"If you could only sense how important you are to the lives of those you meet; how important you can be to the people you may never even dream of. There is something of yourself that you leave at the every meeting w/another person..."

Agh finally!! I cant believe i havent blogged in wha 3 days. Pretty suprising for me huh. Its been a struggle really it has w/the stupid computer. Errtime id be online id do the usual browse the web and once id close the website id get signed off or the internet would restart again. This problem wasnt getting any better. I tried errthang from getting a new modem put in, to checking the phone line. Finally drastic times comes for drastic measures. I had to do the recovery wizard and bring the computer back to the wya it was when i first bought it. I did back up all my files and errthang. Soo this may sound like an odd prayer request, but keep this computer in your prayers so it doesnt get all whacked out again.

WOw so much has happened in these past 3 days. I dont even know whurr to begin. Ive met Jesus in dozens of different places. I have tons of praise reports and lots of mail to reply back to. I was contemplating on this quote(see above). Can you imagine how many different people you come in contact w/errday. I mean even the people you see at the murrket juss walking on by.

For those who know me, you know im a pretty social guy. Im hardly ever quiet and i can talk forever. Sometimes if i get you online and we have a really good convo, ill ask you to stay juss for 5 or 10 min. Ill say, 'cmonnn juss 10 more min!' Or jaymee use to get this one all the time, 'well leave @ such and such time to make it even!' haha I like making new friends, i like meeting new people and eventually adding them to my BL! haha yess!

The point being is when you meet those people, juss think bout how important you are to those you come across. On top of that how many more people youre eventually going to meet and yet how important you can be to those people as well. Each time you run into someone you meet or even if it juss an errday person that you talk to, you leave something of yourself each time you meet. Pretty crazy huh? I think when it comes down to it, you wanna be able to be Jesus to those people you end up coming across. So when they leave they say, wow i met Jesus today through (insert your name hurr).

This weekend has been great, even though i wasnt able to really blog. Friday i caught the end of the 'batteries not included' play. It was really good, too bad i couldnt fully understand the story line since i didnt see the whole play. Errone did a really good job! It brought back memories when i was in theatre my freshmen yurr in HS. Anyway, it was coo cuz all my UCI friends wwas thurr. We all went to the afterpurrty @ jei franxis' house.

WEll first i followed leo, tonz, derrick, marites, fake gf, arelene, and reg i think thas it to pauls place. Well paul's place was closed soo we were sitting in the purrking lot deciding upon whurr to go next. So we ended up going to jack in the box. When we got thurr the door was locked but thurr was people inside eating. The sign still said open. Half of them said 'lets juss go through drive thru.' I told them 'agh no we juss gotta persevere. They'll open it for us.' ANd soon enough they came and opened the door for us!

YOu know i havent talked to charisse in days, her and i really need to sit down and start planning things out. Ive been meaning to call her too but things have been so hectic. So probably ill holla tomorrow or something. Now that skools over i can start putting more emphasis on spirit games and wha not. Im really excited now that we have a venue. Praise God for that really cuz you dont know how stressed i was over that.

Yesterday was the annual pentecost picnic, it was fun. Agh lf was suppose to come and they didnt even come! Agh! ANyway, we had an abuduance of food! From beef sticks to ice cream to errthang else. WOw it was so good! WE didnt get to play softball as planned, but we did play capture the flag! haha that was fun, its always tight when SH plays games together. We get really into it too. Praise God for fun times w/the community.

The other day i had an accident. I was at burr's house and well i was leaving through the garage. So i pushed the garage door opener, so i could close it and race out to leave @ the same time. Unfortunately that didnt work, i ended up getting caught under the garage door. Yes, once again ha anotha one of my 'near deaf' experiences. The door sorta closed on my back as tried to rush out. I ended up scrapping it really bad. It still kinda hurts too. Praise God though its nothing major...

I met Jesus through a couple of people last nite. After the pinic, i went over to catch the end of the bellflower CLP. Im not really helping out but fred's going through it. Errrtime i go thurr it always brings back memories. Even as i walk in the door i start to reminisce back when i was going through it. So anyway, i met Jesus through michelle, who i saw thurr. I met Jesus through her cuz she's always smiling and always so friendly. As Mother Teresa once said, 'i will never understand all the good a simple smile can accomplish.' A smile says a whole lot, so its always best to try to smile even through the hardtimes.

Then i met Jesus through this big guy @ the theatres last nite. Fred and i went to go watch 'The day after tomorrow.' The first movie ive watched in theatres since geez who knows when. ANwyay, so we got thurr and the place was jam packed. People were saving seats at the top and pretty much all that was left was the bottom. Well this guy sees that were looking for two seats. He signals me telling me thurrs two seats by him. He moves over one seat so fred and i can sit together, rather then sitting errother seat. I thought that was nice of him being he couldve saved those seats for himself.

Today was ministry awareness day and we passed out LSS fliers at all the masses. It was soo hot! I got burnt from being at the purrk yesterday! Anyway, so i sat w/jaymee and el juego shurring stories bout martyrs. They were really inspring stories, of lives of ordinary people who shed thurr own blood for wha they believed in. I always love listening to jaymee's stories cuz they way she talks when she shurrs is very wow like!

Elijah is so funny i told him yesterday, 'elijiah do burrbie swan princess.' HE told me 'noo uncle jason, imma boy now!' hahah Its soo exciting watching kids grow up. Especially the little ones like elijiah and leilani. Despite the fact i havent been thurr since day one of thurr lives, they still always bring a smile to my face. LIke leilani today kept telling me, 'remember uncle jason when you kept sayin 'poo' to elijiah?' Then she would start to giggle.

It was fun times outside boba loca w/burr, boss lady, beyonce, lyn², leilani, and fred. We were outside sitting in front of boba loca juss laughing bout errthang. The discussion topics were so funny. Ahh yes the joy of friendship!

Praise Report(s) for the day:
I praise God for juss how so furr errthangs fixed on my comp. I praise God for the gift of laughter and the joy of friendship. To come together and having the greatest time laughing and juss joking around w/friends. I juss praise God for being able to see a brand new day. To wake up errday and being able to start fresh again.

On a side note on thursday during our SRE end of the yurr dinner. WEll i ate massive! We had this broccli, w/chicken and potatoes. I finished mine and i was still hungry. Since the mexican, jeanne, and achie didnt want thurrs, i ended up eating thurrs too! haha What a fatty, yes i know. Haha its okay i got one month to start getting fit! Ah i must start to work out!

You know wha i realized today? Do you know how much $$ id have right now for errtime fred would say 'yesss!' Ha i made that up! So if i churrged him for each time he said 'yess' and 'agh' id be sooo rich! hhaah Yess! Anyway, okay imma start my own version of 'fanmail' and its gonna be called...

Whurr am i?!

"The more you cling to Jesus, the more capable you will become of being close to one another..."

Ive been having internet problems all day long. Ever since i came back home from my final. It signs me off and on, then when i even finished dloading the new AOL opitimized se version, i was getting more problems which lead me to get more irritarted. When it comes to stuff like that i have no patience. I get real frustrated and want the problem fixed right away. Fred ssaid its a virus, ahh i hope not. Hes gonna give me antibiotics to kill virus. yess!

I was up till 2am studying for my finale final. So im quite exhausted, cuz i woke up @ 830am so i can be @ skool and study for at least a good 1.5 hrs before class. And that i did do! You know those days when youre soo tired you juss dont want to get up. Yeah thas how it was this morning. I forced myself up and showered to wake up. Drove to skool and studied for a good hour and a half. I guess mostly errone had thurr finals last week. Skool has been dead, the purrking lot empty.

The final was pretty coo, i think i did alright. That late study session w/burr really did help and come in handy. I couldve thought that i wrote bout him in yesterday's entry. Oh well, maybe the intention was to but then i forgot. I tend to do do that a lot, thurr be something id want to write but end up forgetting to. I know thurr wass somethign else i wanted to say today, but its a blurr to me. Hopefully, i'll remember later.

On a side note, burr went all up in my blog and redirected my blog ot his. Yeah, he was pretty slick, i didnt realize it till i got to work. I was like wha the heck is going on hurr?!!! Though good thing i was able to fix so it wouldnt redirect to his anymore. Juss for that i should take off his link for a week. LIke a blog probation or something like that. Agh i changed my pw too so now he cant mess w/my blog anymore.

Work was busy as i was on my feet all day bagging commodities. That girl came back today and man she looves to talk. She told me she really likes it @ the city and wants to sleep hurr! haha how funny! I also made this little boy cry today. Let me brief you all on some background info. Tuesdays is a movie day, they get free snack. The trick is you gotta stay for the whole movie. YOu cant juss get snack and bone out. A lot kids try to do that still and i end up catching them.

So i made that kid comes in after maybe 10 min getting snack. TElls me he ddint want ot watch the movie. I told him no he needed to stay in thurr cuz he already got snack. It then occurred to me maybe he doesnt like the movie cuz its skurry for him. So i told him he could help me bag food instead. He asks how long and i said till 5. Then he said he could only stay till 5. Then he asks wha time it is i said 330pm. He then tells me he has to go @ 4 cuz hes got baseball practice or something. I told him no he couldnt go back to the club. IF he told the club whur he was going then his parents will know whurr to get him.

