Christmas is Over

:D Things happened, praise God for that. Something really really good happened, and I'm really happy about that (can't say it though, it involves others).

It's the new year again, and I'm older. Oh man now I understand why ppl say time passes so fast. Had a fun time yesterday, some friend came over and we went to the park and played freeze and melt and we played this impropto thing where we all stand on the seesaw and just move around. Haha!!

Christmas eve was really good. But Christmas Day was even better. Something good happened. Praise God. (: AND!!! That something's going to happen again!! WOOO!!!!

Next year am hoping to go to ITE or a school for baking. ITE almost everyone will look down on me, but my mum told me it's the best place to learn baking, or I could go for a baking school but that would cost more than ITE.

Christmas Tree

Today the Tree came. Still wondering bout the name. It was supposed to come from 9 to 12, but it came at 135. Nothing wrong with coming late. Except that this is a tree, and the truck that it was carried in was not air-conditioned, and the cut that you have to make in order for the tree to take in water had been made long before it was delivered.

This means, the tree spent at least 4 hours in the truck in the sun, meaning heat, meaning water going out, meaning the tree goes brown. The cut has got no use at all because you're supposed to put it into water in an hour after the cut, so we've lost some height of the tree, and the tree isn't taking in any water right now because there wasn't any time today to make a cut ourselves, so the tree loses water and there's a higher chance of the tree dying before Christmas.

BUT! It's a good tree, I went out and came back and I COULD SMELL THE PINE. Oh man I just love the smell of pine. It's still tied up though. It can be let down once we make another cut. Height isn't really important. But you know, if you can have a tree, it's one of the times you can't really screw up with it, so you want the height to be the same, you want it to have a good shape, not to bushy, NOT bare, all just a matter of taste. But I like the tree, it's finally here! and Chirstmas is on it's way.

2008 will become 2009 soon, another year will pass, and life goes on.

BLEH!! That's so soap-opera!! But life goes on! The tree will look good. Why? Because it's in my home that's why. It'll be our tree for the time being, and it'll be where we hide loads of stuff in it, and we'll have loads of fights about whose turn it is to put up the lights and deco. It's our tree and it's the best tree. HA!

Christmas

Exams are over!



Christmas finally is here. The shops kept broadcasting it in November to catch the November paycheack, so Christmas is all around... yet it's, not. Haha!



We've got our Christmas tree! WOO!!!! AND! It's not too early or too late to get one. It's big and bushy. Haven't thought of a name for it yet though. It's arriving today! On a Sunday! Yes, it's done all around the world, everyone has done it one time or other, but I find working on a Sunday just plain wrong. So thanks to those who work on Sundays.



This morning, while it was still dark, the Newspaper Man drove up, so you know, everyone says hi and smile. And he says hi and smiles back. Then I shout HI! and he laughs! So nice to make someone laugh. Haha!!



Oh man so many things have been happening. I was just at a camp and now I'm going for another. COOL!! I haven't gone for two camps so close to each other before. :D



I haven't sat with my family for mass in a while now. I've been in a ministry that helps out with the order of the mass, and when I'm serving, I can't sit with my family because I need to be at a particular place, and they can't sit with me coz we need a long chair coz we're so big, and where I'm sitting, the chairs are short. So yup. It;s kind of hard coz I can choose to look at it like God doesn't want me to sit with the family (and I know that's not what God wants), or I can choose to look at it like, if I'm going to do stuff for God, there'll be many things that I must drop.



I suppose I could look at it like another test that God has for me, or could be the devil trying to make me think that God doesn't want me to sit with my family. Whatever happens somehow or other God makes a way.

SO! Christmas coming along!! Get to go for midnight mass! Get to spend time with my family too! Oh man the year has been so long. But time flys like donno what man. HAHA!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS IN ADVANCE!!! :D

Church's expences.

I'm a Catholic. I think, that the Catholic Churches IN THE COUNTRY I LIVE IN, use the money that is donated to them for the wrong reasons. In what way? This: The priest's robes, the alter servers robes, the cup that holds the body or blood of Christ. The Tabernacle. The Tabernacle: It hold the body of Christ, therefore it should verywell be exalted. But honestly, Christ is a humble is a humble man is he not? With real gold, the Church SEEMS to potray him as some... guy who wants only riches...

Can't the money be used for better stuff? Perhaps not mission, but it could be used to help others here right? Like other churches, temples, and all that.

If I really wanted, I honestly am willing to give up money, just like I expect the church to (which means I know they need money for their needs, food, car, bed, etc...).

Hospitals

I knew a man who didn't want to go to the hospital because it was too expensive.

He died.

I remember wanting to walk right up to to prime minster to smack his face (I was very young at the time). Hospitals are supposed to be helping us, not dropping a bombshell of bills. All this kind of things at the hospital, or at doctors, you go for a checkup, they rob you of 50 bucks. FOR WHAT?? 'Oh, actually, it's important that you go for checkups, because if anything is happening to you, We'll be able to help you.' Then why charge us so much? If it's to help ourselves?

I understand that it's really hard to become a doctor, you got to study and all that, and its draining emotionally, and physically, but why charge us so much? What's the point? What, there's the doc's salary? Simple; give them a house, not a big one of corse, give them enough supplies, and there we go.

And then I heard bout that thing where the hospital told a MOTHER that her CHILD is brain dead, but people say that he could squeeze hands and all that. But the hospital told her she only has 24 hours before they'll pull the plug... I don't know the full story, but that's just shit. If it's true... after I heard bout the story, I didn't trust the hospitals. Perhaps that was what the man I knew thought of before he died.

I've got a sorta confession to make... The two days I remember? The one where my sister was angry and we all were happy, and then we all were happy and she was angry? Well, it was actually me!! But I was too embarrassed to say so... But now we all know how weird a girl can be when she is reaching puberty

There's been a lot of people sayin stuff bout the world ending and all that. But didn't the bible say no one, not even God the Son and God the Holy Spirit, knows when the world will end, only God the Father? Yes, I too, do want to know, so I can prepare for it. So that I know when to start being good.

Someone actually said that the world would most likely end in two generations from now. Why? Because somewhere in the bible it says He will come at an unexpected hour, which could very well mean when people have forgotten about God. In this Someone's theory, in two generations time, there'll be so much high tech techno that people will REALLY think there is no need for God. Which is the time people will just not expect God to come, because we would've forgotten about him.

The new pope has just passed something bout not saying Yahweh in church. Or any of the other names that God has. There must be some reason, but that wasn't said. So all the hymns that has the names of God, gone. The new pope has been using the American Bible. Is the new pope an American?

Why Am I A Fool?

People keep asking me why I call myself a fool. Here's why:

"If you ask a question, you are a fool for five minutes. If you don't ask a question, you remain a fool forever."

I always ask questions. That is why I am a Fool.

AND I'M PROUD TO BE ONE!!!

I remember the nights when my mum would come into our room and talk to us till our dad brought her out for walks. There were two nights I remember. The first, my sister was crying, but for some reason, everyone else was in a merry mood. And on the second night, She was laughing her head off, and everyone was angry. And she asked on the second night "A why is it whenever I'm angry your are so happy and when I'm happy your are all so angry?" Everyone just yelled at her to shut up. Haha!!

This song always makes me smile. I don't know why.
