KKB's 25th Anniversary

Last December 17, I'm with Charlie and we went to a special gathering for Church Youth Coordinators(CYC) and Area Youth Coordinators (AYC) at the newly opened JIL St. Francis Square.

It was an adventure for us, specially in finding the place and we were early birds, look at the picture below. Kuya Bernard, Ate Deth and Pastora Cora approached us upon arriving.

The place is incredible. It was cold, it's comforting. The party starts with adoration to God and later we have Fearless Acts where they challenge or requested KKBs to showcase their talents. Later, we have trivia games like Truth and Bluffs and also the group to 8 which is hosted by Sec. Joel Villanueva and gave away cash.

And there was this raffle. For a flat screen TV. Undeniably, most of us were hoping to have a brand new TV. A CYC won from cavite. :)
Before ending the day, Sec. Joel shared some insights and inspiration for us. Then we have a groupie in the end.

The Picture Frame

I may be the corniest man you know after sharing this. Posting some of my thoughts in public that I know I'll be shameful of. And you might tease me at some point but let me share it. 

I found this old-wooden-varnished-heart-shape-with-flowers-picture-frame in our home few years back. It's not that old. Maybe 10 years? I'm not sure but upon seeing it again, there's no picture attached within it (Previously it was my family's picture). So, I took the frame and clean it. It was an unsuccessful cleaning somehow. But I found interest with this picture frame and with some crazy imaginations. I come up with this.. Uhm. Goal? Target? Deal? Challenge?:

That the next picture here would be, my first girlfriend. Oops. It sounds like there will be second? Third? Neeehh. What I mean is, it should be 'our' picture together. That once I attached the picture in, there will be no turning back, no backing out, that the only way is forward and forevur.

It's like a together-forevur picture frame.
Once, I put our picture, we'll end up together in real life.

And, it's so soon. There will be a fulfillment. After all this time. It will be filled up. After times of being empty, now it'll never be lonely. 'cause our picture will be framed-forevur in this picture frame that is filled with hope and prayer.

Hold My Hand

Sitting in front of you, with songs that surrounds 

On the ears of every that's excited 

An approached and a tiny box-shaped device 

Explored the files, trying to find out the meaning  

Watching it on the screen, I tried to find you. 

But I can't, along with the cut scenes

I saw your smile. Wearing yellow and then transformed into pink. 

I'm enjoying the view until.. 

He came. An interruption.  

My heart beats fast out of nerve. 

I want to collapse as I saw his hand reaches yours for a handshake. 

Is it real?! Stayed up to the end. 

Waiting for something more. 

Bearing the stir of motion while trying to act normal. 

I know I'm not feeling well. 

He received something that I dreamed of. 

To share hands with her. 

I know I would cry. 

I know I don't worth it. 

And still I long for.

What Are You Waiting For?

The embrace. 

The message. 

The 3 Words

The 8 letters. 

The eat my food and I'll yours. 

The dance. 

The cake eating moment with milkteas. 

and the deal. 

I may not receive those simple things that I hoped for during my day but I tell you. I'm the happiest man on SM Megamall on that 2nd to the last day of the 2nd to the last month of the year. It's just amazing and it made me speechless. I just can't help myself but to smile every time I thought about it. It's spectacular. 

I'm sorry but. I fell in love with just the thought. And I'm waiting for the official to come in, for the perfect time to dance and to fly away with this feeling.

Yes, Lord. You're the best! ♥

In Accenture

Me and my brother, Israel went to Pioneer last Tuesday for his Job Offer at Accenture. About an hour in the bus. We reached the Robinson's Forum where the Office is located. At exactly 1pm he entered the office and I'm lost forevur in the mall. I checked Victory Pioneer which is extremely elegant, I wonder what's inside. Then, I went downstairs from 3rd floor to the ground floor. I bought a DQ ice cream and I explore more. I checked out some Lumia Phones and Cases and PC stuffs.  

I also went inside Robinsons Department. Check some clothes and stuffs. I went upstairs hoping for the end. But neh. It's only an hour. I went to the ground floor and find a seat so I can play games on my phone. Luckily, I found one. Thank God. 

I played Asphalt 8 and One Piece while sending messages to my loves forevurmore. I started to get bored though there's a plug in my ears for music. I went back upstairs and read a book at National Bookstore. I picked some short books that I can read. I end up with Bo Sanchez' Conspiracy theory. It was a very short yet inspiring book. Full of stories, comedy and it will 'cause you a smile.  

I finished the book with worries that guards will surround me and ask me to pay for every book that I read. But I guess no one's watching me.  It was a satisfaction that flows in my veins and a pain on my legs after reading the book. 

I opened my phone for some messages. It's already 5pm and I don't feel any good anymore. I played at Tom's World and lose at this challenger from Tekken 5. And It's 6pm. I bought potato corner's fries. And sat at the nearest available seat and eat the fries like no ones watching. 

My brother is finally free! We ate at Mang Inasal while he's telling me a story during my almost 6 hours of waiting. I simply express my suffering as he overtake and express his excitement.  

It was a day. He's happy. And I'm happy for him. For he said that he will make bawi. Hahaha. 

Favor and protection. It was really a day. We went home with our stomachs wants to burst because of fullness.

Shaggy Christmas

I heard a story last Sunday that pinch my heart and make someone cut onions in front of me. During her preaching, Sis. Gretch shared their Christmas as a Family about 3 years ago. It was a pretty cold Christmas and it needs to be wrapped with the warmth of delicious Christmas eve dishes. While her husband and two little kids listen to their neighbor's reunion and smell those mouth-watering grills. 

She's on the kitchen busy, opening the packs and the noodles. She prepared the table and the rice. And you read it right, noodles. Not a spaghetti noodle but a Lucky Me noodles. And there's no leftover. 

It was a sad Christmas to hear. I even saw Sis. Gretch bursts into tears on stage but as I listen, I realized the truth and lies about life. Because our wallets will emptied at times and health is unstable. But truth is we can be happy and grateful at many things and NOT be grateful with anything. 

The Noodle story is about a heart's response to life. If we will be thankful for what we have or we will be ungrateful and ask everyone to lend you money for Noche Buena. 

Life is not that easy. There's no toggle for it's difficulty but. If we learn to be grateful and loving. Everything makes sense and simple.
