WELCOME
So to start out with todays blog post I just want to say Happy Birthday Jesus! Without you we wouldn't be saved, we wouldn't have heaven, we wouldn't have Christmas, and specially we won't be here right now. Now with that said, I wil list all that I did.
So we started cooking for nucho buena- its a dinner thats usually ate after Midnight Mass around 12 or so. So my mom and I started cooking out lunch time, cause if we started late we wouldn't have time in the end to take a break. We got everything cooked by 7:30pm. It was a lot of work but it paid off.
Then, we were suppose to have nuchobuena around 9pm, but it didn't happen cause we left around 9:30 to be at church by 10 for the Christmas Eve Mass. So at the Mass I was the thurifer (the person who was in charge of the incense) and my sisters were the angel for the pageant. The Mass was very beautiful and hearthwarming, I mean realy the choir sang beautifully, everyone was very attentive and part of it was in Latin!
Then after Mass, we got home around 1am. We then took pics, and ate nucho buena. We had ham, desert, goat, and more desert! Then it was time to open presents! I was pretty psyched! We all got 3 presents each. I got a Polo Ralph Lauren polo shirt from my mom and dad, along with a cell phone- (which i cant text yet cause mom said that she has to wait til the contract ends at summer), a new Polo Ralph Lauren watch. They know I love Ralph Lauren! From Michelle I got a polo and tie - which i have been asking for, and it was purple! From Faith I got an Aeropostle polo. Boy- it was pretty exciting if you ask me!
Then we left cookies and milk for Santa. We went to bed at around 3am and woke up around 10am! When we woke up we immediately went downstairs and checked on our stockings! I got a Kangol Hat from Santa! Thanks Santy Clause :). My sisters got a bunch of cool stuff too. Then we ate lunch aka leftovers from last night, and then we just hung out as a family that whole night.
Then around 5pm we went to Aunt Melanie's house. She isn't really an aunt, but she ist he only filipino around thats close to us, plus we all go to the same church so it's all good. At her house we had noodles, rice, ham and desert! It was good, then we hung out for a couple more minutes and got ready to leave. Once we got home it was about 10pm. We got home, we watched tv and got ready for bed cause we had church the following day. So that was a recap of my day. It was a very very Blessed Christmas filled with joy and laughter!
Have A Blessed Merry Christmas Everyone!

"Be not afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of a great joy which will come to all the people"
WELCOME!
"In those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be enrolled. This was the first enrollment, when Quirini-us was governor of Syria. And all went to be enrolled, each to his own city. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, from the city of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David, to be enrolled with Mary, his betrothed, who was with Child. And while they were there, the time came for her to be delivered. And she gave birth to her first-born Son and wrapped Him in swaddling cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn.
And in that region there were shepherds out in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with fear. And the angel said to them, "Be not afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of a great joy which will come to all the people; for to you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign for you: you will find a babe wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger." And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among men with whom He is pleased!"
- Luke 2: 1-14
Merry Christmas!
Have A Great Christmas!

1 More Week!
WELCOME!
So today marks one more week til Christmas! How exciting! The house is all ready to welcome the Lord! The tree is trimmed, the lights are put up, the manger scene is put up, the garlands are hung, the candles are lit. Yes- it is Christmastime again! This Christmas I wish for nothing more than World Peace. I mean really in the Middle East it is greatly needed. I pray for World Peace everyday, along with a couple more wishes, because it is greatly needed!
So today has been a very relaxful Sunday. Started out the day by going to church. After church we stayed and helped decorated for it. There was about 5 huge trees, 10 wreaths and garlands and many candles. (will post pick on Friday) All that decorationg won't get done today, but that's ok because a lot of people are helping throughout the week so Father Dave doesn't have to do it all by himself.
After that we got home and got ready for lunch. After lunch, we got a lot of house cleaning done. Mom told us that getting the house cleaned is important specially when Christmas is less than a week away after tonight! After cleaning I got to studying. Yes- it is shocking that I studied on a Sunday afternoon, but I did because finals is this week! I got my Biology study crib sheet typed and ready. All I have to do is print it out tomorrow and I'm all good.
So what will tomorrow bring? I don't know but I know that classes are long and that I only have two period each day. But what I know is that I am ready for Wednesday because that is when Christmas break will begin! I am so excited! Excited for the food, for the family getting together, for going to church late at night, for opening presents, and most of all for the coming of Christ!
Have A Good Day!

Thank You-- Mother Nature!
WELCOME!
Today has probably been a great start to my week! First of all we got about 4 inches of snow and it caused us to have a delay. I was kinda expecting to go to the Finance Park field trip cause we got to get out of school and it was our only field trip, and I was actually looking forward to it. Turns out i was wrong!
The two hour delay we had today caused such a big problem. For starters class was only about 35 mins long which didn't give me enough time to get all my homework done. Plus after lunch I told myself this is going to be a long day! The good thing about it is that we got lunch after 1st period and we didn't have to do anything too much today in classes because the teachers didn't have anything planned out for us (since we were suppose to go on a field trip).
Anyways after school I got home, plowed the driveway and got 10 bucks! The only bad thing about the snow is that it causes us to have cancelations which means more days are added up at the end of the school year and that means less vacation time! Plus another bad thing is that you don't get to hang out with your friends that much cause it is too freaking cold outside!
Hope You Had A Great Day!

