Extravagant Worship
I haven't read much books lately. *sigh* I miss reading novels, Robert Ludlum novels. Or Mario Puzo novels. John Grisham novels will do too.12:54 Posted in Events | Permalink | Comments (0) | Email this

Miss Universe 2007

Omedetoo, Mori Riyo-sama!
I was happy that most of my "bets" made it to the top ten, and top five. Also, one of them was able to take the crown, Miss Universe-Japan Riyo Mori. She's one of my top three: Japan, Korea, and USA. Well, I should call her now Miss Universe 2007.
The top 5 are the following:
Miss Universe - Miss Japan
1st Runner-Up - Miss Brazil
2nd Runner-Up - Miss Venezuela
3rd Runner-Up - Miss Korea
4th Runner-Up - Miss USA
Special Awards:
Miss Photogenic - Miss Philippines
Miss Congeniality - Miss China
I noticed that a lot of the Miss Photogenic title-holders were Filipinos.
While watching the pageant, I was making my own judging. I know I have been quite prejudice. Or maybe my brain just thinks this way.
These were the contestants who topped the following categories, with me as judge. I rated them from 1 to 5; 1 being the lowest and 5 the highest.
Swimsuit
1. Korea - 4.75
India - 4.75
2. USA - 4.5
Thailand - 4.5
Nicaragua - 4.5
3. Japan - 4.25
Ukraine - 4.25
Evening Gown
1. Mexico - 4.75 (She looked regal.)
Korea - 4.75 (She was so glamorous.)
2. USA - 4.5 (I gave her that because her smile was so beautiful despite what just happened. She radiated glamour after slipping.)
India - 4.5 (I can't remember why I gave her this score.)
3. Japan - 4.25 (She reminded me of a young empress, beautiful and powerful.)
4. Tanzania - 4
Nicaragua - 4
Brazil - 4
Wonderful isn't it? Most of my scores to Mori-san was all 4.25 yet she's one of my top 3.
I'm not yet done. There's still the question and answer portion.
Q & A
USA - 4.5
Japan - 4.5
Brazil - 4.5
Korea - 4.3
Venezuela - 4
Miss Universe-USA, Rachel Smith (22 y/o), was asked if she is to go back in time what would it be and why. I love her answer. It was telling me how she treasure memories helping young ladies in South Africa. Such a benevolent heart. By the way, I was surprised to find myself in favour of US. I'm a racist.
Miss Universe-Japan, Riyo Mori (20 y/o), shared being happy and optimist (to stay positive was her phrase) as her treasured childhood lessons. I believe I am missing one value here because the translator and her answer mixed in my ears.
Miss Universe-Brazil, Natalia Guimarães (22 y/o), was asked to choose between brain and heart. I like her answer, but I could hardly put them into words. Gomen.
The question to Miss Universe-Korea, Honey Lee (24 y/o), reminded me of my royal son. She was asked what super power would she like to have. Miss Honey Lee chose to have a wallet that never dries up. I'd like to have that too. Of course, we'll have the same reasons- helping missionary works.
Miss Universe-Venezuela, Ly Jonaitis (21 y/o), I believe, chose to be safe in giving her answer. But any lady in her shoes would do the same. She was asked which she prefers, a wild and spontaneous man or someone who plays it safe. By the way, her name makes me wonder if there's such a condition as Jonaitis.

