WARNING: RUN-ON SENTENCES MUCHH.

I remember one time when I was a young girl (lol duh) and I was with my mom in Makati and she was driving and I was like, "Mommy, can I send the president a letter?" and she answered me and went on about the whole process and stuff.

But I actually forgot why I actually (again) asked her that question until, like, moments ago. After blogging about my previous post, I remembered.
(dramatic italicized effect XD)

It was something about wanting to make the president do something about current issues, I suppose. But as I grew older, I got more knowledgeable about certain things like how the president's too busy (with official works and, you know, other things) to keep everything in order and so it's not really very wise to depend on the president and it's much wiser to let everything go and just be apathetic to whatever's happening to our society cos, let's face it, there's just so much I can do and not a lot of people care anyway so what's the point.


So (I think) I've lived years of indifference towards criminal activities and rotten politics. I'm not saying that I care a whole lot about these cos that would make me a hypocrite and that's not very nice. It's just that I'm really really really hoping that the authorities can actually do something about everything, with the Maguindanao massacre, the lost bullets during New Year's, all the road rage, holdap-an and what-not. Seriously, everything.

I guess that's where religion faith comes along. Knowing that there's this almighty God that will keep everything peaceful without you even needing to write Him a letter.

Men may fail and disappoint us but not God.

*tried real hard to find that Bible verse but ended up failing D: must be more familiar with my bible verses!*

It's just sad how people are given this chance to actually have the ability to do something about everything and yet, not that I'm blaming and condemning them, they still
don't/can't/aren't able to do it. I completely understand how it's difficult and how there's so many other things to do and how there's so much damage control to be done and how the nation's salvation can so not be achieved in just a snap and etc.
But still. I had hopes.

So I actually understand the madlang people (yes, got it from Showtime!) out there who supports a political candidate all through-out the campaign then immediately condemns the said person when he gets the position yet forgets his campaign speech and fails to solve everyone's problems. I find the attitude rather irrational but I can't blame these people for believing in someone they thought was actually trust-worthy and giving him their votes so that he could one day make their lives better.
*I won't give examples. I hate giving examples :S*

I've got to stop here. I have so much going on in my mind right now like seriously I mean it. This post lacks so much organization and punctuation and it's full of run-on sentences but hey I'm just blogging (well, not just just blogging but just blogging I think you get it) and I'm getting off-track now so must stop.

You know that feeling when you're writing about something you're so passionate feel so much about and then you start tearing up. It happened. Hohoho.
I'M DEEP! I AM NOT A SHALLOW PERSON. I AM NO BIMBO!!!!! HAHAHAHAH




Done.

May God bless you, always :)

THE MEN OF CHRISTMAS.

Got this from a friend's blog:D
Can't include the link since the entry's for her contacts only so you won't be able to see anyway:P

____________________________________________

Jesus is Better than Santa


Santa lives at the North Pole.
JESUS is everywhere.

Santa rides in a sleigh
JESUS rides on the wind and walks on the water.

Santa comes but once a year
JESUS is an ever present help.

Santa fills your stockings with goodies
JESUS supplies all your needs.

Santa comes down your chimney uninvited
JESUS stands at your door and knocks.. and then enters your heart.

You have to stand in line to see Santa
JESUS is as close as the mention of His name.

Santa lets you sit on his lap
JESUS lets you rest in His arms.

Santa doesn't know your name, all he can say is "Hi little boy or girl, What's your name?" JESUS knew our name before we did. Not only does He know our name, He knows our address too. He knows our history and future and He even knows how many hairs are on our heads.

Santa has a belly like a bowl full of jelly
JESUS has a heart full of love.

All Santa can offer is HO HO HO
JESUS offers health, help and hope.

Santa says "You better not cry"
JESUS says "Cast all your cares on me for I care for you.

Santa's little helpers make toys
JESUS makes new life, mends wounded hearts, repairs broken homes and builds mansions.

Santa may make you chuckle
JESUS gives you joy that is your strength.

While Santa puts gifts under your tree
JESUS became our gift and died on the tree.

It's obvious there is really no comparison.
We need to remember WHO Christmas is all about.


