"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us..."

Today was quite a interesting day for me. THough i do have to say it was really good. A lot of unexpected things came up which made the day exciting and well worf enjoying. THis 4th i got to spend it w/friends and fam bam. I spent the whole morning banging and breaking cabinets into small wood block pieces. Helped my dad rewire the whole kitchen are, agh that was boring. Got ready and walked over to my grandparents house which is only around the corner from mine.

I was stopped by their next door neighbor and she asked me how i was doing and if i was in college now. THe basic small talk discussion items, then she asked if i was still teaching SRE. I told her yes on tues. confirmation and thurs. eucharist. She was like wow then said maybe you should become a priest. I laughed and said ha youre not the only one who has said to me. I told her whatever God has in store for me ill be open to it.

After that she told me she was going to become a sister but then felt God was calling her to serve elsewhere. We were talking forever as she told me bout her personal testimony. HOw she was raised totally devout catholic by her parents. Her mom especially, always praying the rosary and juss devotion to the church. She said when she was younger she was searching for a order so she was going in and out of different orders looking for the right one for her. Well i guess she also use to give talks to like poor mexican families. One day this guy walks into the room whurr shes giving her talk and she fell in love w/him.

They talked for a year and he found out that she was discerning whether to become a nun or not. He told her wasnt going to stand inbetween her and God. At the same time they both had spiritual directors, who was Fr. Larry from St. Peter Chanel. I think he kinda hooked them up in a way. ONe day while talking ot the girl he knew that God wanted her to serve elsewhere for the church. The lady wanted to be a sister but still was ni love w/that guy. Well ends up the two of tehm get married @ St. PEter Chanel and now have 2 kids bof whom have been baptised by Fr. Larry. Really an awesome couple, juss nice to know there are still devout catholics out there.

HAd lunch @ my grandparents house, it waas coo. It was different cuz the whole fam bam wasnt durr. These past holiday events we havent had the whole fam bam together. Which sucks cuz it seems like errone is always busy or working. booo I went home and lyn lyn called me asking if i wanted to go to the beach. I was like yeah! I changed and left to the velascodome. We ate at this one mexican restaraunt which was pretty good. I had this humongous shrimp burrito. I was also dancing on the mini stage el juego has on video...haha its pretty funny.

The beach was nice not so busy which was suprising being its a holiday. I wasnt planning on getting soaked and wet. The mexican picked me up and kinda threw me into the water! booOOo Which lead me to get all soak and sticky and nasty and uncomfortable. LAter on el juego and him teamed up and tried to get me and i ended up falling in the water again! Then the mexican ddint want me in his truck cuz i was wet...i threw the god card @ him. "This is how you treat your brother in Christ? what if i was Jesus?" hahahh it worked cuz i ended up riding back to the velascodome.

I was upset cuz i totally forgot to get my wallet from achie and her and aela went to mass. SO i went home hoping i wouldnt get pulled over, praise God i didnt. Went back to my grandmas ate and fell asleep for a little bit. Did some fireworks, love those morning glories! I remember the past couple 4th of julys, thoe were d0pe. This was real mellow...so after errthang died down i left to go pick uip my wallet @ teh velascodome.

I almost got pulled over, see the popos blocked off the one lane off of shoemaker. Well i couldnt tell if all teh lanes were blocked or juss one. SO i turned and as i turned i saw it was all blocked off! I was like oh crap now imma get pulled over. Praise God they didnt, they let me go. I really thought he was since they all looked @ me. Went to velascodome and watched this one filipino movie. I liked it cuz i could understand it. It was a really swe3t love story, awwww Later played this 'in my world' game w/arch, babyveee and el juego. That was fun! Taught el juego how to play quadro four too. Then the velascos, aela made me an ice cream w/a candle in it. They suprised me by singing happy birfday! awwww What a d0pe suprise!


Ahh finally the day has come...
