   Wow, I didn't realize how long it's been

Don't worry, don't worry! I'm here! I didn't realize how long it's been since I've been here until I took a look at my email and got one from the otaku telling me that they miss me! I had no idea the otaku even did that...awesome!! So, I decided to drop by, and I was like "whoa! Was that seriously the last time I posted?!?" and so, I've decided that I needed to tell you guys all that's happened. Well, it turns out that someone had claimed the Filipino booth for the festival afterall, I was so excited! The festival was a blast! I got pied in the face by my own sister though...and after that one of my best friends was having a sleepover, me and my other best friends stayed at her house. ^_^ Summer has taken over me, so ya, I still miss my schoolmates, but I'm going to see them this fall. So, I decided to get over myself, because I didn't want to mope the whole summer away haha Mission trip came and went so quickly, but it was great! I went with a group that helped with flood relief. We were saving wood and nails from a church that had collapsed from a landslide, which was a result of having too much rainfall. Did I tell you I <3 crowbars now? I told one of my guy friends that and he was like "You don't use tools that often, don't you?" and it's true, I don't...people don't really trust me with them...mwahahaha. Right when Rachel's mom handed them to us, we started to laugh a bit maniacally and uneasy...heh heh. Unfortunately, we weren't reunited with Lizanya until later in the evenings, and the last two days, when we got to work together ^-^ Alex, our Garden Gnome(that's his nickname) was always around too, he's so much fun to be around, and by the end of the trip, I'm pretty sure almost everyone was calling him Garden Gnome. I had my crazy moments here and there, but then again, I always do LoL. Well, I better "hit the hay" because it's getting late, well, later actually, and plus, I don't want to make this post too long, even though I still have tons more to cover haha
Well, nighty-night everyone! Ta-Ta For Now. =^_^=

   ...good-bye...

It's official. I've reached the commencement of the crumbling of my kingdom. Well, it's not exactly a kingdom, but in a way it is to me.....
I thought things were going to be somewhat okay...hopefully things will still somehow be. How come things don't last forever? Why do we have to say good-bye? Why can't there be change for JUST the better? First off, summer. YaY! No more school. I find that fun and all, but I like school because I get to see my friends everyday. Now that we're on break, I don't get to see them that often...and I miss them all already. Today, one of our dear priests at our church was retiring, and today was his last day. I'm going to miss him tremendously and I don't know how the church and some activities will go on. It's just not going to be the same without him. Next, the parish festival. It is one of the things that I absolutely love and look forward to every summer. There's games, all kinds of food, music, occasional dancing, yada yada, just absolute fun. But then, I found out that we're not going to have a Fillipino booth this year...because nobody wants to take responsibility for it. My mom told me that if she would've volunteered, but my dad would flip because of all the work and stress that would be put into it. I am so disappointed and I feel even worse because I know how disappointed everyone else is going to be. Everyone loves our food, for some of my friends, that's practically what they live for and sometimes why they even show up! I dislike complications. I guess that's one thing that makes me still so much like a kid(I honestly still consider myself as one though...I don't want to grow up quite yet haha)...because what my dad says, "you can't just get a thought in your head and run with it, you have to think of the many other things that would happen if you pursue it" and so on. On top of that, later on, another dear priest is going to be leaving soon. And then, yesterday, I found out that one of our friends died. She was always so sweet and kind, isn't it sometimes scary how one minute, they can be there, thriving and alive, and the next minute, gone.
So, lately, what I've been reflecting on to keep my conscience away from total depression and lonliness is that "it's not 'good-bye', it's 'until I see you again'. I guess I could also say that atleast I was able to wish them farewell. Some people believe that it's better if they just leave without saying good-bye, because I guess they think it's easier and less painful that way. Well, I guess it may be, but in all honesty, I would want to say good-bye. To be surrounded by the people that I know and love and who I know and even don't know who love, know, and care about me back is a treasured thing to me. I know that I'd be missed and that I would miss them terribly, so I'd want to spend every possible moment with them before I go. To the people whom I would be leaving, or to the people whom I would be sending off, I would want to wish them happiness and give a hug and a smile, to reassure them that no matter what happens, wherever life will take us, we'll still be in each other's hearts and things will be okay.
I'd try to be strong for that person or for those people, and then, if I have to, I'll wait until I'm home behind the locked doors of my room to cry my eyes out haha

   My turn to go to a wedding =D :D =D

So, Lizanya just came back from a wedding, and now this weekend I'm on my way to a wedding in North Carolina. This is going to be a busy weekend ahead of me because in a bit I have to go to dance practice(because since my dance rectial is coming up, our dance instructor is trying to put in as much practice as possible), then I have to go to my brother's graduation, then right after that we have to leave for North Carolina and the wedding is the following day!
I'm so excited! Both the groom and the bride I have become good friends and I wish them a long and happy life together. <3
My friend Lizanya told me that at the wedding, she absolutely loved it, because it was one of those rare times where you witness true love, and I started thinking about that, and I thought that that was the sweetest thing ever said. Here, I've been to so many weddings, and I realize I really do witness that, but I've never went straight out and said that. Whenever I see how deeply in love they are, I always think to myself "Wow, whenever I get married, or if ever I get married, I want to be in a relationship just like that...yes, genuine love." ^///^
I love weddings. =^-^=
So, I'll be back whenever and I'll tell you all about the wedding ok??
I love you all! *hugs*

   changes

So, a lot of things are changing...
At first, I really didn't want them to happen, and I dreaded it. But, eventually, I suppose you can say that I'm gradually beginning to accept it. You see, one of my friends might be moving, and I don't want him to leave...ever. I just started getting to know him and we've become friends...and now he might be leaving...I was really upset about that and when I first heard the news I seemed to be miserable whenever the thought entered my mind, and then I'd become sad whenever I saw that person. But then, I got to really thinking, and I was like "I'm just sitting around here moping, when I should be enjoying what time we have left", because people will come and go, but it's the time you spend with them, and the memories that are created that really matter. So, I've decided to cherish the moments.