"All he does is make up a bunch of crap"
WELCOME!
Well the title for this blogpost I wouldn't really consider a title, but we will use that. Anyways, I myself I haven't feeling good lately. Too much pointless crap stresses me sometimes and I just can't take it. I'm too tired and stressed to make this a long post. I don't know if this is really a blog post or not, but I will just say it is.
Have A Great Day!

School Days......
WELCOME!
Today's topic is going to be about school. I haven't talked about school since last year. I was meaning to make this my blog post earlier but I keep getting different ideas. So about school. This year i started my Freshman year which is a good thing. My schedule is pretty easy and flexible.
Period 1- World Languages- I am taking Latin, I chose Latin because it will help me when I am in college.
Period 2- Drawing I- I took this class because some of my friends said I am a really good drawer so hey, why not?
Period 3- Phys. Ed- Gym class isn't that bad this year. I'm in their with some of my friends like Maddie, Enos, Beachey, Ashleigh and Lathan. So far gym this year is going pretty well.
Period 4- Biology I- Well let's see, Mr. Roby isn't sexist like what other students say he is. He's pretty cool, so we'll se how the year turns out.
Period 5- English- Mrs. Sheets I have her again this year. It's not that bad because it's an easy class, I mean we do absolutely nothing. Which isn't a good thing cause they said Miss Monticue gets you ready for Tatman's next year.
Period 6- Career Planning- This class is a graduation requirement so I have to take it. I'm thankful that we don't have Mrs. Clott, cause I heard she was a real grinch!
Period 7- Algebra- Oh Mrs. Miller, the first time i stepped foot in that class I thought she was going to hate me, turns out I was wrong. She is hillarious! I mean really she is, like she told me to stay away from her daughters, she said I should be her Stardust date, o my, I love it! and today we got to eat dirt pudding, which was great!
So yeah those are my classes. Their not that bad, I'm hoping to take AP classes in the near future, so we'll see how that turns out to be!
Have A Great Day!

Snow place like home! :)
WELCOME!
So today started out as a great day. I woke up and got ready for school. This wasn't an ordinary day tho. Today was the first day of the last month of the year. It was 1st of December!, and today it actually snowed! So i was psyched for school! Any ways. What have I been up to lately? Well, I'm doing well in school now, no more "F's", plus less drama in my life so it's all good, oh did I mention I'm feeling all happy about December. You know why?- you're right! Cause Christmas is coming up! I got all the house decorations up, the lights and the tree up, the only thing left is the presents under the tree this year! Oh yes, it's about that time of year again. Where the grass is covered with white blankets of snow, where you here kids playing out in the cold weather, where you go home after school and drink hot chocolate and enjoy sitting out in front of the fireplace watching your fav. show! There is now place like home! O yeah- I love holidays like this! I hope it keeps snowing more towards Christmas. Who knows-- maybe a white Christmas this year?
Hope You Had A Great Day!
Stay Warm!

*sigh*
WELCOME!
So this weekend was pretty awesome! I mean Thanksgiving, Black Friday shopping, getting a new Wii console, getting a new HP laptop, and having guests over tonight- what a joy! Anyways, I titled this post "*sigh*" because of a couple of things. Since I have removed myself from the Facebook world, I have had a pretty flex schedule. I get to go to bed early now, I get homework done in time, I get to managed to do everything I need to do. I get to enjoy things a bit more. One of the bad things about not having Facebook anymore is talking to people.
I use to stay on around 1am or so, talking to a lot of people, staying up looking at people's statuses and stuff, and now I get to do none of those- which is pretty good I guess. So everyone asked me a couple of days ago why I deleted my account. I told them it's because of the girl that I liked. I mean yes I admit it, I still like Lauren Lehman. I will never be over her. Their is just something that I like that I can't get over about her. It all started on a Friday. It was the beginning of November and it was almost the Marching Band Banquet. I was going to go, but Lauren said "don't try to talk to me cause my parents think that you stalk me to much". So I deleted her from my Facebook and about 15 minutes later I said to myself, well Von why don't you just delete your account, I mean no one really talks to you, plus no one cares, so I did.
Life is hard, life isn't fair, life is harsh, but I pray everyday to the Good Lord, that he will change her mind about me before it is too late. *sigh* the story of my life, I wish things was different between me and her. I can only hope and pray. Hope and pray.
Have A Good Day Everyone!

