but hey you can never have too many friends. It sucks when all people do is complain, yet they dont do two things, realize the blessing they have and then thank them. So bottom line is juss thank God for the things you have already, also thank the people around you(friend & fam bam tribe etc.) juss how lucky you are God has put them into your life. I try to do this as best as i can, by expressing it on hurr and to the people in person.

Today was a good day, it was pretty fun actually. I went to mass and well before i went to mass i receieved some rather stressful news. Please pray for my dad cuz my mom told me he might get layed off. See they only need one matience guy right now and its between him and my dad's friend. The other guy is like an auto mechanic so he works on the cars and trucks for work. My dad does errthang else around work though. Besides that, this has been the only job he's had since we moved out to cali in like 87. So please pray for the company that they wont have to let anyone go. Its kinda stressful thinking of that whole situation, but i know God will provide. As he always does for us. agh the econ sucks and i think its cuz of the pres.! agh republicans i tell ya...haha jk

Jeanne wanted to go and chill today, so we bof did a little ditching of class. YEah i knwo tsk tsk, thas bad, but i needed to do something to clear my head. We went to go the westminister mall and jeanne got to see what kuya does all day. I practically know like the whole mall lay out of westminister cuz im there so often now. haha Went to have lunch w/kuya, strider and jeanne @ the captial seafood chinese restaraunt. We all pigged out like no other on the food. We also saw kuyas parents and cha cha there also. That was some good fun, yes good times, good times!

Jeanne took me back home and i had to use the bathroom really bad since we left the mall. I survived the road trip home! woo haha Picked up the blender and then i went to work. Work was cool, i didnt have that many kids today as like yesterday. Oh i forgot imma be in this newspaper called the orange county news. No, not the oc register or oc la times. One of those local papers, that i think its sent out to my city, and the other ones neary by us. Like the city of westminister and garden grove, you should pick it up on tues. kuya. Im on the front page of the that mini newspaper. IT sucked cuz our whole dept wasnt there, were missng one whole person.Lyn² was @ the park w/her kids.

At work i tapped the spring catepillars the kids made the day to the counter. YOu know whas funny, i saw these kids playing at work. Then the mom comes and tells them in spanish, "no mijo...somethingsomething something in spanish." i thought they thas my name, except your name is in spanish! hahaha We made oreo shakes, which was really good, fruit salad and then smoe stawberry banana smoothie. mmm ti was good! my coworked help the kids make it today. There were these other girls who told one of my other co workers that i hated them. Cuz thye peeked to see wah we were making. Later on my co worker asks why i dont like the girls, so i explained to her my reasoning. She then understood why i didnt care for those jr. high girls.

Went home checked mail and then went to SRE. Achie took over the class while i subbed for some other class. I took role and i told the kids, "okay if youre here, when i call your name then say 'hurr.' " the kids looked @ me funny at first and were like huh? hah but they got use it as i went down the list, you should see them all raise their hand and say "hurr" hahaha it was cute actually. The kids were good theyre making their first communion next month. So i really had to push them to know the concept of what the eucharist really is. Hopefully they understood errthang i told them. Imma be there next week again, so then i can reinforce it.

Went to denny;s tonite that was fun. I saw my aunt there eating also, haha what a small world! We all went, JL jeanne, strider, el huego and achie. I chomped down on my buffalo wings like no other! forreal forreal i ate those llike within 2 min or something like that. haha jk Then when it came to paying i was charged jeanne's bill. So then they get this other girl whos good @ the register to try to help. This girl ends up being some girl whom i had in my SRE class a while back ago. The same girl who didnt like the way i taught and told cyndi that same thing. Then from then on cyndi didnt let me teach by myself for a while. booo the girl was weird too back then. The figured that they dont know how to fix it. So that girl who was in my past sre class asked me if jeanne could juss pay me the $1.50 difference in bills. Haha cuz i was a little bit mad and still holding on to that small past grudge, i said umm no. haha Then errone else in back of me were laughing. Oh btw, el huego and i were matching tonite! wooOO! hahaha

I got to go to reconcliation again tonite after SRE. I ran to see if i could still make it before they close it for the toniet. Luckily, i ran into Father brennan and he heard my confession. He gave me some good advice and then told me something i never figured i needed. It was like whoa, cuz i never thought of that in that light. So thas something i need to work on for myself right now. I know it'll be a little while before i find waht i need. Praise God for priests who help you out and juss listen.

So i find out this guy likes my sister and what not. I should im the guy and totally punk him, juss to test him out and see how he would react. haha jk thas mean though i am interested in IMing and juss seeings wha this guy is all about. Cuz i had over read this convo, where he was talking bout making the first move bout kissing her already. Then how when that happens how things can get pretty escalated after that...hmmm if you wanna im him you can its h0llatm3 hahah i think his name is like kal or something like that. ahh the drama of being in HS again, always something to talk bout. Like that song, "always something there to remind me..."

OKay, well i think ive written bout errthang i wanted to write bout. Imma be chillin w/kuya a lot next week. Along w/el huego also, that should be fun. I love how strider makes his jokes so real and how he has a story for errthang that happens. Like i can juss picture him thouands of years from now, sitting on that rocking chair on the pourch telling all the neighborhood kids bout stories of him. Like the one bout when he was tutoring or the football team and i can juss see the kids eyes sparkle w/amazement. hahaha

"Baby, what's the deal? Would I be too forward if I told you how I feel? That's just the way I do my thang, I'm so for real..." im done, im out God bless!
