There's nothing to really worth mentioning today. Work was terribly slow and I made $15 tonight. That certainly supassed my expectations. Anyway, since today was pretty uneventful, I'll blab about yesterday, just like I promised.

I peeled myself off my bed at 7am to get myself ready. My youth ministry is raising funds for a trip to Toronto. We plan to attend World Youth Day 2002 and meet the Pope. Interesting adventure, eh? Anyway, the whole thing was a complete success...at least in my eyes anyway. Since I wait on tables for a living, everyone thought that I should be the head waiter and make sure all of our guests were having a satisfactory experience. Ugh...I closed the night before, and I had to wake up and serve tables again. Hey, I shouldn't really complain, after all, this will pay off in the near future. Anyway, it was a lively morning and it was real nice to see some old faces again. After being beat up at the fundraiser, I sped back to Selle's place for her dance rehearsal again...

I can sleep better knowing that Chriselle's debut will be great. Despite a few understandable tardies and absences, the whole thing ran like clockwork. Everyone pulled together and made the whole thing look so elegant. I know that we, as her entourage, could pull it off.

After practice, Jane and Jerms told us about GOSPELITE. So we decided that we (Selle's royal court) will meet at BOBA WORLD. I've always heard the hype from Aileen. After experiecing it for myself, she has every right to praise it. I had a great time with the lively music, the entertaining (but meaningful) skits, and the stimulating lecture. I actually picked up something useful from him.

You should not be yourself based on your abilities.
You should not be what other people say about you.
You should not be yourself based on what you own.
You are what God has done and what He says you are.

God created you, so He knows your true beauty and value. There is nothing to prove to anyone. Nobody else's opinions should matter to you. Expensive possesions only get you a "wow!". They don't you get friends or anything like that.

It was one of those days where I felt good to exist. I felt good vibes from the the people and the whole event. For once, religion wasn't being force fed to me. I'm considering a membership in their drama team. It's something I've always wanted to try.

DON'T BELIEVE OR CARE WHAT ANYONE ELSE THINKS OR SAYS ABOUT YOU. IT DOESN'T REALLY MATTER AT ALL...
