Journal: I am Home
-------------------------------------------

I'm in the process of finding a job right now. Really need one to pay for a short-term loan accumulated during my, what do you know, first quarter in college.

Of course, working will also be more productive than sitting on my butt as I wait for my green card issue to work itself out.

I need to focus on being faithful, persevering and trusting in God. I am tempted to think of my current situation as a setback, but I know that God always has a plan. And I'll stick to whatever that is.

Journal: ...really?

"Love ceases to be a pleasure, when it ceases to be a secret. " - Aphra Behn

If I had not the company of all sorts of hearts, at all levels of pleasure, I would not have given this quote second thought. But as it is, I looked upon it twice and saw how its sometime true nature can escape so many notices.

Of course, put Christ's love in the picture and this quote is just blasphemy. Hahaha.

A Prayer for Today

Heavenly Father, thank You for equipping me to fulfill my destiny. Thank You for walking with me and guiding me. Show me ways to develop what You have given me so that I can build Your kingdom in the earth. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Journal: Shay's Sleepove
-------------------------------------------

Last night, Heather went through the trouble of teaching me how to Superman. I know. I hate the song and I hate the dance, but it was actually sort of fun to do. Afterwards we watched Georgia Rule and then John Tucker Must Die. I didn't anticipate the first being so serious and disturbing. Hmmm...

Anyway, Lexi and Regina are still asleep and Heather, Shareena, Ashley and I are awake. Kiah and Judy left last night during various times in the movie.

FUNNNess

Journal: Bye Bye
-------------------------------------------

Today I took a math test that may have ended the long reign of the 4.0 GPA period.

I grieve.

And, as if God was trying to tell me something, I stumbled upon a quote the night before the test that reads:

"A bad grade is only one letter in the essay of life." - Lee Drake

Journal: Doom Doom Doom
-------------------------------------------

I feel faint and very stressed.

In two days time I will be sitting in a classroom with an SAT booklet in front of me. I have not subjected myself to any special preparation for this occasion and am convinced that I am doomed through and through.

It just escaped my mind. This summer was wasted away without even taking a practice test. No practice test. It is common knowledge that people who have not taken the PSAT fail the test. And don't go to college. OMG I'M NOT GOING TO COLLEGE!!!

I can't not go to college. This is ridiculous. I blame the Democrats.

Journal: Travel
-------------------------------------------

Today we discussed plans for travel. I'm quite excited but at the same time willing myself to stop being so excited. I miss my family in the Phil. so I hope I do get to see them soon.

I'm almost finished reading the novel assigned to us this summer. It's an interesting one; I didn't think it would be.

Journal: Active
-------------------------------------------

This summer, I've decided to be more active. I'm volunteering at the YMCA nearby where I get to play and run around under the sun with small children.

Hopefully I can fulfill my community service hours AND PE credits this way. Who knows.

Picnic with sisters; photo session; e-mail counselor; write more poetry!

Journal: Messy Messy
-------------------------------------------

It feels like it's starting to feel. Which is good, I suppose; but it doesn't feel good when you really think about it. But thinking is out and as of now, feeling is in. In love, where have I been all these years? If only feeling came as easy as thinking. But then I'd be a mess. No, I would feel like a mess. Just now I was thinking, and that's precisely how I'll be all my life.
