DONE: I finished my last final for the stupid semester, ahh im so relieved that skool is over. Though I gotta go back in 2 weeks for summer skool oh why?! ANyway, so we had to do our geo. presentations, the final was at 1030am. Well I figured it would only last an hour, 4-5 min per presentations, there was like maybe 6. Oh why?! We used up the whole 2 hrs! Aghh! By the time I looked at my watch it was 1215pm! Maan I was gonna be late for errthang I had planned for this afternoon. Im juss glad stupid class is over, cuz thurr whurr people I really couldnt stand in that class.

CLEAN: Went back to the docs today for a post surgery follow up. It went well, he asked how I was feelign and errthang like that. As you can see he took off the bandages and well all I have is the gauze. There's a total of 5 stitches on that mug, above the stiches is my scar from when I was at war in iraq haha! Next tuesday, they'll take off the stitches and so I can get my foot wet again. So no swimming for me this weekend, aww kawawa mee! Bigs up to cheska for taking this picture and sending it for me. It feels weird now that its all open, it does still hurt, every now and then I feel a little pain. Nothing though untolerable, the doc gave me pain killers, but I dont need them. And no, I wont be needing physical therapy or any type of therapy. I'm juss glad there isnt any complications. The doc said he burned that whole area or around it or something to try and prevent from coming back. Though nothing is promised, there's still a 5 t0 10% chance of it coming back.

SALVATION: I had mentioned this already last week bout one of my kids asking me bout salvation outside the church. It ended up being a really interesting convo last nite during dinner, that has raised some good points. I brought this up at mcdonalds w/a couple of spirit games members. They were kinda perplexed at first as to how to answer. It was funny cuz I had expected a few of them to give an answer right away. Though they all pretty much said, that it all depends on the heart of that person and who they are. It would be hard to tell your protestant friends, 'oh yeah convert while you can before you end up going to hell.' ha The way I see it is, it all depends on the person's heart. At the moment of death they can totally juss give their all to God and they could be in heaven. It really is in interesting topic...

COMING ALONG: Had another spirit games meeting tonite, praise God cuz I think its verly slowly coming along. It was real fun tonite, juss joking around laughing etc. etc. I have volunteered myself to head up the liturgy/opening ceremonies ministry. It was either that or handle registration, but I think planning the whole mass and opening ceremonies would be cool. I think imma do a whole fireworks celebration ahha make it all hardcore. The meeting was quite productive, its juss been a real challenge this year. Praise God for challenges though, cuz God knows how much fruits come out of it all.


Spirit Games

LET'S CHILL: So during the meeting we all wanted to chill aftawurrds, find something to do etc. Myron asked us, 'whas there to do in buena park?' Jill and I booth looked each other and started to laugh, and we said 'uhh there's the wax museum!' hahaa it was real funny. We finally decided to get cold stones, at the bpd. Went to the bpd and cold stones was closed. Oh why?! That was out of the question, again the whole, 'whas there to do in bp?' was raised again. Ha there's really nothing open real late on week nite in the bPd. The opitions of ihop, dennys, mcdonalds, chillis and starbucks was thrown out. Majority decided on going to ihop...well ihop ended up being closed! ha Soo we ended up settling with good ol mc donalds. haha

HIS BODY: I love the theme for this year's spirit games, 'standing firm in one Spirit.' It kinda piggybacks off of last years, 'many parts, one body.' As we are all one body in Christ, we stand firm in one spirit. I found this little poem on a bookmark in the classroom, I thought it was tight, so imma share it. It juss confirmed our whole purpose here on earth, how were not here to bicker or fight agaisnt one another, yet to love one another and help one another same way Christ did when he was on here on earth.

Be my eyes and see
the world as I do.
Look with eyes that are
kind and just
and forgiving.
My people
are searching for me.
Please find them
and see them with my eyes.

Be my hands
and bring the world
my healing.
Reach with hands that hold
and touch and comfort.
My people
are crying for me.
Embrace them and
touch them with my hands.

Be my heart
and love the world
with my heart.
Give my heart to the
broken and the lonely.
My people are longing for me.
Receieve them and love them with my heart.

PONDER: I found this little thing on one of my peeps from yfc's xanga. It's something to sit and reflect on.

But if we are the body
Why aren't His arms reaching?
Why aren't His hands healing?
Why aren't His words teaching?
And if we are the body
Why aren't His feet going?
Why is His love not showing them there is a way?
There is a way

Praise God for so many blessings...
