"We don’t know always know what the plan is, but we always know there’s a plan. Relax and know that somehow God’s got it all worked out."

Tentyu!
I have been saving a special prayer in my cell phone’s draft folder for as long as I can remember. And as of yesterday afternoon more than half of my wishes included in that prayer, were granted. The most amazing is that the biggest wish was answered when all hopes were lost.
Weeks ago, all I could think of was “we're going to lose this battle” – but how little faith I have! It was once said that “God answers our prayers, three responses stand out― yes, no, and wait.”
God asked us to wait first and to have faith because He would say yes in His perfect time. And in our case He surely did.
During those times, my parents showed me what faith is all about, never once did they show that they're going to give up. And I admire them for that.
Thank you to all those who prayed :)

Roses for our beloved Little Flower...

kakanta muna ako ha?
There's a lot of things I understand
And there's a lot of things that
I don't want to know...
It's alright, I'm OK
I think God can explain
I'm relieved
I'm relaxed I'll get over it yet

The tears of a child
Healing Hands
Marc Cohn
Tonight I cried the tears of a child
Who knows what fear runs
deep and wild inside
But the river's in flood tonight

Weekend with friends
I really have no plans of going but my best friend, Maciel, insisted that it would be fun. So I said, “Ok, I’ll go.” And then quickly packed my things.
Looking back, the two main reasons I decided to go were just to be with them and to take a lot of pictures. However, what happened during our stay at the Matabunkay Beach Resort and Hotel went beyond my expectations.
Now I have to thank Best for being persistent :) because I really had FUN :)
Thank you: Raciel, Destine, Reese, Sarah, Jero and Best for a very wonderful weekend!
(Forgive me but I have to post an hour-by-hour account of our activities and tons of pictures!)

Could You Be Messiah
by Gary Valenciano
Could You be healer
To a heart that's been wounded
In a battle that's never seen...
Are You deliverer
Of an imprisoned feeling in chains
Can You set my spirit free?

Just wondering...
How could you say, “I miss you” to someone whom you’ve only know for exactly three days now and the two of you haven’t even met yet (face to face)? *shrug*

First day of school
I went to LB last Saturday to attend the general orientation of all new students in the morning and the program/course orientation for Masters of DevCom (MDC) in the afternoon.
I arrived at the UPOU headquarters 2 hours early (hindi kasi iniintindi ang schedule ;). Seeing people talking and laughing in groups transported me back to my very first day in pre-school. I couldn’t seem to remember the basic rule of making friends.
Luckily when I went inside the conference room several people were already seated. And like me, they all seemed to be on their own. So I approached one and introduced myself. Surprisingly, she also came from San Pablo City. Tita Weng and I chatted until the orientation started.
After orientation, Lema, a college acquaintance approached me and asked if I still remember her. “Of course naman,” I told her. We had a small talk before I went out of the room. She, on the other hand, had to stay for a few announcements regarding their program.
As I was about to leave the building, I saw Baldwin, a former college apartment neighbor. After a very long chikahan, we found out that we are classmates in ENS 201.
During lunch at McDo, a girl smiled at me. It turned out that she too is a student. Later on she told me, she smiled because she saw the study session materials I was holding. After I bought food at the counter I joined her and we ate lunch together. Since all study sessions are to be held at the DevCom Building, I accompanied her and some other new students to their designated rooms. Instantly, I became their tour guide. :)
We had our program orientation at Lecture Room 1.
Déjà vu. Memories flowed like a river. And it felt really good. My classmates came from all over Luzon. They specialized in various fields. I think I will learn a lot just by mingling with them.
After class, I went to visit St. Therese.
~~~
I’m back to school again! Unlike the ADMU experience, this one feels home and this time I know I belong.
Buhay na naman ang dugo ni Jing-jing. :) Yup, I asked them to call me Jing instead of Guada.
(By the way, Jing-jing means brilliant in Mandarin :)
Super dami agad assignments. I really have to re-orient myself. Dapat 'wag tatamad-tamad! ;)
~~~
I know I have NO RIGHT to say anything about it - at least not yet. But I want you to know how very excited I am about it. Super-over-mega excited! Another cannot-wipe-the-smile-off-my-face event :) I'll always be here for you. yipi! ;)
