Update!

Since I didn't get much time to blog about my latest whatsoevers, here's a piece of last & this week's happenings:

Mom and dad bought another cam! Yehey! I'm so glad. Love it! Love it!

Pero siyempre, I still love our Sony Mavica F7 as well as our Brica DV80


Everybody was busy last week on preparing for the Celebration Sunday for 40 Days of Purpose Campaign held successfully last Oct.28.

My busyness was primarily due to the exhausting and nerve-wrecking dance presentation preparations we had. As the Dance Ministry’s leader and choreographer, I had to spend hours of conceptualizing and choreographing aside from the actual practices we had as a group. Sure that was strenuous, but doing such things for God pays all the hard works. Besides, I should feel extra uplifted to be entrusted of such a responsibility, right? :)

Saturday… Ate Myra’s, a church young adult, wedding :) Dad was the officiating minister, while I was assigned to place the veil. Abay :D The wedding was soooo yellow. Lol.


The Celebration Sunday was SUPER. OVER. META. (I’ll be blogging abt it on my blogspot soon)

Monday to Wednesday (today), my family and I had a short vacation and getaway from city life. We had a restful and super fun stay at Covelandia Du Labrador (pictures coming very very soon! ).

Tomorrow, Thursday, we’ll be going to Pampanga since it’s November 1st. What’s up, Lolo! :D

Blah.

This is just a random blog writing. AND since I'm really lazy to blog today, forget abt spelling and the like. I'm not proof reading this.

Okay, so last night, I almost finished teaching the dancers our presentation for Sunday. We only got 32 more counts to finish the presentation.
Props are okay as well. My buddy and I bought four cuts of satin cloths, orange & blue, which are 4 yards long each. It'll be used as props for the first song that'll be danced- I Hear a Sound.

Next, I'm really a fan of Paul Wilbur. Yeah, you may say I sound like a Christian belonging to the 80's, but I still love his songs. Searching for the songs I Hear a Sound & Come Let us Go Up, I've bought 3 of his CD's last Sunday.
Actually, since these albums are out on the 90's, we do already have copies of them. Casette tapes nga lang. Anyway, basta I love messianic songs. Never really a fan of rock music. I love old/ classic Christian songs.
Next, may wedding sa saturday. Aba! I just knew last night that I'm one of the ______ - I don't know.. what I'm just certain of is that I have a part. Yay.
On a quite negative mood, I hate Vanj (not really the 'hate' hate. I just hate her. Haha. Labo.) I saw a photo folder of hers sa laptop and found out that she lent her classmate my purple long gown --without my knowledge, obviously. I never really liked the idea of lending clothes to others. I may sound so maarte, pero I really don't (Hindi ako pwede sa Big Brother house. Haha). Clothes are very personal stuffs, 'di ba? Pano pa kaya ang gown. MYGOODNESSGRACIOUS! Ughhhhh.... Lagot ka sa'kin pag-uwi mo mamaya.
Shifting to a very positive aura, I woke up at 8:26 this morning!
It's such an achievement. It's the first time I woke up that early my whole semestral break (except for Sundays). Pano ba naman, I fell asleep last night at my parents' room by like past 10. Haha. Cool. You know what, I was like a child amazed at the morning!
Kasi I seldom see the beauty of it. Nakaka-guilty nga kasi feeling ko I've took its beauty for granted. Ang ganda talaga ng umaga. I hope I could continually wake up early. Ang sarap mag-devotion at morning :D I opened my window talaga kanina and praised God for a wonderfuuuul day! I wish I could do it often.
So there. Just wanted to let all those things out.
Good day!

Beach-y

‘feeling beach-y today (actually, yesterday)– really.
I’m yearning for white sand and clear waters.

