Blessings

"Whoever is wakeful and prayerful in the night, in this visible darkness he is surrounded by an invisible light..."

CONGRESS: For the past couple of years now I've been going to the Archdiocese of LA congress youf day. Last year was the first year I went w/holy fam, in fact it was kind of funny I was kinda laying a low profile hoping no one from sPv would see me. Anyway, well this year the youf min. wont be cuz well were late on the registration cut off. Part of me was like, 'aww that sucks,' then the other half was like, 'oh well, I have the whole day off so that'd be cool.' Well the more I saw in the sPv bulletin the more I was beginning to ask Wendy to put me on the list. SHe had asked me back after Christmas I think, but I told her I wasn't sure(only cuz I was set on going w/Holy fam). So I've been putting it off asking her to see if there was room, well finally I saw her tonite and I mentioned it to her and well what do you know she put me on the list! So it looks like I'll be going to youf day after all woOo!

WRITING IT DOWN: After being inspired by that movie 'Freedom Writers' I decided to do a similar project with my confirmation students. I bought them all journals and shared w/them that we all have blessings we encounter errday. We also somehow encounter Jesus day by day even if its juss through the smallest thing like the sun shinning etc. Being its too hard to collect and read them on a weekly basis cuz I want them to write in it errday, I told them itd be an ongoing project until May. At the end of confirmation I'll collect all the journals and read them, I'm excited to see juss how much growth that will come out for it, for all of us. These kids could really benefit from an LSS. I miss those days.

OPPORTUNITIES: Often times we get these subs, especially the old retired people who don't always know wha exactly they're doing. Thas when I step in and basically run the class while the sub sits and chills. Yeah, that happened today the old lady was real sweet and nice, but she kinda didn't have a clue how things ran(understandable)so after lunch I ran the whole language lesson on capitalization and narrative text. It's kind of a cool experience running a whole classroom, you really get engaged with the whole learning atmosphere. Sometimes I start to get a little nervous but then it all slowly goes away. Good thing these kids are only third graders, though I wonder what it'd be like in an upper grade classroom. Next month is Read Across America, I can't wait it for that! ANyone interested in coming to my work and reading to kids?

GOING EARLY: The past few days Ive been doing a good job in getting to work on time in the morning. One of my coworkers gotten written up for not being to work on time. Friday, I was real late and the teacher kinda gave me this look when I walked in. I felt really bad and embarrassed, it juss made the morning a little awkward. So I'm trying to make sure I'm there on time cuz well I dont want reported that I'm showing up to work late. Normally, I walk in like 910-915ish when I'm suppose to be there by 9am, but I want to make the effort to actually be there on time in case I have people watching. I'm so glad its the rest of the week are early days.

REALLY GOOD: General Hospital has been really good these past couple of weeks! Oh man it always leaves hanging at the edge of your seat cuz of the whole situation. You have hostages stuck inside a hotel with these gunmen. One of the hostages has already been shot on the side and is in danger of dying. YOu have this metal vault with a code that no one knows except lorenzo thas locked up in the safe that will self destruct in 12 hrs. Watching all the drama made me feel like as if I'm actually there inside the hotel!! Im reallly anxious to see how its all going to turn out! I always end up hanging at the edge of my seat before its over.


I cant find that song!!
