This is what I hate about the priests.


I find it really absurd why the priest asked the people who are pro-RH bill to leave the mass. The people are there to worship and to pray! They should know that people have their own choices in life and being pro-RH bill doesn’t mean they are not good Catholics. Does being pro-RH bill means they can’t go to church already? They are just being practical. And how dare this priest criticize Risa Hontiveros- Baraquel in front of the mass? Everyone has the right to pray and the priests should not stop them just because of such reason. I love the Catholic Church but I hate the priests, well some of them. Because some of them condemn people, that just because of one sin they will go to hell daw. Then why do they have confessions? I would love to ask for forgiveness directly nalang!
There is only one God and when I convert, He will still be the one that I will praise and worship. Magcoconvert nalang ako into Christian, Christian naman si Dave.

What happens after school.

It's almost a month since my last blog and to be honest, I don't know how to start this entry. HEH :>

I guess I should start with what happened after our very last final examination. After a stressful school year, we all know that the last day should be for us to enjoy and reward ourselves and because I am "broken-hearted" because my ever "toyoin" boyfriend broke up with me, I have told them to join me and get drunk! So we went to Balay and yes, sessions will really help you feel better for a moment. But after that, I don't know. But thank God! After several hours, Dave changed his mind and decided to come back.



The next day, we had a rockband session at Carlalaa's house with Carlabebs and Thereee. Too bad we don't have pictures.

After all the drama, the real reward came. Dr. Wei's lunch treat at Legend Hong Kong Seafood Restaurant. I didn't know that there is a very generous professor both in grades and money until I met Dr. Wei. This professor showed his generosity from the start of the semester up to the end. I can still remember our first day with him wherein he gave the class 1,000 pesos as a donation for the photocopying of the materials needed for his course, Government and Politics in Asia. He also gave 3,000 pesos for the foods that we ate during the Chinese New Year and whenever you will recite in his class, he always has something to give you. He gave me a tumbler and a very nice rosary. And now that the semester has ended, he treated us in this classy restaurant and we are inside a private room and after our lunch, he called for 5 cabs and gave us 200 pesos for the fare. TMI. After the sumptuous lunch we went to MOA. uhh I'm too lazy to tell you in detail what happened. :))

HEHE :> He said that you must stand in his right side when taking pictures
it is the diplomatic way daw and a sign of resect.

 March 30 was Ate Jec's surprise graduation dinner. I was surprised when Tita Jhe (Dave's mother) texted me and asked me to join them in the suprise dinner they prepared for Ate Jec because they know that Dave and I already broke- up. And yes, we are keeping it a secret that we're already in good terms because of some reasons. So Dave fetched me and we went to their house then go straight to Aristocrat. Nothing much happened aside from the super fun photoshoot with GinnilAleksi, Ate Jec, Dave and the rest of the people who were there.

The Next Big Thing! :)

Last Friday, March 4, 2011 Classes were suspended because there were no professors so Jen and I decided to finish our experiment since we are going to defend it the next Monday which is technically earlier today. Haha! After the experiment, I have decided to ask Dave to come in with me to church so Dave and I decided to attend Victory U-Belt's Youth Series Service. The theme is called The Next Big Thing.

The service started with singing of Praises with the band and the whole youth in Victory. Ryan Tan is the pastor that night and that night’s preaching is about Embracing God’s Will. He used the Dumb Advices we are getting from friends to further discuss this topic.

Ryan Tan said that everything is being prepared by God in advance; all you have to do is to obey in order to experience it. (God’s will)

3 Dumb Advices

Academic Advice
1.    It’s better to cheat than to repeat.
2.    Bakit ka pa mag- aaral kung babagsak ka din naman?
3.    It’s not what you know, it’s WHO you know.
4.    Lahat tayo makakagraduate hindi lang sabay sabay.

Relational Advice (Friends, family, bf or gf)
1.    Papagalitan ka narin lang sulitin mo na.
2.    Follow your heart.
3.    Don’t worry girl, magbbreak din yan!
4.    If you love someone set her free but only God can make a tree.

Ryan Tan’s dumb advice- experience is the last one. He experienced it during Grade school, high school and college.
Grade school: Pasmado- Every morning he believed that he had to pee on his hands.
High School: He wanted to grow taller- His friend said that stretching is the solution and he has to sleep like a corpse.
College: Single- Habang single pa gawin na ang lahat para walan regrets. And so he smoked, get drunk, did drugs etc. He had hurt many people and did not see God’s will for him.

What is God’s will? God’s will, can sometimes complicate our lives, he said. Like Mary’s pregnancy. It is God’s will that she will get pregnant and many people will get mad and might stoned her to death. Joseph might hate him but after all, she is blessed with a precious and miraculous son.

Ryan Tan after leaving his vices found and believed that God's will for him is for him to be a pastor. It complicated his relationship with his parents because his parents want him to be a professional. They think that his studies will be wasted if he will become a pastor. But now, every time he will preach in their province, his parents are so proud to tell everyone that he is their son.

God reveals his will to us individually. Young people think that God's will is boring. It may not look good at the beginning, just embrace it and you'll find it's real meaning.

3 reasons why we have to embrace God's will.

1.     God knows the future. It's like a 3D movie. When you're not wearing the 3D glasses, you won't be able to see the movie clear. That's us people, we can only see what's in front of us and God is the one wearing the 3D glasses. He can see beyond what our naked eyes could see.
2.    God knows what’s best for us. Like how gadgets change model so fast, you’ll never know if it’s really the best until another new and better version comes. But God, he knows what’s best.
3.    God is merciful. He is merciful that he died for you. Obeying and embracing His will is all that you can do and offer. Offer your all. We are sinners with a core that’s why we need God’s mercy. If you do not have an idea of God’s mercy You cannot embrace God’s will.