About 10 min later he starts to cry and tells me something like he has to go. His parents will leave him thurr @ the club if hes not thurr by the time thurr thurr. I told him if he told the club whurr he was going it shouldnt be a problem. BUt he didnt tell the club whur he was going, so his parents wouldnt know whurr he is. SO hes still crying i said fine yo ucan leave @ 4pm. WEll 2 min he's freakin cryin again! So i said whas wrong now?! I said you can leave @ 4pm. He told me something like he misses his mom i think shes in missouri and is coming home today or something. I dont know he was kinda mumbling.

Anyway, so i met Jesus today through my boss, mr. director. Who was showing me a website on the norbortines. He had asked me if i had looked into or saw thurr religous order. So he was showing me the websites and pictures of the order. Thas the same place whurr anthony had gone to for spring break. He's so funny he goes well whatever happens to you, i juss wanna see you receiving some type of sacrament whether its matrimony or holy orders. Ha what a great boss! Very humble and Christ Centered.

It was great to be back at prayer meeting. I usually dont come up till the tail end of praise & worship. So it was nice being able to stay throughout the whole meeting. I was able to convince fr. paul to come up too! He told me he enjoyed it being he has gone in forever. Afterwards we went to mc donalds and we were talking more bout trades. Ha that would be hilarious if that was like a real ministry! I wouldnt mind trading certain people over. Yess!

Praise Report for the day:
Mark Anthony called me and told me that the UCI admin. meeting went well. Praise God so we are set for using UCI as our venue. I was really excited went i found out how errthang went well. How we now have a venue and errrthang else. Im juss excited to see errthang come together. I called charisse on my way home from work to tell her were all set to go. I really Praise God for that trip over to St. Lukes. Her and i were talking bout can you imagine if mark anthony and i had never ran into Fr. Don? Or if we waited to go to UCI. Wow...we wouldnt have the progress we have now. I praise God for leo who is using liwanags name to reserve the park.

So my comp. is really trippin, i think its has a virus oh why?! I keep getting signed off and on, which is getting real frustrating. FUnny thing is it didnt start doing that till yesterday morning. I wonder wha is going on w/the stupid thing. I wish thurr was such thing as an immaculate computer, free from any virus and dont have to worry bout getting any.


Im soooo thankful for all these blessings!

"Glorify thy name, Glorify thy name, Glorify thy name in all the earth..."im done, im out GOd bless!

"I perfer to make a mistake because i am too kind than to perform miracles without any kindness..."

So i took my first final yesterday, actually it wasnt even like a final it was taken as any other test in the class. It was kinda sad at the end of class cuz it was the last class which meant that small group that i chill with, well we wouldnt see each other for a while. Aww kawawa me!! Though it has been one fun semester in that class, well once we got to know each other. Anyway, so we were outside of class talking forever after class was over. Talking bout movies, vacations, and the topic of abortion came up.

This one guy was saying i think something like if his gf were to get pregnant now, hed tell her to have an abortion. BAsicially it was juss me and bio girl really doing all the talking. I expressed how thurrs other opitions to take care of the baby if you cant. Example, putting it up for adoption. So then bio girl(who said she was prolife)argued that then child may grow up and come after searching for their real parents. I said well its better then killing the baby. Then the situation of 'wha happens if you learn your child will be mentally disabled?' Of course i still wouldnt kill it, that child is still an image and creation of God.

SO it was argued well then the child will go through all his life people teasing him/her, it may not be able to afford the medical bills etc. ONce again thas why thurrs other methods to take curr of the baby. Like i said if you feel you cant take curr of it, or youre not ready to, then thurrs adopotion. Id rather see the baby being taken curr of at another home then being killed. Then the other situation of wha happens if its conjoined at the head? And you have to choose one or the other. I wouldnt choose, id tell the doctor to save bof of them. Let me tell you a story...

My mom was telling me how my aunt the youngest child in the family, almost died. At the time my grandma was giving birf she was bleeding a lot. The doctor had told my grandpa that he had choose which one he wanted to save. The baby or his wife...dang how couldnt anyone be given such a choice. My grandpa told the doctor you cant ask me to choose between my baby or my wife. Im not going to choose, you need to save bof of them. I dont know the details wha happened after that, but i do know that the doctor was able to save bof of them. Praise God huh?

WOrk was real chill, i like chill days at work. My mom cut these little flowers and put them in like a container for me to take to work. Now my office smells really fresh! I love that smell of freshness! Last week apparently some of the kids tore up one of the rooms during the movie. They were throwing sun flower seeds all over the floor. So i was told that they couldnt come back for a month. One of the girls came back wed. and thurs. trying to get in. I told her wha happened and said she was grounded for a month.

Yesterday the whole group of the girls come in trying to say they didnt do it. Trying ot argue w/me saying i never told them that etc. While in the meantime i have the city manager giving me the signal to kick them out. Finally im able to get them out, and yet they still DONT GET IT. They walk in the door and in the lobby area is my boss, my director, and the city manager. Ha those kids were in for a real treat. The city manager went off on them. I was like yess! cuz they really deserved it, cuz nothing ever phases them. So maybe this time it will. Those kids make my days at work difficult.

Though i did meet Jesus today, in this new little girl who came into my program. She's only 8 and it was her first time. As any concerned parent the mom tells me its her first time and blah blah. She's so cute cuz she kept talking and talking and talking. Saying how she went to adventure city for her birfday. How she had this friend that moved and they were best friends. How whurrever she went her friend went, and whurrever her friend yet, she went. So later we go on stage and were playing w/these stick puppets we made.

Thurrs like 3 of us playing on the stage, and the little girl is soo funny. We were pretending she(the litte girl) had to choose who seh wanted to live with. Her grandma and her dad or her mom and this person claiming ot be the real dad. So i was pretending to be the judge, the grandma, the cousins and the real dad. One of the other girls was the other characters. Wha was soo funny is while we were playing the little girl started to tear up! She was really acting harcore, you can hurr in her voice cuz she was getting sad. So all of a sudden i see these turrs roll down her cheeks. Im thinking wow she's really getting into this! she was veyr well behaved, i love kids like that!

Drove up to UCI tonite for our spirit games meeting. I feel like ive been thurr errday these past couple weeks. Well i was thurr wed.-friday of last week. I was a little discouraged cuz of the attendance #s. Juss cuz i was really hoping for errone to come cuz the importance of this meeting. Though i do praise God for those who did show up. Thurrs soooooooo much yet to do be done, and thurrs only 3 months left! I praise God that at least we do have a venue, but thurrs more red tape to cut through now. Today Leo and Mark Anthony have thurr meeting w/the admin. today. To find out wha we can and cannot do. Please pray that it will run smoothly and go well!

After the meeting we went out to check out the grass area whurr the games will be taken place. Were planning to have mass outside, rather than the original mass on the plaza. So in other words its gonna be 'mass on the grass.' Im hoping by next meeting which is like two weeks away, which will be our retreat and fellowship in daygo. Hopefully by that time well get all the major stuff done and out of the way. Im trying not to get stressed, but as i said thurrs juss soo many minor dettails to get worked out. Its alright i know GOd is thurr and God will provide.

We all went to in n out after the meeting and had good fellowship time. Im so blessed ot be work with side by side with so many great and talented leaders! I praise God for giving me this opportunity to serve Him in such an event that will bring all of the different catholic communities together. I praise God for allowing me to get to know all these great people from all over from glendale to oxnard to irvine and the list goes on. Wow, i wouldve never expected such a small vision could turn out to be so huge!


Please pray for the meeting w/UCI admin.

"Make me a Servant, your willing servant..."im done, im out God bless

Monday, May 24

"Do not ever allow sadness to take such a hold of your spirit that it leads you to forget the joy of the ressurrected Christ. We all long for God's paradise, but we all have the opportunity to find ourselves in it right here. We only need to be happy with Christ right and now..."

Make Me A Servant-Part II

Yesterday was the 2nd half of the workshop on servanthood. I was excited to come back and learn some more bout leadership. What it takes to be a leader, what qualities are needed to be an effective leader etc. The day before i had sat in the blessed sacrament for a while. Juss praying, something that i havent been doing too much of. So this weekend was a really spiritual boost in my prayer life.

I love Christina's talk on 'the price of leader.' I think that was my favorite on out of all them. She's a really good speaker, and i totally see Jesus through her. So as a leader ive learned there are rewards & costs. Juss as errthang else in life, we have rewards and costs. As a leader you will get praises, but the cost, you will always get judged. Im sure many of us have been down this route before. People will judge your intentions.

YOu will have power & authority, but you will also have accountability. I remember an 'anonymous tag' i had gotten bout a yurr ago. It was from the secret angel and it said something like were all accountable for our actions. Which is very true, we are held accountable for all our actions. Especially as leaders, we have high accountability from God and humans.
Something that hit me was this, from Ezekial 3:18-19.