Last week, during my mom’s visit to my lola (at Pampanga), she secretly talked to my uncle who works in Holiday Inn (Angeles) who happens to be also a part-time travel & tours coordinator. Mom planned to surprise us with a week-long vacation at Boracay!
OMG. I got really thrilled when she told us about the hush-hush. We’re about to stay at the place on October 29 to I don’t know. Anyway, that’d be a perfect time for a getaway because, first, our Celebration Sunday for the ‘40 Days of Purpose Campaign’ at the church would be on the 28th, then, 29 would be a holiday, and finally, the next days would be not-so-busy ones.

BUT, as we were just talking about it after dinner last night, my uncle called mom and delivered dreadful news. Sooo, by this time, you probably have guessed the next story. Yeah, right. All flights toward Boracay would be fully-booked from the last week of October to November 4. Hohoho.
Mom asked by uncle to find other possible routes, instead.

So there. Vanj and I were like, “picture na picture na ako!”. Haha. I can’t say “swim na swim na ako!” since I know not a single swimming stroke. Hah.
Anyhow, being the persistent and equally pa-libot girl that I am, I have surfed the net for other possible vacations (Ilocos, La Union, Puerto Galera, etc.). Hmm. Don’t be so glad kasi I found none. Goodness. What do I know about booking planes, hotels, and tours, ‘di ba? I believe I just have to rely on whatever and wherever trip my uncle could find.

Awwww.. May SPF na kaya ako!


Anyways, hope this edited photo would be brought to real life soooooon :D

False Prophets

There are a lot of false prophets spread all over the world. We often laugh at them, but only few give attention to praying for those who are mislead by them.

I was browsing the internet until (unconsciously) past 1 AM, when I suddenly surfed-off to GodTube. There, my attention was caught by a video about a man in the US claiming that he is Jesus Christ as well as the anti-Christ –he’s JC (accdg. to him), but his followers all have 666 tattoos. **goosebumps** Confusing? Watch this:







Anyway, a very familiar person harked back to my memory watching the video. Well, he’s the “better” version in terms of delivering his belief and conviction about becoming JC. He’s none other than PACQ or Pastor Apollo C. Quiboloy, The Kingdom of Jesus Christ’s senior pastor and the self-proclaimed Appointed Son of God, a resident of Davao City, Philippines.

I have watched his 24-hr running TV network called the ACQ TV several times already. I thought it was yet another great fellowship, but my dad explained to me their doctrine. My father has told me that he has been observing their group since the cable here in San Jose City hooked their TV station. Dad also told me that PACQ used to be a “normal” pastor. Actually, they sing songs of Ron Kenoly, Don Moen, and other old Christian hymns, aside from their new self-composed songs. Anyhow, here are further details.

So anyway, what’s creepy about him, aside from his false proclamations, is that his denomination keeps on growing (unlike the anti-Christ’s denomination which I’ve mentioned on the first part of my blog). I mean, since I pass by their station daily while switching channels, I have noticed how a lot are deceived by him. Their church is one huge church with thousands of (deceived) followers dressed-up in all white all the time. I’m quite sure that, if not all, most of the so-called Kingdom Citizens have read or at least heard of the erses Don’t let anyone mislead you, for many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Messiah.’ They will deceive many. (Matthew 24:4-5) or There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death (Proverbs 14:12)? so why in the world would they actually ride the train to hell?

I’m not so against his followers. In fact, I pity them. I pray that they would soon come to the realization of the way to real salvation.

To the Kingdom Citizens who might get the chance to read this, you are prayed for. May God grant you the wisdom of Solomon to choose which path to follow.

For those who are of the same faith with me, this is not just another blog entry. This is a call to hurry up on winning more and more souls for Jesus. It is written that the fields are white for harvest, and that the Lord is looking for laborers who could work in the fields.
By nature and design, people are made for worship. If we, Christians, wouldn’t be able to bring people to the “right” Christ – the way to the Father, they would naturally search for other things or people to worship and cling to. Volunteer for the harvest! AND, if already volunteered, reach more and more and more.

God bless you!


**little sharing: I have tried to post this entry for more than 10 times. It was my first time to experience such hardship in posting.
