Amazing
"Faith seeks understanding..."
FREEDOM WRITERS: Ive been wanting to see this movie for a while, and so I finally got the chance on saturday to go. I walked in having expectations and it was real different from what I had anticipated it to be. Great movie-one of those motivational movies and being that its about education it made it all the better. These kids had nothing, their parents had nothing, and yet they were rich in so many other virtues. Then the teacher herself, oh man, talk bout sacrifice-working 2 other jobs juss so she can do these extra activities to make learning fun for her students. Then on top of all taht her husband decides to leave her and get divorce Which probably out of all of it sucked the most. Yet her strength and determination to help these students strive to acheive goals and make something out of themselves was the fruits of all her hard work. Goes to show how important teachers are and the difference they help make in the lives of soo many people. I hope one day I can do that.
BOOMERS: Wed. I went w/the young adults and we went to boomers, good times. Despite the fact it was closing early, it was tight. Took Fr. Antony and Fr. Vic w/us and they're so much fun to be around. I think it was fun for them juss to get out of their regular environment and have fun. Aela had the hook ups so we didnt have to pay for any of the extra stuff. I wanted to do the rock climbing but they closed it booo. AFterwards some of us all went to el tortio to eat and hang out. Its good to see that the ministry is growing and it's attracting many young adults to step out and join a church ministry or group. Im sure by the end of this year it'll be jam packed full juss how the youf ministry was in the beginning years.
TIME FLYS: I dont even know where the time goes anymore, I look back on my old blog entries and I find it amazing how I made the effort to blog errsingle day. Ha now a days, Im lucky if I end up blogging once a month. Between coming and going with two different jobs its crazier and crazier each moment. I run into people who I haven't talked to in a while and they ask 'what have you been up to?' And I always end up saying, 'oh nothing juss working.' ha Yeah I think Ive been so adjusted to thinking alll I've been doing is working that I forget the other things that have been going on.
BUSY MONTH: This month should be a fun and interesting one, all my saturdays are pretty much booked for the rest of the month. Last nite Reirich, Fred, and I went to check out victoria gardens in rancho before going to mel's house. I had forgotten how big victoria gardens was, but that place has almost errthang you're looking for. Yeah, its a lot better then going to the spectrum, the block, or 3rd street promenate. Too bad it's juss too damn far to go chill at on more often basis. Mel's little kick back was fun, her dog is too cute I juss wanted to take her home. Next weekend is crazy one, I have 3 different events going on besides my normal work. Roots concert, which I'm real excited about going to. Allen's 19th birfday shindig at his house and then my friend amee's from hs 25th birfday thing at some club in hollywood. Then the weekend after taht is my cousin's autocrave show. Yep, it should be one exciting month full of festivities.
BAC K IN IT: I started watching smallville again, well I only watched the whole season 6. I didnt feel like going back and catching with seasons 1-5 ha. Being that I hardly ahve time to watch I end up catching up w/all the shows online through youtube or freeshows. The show that has been really good so far has been General Hospital-oh man! Talk bout exciting! Robin has been shot she may end up dying-theyre all stuck inside Carly's hotel with these men wanting the briefcase. Alcazar had to have immediate surgery for the bullet that had shot him in the head a while ago. Yeaaah...its been intense, Im juss anxious to find out how it's all going to end!
NEW FACES: A couple of my confirmation students have been going to the youf min. meetings on monday evening. It made me feel all good inside, seeing that they've made the effort to come. I had one student who went to the retreat back in December and came back totally loving UTC. Stuff like that is awesome, to see these young people growing into something new, taking a step out and wanting to grow deeper in their fatih. I guess the same with the new faces who've been going to the HFYA. They come in so eager and so open, which I can see them becoming future leaders for the ministries. Praise God the spirit is working and is definitely moving in all these people.
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY: The beginning of this month was my one year anniversary here at the rectory. Man how quickly that went by, through all the challenges I made it through. Working here, well not even juss working here but juss being here at the parish I've learned so much. I dont think there's ever a dull moment that passes by here at the rectory. Some of the stories I end up taking home w/me are freaking hilarious. All in all I enjoy what I do, like with errjob it has its ups and downs but I like the people I work with, I love being able juss to give the assistance the people here. Even though I've only been at this parish for a little over year, there's so much I've learned bout the parish life and the parishioners. Holy Family really is one unique parish.
"A Holy Family in every home..."im done, im out GOd bless!