"If say to the wicked man, you shall surely die; and you do not warn him or speak out to dissuade him from his wicked conduct so that he may live:That wicked man shall die from his sin, but i wll hold you responsible for his death. If, on the other hand, you have warned the wicked man, yet he has turned away from his wicked conduct, then he shall die for his sin, but you shall save your life."

WOw tough stuff huh? So thurr you have it, were all accountable for each other. If you fail to warn someone of thurr evil doing and you ignore the problem GOd will hold you accountable for thurr deaf. However, if you do inform them of thurr bad stuff and they die of it, then God will not hold you accountable. It really makes me more cautious of what i do and wha others do. So we've all been warned.

AS leader you will get privleges, the cost of sacrafice. YOu will be expected to sacrafices. Whats the sacrafice? Loweliness and burnt out. Burnt out meaning, youve gotten to that point whurr you dont want to serve anymore. Serving becomes an obigation and isnt fun anymore. In order to prevent burnt out, you gotta develop your prayer life. The more work you do, the more prayer is expected, YOu cant compromise.

Within judgement, you will find unpopularity, you will be critcized, and rejected. You gotta be ready to throw away your reputation. The perfect example of this is the Pope. Although many people admired him he's also said things that people didnt like. He's made strong statements in regards to a lot of issues, that people criticized him for. Yet it didnt stop him, he still continues to lead our church today.

All in all, i really praise God for such a fruitul and productive weekend. Starting it off w/praisefest, learning how to be able to 'let go, and let God.' To comepletly surredner and trust in Him. Something that ive said ive often struggle with. Then the whole LFT weekend, was juss d0pe. Basically i think galatians 6:9-10 can sum it all up, "LEt us not grow tired of doing good, for in due time we shall reap our harvest, if we do not give up. So then, while we have the opportunity, let us do good to all, but especially to those who belong to the family of faith."

Sometimes we expect to see the products of our labor right away. When we dont see it, it gets frustrated. Sometimes we may feel 'underappreciated' by our peers cuz they may not see the work of our labor. Sometimes we have drama in our lives that leads to not want to serve. Though the important to remember as St. Paul says in Galatians, we cant get tired of serving God. Continue to serve Him and in the end we will see the ultimate reward, if we dont give up. Key word, 'if.' So while GOd continues to bless us w/a new day to live, let us continue to serve each other through our works.

WIth each new day God gives us let us, 'Smile and Praise God' as my brotha chris from SOL would say. Smile and Praise God cuz He has given us another opporunity to come back to that 'Heart of Worship.' Glory to God!

On a side note... During lunch some of us were joking bout 'trading' community memberss. Wouldnt that be a trip if that stuff really took place? Ha i would be the first to trade 'frenemy' over to a sister community! joking...well maybe...haha I learned thurrs an extra 'C' in the 4 C's of nick's talk. Hahah TOnite im driving to UCI for the spirit games meeting. I feel like ive been driving all weekend.

"Whoever wishes to become great among you shall be your servant." Mark 10:43


Please pray for me i have one more final to go!

""When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears. When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears..."

Sunday, May 23

"Christ changed himself into bread of life. Changing himself into bread, he became totally at our disposal so that, having been fed by him, we would feel the strength necessary to give ourselves to others..."

Some people have asked me whurr i get my quotes from. As of lately, majority of them have been coming from the two books i bought a couple months ago. "Mother Teresa: In my own words" and "Pope John Paul II: In my own words." THough other times i get quotes from talks i go to or from TV or websites.

So if you read that last line of the quote it says, 'we would feel the strength necessary to give ourselves to others.' Giving ourselves to others, i think is the key phrase thurr. To me i think that says giving in w/o holding back. When you give yourself to Jesus, you give your whole entire being to him. You offer errthang you have and give back to him. Same thing He wants us to do w/our own brother's and sisters.

He constantly feeds us that strength through the Eucharist. Eucharist is like the vitamins, the daily vitamin C. This vitamin C, our daily bread nourishes our soul. Keeps us going strong, w/o we'd be lost. Giving ourselves to others means offering errthang we have to them. Yes, thurrs been many times whurr people have done stuff to us, hurt us, persecuted us, etc. Yet, same exact thing happened to Jesus, even at the point of his death, He still gave himself up for them. Wow you cant beat that.

Of course this isnt the easiest task in the world. Of course its a lot harder then it all seems. I can tell you ive gone through points in my life, whurr i sure didnt want to give myself to certain brothers and sisters. Im sure in the same token, ive definietly hurt people and yes they didnt want to give themselves to me anymore.And yes, sometimes it still feels like that. However, i know loving is a choice we have to make. Are we gonna sit and let anger hold us in for the rest of our entire lives? Or are we gonna surrender it all and through His grace be able to love again.

Jesus holds our hands through all these struggles to help us give in. He knows that true love hurts and true love causes pain. Jesus himself died on two wooden beams to show us His proof of love. A mother in order to give birth to her baby, has to go through sometimes hours of suffering. So if you really love one another, then it shouldn't be a problem giving yourself to them.
The first day of the LFT workshop was frutiful. I was sooo tired driving up thurr. Its always the waking up that hard to do. After that errthang else runs smoothly. It was great to see a lot of the leaders go through such an important training. It was coo also to see the various communities bring thurr members to help develop and train them to be leaders. I wish thurr was SH members who had gone.

So i spent the first purrt of the morning helping charisse label sandwhiches. She made all these various types of sandwhiches for lunch. We juss needed them to be labled so people knew wha they were getting. While doing that, had as always a nice chit chat w/charisse. Then listened to the end of darwin's talk. I love that guy, whenever i see him he always has a smile on his face. Anyway, two main points he gave in his testimony...

'Whats the point of doing anything if it doesnt glorify GOd or retain your salvation?'
SUch a strong point, why do anything if it doesnt glorify God or help get you one step closer to heaven?

Then the one that really made me say wow, is when he said, 'im called to serve everyday of my life-the good and the bad.'
I had hit a point in my life when i didnt want to serve cuz i was weighin in on my own problems. Yet i knew that what would life be like if thurr were no crosses to carry. No trials to go through. So were all called to serve God through the good times and the bad. Juss like a marriage, couples take that vow to love each other in sickness and in health in good and bad times.

Actually yesterday i learned a lot bout serving, and what makes a 'Servant's Heart.' Wha servtitude is and what servant hood is.
HOw service should be our second nature, not juss during ministry time. Which goes back to serving, errday not juss during the good times, but including the bad times.

I had a good group shurring w/my group. I had 3 people from SOL, one person from hoj, and anthony from lf. Raymond was my co faciliator, we got into a good convo bout the call to serve. Praise God for all them cuz they were inspiration to me. The best purrt of the day was the exposition, having adoration. Very exciting to see Jesus up on that altar and give him my all. So my brothers and sister if i thurr comes a time when i may feel 'tired of serving' please remind me wha service is all bout.


Please continue to pray for the LFt workshop!

"The salvation of our God..."im done, im out God bless!

Saturday, May 22



"We feed ourselves, not to please our senses, but to show our Lord that we want to work for him and with him, to live a sacrafice and reparation..."

Check out my 'new friend' i made last nite! I'll get into that later though. Praise God for a busy, but productive day. I think i was able to get errthang done i wanted to get done too. These past few days of not having skool, ive been waking up early. Yesterday i woke up @ 9am, and i went online to check mail and do the usual blog reading. Now that my blogs are not in alphabetical order, it kinda throws me off.

So i went to the brea mall and i exchanged the shirt that therese and jason gave me. It was a little too big, it was an 'xl.'Then i walked around the mall seeing wha else i could find. Yet had not luck, so i decided to call up fr. paul and see if he wanted to go to lunch. I owed him lunch for all the favors he's done for me. I picked him up and went to asia buffet. Haha he had a lot of fun thurr, he got a grip of food. Praise God cuz he told me he was staying until next summer, he figured he mine as well stay until the augustians leave. Yay!!

Afterwards, we went to st. joseph's book sturr and i got a benedictine cross! WHat was tight was i had fr. with me so once i bought it, i had him bless it. Yesss! The advantage of having a priest with you! He even bought some stuff for his niece who lives in france. Apparently they dont sell english books in france. He got this really cool comic book on the mysteries of the rosary. Its a comic book that goes through all the mysteries of the rosary even the luminious!

Then after dropping fr. paul off, i went to mass. I was the daily mass altar server for the day. In fact i had to even help fr. kevin sell his 'word among us' books afterwards. Some guy started to talk to me in tagalog after mass and im like uhh. Then ate narizae told him that i dont understand tagalog. haha But i dont think he heard her cuz he said it again later on. After that i had rushed home and then went over to UCi for 'praisefest.'

It was a lot of fun, praise God for such a strong catholic college community. Liwanag's performance was pretty tight, they were making it happening by their live action songs. THey sang the 'prince of peace' song, which i totally love!! Thas a freakin tight song, i want to use it for the spirit games praisefest after the games. Thurrs a lot of praise & worship songs i wanna use for that nite. Like that one song 'the voice of one calling in the dessert.' I love that song!