First Day, Busy Day

Today was a busy day. I had two engagements and something unplanned happened. But it's okay. It was fun.
VBS First Day
I woke up late because I slept early, really early today. The kids were not that naughty and I hope that they'd still be manageable tomorrow, and in the days to come. By the way, I am helping out (not yet teaching, but hoping to do so) in the Beginners, who are aged 3-6.
The Afternoon Fellowship: Lunch
THE VBS classes were already over, but Bryan, DeeJhaye, JR, and me stayed. We were in the music instruments' area. Joan was also with us, but she left early. We were playing the instruments. I did so with the drums, but there was no definite beat because I don't know how to play it. I was just "playing" with my drumsticks.
Bryan had to send his cousin-nephew home so he had to leave. While waiting for him JR Bonda, DeeJhaye, and me ate lunch in Country Style. JR calls it Bansa. =p
We talked about stuffs before, during, and after eating. When we were done (with all those that happened), we went back to the HOTL. Play time again.
We were playing until we came to the point of deciding should we go to G4 or not. In the end, we did.
The Afternoon Fellowship: Let's play
We decided to go to G4. But before reaching our destination, we passed through all Ayala Malls except SM. Kit was also in G4 waiting for us. We then headed to TimeZone. Some time later, Bryan came.
All of us, excluding Kit, played DM. And it was fun!
Summer RLE Schedule Inquiry
Yes, I went to our school. Only after the last credit for playing DM.
Instrumentation Training
I think it's part of the YF Ministry. I joined the Drums Lessons. Gackt, it was not easy.

Our God is an awesome God!
05-08 April 2007 || Tayabas, Quezon
Our 2007 Young Friends Camp was so wonderful. I believe everyone's been blessed. And I pray that God was pleased. I believe God was.
God spoke to me during the camp. Not just once, but at least thrice. One of the messages I had was when I had dinner after I talked to Ate Faye. I was looking at my plate filled with food. There was only a little space left to move the food. But being raised to empty one's plate, I was obliged to.
Little by little, I devoured the food in my plate. Sorry for the word. Well, I was really able to finish my meal. Okay, here was the message: Malaki man o maliit 'yan, kayang-kaya 'yan ni God (Big or small, God is able to work in it).
One of the things I love about this camp is the feeling of closeness between campers. We're brothers and sisters and Christ, but you can't always expect everyone to be so close. This camp was quite different. The fellowship we had was just wonderful (and I know God will continue to work in us). And to think how the Holy Spirit worked, it was double wonderful.

Another message I had, which was really personal, that I want to share is this:
It was our last night in the camp. Stuff, stuff, stuff... I talked to God and so is everyone. I told Him I want to know Him more, that I want Him to speak to me. Then God told me that I'm quite a practical person, who does not depend/based things on feelings. I have the Bible; God will speak to me through it (but God also speaks to me through situations, things, and whatever way He wants). And the most exciting message I got was God is excited to reveal Himself to me. And I believe He's also excited to reveal Himself to you. Yes, to you.
Life is more exciting with Christ in my life. And it's really nice to know that God is also working in other people.
My fears are gone. God will never leave me nor forsake me. The Lord has given me the peace that surpasses all understanding. God's mercy is new every morning. And His grace, which I don't deserve, is so amazing. No words are good enough to express how grateful I am. And with God's eternal and unconditional love, I can keep going in this world. God was absolutely right when He said, "Apart from me, you are nothing." (John 15:5)
Father in heaven, I will go on loving You.
Your love is high
Your love is long
Your love is wide
Your love is deeper than my view of grace
Higher than this worldly place
Longer than this road I travel
Wider than the gap you fill
Who can separate us?
Who can separate us from Your love?
Nothing can separate us.
Nothing can separate us from Your love.
09-11 April 2007 || Taytay, Rizal
I visited my mother. I told her what happened and by God's grace, our relationship was genuinely restored. There was complete reconciliation through the Holy Spirit.
God is really awesome. The glory, honour, and praises belong to God forever and ever. Amen.

Olongapo Trip

I'm already here in Olongapo City. I'll have my first night shift duty later. *sigh*
I was in bad mood earlier. Things happened and I was just pissed. Stuffs about home, plans, journey, travel-things, and others got into my nerves. I forgot my case form. And Gackt, I forgot my facial wash! It was the first thing I've prepared for this Olongapo-duty. -_- What I did was buy a new one. I wasn't able to find a Dove sachet. I don't use Ponds so I was forced to buy a Nivea Visage.
My anger did not stop with things from home. I was also pissed because of a particular situation. Read: Solitude. To amuse myself, all I did was think about the Ret. I wasn't even able to take a good nap in the bus.
But I'm relieved now. Quite. I'm not as pissed as I was early today. I just don't like that we're going to have another duty from 11 in the eve to 7 in the morn. I still prefer OR. And I think I can tolerate ER. OR is still better. NICU comes next.
Think positive, Shinrai! Watch your attitude.