We need to put Christ back in Christmas.
Jesus is still the reason for the season.


HAPPY HOLIDAYS, everyone:)
A
belated merry Christmas and an advanced happy new year to all of you:D

WHEN THE CLOCK STRIKES 12.

It's the 24th of December, lovers&friends-who'd-soon-to-be-my-lovers-too!
I don't know about you but, about for me, I'm looking forward for the 24th more than I do for the 25th.
I think because I enjoy all the preparations -- well, last-minute ones, at least -- more than I enjoy the actual party.




Especially when I was young and we're in the province and my cousins and I would be playing all day while our grandma and moms and aunts would cook and prepare the dishes that we're going to eat for Noche Buena. Then, when it's around 8 at night, all of us, kids, will sleep and the older people (NYAHAHA) will just wake us up few minutes before 12am. Then, after eating, we'd all gather around the Christmas tree and one member of the family will grab the presents and read the cards and have them passed around to those people to whom it's addressed to. And we'll delight in our presents until we grow tired and sleep again. Christmas has always been like that to me when I was little. We'd always travel to our province at least a day before Christmas. But when I got past Grade3, If I remember correctly, we don't always spend Christmas in the province anymore. Nonetheless, Christmas remains to be one of the days of the year that I always look forward to.


As years passed by, the childish ecstasy once prominent with every thought of Christmas day has slowly faded away. The red decorated Christmas socks hung up for Santa to fill in with gifts had been replaced with more practical and simple wish lists given to parents to see and fulfill. There are people who would rather sleep off the whole thing without even greeting the people they know, thinking that they actually could have been doing something better that time if it wasn't Christmas break. blah blah blah. And there would be those people who would actually forget about what the day is, like it was just another day in their life.

But, really, why do we celebrate Christmas?
I guess I would be able to answer this clearly if I'd been listening intently to the church services we had this past month; if only I'd been taking down notes-- that is, if only my notebook's not been lost. gahh. K, it's still my fault, anyway.

It's the time of the year when we celebrate the day Jesus Christ has been born.
The day when our Saviour has been born.
The day when the one person who could and did save us has been brought to existence.
The day when the Word became flesh and dwelt among us.(John 1:14)


Well, that's all I know since I'm not really a full-fledged Theologian -- or anything near that.


To avoid being a hypocrite, or to be called one, I honestly don't always think of Christmas this way. I'm actually one of those who anticipate the gift-giving part/s of this season. But, well, I just wanted to blog about this, anyway.


So, advanced merry Christmas, everyone!
May we all have a rockin' Christmas this year.. and the years to come :D


Done.

YEHEY :D

Studying `til the wee hours of the morning is synonymous to suffering only with a mug of caffeinated drink.

Ooh. Brain blast. You drink mugs of coffee when you mug. wth. xD


[Taken from my post in Multiply with more pictures of me xDD
Go take a look :>]


My boyfriend says hi.


--------------- ANYWAY --------------

I'd just want to write about how happy -and there's no other word- I am :D
We got our end-of-year exam results back and
I got the passing marks I needed to be able to go home :D



xO 'Cause my parents already bought my ticket last month
and my flight's waaay early. Like, two days after we officially do not need to go to school.
I wasn't sure then if I can really go home immediately
since we'd need to stay back in case we fail
whether it's any test or only the overall grade, I still don't know



But then, goooodiiieee. We got back our papers yesterday
and today and I got the passing marks I needed.
Yip, yip, yurrayyy ^^


THANK GOD.
:D
He's really mighty to save.
&because of Him, I never worried.
I never found anything to worry about :)
because I believe that
"I can do everything through Him who gives me strength."
Philippians 4:13




Yey. So I'm going home soon.
All the mugging paid off! xO
though I didn't really do much.
well, actually I might have. Oh, more like cramming xD
sucks. for the big O's, I'll study harder :DDD

&the prayers really helped. :)



All you've got to do is PRAY :DDD
"Do not be anxious about anything,
but in everything, by prayer and petition,
with thanksgiving,
present your requests to God.
And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding,
will guard your hearts and your minds.."
Philippians 4:6-7




Done.
God bless you, always :D