The testmonies were really meaningful and stuck w/the theme. I mostly enjoyed kristel fama's cuz her's totally fit in w/the theme. How as much as she had gone through she was still offer forgiveness and hope. She knew God had already started the healing process, the only left thing to do was completely surrender it to him. It was very touching, and yet inspiring talk bout surrender and prayer. I finally was able to see the whole entire, 'let go, let God' skit. I thought it was really good!

I had met Jesus tonite in so many different people. I actually met Jesus in joe, who came down and was standing next to me during praise & worship. Errrone who i was sitting w/left, so i ended up being by myself. So during the beginning part of the 'fatty worship' he came down and stood next to me. Then i met Jesus through gerald who juss made me laugh, which non senese 'lyrical rhymes.' I saw Jesus through fake girlfriend who checked up to see how i was doing. Lastly, i met Jesus through UCI YFC and joyce, dee, fake girlfriend, and francia who were the left over logs after the praisefest was over.

Im blessed ot be part of a great strong ministry like YFC, especially at uci. Despite the fact i may not go to the skool, i feel like that place is one my other 'home away from homes.' The people thurr are great, so full of energy and so on fire to serve God. Its a blessing to call them my friends, cuz they have helped me out in one way or another. Honestly, im sure anyone can attest that Jesus is truly present through them.

We had gone to norms afterwurdds and i made a new friend! Her name is eliza! So meet eliza errone! She sat w/tonz, randell, and i last nite at norms. We made up nicknames for each other, so we call each other 'new friend.' It was crazy so her and i went to the bafroom to wash our hands etc. The funny part was we bof came out of the bafroom at the same time!
Anyway, she's one kool kat, definetly one yfcer you want to meet.

Oh yeah i also met Jesus through 'shelly.' Shelly was nice enough to bring me to my car this past week when i was too tired to walk back. I think ive gotten a grip of excercise walking up and down the ring road. The ring road reminds me of the yellow brick road, only its not yellow and not brick. THough its a great place to get your excercise, im sure you could loose lots of weight jogging up and down that errday.

So praise God for YFC for a great praisefest. Praise God for making new friends such as eliza. Praise God for reflecting back on the past w/ol friends. Randeez, tonz, and i were remembering when we first met each other. "REmember when!" if you know me, you know i like to bring up the past and remember the good and yes the bad times. The fun part is juss being ablet to laugh bout it. Ahh yes the joy of friendship. Anyway back ot 'shelly,' despite the fact of her 'ghett0ness' and her little 'mic' attached to the vent, she's tiiiiiiiiiight! Ha tonz knows wha im saying. Thanks tonz for intro. me to shelly, i love her! Cant wait to see the new her!




Please pray for the LFT weekend workshop!

"When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears..."im done, im out God bless!

"God pays attention to our love. Not one of us is indispensable. God has the means to do all things and to do away with the work of the most capable human being. We can work until we drop. We can work excessively. If what we do is not connected to love, however, our work is useless in God's eyes..."

I like that, 'if what we do is not connected to love, however, our work is useless in God's eyes.' So we can work as many hours as we want, work has hard as we want, make as much $$ as we want BUT, if what we do is not connected to love, then its useless to God. I love mike's insight on giving w/o holding back. Thas all God asks of us, to love and to give the same way he's done for us.

I was a taught a pretty interesting lesson my coworker. She took a piece of paper and drew a circle in the middle. She then asked wha i saw i said a circle. She goes well wha bout the rest of the paper? i was like huh? She told me wha about the lines or wha bout the edges of the paper. The style of it, the color of the paper, etc. etc. The point of it was, so often we will focus on the 'big picture.' That 'big picture' is us, and the sufferings we go through. How many times have i said, 'oh kawawa me' im suffering. Instead of juss embracing that suffering and offering it up for the salvation of souls.

The true heart of a servant doesnt complain bout how many crosses they have to carry. Or how many times one has hurt them or how many times one has pushed them down. Naw, instead a true of a servant offers forgiveness, the true heart of servant gives them the other cheek to strike at it.

This is my opinion on what i think is and what i have learned a servant's heart is. So if your opinion differs from mine, then praise God. I'll be the first to say that im praying that God will give me that 'Servant's Heart.' That i can have a true heart of a servant.

Tonight was the last nite of thurs. nite SRE. I was saddened by the fact that it was over. But i rejoice in the fruits that have come out of the class. Jason, therese, melissa, and chris came by and they gave achie and i both gifts as a momentum. Then adam before he left came by and hugged both achie and i. To me thas pay day when a kid is able to accomplish something huge in their life that means the world to them. For this class it was making their 1st communionm, being able to receieve Jesus for the first time and understanding who they are receiving. Praise God!

I met Jesus last nite through errone @ yFc last nite. After SRE i went over to UCI to help w/praisefest practice. Anyway, it was so much fun!
I have the best times @ UCI. I walked in as they were having thurr 'fatty worship.' It was exactly wha this soul needed. I think my fav yfc song is 'the voice of one calling in the dessert.' Then we did 'bedsledding.' Thas freakin tight! We took the mattress of a bed, sat on it then someone pushed us down. So were 'sledding' off from the sturrs of the lecture hall! haha ITs like sledding down a hill of snow! haha

Had a great talk w/angie aka ralph aka fake girlfriend. So i met Jesus through her also. We talked bout errthang from spiritual battles, lss, friends etc. Im so blessed to have met such love filled people like her, and errone else from the UCC over @ uci. Praise God really. Then i got to ride in kfama's 'knight rider.' As i walked from engineering, down the ring road all the way down to HSLH, had a lot of time to pray and reflect. Good times, good times!

"On Jesus, through the most pure heart of Mary, I offer thee all my thoughts, works, and suffering of this day. For the intention of thy sacred heart and particualarly for the intentions of the Holy Father, the Pope."


Im excited for praisefest, Let go and Let God!

"All i know is the beating of my heart..."im done, im out GOd bless!

"Those who suffer are no burden to others, but with their suffering contribute to the salvation to all..."

Praise God for a really fantastic day! IT was filled with many different blessings. I dont want too excited juss yet, but we may have our spirit games venue! But like i said i dont want to jump the gun, so until i know fo sho whurrs its gonna be please, please continue to pray for the confirmation of this venue.

So the past couple days ive been having these really good, meaningful, and yet deep convos with toni. She's got some interests perspectives on certain topics. Toni is tight, whenever i see her, i see the face of Jesus shinning so bright. She's got the best sense of humor and some of the things she says are so freakin funny that i cant stop laughing. On top of all that, she's extremly friendly and easy to get along with. Always helping me out w/whatever i need. Man this sounds like a frienster testimony. haha

I was reading my kids final essays last nite and i had them write a one page essay on the following points:
-What have they learn in regards to their faith this year
-How has this year either helped/or not helped their spiritual growth
-How will they be Jesus to thurr own brothers and sisters over the summer.
-How are they going to keep the fire burning alive within them between now and next fall.
-WHat do they want to learn more about next yurr
-What have they learned in regards to love and relationships.
Thurrs one more i know...its a blurr to me though haa

ANyway, so as i was reading them i was really touched. In fact i was inspired to see how much they have accomplished this year. Praise God for youf alpha cuz the fruits thae came out of it were juss plentyfold. Youf alpha really helped a lot of them understand and allowed them to grow in their faith. Some of the kids drew out the 'triangle relationship' theory on his paper. Wow i thought was pretty d0pe cuz we havent touched on that since oct. One of the girls said she learned that God could be calling us to a religous vocation.

These kids are so eager to learn and so hungry to learn more bout the faith its amazing. GOsh thurr faith will help me curry those crosses and to trust more when i doubt. You can honestly learn a lot from being with them. AS i said im sad that the yurr is over, but im praying that a lot of them will come to SH and then be purrt of SH for at least the summer. That would be soo cool!

Im getting attached to the new cetner. I like the kids thurr cuz they more well behaved. I gues they were lookign for me when the mobile rec program opened yesterday. When i got thurr theyre like whurr were you?! Youre late! haha Theyre all good kids juss need some place to be to keep them out of trouble. They help out too so thas cool. It makes my day go a lot smoother.

Went to praisefest practice tonite and it was fun. Im excited to see the outcome of it this friday. Its gonna be bangin inside the SSLH this fri evening! Im blessed to be a part of such a hardworking community like yfc UCI. Great people who are filled w/the spirit! I like that song that we sang tonite, something bout the voice within. It has a tight beat to it, i think yooull like it too once you hurr it. Had the best excercise this evening as i walked all the way down ring road. I purrked at the engineernig purrking and walked from thurr to HIB. Wow that was a long walk! Praise God cuz it was good reflection time.

OKay thas all im too tired...


Please continue to pray for SG venue!

"I pour out my worship to you, for your redeeming love..."im done, im out God bless!