OR: NOD

Monday. I saw something I thought I met seven months ago.
Tuesday. I thought what I saw was wrong.
Wednesday. I've reckoned what I saw because I saw something today, which made me wonder if it was the one I saw last Monday.
This day seemed to have changed my dreams, and plans. I plan my dreams. I wonder if I should write further, but I think there's no need to. This day will always be memorable. "Sandali lang ha?" *I-know-what* ^_~

Evento Triplice

Event #1:
It's my 2nd year anniversary here in BlogSpirit! ^_^ It's nice to know that I've been here for two years already posting my thoughts, opinions, and anything.
When I started here, I was so blue. I wanted a place where I could, as the Psychiatric health care system put it, verbalize. I knew, with innocence about the importance of verbalizing one's thoughts and the like, that I have-and need- to speak out. What I had in mind was the cautiousness not to have cardiovascular problems.
But the truth is, I did not accomplish my original intention. This blog has become very public. But I think only few people visit and read its contents. It's okay anyway.
Event #2:
It's my friend's birthday! Otanjoobi omedetoo, Hakuto! ^_^ May God bless you always. Have a nice day!
I really have nothing more to say. I just want to greet my friend here.
Event #3:
Kei is holding a farewell party. This is a not so good news. I wasn't able to come. I wanted to, but I wasn't granted the permission I needed. And I was, though still am, tired. Yesterday was the beginning of my toxic days; tomorrow the duty days.

Save La Mesa Watershed!
I don't want such thing to happen to the people in Metro Manila. Hades, imagine the little children... the pregnant women... the sick... worse of all, imagine yourself doing what the boy from TV did. I wonder where the common sense of those people responsible for a planned housing project went.
Let's help save La Mesa Watershed. Please sign the petition in LaMesaEcopark. Thank you so much.

Waiting...
I wait for something to come. Actually, I wait for a lot of things. But I don't want them to come, yet. Most of the things I wait would just cause me trouble. Ha! I'd be in bloody trouble if I keep this bloody habit-vice- of mine. Among those I wait upon, I'd say the best, could also be worst (depends), is the coming.. the second coming... of my Saviour and Lord. Gosh, speaking of Him makes me little, a tiny little helpless creature. I think I'm redundant. Hehe. But I'd be really glad to meet Him and be with Him. Work out your salvation with fear... I have to remember that.
Things to come will change me unless I change first, I could change them. I am really sporadic. So paradoxical. I think a lot. I dream (good things) a lot. But I lack action. I'm so bloody passive. I need a big head hit. Physically... no, thanks. That would be bloody, literally!
Wish I could deal with the intellectually stimulating man again. I am trying to remember what he did, what I felt when we were still in contact. Hope it could help moi. I should not wait for something really crimson hades to come. That's the bloody thing about me.
If I keep saying bloody, bloody hell, crimson hades (also means bloody hell), I'd be mistaken for being a brat. Am I? I would've been one if my sister did't 'save' me from my parents' =p
197
Pag-ibig anaki'y aking nakilala
'di dapat palakhin ang bata sa saya,
at sa katuwaa'y kapag namihasa,
kung lumaki'y walang hihinting ginhawa.
202
Ang laki sa layaw karaniwa'y hubad,
sa bait at muni't sa hatol ay salat;
masaklap na bunga ng maling paglingap,
habag ng magulang sa irog na anak.
I'd say it's one of the reasons why there's still a 'stain' of spoil in me. On my first months or years here in this bed of earth, I was raised in the wrong way. They gave me everything I liked. I was even told that I fought my parents back, as if I could hurt them, and would spit to other people. Gosh! That was so bloody! Well, I have no recollections of those things. I was just told.
Seems like I'm having fun sharing a bit of my childhood so please allow me to go on. Doing this has still a purpose. It's part of my psychology mode. *pondering*
My early years, toddler/pre-school years, were... I'd say... also bloody. Couldn't find the right term. =p I was a very maldita kid. Yeah, before I left my beloved land-Davao, I was so and so maldita. I did obey the elders but I hurt other kids epecially those I thought were inferior to me. What an attitude!
I better end the story. Well, thank God I changed. He's still pruning me. I am bloody stubborn so I learn the hard way. Stubborn, stubborn. I'm so stubborn.
Btw, tomorrow will be the first time I'll cosplay. It's part of GC's CosTrip. Interessante. I am not sure who's going to join us (ma mierre et moi) but I think it'll be interessante. I'm waiting on this event too. Oh my, I just remembered. Tomorrow is also YFJC's Youth Fellowship. I haven't had much fellowship with my spiritual family (anyone who calls God his father is considered my spiritual family), especially the youth. It'll be on 18:30 so I'm gonna leave quite early tomorrow.