And the service ended with a prayer.

How to become Mr. and Ms. Right instead of looking for them.

A while ago, I was listening to the past preaching/services in Victory UBelt. Thank God there are audios/ podcast posted in Victory UBelt's site. I've always wanted to attend praise and worship services there but it doesn't fit my schedule as a student. For everyone's information, I am a Catholic but I love attending Born Again Christian's services but that doesn't mean that I am a bad Catholic, I just love hearing life lessons from ordinary people but I am not leaving the Catholic Church until I got married, and that is, if I'm gonna marry Dave. :p But don't get me wrong, changing my Religion won't change any my belief that God is the reason for everything. I would still praise the same God though some rituals are going to change. So going back to what I am suppose to blog, the first one that I have listened to was the service last February 25 which tackled about: "How to become Mr. and Ms. Right instead of looking for them." 

"It wasn't us looking for it, it was God bringing two people together the same way God brought Eve to Adam"- Dennis Sy

Mr. Dennis Sy, a married man talked to the boys while his wife talked to the girls. He discussed the preparation a man needs in order to enter a relationship and of course marriage. This preparation is called, the "Leadership Preparation" Man should prepare himself to lead. He should be a man who can stand on his own, knowing what he needs to do and being certain in what he wants. As he goes on with his lecture he mentioned the "Peter Pan Syndrome" they are the boys who can't change, those men who has beards and mustache but still unsure with their lives, no priorities and no goals in life. He also mentioned that if you have a boyfriend who asks their parents for money just to date you, then give yourself a favor, break-up with that guy because that kind of guy is not ready to lead. Mr. Dennis Sy has given 4 ways on how to prepare. "If you're a man here, at wala ka naman balak pakasalan yan.. 'Wag ka nang text ng text! Kasi ang mga babae, pag tinext mo ng sweet, kahit gaano ka kapangit 'di niya iisipin yun.. They would sigh, and giggle. Ang babae, hindi yan tumitingin sa panlabas na anyo."

Man should prepare himself to be a cultivator. Man should learn how to cultivate."Itanim mo, patabain, palaguin, pagandahin." Men should help women to grow, it shouldn't be the other way around. 

Man is created for war. Do not defraud women, love them and fight for them, make them feel protected and secured. Man is created for battle and to battle not just physical battle but also spiritual battle. Women may be emotional, hormonal and yes men cannot understand women. Men should always pray for them and fight this spiritual battle to help their love grow spiritually. Total understanding is needed to establish a good relationship.

Men are teachers.Just like how God created Adam, placed him in a garden and instructed him not to eat the apple from the forbidden tree. The word of God directs every decision we make in our lives.

The second part is from Dennis' wife. "It is the Lord's plan that prevails." Being a woman, we are in a generation where we live in false hopes and dreams. The Disney Princesses era where all of us believe in "Happily ever after" We are taught to wait because the right one is going to come. And it stops with waiting. Until the right one comes but you haven't prepared for that time, and in the end there will be no happy ending.

Season of Passive waiting. You will wait for your prince, and when he comes, that's the end.

Active Preparation. You prepare yourself in all areas, heart, mind, body and soul.

You have 3 areas to prepare for in her preaching, HEART, MIND and SPIRIT.

Women are sometimes longing for something, there are questions running in our minds like "Am I loved? Am I beautiful? Am I accepted? etc." Every February or what we call the love month we can see in women's eyes the expressions and emotions. Some are happy and some are sad, some will even buy flowers for themselves and walk with a smile in their faces but when they got home, they'll cry. DENYING the real feelings because you have this desire, but hey! You don't have to deny these feelings because it is God who placed those desires in you but always remember that these desires should not consume you. And always remember that God wants to consume you. You have to fully understand God's love for you. Fill your mind with God's word. You belong to someone else. Somebody loves you enough to save you. Somebody loves you to buy you this very life.  Embrace your relationship with life. Your goal is to live for God. You will not settle for any less than the best that God has for you.  Guys, you have no right to treat them any less than the way God wants them to be treated. You protect them because they are worth protecting. Christ died for them.

Colorgenics

Got the idea of trying Colorgenics from Ginnil. I got the same results as her. :p

You are in a state of constant expectation and want interesting and exciting things to happen to you. But in fact, you are a 'Walter Mitty' at times - a dreamer - over-imaginative and often given to fantasy or day-dreaming. There is nothing wrong in 'dreaming' - how boring life would be if one just followed the doctrines of everyday life - but one must not continue leading a life of continuous fantasy. You need to face reality in spite of all its possible shortcomings.
The way things are you are under considerable stress and you feel that there is little hope of matters righting themselves. Everyone about you seems to aggravate the problem even more. You feel that at this time you need to be alone and you are right - move back and give yourself a chance to breathe.
You are a rather inhibited sort of person. This could be the result of your upbringing or of your schooling, whatever. You are able to obtain satisfaction from various forms of physical or emotional activity but all in all you are inclined to be emotionally withdrawn. As a consequence of this you find it difficult to sustain any deep involvement.
You are feeling helpless. The fact that you are unable to control events that are going on around you is subjecting you to considerable stress. This can, if not relieved, cause muscle spasms or hypertension. It would seem that you are, for whatever the reason, being subjected to intolerable pressures. The complete environment would appear to be hostile. It would also seem that you are being driven against your will. You feel - and perhaps quite rightly so - that unreasonable demands are made of you but more to the point you feel as if you are powerless to control the situation or protect yourself in any way. At this time you feel utterly helpless.
Trying to cope with conditions which you think are beyond your capabilities has led to considerable anxiety and stress. You now feel that you are not capable of coping with this situation and indeed any situation which could arise from what you consider to be your personal inadequacy.