Wednesday, May 19



"Genuine love...is demanding. But its beauty lies precisely in the demands it makes. Only those able to make demands on themselves in the name of love can demand love from others..."

Genuine love equals suffering, trials, hardships, pains, and a lot of growing. God allows such suffering to help us grow closer to Him. I mean out of love one man endured so much pain, to be accused of something he did not do and pay the price is love and deep humility. AS we suffer ourselves, we share in a part of his pain.

During my period in exile, a lot of thinking time and praying time had taken place. After shurring w/my some what of a spiritual director at the time errthang had taken place, he advised me. He advised that perhaps it maybe in my best interest to take a break from the group or maybe look into leaving the group. When i heard leave the group, my heart sank. I thought, 'i cant leave SH!' SH is like my home away from home. Ive always wanted church friends and now i have them i cant leave them.

As ive said before i hated that cross i had to carry. It was freakin heavy and i was so ready to drop it. But it was a healing process. It was a calling to show and be love unconditionally. Ill never forget that one nite, with a really good friend who i had hurt was able to forgive me. The best in all of this is by this great persons example to be love, he was able to get others to let go of the hurt and learn to forgive. To me my friends, thas the fruit of a great friendship.

Great friendships will always be tested, through trial and suffering. The friendships that overcome those rought waves through God's grace are a product of an awesome friendship. SH has gone through a lot within these past couple yurrs. Like jaymee said, individually and collectively, the community has gone through a lot. Although that past may have been filled with anger, hate, resentment etc. yet the important is were all still hurr today. We can stand in the same room together and praise God together and thats whas d0pe.

To truly have a Servant's Heart is praising God through errthang He may throw at you. To praise Him for the suffering, to praise Him for the joy, to praise Him in all that you do. A heart of a servant does not look out for it's own self interests, but for the interests of others. A heart of a servant doesnt juss serve during ministry time, but serves errmoment of its life. Serving God in all that it does is it's prayer.

Im saddened by the fact confirmation is now over. Aww kawawa me!! I wish we had more time in class together. But yet i Praise God that they were giving the opportunity to grow through youf alpha. For a lot of my students, youf alpha was unforgettable experience. I think too for a lot of them it developed their faith to trust and understand more. Im soo blessed to have each and errone of them in my class. Ive been given a opportunity that i will never forget.

Each of them are so funy and yet so special. With all kids they have thurr moments. Yes a lot of times i was hella frustrated cuz they wouldnt listen or wouldnt stop talking. IM sure some of the quiet kids probably felt i couldnt control the class. Yes thurr was times whurr i felt like that. Never the less, i praise God for each and errone of them. This has gotten to be the best yurr yet so furr!

Im excited to see what God has in store for us next yurr. I can honestly say ive gotten to know a lot of them on a more personal level. Sheesh i even talk to them online or they'll call me for prayer requests. I want to be Jesus to each and errone of them. I really do ahve the best class!

Thurrs joseph, who i'll never forget gave up going to his friends purrty to go to a confession purrty. His jokes so corny, yet he's grown up so much. Then jerel a new one this yurr, very OA always messing around but is so funny. He told me last tues. Mr. Fish i dont like your grading scale. Charles, he's quiet but is the opposite of jerel, ha he listens. Him, jerel, and mitch are like the 3 stooges, they always sit together.

Josh, another quiet one, but has slowly come out of his shell. 'El Bravo' as he writes on his papers haha or 'mitch.' This kid has one of the deepest voices i know. He was in my youf alpha group, i call him drummer boy cuz he's always using my pencils to bang on the desk. When i looked at the attendace roster i found out he lives right next to my work. We would talk online, until he blocked me...ha

Miranda, one beautiful soul who wasnt sure at first whether she wanted to be confirmed catholic. Was leaning torwards the lutheran church, but ended up changing her mind and decided to want to be confirmed catholic! praise God you cant beat that! Matt, a good kid he tries to stay away from hanging w/the talkative kids in class. Stephanie, one who came late in the yurr to class. I felt bad cuz i was able to figure out exactly when she came into class, so i was never able to make an accurate progress report for her.

Melissa, she was very quiet thiss yurr. Last yurr she talked a lot, but this yurr was always paying attention. Marijo, a soul that was very touched by youf alpha. One that helped her establish a deeper prayer life and deeper calling to try to be like Christ. Justin i always like his writing cuz its slanted but very nice and neat. He went to youf rally and im glad he came. I had gone to his house one thurs. after SRe was over. Ive had his brother in my class way back.

Carl,he also went to youf rally and ive gotten to know him more through it. Very studious doing his best to turn all his work. Then marvin, a cross that i had to curry throughout this yurr. Soo hungry for confession that he would always ask that i bring a priest to class so he can get ot confession. Praise God! Paul, his cousin, i saw him two weeks ago walking on knott towards aela's house. I passed by a few times to make sure it was him and sure enough it was. I stopped him to see whurr he was going and to make sure he was staying out of trouble. I took the kid home cuz it was too hot to walk.

Artie, this kid has grown up a lot. When i saw him at the beginning of the yurr he got tall! So willing to learn bout the faith, always asking questions, which was good. Ashley, anotha new student this yurr though very bright. She explained how this yurr was her fav yurr out of all her yurrs in SRE. awww!
Jett, the guy who erryurr we assign him to bring the lumpia for our end of the yurr potluck. Said to me last week if i didnt give him at least a 'C' to pass him he wasnt gonna tell his mom to cook it. Ha his mom told me tonite when she picked him that he barely told him last nite! haah

Christina known as ate nariza's cousin. Always frustrated w/me cuz id make the class stay after for talking to much. Very quiet in class but yet so impatient by the behavior of her classmates. I always teased her saying she wasnt gonna pass! haha Kathryn, another new student this yurr. I loved reading her writings, she's a very bright girl. Errtime shed write in her journal they were so deep. I could totally see her someday as a sister.

Anthony, he's grown up a lot this yurr. JUss like all of them, he's learned how to be closer to Jesus. Always trying to do the best he can to turn in his work. Good kid always greets me when he sees me @ church, same w/his family. Eric was a new eddition to my class this yurr. I think ive gotten to know his mom more than ive known him. He's very quiet, but is always smiling. His mom goes to cypress too and in fact her class is next door to my bio class. Its funny cuz during break we'd end up talking! haha

Deanna, she told me today how fred invited her to pentecost picnic and now talks to her online. She's really come out of her shell this yurr. Veyr talkative and outgoing, soo willing to know more bout her faith. I think youf rally was huge moviation for her. Kenneth, i remember at the beginning of the yurr i was struggling to get him back in my class. Praise God! His mom told me when she registered him late at the beginning of the yurr how he was so eager to come back. Wow praise God!

Justin P. oh man was a huge cross to curry last yurr for me. Though this yurr he's really matured. I mean gosh hardly did i ever have to ask him to be quiet or threaten to talk to his mom. I was touched tonite cuz he gave me this brown scapular as a present. I love his family, they remind me of 7th heaven. They always sit behind us @ 915am
mass. Mariella, seems to ahve gotten along real well w/kenneth. The two of them were always talking to each other at the back row of class.

Wow that was a lot...so when they walked into class. I put CONFIRMATION I-FINAL EXAM. They were like wha?! Final?! They were to write one full page essay on 7 different questions i put on the board. Im excited to read them! Then our potluck inside the hall was d0pe. My class always has the best potlucks cuz i have tons of filipino students. CHeck it, we had 2 boxes of pizza, chips, cookies, soda, ravioli, taquitos, salsa, lechon, fried rice, fried chicken. I thought wed have tons of left overs, apparently not! haha


Praise God for a great skool yurr!

"I know that we'll meet again,fate has a place and time..." im done, im out GOd bless

Tuesday, May 18

"Everyday at communion time, i communicate two of my feelings to Jesus. One is gratefulness, because he has helped me to persevere until today. The other is a request: teach me to pray..."

I was disturbed today at work as i was chillin w/some of the kids at the new center. So we were talking and they were telling me about this one girl they know. She's only 12 and has already lost her virginity. Wow how sad is that. The girls bf is in jail for violating his probation, the guys 18. So they were telling me that you know they didnt want to make the same mistake she did. How she was stupid and shes probably gonna end up dropping out of skool. I told them that they were smart to think like that and they should learn from that girl's mistakes.

So i thought well thas good they see this fmro their peers and are turned off by it. Hopefully this will inspire them to do well in skool and make the right decisions. Then i was thinking thas why the youf are so messed up now a days cuz all they think bout is pleasuring their bodies. Their minds are so filterd by the things they see and hurr on tv,music, etc. Im sure it doesnt help that the parents dont take responsibility for their children. Ahh So that why we continually ask for the intercession of our blessed mother to keep them chaste and safe.

Which brings me to i guess my thoughts on relationships. That seems to be the topic of errone's blog this week. YOu know back in wha october it was i had big lesson on love & relationships w/my class. We talked bout the different type of relationships, and what to look for in a particular person. Though the only i do regret is not focusing on the 'religous' vocation aspect on love. Oh well something to cover more into detail next year.