Jonjie-Kay Wedding
First and foremost, my hair was harassed. <_<
The wedding was held in The Manila Peninsula at exactly half past three in the afternoon. Too bad Tita and I weren't able to see the "entrance". Bloody thing. Never mind. I'll keep it with moi.
Mr. Groom was Jonathan Joseph Peralta and the Ms. Bride was Kathleen Joy Hiteroza. But they are now Mr. and Mrs. Jonathan Joseph Peralta.
Kuya Jonjie's really fond of photography, though he works in a bank, because even though they're in the altar he dared took his digital camera and took some pictures of their guests. I think this haven't happened before. Mr. Groom is a photographer. ^^
I'm actually a guest of the bride. Ate Kay was my rhema leader last year when PDL campaign was going on. She was also my rhema leader during our 2004 Youth Camp held in Baguio City. She's really nice, kind, spontaneous, cheerful, and beautiful! And it's so nice of her to invite me, and the rest of our rhema, on her wedding day. How sweet. ^^
I'll add to this later. C'est crimson hades. <_<

*Took a med exam
*Went to SM and Ayala, shopping (toiletries) ^_~
*Tita bought me a purple umbrella
*Did my laundry
*Took a bath ^w^
I also bought a Singaporean magazine - Teenage. Wow, it's my first Singaporean magazine and first Asian teen mag. ^_^ I've only bought it for phP35 in Glorietta. Heehee... There were plenty of editions to choose but I picked the November issue simply because BoA is on the front cover. Heehee... I will be back to buy the other issues. Prices are reasonable, phP35 or phP50.

"Siya 'yun!"
When it was the Soldier ministry's turn to perform, I took a glimpse of the soldiers who performed and I saw a familiar face. I looked at the camera and I said "Siya 'yun!". Well, I actually shouted it. On my mind. Heeheehee... Who was this person that I saw? See for your self....

Waahh... I think I'm at lost of words to say now. Oh, I've just remembered that (almost) three years ago I was at pain for what happened. Namida shitte iru.

Animax Robo-Dream 2005
I think there were only 31 cosplayers. I met new cosplayers again! Hehe... It reminds me of G2 Con. I've just read from Filcosplay that Ms. Jerry Polence (I thought her name is Polence) won the cosplay competition. Galing!
I was also able to have an autograph from Koichi Inoue-san. Yokatta! He was nice. When it was my time to have his autograph, I gave my tare Ginji pic (on its other side) and requested "Doozo". He turned it to see what'sin the pic and when he saw that it was tare Ginji, Inoue-san laughed "Haha". ^_^ When he was done, I said "Doomo". He just smiled, as what he usually does.
By the way, I also have an unforgetable moment about Inoue-san. It was about his first entrance to the stage. I'll post it later because I have to turn this laptop off. Got an early curfew tonight. T_T
