Spamming!

haha look at this....



Oh man i'm getting soo much spam... i wonder if there are spies... hm... must clean up my computer!

OOHHH life is hectic.. maybe because all the teacher are cramming everything before the moratorium... ohhh indeed life is hectic...

In spite of it all, "Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you." Deuteronomy 31:6

Soothing isn't it?

Surprise!!!

Happy belated b-day Pat... I hope you read this... haha

anyhooo sooo on friday we had a surprise party for Patricia! The planning was last minute but things came together!! Thank you Anne for organizing it!!

So first, during school, we gave pre-made individual letters to random people so that they in turn can give it to Pat to unscramble. It was a random message but a rather thoughtful thing to do! And there's also random people wishing Pat a "happy b-day"!! Very fun!!

After school, because we couldn't reserve tables @ Kelsey's....(*squinting eyes*), no one knew where the dnner would be held! Luckily a few hours later, we found Montana's! It was soooo delicious!

There were about 18 people who came for the dinner! Lots of people!! And the food was soooo delicious and filling! I ate the ribs (their specialty) and it was soooooooo goooooddddd!!! hm.. i'm drooling right now!

Unfortunately, the singing helium balloon that Anne, Phoebe and Christine got for Pat flew to the VERY VERY high ceiling! It could've sang Pat to sleep a minimum of 50 times.. sniff sniff.. it was sooo beautiful and cuuuute!!

But it was the thought that count.. i'll forever remember the balloon on the ceiling!!

Our waiter, Joe NOT sir, was soooo patient with us. He was also very hard-working and I feel bad playing jokes on him.. haha but gave him lots of tips!! A very good waiter!

Like always, Pat received a b-day song from the restaurant. And surprisingly, they pied her face!! haha that was soooo unexpected! We were the loudest and it was very very fun!

Well after dinner, we all left pat, telling her that we were going home, but in reality we meet @ Greta's house to gather together before giving the surprise!!

So when my dad came to pick me up, i drove a lot of people there and we blew the balloons in the car. Very dangerous but very fun indeed! Man Fonda could blow balloons very quickly!

So we waited at Greta's house with the balloons and slowly people started coming... Anne, Phoebe, Carmen, Christine, Marianna and Annie. Apparently, when Christine drove Barry and Pat home, Barry - being himself - forgot the surprise party and asked Christine to drive him home first since it was on the way!!! hahah that was good laugh!

When lesley and the guys finally came, we snuck to Pat's backyard.. haha luckily we got her mom in this so she could distract Pat for us...

When we were walking towards the backyard, we were sort of loud and her mom had to sing/mumble to overtake our voices!

So there we were, in the backyard, with balloons and those loud noise-makers waiting for Pat to go to her kitchen and open the door! So when pat came out, SURPRISE!! We blew on those things.... and threw the balloons on her.. but when they landed on her lawn, they all blew up! o wellz. it sounds like fireworks!! haha

We basically crashed @ pat's house and ate the big mango cake her mom got!! hmmm it was sooo delicious!

So we stuck around, watching Scary movie on television and played cards and Mad GAG! Mad Gag is sooooo fun!! very addictive!

So that was my friday! very very fun, i'm very very happy for PAT!!! =)

My saturday was fun too! Softball practice.. it was hot but i think I got darker!! hehe! finally i can get rid of my farmer's tan!!

So once again, i'm happy and loving every second of it!

And exams are coming soon!! *eyes wide open* We start exams June 15 and i hope calculus is not on that day!

School is ending soon, grade 12 will be over soon but the friendships i've made will never perish!! We'll have to meet every month or 2 months once we go to university!! heheh!!

ooo and to end off... a little passage from the Bible which i think is very true!!

Romans 8:6 "The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace"

Live Life to the Fullest

Live life to the fullest...

that's a saying/phrase/advice people give to another... i've always told people they should enjoy everyday of their life... i've also told myself to live up to what i believe. I did live up to what i believe until i got caught up, once again, in the daily routine of school, eat, sleep.... Truthfully i haven't spent each day with life, with power and with ambition.

Fortunately, i was woken up by a conversation about having a simple life.. what does it really mean?? haha i thought about it... and here's what came up to my mind...

A simple life doesn't mean a life without problems and it doesn't mean to run away from the conflicts in life.

A simple life isn't a dull life... what's a "dull" life? Not living up the dreams, not following ambitions, not pursuing something that you like. A dull life is just waiting for things to happen, thinking that I can just sit around doing nothing and hoping that something exciting will happen. Sometimes, something exciting does come along and shakes you, but you'll need to take initiative and courage to lead you into something exciting.... a person indulge in a dull life wouldn't take that initiative nor face their fears...

A simple life is turning every moment of your life into something you can smile in the future, something you can be proud of, something you can hold on dearly and never forget...

I'm laughing right now because I know i've been striving to living to life to its fullest potential, making everything an opportunity of happiness, of growth and of joy. I'm happy, i'm joyful and once again, i'm loving every moment God has granted me life.

Life is precious, life is fragile. Hold on to it dearly, and it will be meaningful, it will be fascinating and it will turn you upside down...

Ready?

What's new....

hm....i haven't updated this blog in soo long.. quite busy actually.. busy doing nothing that it...

Well this is for you jeff... i'm finally updating my blog!

so what's happening in my life? Well surprisingly it's going super duper smooth and everything is flowing nicely...

I've gone through my most hectic week of the semester (which is last week)... with lots of tests and quizzes and 2 competitions on one day (one following the other) and 2 nights of very long concert. With a final finish and strong finish, i passed by G2! ohhh yeah.... me on the road.. that's going to be fun! fun! fun! (i just have to finish my extremely boring insurance classes... i'm melting in those grueling 24 hours of random car stuff). Not my interest....

Well this week.. maybe b/c i'm taking a break from last week... so i'm slacking.. i really need to catch up to physics homework.. but my body won't allow me..what should i do???

I can't wait for the symphony concert tomorrow!! haha the piano concerto and tchaikovsky's and sibelius' symphony! I can't wait.... i hope i can have a perfect view of the piano, especially the pianist's hands!! ohhh i can't wait...

and adding a bonus to this week, i'm not exactly going at school tomorrow.... first there's this SIN contest that i'm forced to do (I just want that $1 back!!) and then the symphony trip!! Oh no.... i can't wait.... *dancing and singing*

ohhhhh i just remembered....the laugh of last week... someone came up to me (after knowing him - sort of - for maybe 1 year or so....) and told me that he finally knew why people call me J-9.... haha!! very funny!

ohhhhh and i also learned a funny & very applicable term..."brain fart" - n. when someone has an idea and before catching it, it disappear into who knows where!!

I love it! and i'm loving my life!!