Although i myself have never been in relationship before, ive taken notice on friends who have various types of relationships. Hurr let me describe some of the different types...

The 'envious' couple-The couple who tries hurdd to match thurr relationship to another couples. For example, you have a couple A, and this is the couple that errone thinks is perfect for each other. People see them and they're like aww they have the best relationship, i bet! So couple B, being a little envious tries to match thurr relationship juss like it.

The Bickersons-Meet the bickersons, the quibble over errthang down to wha size movie popcurrn to get. ERrtime you get together w/this couple all you see them do is argue, argue, argue, great!

Romeo & Juliet...10 yurrs later-This is the couple that errone voted in HS most likely to get murried. And yes that they did! This is the couple who know has kids, and yet errtime you go thurr house its a freakin mess! Dirty dishes in the sink and then worse of all they got major PDA issues! Theyre juss all ova each other like peanut butter on toast!

The Partiers-This is the type of couple who loves to spend $$. They cant stand juss sitting still for nothing! They love to go out and drink, dance, whatever as long as the nite doesnt consist in staying at home. You can cross out not asking them to come over for dinner and a movie.

The typical TV show sitcom-Yes those are the couples that are always portrayed on TV. Like roseanne, married w/children etc. He works and pays the bills, she's the homemaker do nothing at home all day. Cooks, cleans etc.

To me, one couldve had a bf or gf and yet still be unexperienced. So i disagree w/robbys def. of never having a bf or gf. Ive seen unexperienced couples who were too independent, they had that umm i think whas called the 'H's frame relationship. Too far apart from each other. You gotta think too, a person who's had a bf/gf can be "labeled" as "inexperienced" if theyve never reached a certain stage of intimacy.

For example, thurr could be a couple who has had previous relationships in the past. Lets say theyve been together for quite sometime, but yet has never kissed passionately or made out etc. For this reason their relationships is about bringing each other to holiness. Does this label them as unexperienced?

In the end, i think its juss what errones definition of what 'experienced' and 'inexperienced' is. Errone is going ot have a whole different aspect and opinion on what the word means. Its like one of those things, that you cant have a definite definition for. One of those things whurr it cant be juss black or white.

One thing bout relationships ive learned is that its growing process. Its about learning from each other and complimenting each other. Bringing something into that relatioships. If one person is doing all the work its not going to work obviously. Myself, i wouldnt want someone whos been in tons of different relationships and wants to rush right into errthang. Id much rather perfer someone who wants to walk that road together hand in hand. The same way a mom walks w/her child through the market.

I mean gosh ive heard bout relationships like bio girl who's juss soo dependent on her bf. While her bf wraps her around his finger and treats her as a slave. Then we have this other friend of mine who was recently seeing this guy for a bit. When the girl told her she's always wanted to look into the religous vocation, he got all emo and pshyco on her saying she cant leave him etc. Wow thas crazy! Then ive known a couple whos foundation was Christ, yet i guess they took the wrong turn some whurr and it turned into lust.

Whatever vocation God chooses for you, i pray that you will embrace it and love it to the fullest!


Happy Birfday Pope John Paul II!!!

"Prayer is powerful beyond limits when we turn to the Immaculata who is queen even of God's heart."

I sit thurr in the lab @ skool killing time before my 10am class. I figured its pointless to go home for 45 min. then travel back to skool. So thurrfore it was either read confirmation papers or blog for 45 min. I chose to blog instead, as you can see. Errone in hurr is preping for the last weeks of the semester, finishing thurr papers and wha not. PRaise God i dont have that problem this semester. ANyway, i take it my last entry or the intro. of my last entry hit a nerve. Grrrrrrreat! I was juss keepin' it real. If your opinion differs then mine, well great! You are certainly entitled to your own thoughts and perspectives on things. I think its extremely stupid, for someone to post a comment and yet not even leave thur name. Cmon now if you got something to say, then be real with me and leave your name. Its more cowardly to critcize something ive said and then not leave who you are. Juss keep it
real...honestly hurr.


Okay, well now that thas out of my system its been one long, tiring weekend. But you know what praise God He got me through it. All last week i was dreading for the weekend to come cuz i knew it was going ot be long. THough at least this pay ill have some $$ to put away for hawaii! I cant believe how fast its going to be coming up, only 2 more months. Im excited, im excited cuz i need a vacation. Vacation all i ever wanted, vacation have to get away... Ha wha song is that from? So i guess let's recap on the weekend.

Friday-
I had to be at work by 9am, so thas whurr i was from 9am-3pm. We spent the whole morning and afternoon, cleaning and decorating. I had decorated some bulletin boards inside whurr the comp. room is. I was suppose to get off @ 12pm but we ended up staying till 3pm. What sucks is that those extra 3 hrs wont be on this pay period but on the next one. oh why?! Came home and i took a nap till 6pm. I was able to accomplish my goal for the week by going to daily mass all week. Praise God cuz let me tell you it felt soo great to be back, to be receiving my daily bread. After mass went home to get some stuff ready for core group meeting.

I was talking to heif for a while, im so grateful for her cuz she's such a great person. Really she is! One of the things that was holding me from accepting the stanton job at first was cuz i loved working w/her. I wasnt sure wha the friendship would be like if we stopped working together. I was afraid in a sense we would loose touch and blah blah. But Praise God cuz that didnt happen, we still continue to talk and errtime we talk its juss like ol times. I think a great friend is one whurr no matter how long its been since youve last talked to each other, you can always pick up whurr you left off.

So we went to happy house for core group meeting. Im feelin restaraunt style core group meetings! Theyre fun! LSS is less then a month away, wow! Im excited for that, im excited for a lot of different things coming up this summer. So anyway, happy house is a chinese restaraunt, it was my first time thurr. You know what was sick though?! They brought out some fried chicken and they brought out on the plate the head of the chicken. I was bout to throw up when i saw that, it almost killed my appeitite. After core some of us attempted to go to guppy house, but it was jam packed. Figures on a friday nite. So we ended up juss going to the velasco dome to watch the best of will ferrell. I ended up going home @ like 130 knowing i had to be up by 5am the next day.

Saturday-
I woke up @ 5am pushing my turrd body out of bed to make it to work on time. The mornining went by fast. My coworker and i were in charge of the van shuttles. Being thurr isnt really purking at the new community center, people were suppose to purk @ st. polycarp. So hurr im driving back and forth these huuge 15 seater vans. I was skurred as heck cuz i didnt want to hit anything or get into anytype of accident. I made it through the day though! Praise God. What was nice bout the day was el juego and jennif came by to help out. It was great seeing jennif, i miss seeing her happy smile at prayer meeting. Im really feein her new hurrstyle too! Thas like the type of hurrstyle i like in girls. Anyway, jennif's smile is contagious, when you see it you cant help but to feel the warmth of God's love embracing you.

Afterwurdd, i went shopping w/achie, aela, el juego, and nariza. I was trying to look for something to whurr for 1st communion on sunday. I found this kenneth cole blue dress shirt, but then last min. i decided to juss whurr something in my closet already. THough i regret not buying it now. Then el juego and i walked around the bPd, ate downsturrs cuz we were starving like marvin. Ran into two ol hs friends, one whom i had gone to elementary all the way up to finishing HS with. He juss graduated from CSUF with a BS in political science, and now doesnt even know wha he's going to do with his degree. i was suprised to see that him and his girlfriend whurr still together. Juss cuz i know how HS relationships are.

Came home and i was extremely exhausted after a long hot day. I took a nap then i woke up to eat. I was watching the laker game on and off, then i ended up falling asleep watching the 4th qtr. Woke up to hurring my mom yelling and screaming that they won. That was my cue to get up and get ready for the uprm meeting @ fridays. The meeting went well, at least in my opinion. All thas left to say is praise God, thank you Lord. Came home at 2am then didnt even get to sleep till 320am that morning.

Sunday-
I was tempted to go back to the sturr and get that dress shirt, i was almost gonna get the day before. But i knew the sturr didnt open till 11am and i couldnt be late for my kids so i decided to be satisfied w/wha i had. Got all dressed up and ready to go cuz i woke up excited. Why? Achie's and i's class was making thurr first holy communion! I walked in the SRE office and saw our kids dressed up and ready to go. I asked them how they were doing, and they told me they were nervous. We practiced a few times before it was time to go.

As they walked down the asile to the altar i saw them smiling. Achie and i were soo excited for them. We were soo proud cuz the kids were soo good, so well behaved, and very reverent too! Praise God! Gosh even the parents were reverent by not taking pictures during the mass. Usually its the parents who have the hardest time behaving and following directions. We made their day special by Fr. giving them communion before anyone else in the congregation. So as they walked up one by one to the altar i got emo. In fact achie told me she was crying. I got emo cuz achie and i had these kids for the past two yurrs. To watch these tiny seeds sprout into beautiful roses is a feeling that you cant even describe. IM sure banne knows wha im talking bout.

The best part was as they walked up to that altar they were excited. They were excited cuz they knew who they were going ot be receiving for the first time. They were excited cuz they were about to receive Jesus, body, blood, soul, and divinity for the very first time in thurr lives. They were excited cuz they knew how important this was to receive the true presence of Jesus in the Eucharist.

After mass was over we went into the hall and the girls were funny. The took off their nylons and some even took off their shoes ha. Anyway, thurr parents came in and you shouldve seen the look on these parents' face. They were so happy and so excited for their children. Flashes from cameras were coming from all directions. After it was over, i said, 'Good job ms. jhen.' She smiled and said, 'good job mr. jason.' I gotta give my gratitude for fred and el juego who came out and supported these youngsters. Therese went to jeanne and fred's class inviting them to her 1st communion. So im sure it meant a lot to her to see fred and el juego thurr.

Came home, ate lunch and then took it nap. Afterwards went to el blocko w/el juego and fred. I was inside borders and they had tons of great books! Thurrs one i wanted to almost gonna buy but then i changed my mind. However, i found a great book by Mother Teresa called 'Trusting for God.' A daily meditation devotional book. Great stuff! I had a caramel apple last nite too w/fred and el juego. It was good i havent had one of those in forever. Ran into ryan at his work last nite. We were able to somewha catch up. He told me may get this job working @ t-mobile. I guess his friends works thurr and is making $1500 errtwo weeks of off commission. Whoa!

Okay ths it for now, until next time enjoy your day!


Yay im sponsor of the week on fred's blog...finally!

"We on fire - up in here/It's burning hot, we on fire..."im done, im out God bless!

"God can use our weakness as easily as our strength in order to accomplish His will..."

Okay im going w/jaymee on that issue of 'friends only,' on the ljs. Thas gay in my opinion, i mean honestly, if you only want your 'friends' to know certain things that are going one, then why not juss call them up and tell them? Why does it take a online journal to tell them whas going on. Or why not juss tell them when you see them. I guess you must really have a lot to hide if you have 'friends only' lj. Yah, so i may get heat for speaking so strongly on the issue, but its true. Or if your life is that darn private thas why they made the ol skool journals, paper and pen! Anyway, thas my opinion!

I took my maf test and my mind went totally blank on certain purts. I hate when that happens and i was restudying the material before class. In fact i was planning on being a little late to class so i could study a little bit more. THough i ended up going on time. Agh! i hate when the things you study for become a blurr when it comes to the real thing! oh why?!

Work was real busy, weve been really prepapring for the grand opening of the new "Stanton COmmunity Services Center." I really cant wait until the event is over. Geez its been taking up a lot of time lately. So im working pretty much all day on saturday, well from 6am to 3pm. Oh why?! At least SH will be thurr purry of the time so that'll be cool. These next few weekends are going ot be majorly busy.

Kids making their 1st communion this sunday. Im excited for them cuz theyve been preparing for this for a while. We went to the church and were practicing. Fr. Brennan quizzed them asking them why is sunday so important for them. They told him cuz theyre going to be receiving Jesus-the true presence. Praise God that they rememeber, ach and i told them if theyre going to take one at least one thing from class take away that they understand Jesus' true presence in the Eucharist.

Afterwurrds el juego, fred, and i headed over to albertacos for some good ol mexican food. Its been forever sinec ive had albertacos. WE wanted to try and get into nickel nickel but the place was closed. The admission price for that place has gone up! It use to be like $2, now its like $3 to get in! Tht place is small too and thurrs only so much you can do before you get bored. So being it was closed we were standing outside talking bout some memorable SH moments.

Okay well thas it, im going to sleep now. I cant wait to come home already and take a nap! haha

"There is no room in the world for selfishness. It destroys the meaning of life; its destroys the meaning of love; it reduces the human person to a subhuman level..."

Wow check out this new layout! I felt out of place w/errone changing to 'blogger xp,' so i had to join in. I love this new look, its very colorful and bright! Especially the tagboard and yes one of my blog goals have become accomplished. One of my blog dreams was to split up all my links according to their community. Makes it a lot easier for people to read and now that dream has become a reality! haha

It cost me an 'arm and a leg' to get this new blog layout done. I better give burr his 'big up's before he turrs me apurrt. So for those who are curious who put this blog template together it was burr. Agh! thurr i gave him his big ups so he should be happy now.

I was soo turrd today and i ended up leaving work early cuz i didnt feel too well. Its coo how you make friends w/people in your class that look out for you. Like say if you miss class then they'll pick up a paper for you or whatever. ANyway, i find out i have one more bio class before the final. Oh why!? So i had to go and get 2 more quiz strip scantrons this morning. Agh! i hate unorganization, really i do throws off my whole schedule.

I was deepy appauld by the actions of the iraqis in behading of michael berg. Wow after watching the video clip i had a sudden sense of anger and rage. It was like you wish their country would juss blow up! But you know thas not the way to go and it wont solve things. This war is really getting out of hand juss as well as this whole bush administration. Its jacked up in my opinion. Anyway, pray for the soul of michael berg and may God bring healing and comfort to their family.

After mass @ sPc, i went to the westside of long beach to visit sly. It was a last min. decision but it was fun. Their focus tonite was the role of the blessed mother. I may be giving a testimony in regards to leadership for them on june 5th. We went to fastastic's burger and had a funny convo bout mannerism's. They said mine was 'not saying bye' on the phone! haha Which reminds me on mon. bio girl said the same thing to me, 'you dont say bye on the phone!' haha ooops! From fantastic's we drove up to signal hill to the sturrbucks thurr for more talk and chill.

"Apart from the cross there is no other ladder by which we may get to heaven."

As many of you may or may not know, one of my many fav scripture verses comes from 2 cor 12:8-10, "Three times i begged Lord about this, that it might leave me, but he said to me, 'my grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness.' I will rather boast most gladly of my weaknesses, in order that the power of Christ may dwell in me. Therefore, i am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and constraints for the sake of CHrist, for when i am weak, then i am strong."

Well this verse goes especially out to a good friend of mine, who sometimes feels as if no one can relate to what they're going through. OR how this person sometimes feels as if he's walking that journey alone in the faith. Yeah im sure we all know how that can go. I especially have gone through that saga in my own personal journey. Hence, exile...which last fri marked the 1 yurr anniversary whurr i was out of 'exile.' Hopefully if i remember ill get into that later.

Point im trying to make we have those up and down days. Some days can be a lot more difficult than others. Yet as a christian, life is no exception, the days become even more difficult. As much as we may hate to realize it, many people have put us 'christians' on pedestals. Expecting that we have to excercise the fruits of the holy spirit 24/7. Im sure weve all experinced this some point in our lives, people 'judging' our walks or who we 'are.' And that itself can be a real challenge.

THough i must say i had read an email juss recently and it said, "One of the greatest gifts we receive when we read the Bible, beyond the grace you get for reading and praying the Word of God, is a more intimate understanding and appreciation for Jesus’ humanity."

Thus making it easier often times for us to embrace Jesus' divinity more than His humanity. For me personally, thurr are many times whurr i forget about Jesus being human as well as divine. THough when i end up forgetting this purt of Jesus being human, i grow angry cuz my life may not going the way 'I' want it to. Wha i fail to realize though is that thurr isnt a feeling I can experience that Jesus cant relate to or understand.

Check it, if you go through the bible thurr are tons of experiences Jesus had gone through in His life that we go through often times today.I mean if you ask Him if he's gone through all this He'll say 'Yes i know what it is like.'

Leave home and live on your own? Mt 4:13
Have one of your best friends die? Jn 11:32-33
To be homeless? Mt 8:20
To be hungry? Mt 4:2
Be despised in your own hometown? Lk 4:29
To go without sleep? Mk 4:39, Mk 14:41
To be tempted? Mk 1:13
Be betrayed by one of your closest friends? Lk 22:48
To weep bitterly? Jn 11:35
Have people who don’t know you want you dead? Jn 8:59
To be tortured? Jn 19:1
Have your best friend abandon you and even deny knowing you? Mt 26:72
Take the blame for something you didn’t do? Mk 14:61

The point is, thurr isnt anything we havent gone through that Jesus hasnt gone through himself. THEREFORE, we can trust that He knows our pains and struggles and know what we exactly need in life. Jesus experienced and took part in it all-sufferings, joys, trials, messes, happiness etc.

If you re-read this verse St. Paul is so hopeful(keyword HOPE)cuz he put his trust in the Lord understanding that Jesus knew wha errthang St. Paul was going through was all bout. Paul took great comfort in the fact that everything he was going through, as difficult as it was, glorified God and that the weaker and humbler he was, the stronger God would be in Him. Same exact this goes for ourselves too. Especially to you my friend(the one who this portion of the blog is dedicated to.)

We shouldnt tell the Lord that He doesn't know wha were going through cuz He went through it already. The thing we should be doing is opening ourselves and be able to shurr all these feelings and emotions to the Lord in prayer. If the Lord was thurr for Paul, He will be thurr for you also, just trust in Him.

Exactly, what im learning slowly in regards to the spirit games set back...i know God will show us why this is all happening. Praise God.

Funny story i heard at work today. My coworker was telling me that one of the seniors who came in for lunch today shurred her weekend. So the senior went to take a train ride, well thurr was something wrong w/the train so that had a stop over delay some place. Well at the stop over she saw these young girls drinking somethign that looked 'refreshing' to the senior. SO the lady walks up and asks the girls wha they were drinking. The girls kinda looked at hte lady strangely and said, 'umm i dont think you wanna know.' BUt the senior was really curious cuz it looked good.

Well they told it was a long island ice tea. Ha the senior i think not knowing exactly wha an Long Island Ice tea was, went up to the bar and asked for one. Haha In fact in the end she ended up downing 2 glasses of Long Island Ice Tea! So my coworker asked her, 'well didnt you feel sick or anything afterwards.' The lady told her she didnt feel too well and ended up falling asleep on the train all the way to her stop. Haha i thought that was funny.

I met Jesus today in my confirmation class. I had taken them up to prayer meeting. This was the first time this yurr theyve been up thurr. Ever since ive had my kids, ive been slowly trying to intro. to the charasmatic movt. Each yurr its like a tradition we go upsturrs to prayer meeting. The kids love it too cuz they'll end up asking if we can go back. In fact the very first yurr i had my class, i brought up to prayer meeting and thas how i was able ot get to know the community.

So i think this time it was more impactful for them after going through youf alpha and some of them coming to youf rally. For some of the class it was their first time up thurr. Praise God cuz they said it was beautiful. In fact one girl said she liked it better than youf alpha cuz errone was participating and errthang. She said it was deeper than youf alpha. Praise God that a conviction was sent into thurr hearts. Im praying that they'll return on their own after SRE is over.

Next week is our end of yurr purrty too. Its tradition that one of my kids brings lumpia. So i passed around a sign up sheet to sign up for either main dish, dessert, drinks, or utensils. Well majority of the kids signed up for the easy stuff like chips, cookies, drinks etc. Hardly anyone signed up to bring the main dish. Although one of my kids is supposedly gonna bring 'lechon.' Yes, im talking bout the whole pig. All i gotta do is bring the fruit. Yess! I cant wait, ha hopefully he comes through w/it. I think ill remind him before class next tues.

AS we end this skool yurr im always sad cuz i dont get to really see the kids in the summer. THough hopefully this yurr itll be different. I pray that they'll come to LSS, experience the holy spirit and want ot get involved w/SH. Im really excited for next yurr though as we prepare together as a class for their confirmation. Gosh, for some of the kids it'll be thurr 4th yurr with me. Praise God for their committment and their parents to guide them as they prepare for the sacrament.

We were watching this really funny show @ aela's called 'u da man.' It was on TFC and its like an american idol, except these are all young filipino guys. It was pretty funny, even though i didnt understand wha they were saying half the time. Okay, this entry is long enough. Don't forget to play blog trivia and please continue to pray for me. Im really praying for a smooth week, even though im working all week long.


Lord let us empty ourselves, so that we may be filled with You.

"Your grace is sufficient for me, eternally yours..."im done, im out God bless!

"Hateful is the power, and pitiable is the life, of those who wish to be feared rather than to be loved..."

I had added some new links to the blog today, go and check them out! I've got a long week ahead of me, so i ask for your prayers that God will carry me through it. I really wish i didnt have to work this saturday, agh! Kills bof my friday and saturday, ahh oh well.
In other news, i was quite perturbed by the president's praise to the secretary of defense. I honestly feel that rumsfeld should step down. He is fully responsible for the actions that have taken place by his soliders. Agh! Thas why i cant stand this administration!

Went to class this morning but i so wanted to sleep in. YOu know that feeling whurr youre juss so relaxed that you juss dont want to go anywhurr else. But being i had a quiz i had to go to class. After maf was over bio girl called me asking me whur i was. So i was on my way home when her and my other classmate wanted to go to eat. I ended up going back to skool and we went to eat carl's jr. We had interesting convo, turns out she was made @ God at one point of her life. Her grandfather died so she blammed God for his deaf.

Then she told us that her bf used her phone to text errone whos names were guys not to call her @ that # anymore. Ha well me thinking it was her and not thinking anything of it deleted her # from my phone. Ha so then i had to put it back cuz it wasnt actually her. So while we were in lab that was oh so boring. She showed us this letter that her bf wrote a couple weeks ago. He was like ohh how i love you so much and im blessed to have such a great girlfriend blah blah. Errthang he said in thurr was such bs.

I didnt work long but it seemed like i did. BEing my mom has no quilting class for the next two weeks, i dont gotta work evening shifts on mondays! yay! The kids were really getting on my nerves today. They always gotta front as if theyre soo sheltered. Then they dont like to clean up their mess when theyre done. So i have to go hunt them down to make sure that they come back. Ahh these kids are totally crosses in my life...sometimes they get real heavy too.

After work i went to sPc for mass. Goal for the next two weeks is to go to daily mass and pray the rosary for the intentions of the spirit games. Today was the feast day of blessed damien molcahi the guy who went to live w/the leppers. Fr. Andrew talked bout in his homily bout how you gotta sometimes go to the gates of hell to save sinners. THough making sure that you dont stay down thurr. Ran into reirich, arisa, and paul kim thur. I didnt get a chance to talk to paul and invite him to LSS. Its a great feeling to come back to daily mass.

I was talking to mike TM and he found this really d0pe catholic website called www.nextwavefaithful.com
Its a really d0pe website, that one and phatmass.com is a d0pe one too. I like the tshirt deigns they have for phatmass, theyre really creative.. So big ups to mike fo that. Its cool when someone shurrs w/you something cool.

I must thank the burr for helping me w/some hw i had to do. I had emailed him some of the problems i was stuck on and he totally worked them out w/a full on explaination and errthang. Then he was thurr to give me some
'redirection' on the current spirit games situation. So thank you burr!! Agh you need to post pic on your other blog, its already been a week! agh!

For those of you who use blogger youve taken notice of the new changes. I like the new layout its has an 'xp' effect to it. Its more colorful and has more flava. Its pretty simple to use and to get around to. Plus they have some new templates.

Since no one seemed interested in my blog trivia i guess that question was a bit 'too much' for errone. So i shall come up with a new one. Yes the prize will still stand, the whole 2 free tickets to the movies. ALright so hurr's the question...

In the movie 'The debut'(one of my fav movies!)what was the name of the church whurr they were having ben's sister's debut?

The first one to answer the question with the correct name will win a prize. The trivia ends 11:59pm Tuesday evening. The winner will be announced on Wednesday's blog! You may answer as many times as you want! Good luck and have fun playing! Remember the winner will receive 2 free tickets to the movie!


I wanna go to vegas!!

"Every moment without you, it seems like eternity..."

Monday, May 10

"Love can overcome great obstacles, and God's love can totally transform the world..."

Today was a rather interesting day. I wanted to sleep in cuz i felt so relaxed in bed. But being it was mother's day i went to mass w/the fam bam tribe. Saw fr. paul as he was doing the 8am mass. I was listening to the parishoners talk to him, and they really like him. Too bad he cant be a permanent augustitian. Anyway, so fr. brennan's homily focused on 'agape.' The christian type of love, God's love. The type of love he said that sounds so easy, yet so hard. Good homily!

Dropped off some mother's day gifts @ a family friends. Then went to my grandmas to have lunch thurr. Yum! an abduance of all kinds of food from korean bbq to popeyes chicken, squid. Ahh! yes it was good! Highlight of my day was when my aunt led the prayer. She's falling away catholic now protestant. Well at the end of her prayer, she acknowledged the Blessed Mother. She even honored her and asked her to continue to be an image and reflection to all the otehr mothers. Then the best purrrt was she ended with a 'Hail Mary.' Which was real suprising cuz when i would lead grace before id ask her for her intrecession but my aunt would never pray the prayer w/us. So i really praise God for that one!

Funny thing that took place today. Well after waking up frmo my nap, i was craving boba loca. Went to boba loca and when i got thurr the guy was like 'sup man, you want the green apple slush?' Haha i thought that was funny the guy knew wha i usually order or wha i use to order. So i said, no imma get this and this instead. Anyway, its funny whenever i go to boba loca on sundays that guys thurr. He's always the one doing the register also. haha So perhaps next time ill invite him to LSS haha Or maybe next time he can hook it up. yess!

Rented the last samauri tonite, its slow in the beginning. But its one of those movies whurr you gotta watch from beginning to end. That way you can understand the concept of the movie. Looks like they hired a new guy again @ lincoln video. I usually know(not personally)errone that works thurr. FOr some reason theyre all guys that work thurr, i wonder why. Majority of them are filipino also and the manager isnt even filipino. He's like vietnamese or something.

So i met Jesus today in Peter the big boof. I was asking him for his prayers to help us find a spirit games venue. Check this out, the guy put up his away message and went searching for churches that he knew of. Unfortunately he came back w/not being able to find a church w/a large field. Praise God for his kindness into making the effort to help find a venue for us.