Trick-or-Treat!
WELCOME!
This has probably one of the best Halloween ever! I started the day by waking up not going to school because it was Fall Break, so, what I did was when i woke up is i fixed my bed, ate breakfast, mom got home from work and i was excited for the night. During the day, i cleaned, watch television, took a shower and just chilled. Once 5:30 or so got here, Kris and Lathan came. They sat in my front porch and waited for me to come out. Michelle, Kris, Lathan and I went Trick-or-Treating. We got tons of candy! Then we took Michelle home, and when we decided we were bored, we went to the backyard and had a campfire in the fire pit.
We got warmed a little and we kept the fire running til 10pm. Around that time, we talked about all sorts of stuff. We had thee best and weirdest and most awkward conversation ever! Then Maddie and her sister came and they joined us. We ate chips, pop and all sorts of food. Then Maddie and her sister left, and Kris, Lathan and I chilled in my room for a couple of hours. Around 12 or so we went Teeping, Lathan brought 12 rolls! We saw a lot of cops passing by and Thank the Lord we didn't get caught. Then Kris said, one victim down, 2 more to go. We then went to sleep and woke up around 5. Around 5am we finished Teeping and then my mom got home, we said hi and we were off to McDonalds! Once we got to McDonalds, we got settled in and we all got our food. I only got Sweet iced tea and a mcgriddle since i wasn't hungry much. Then when we sat down to eat this one freaky lady was looking at me blushing! Kris, Lathan and I laughed so much we almost peed ourselves- disgusting as it may sound it was hillarious! Then we ate, talked for about an hour, then we headed back home. When we got home we got another little campfire until 10am, then they left, i cleaned the mess and took a nap! I didn't wake up til 5pm! hahaha! Day well spent!
Have A Great Day!

Fall Break!
WELCOME!
Monday- So Monday has been a great start to my 3 day week! It was the Callithumpian Parade! We got first place! This is all what happened, around 5pm we got ready in our Fall Uniforms, and 5:30 we got our pictures taken. We then loaded the bus and left to go to Decatur. When we got to Decatur, unloaded and we had to walk at like the end of Decatur or something cause it was far! I Think it was at Belmont. At Belmont, there was like a lot of bands! Then the parade started, it was so hot under that uniform, but after we started walking it felt cool cause the night got deeper. After the parade, we loaded up the bus, and we got something to eat. Rain and I got pop soda from the concession stand by the court house.
Then we waited for the results. During the results we were crossing our hands and just praying we got first place. Then they said "First place for the Class B for small region" and after they said that, o my gosh, South Adams was in tears of joy! We all got hugs and everything, picture taking and everything, and then we went home as a proud school. The following day the Seniors parade it to the office. The trophy was taller than I am! On the way home, Lauren, Sadie and I chatted. Once we got back, i was a bit disappointed cause no more seniors next year :(, and the people that are in Colorguard this yaer will not be their next year. O well, their will be a new set of students! Can't wait til next year :).
Tuesday- So Tuesday was the last parade for the Marching Band season. :(. This has been a great season filled with laughter, joy and excitement! I remember when we went to Purdue for Purdue Band Day, it was just awesome! and when we went to Ball State to see Adam Central get crushed by the Starfires- oh yeah! and when we went to Indiana Beach and we just played music and hung out, as i said, this has been a great season! So on Wednesday we lined up at the Mennonite Church, and the parade started! After the parade ended at Gathering House Bree, Rain, Haley and I got ready to go to Margie's house for a party.
We watch the movie "Drumline" it was a very nice movie. We had chips, and pop- the average American snack. Alli, Cam, Brett, Michael, Ben, Shiana, Megan, Erika, Ariana, Lindsay, Shauna, Rain, Haley, Enos, and I had a great time! Then the movie ended we chilled for about a couple of minutes and we left to go home. Marching Band was officially over. Sad day- but then again it was a blast! I can't wait til next year!
Have A Great Day!

Monday- So Monday has been a great start to my 3 day week! It was the Callithumpian Parade! We got first place! This is all what happened, around 5pm we got ready in our Fall Uniforms, and 5:30 we got our pictures taken. We then loaded the bus and left to go to Decatur. When we got to Decatur, unloaded and we had to walk at like the end of Decatur or something cause it was far! I Think it was at Belmont. At Belmont, there was like a lot of bands! Then the parade started, it was so hot under that uniform, but after we started walking it felt cool cause the night got deeper. After the parade, we loaded up the bus, and we got something to eat. Rain and I got pop soda from the concession stand by the court house.
Then we waited for the results. During the results we were crossing our hands and just praying we got first place. Then they said "First place for the Class B for small region" and after they said that, o my gosh, South Adams was in tears of joy! We all got hugs and everything, picture taking and everything, and then we went home as a proud school. The following day the Seniors parade it to the office. The trophy was taller than I am! On the way home, Lauren, Sadie and I chatted. Once we got back, i was a bit disappointed cause no more seniors next year :(, and the people that are in Colorguard this yaer will not be their next year. O well, their will be a new set of students! Can't wait til next year :).
Tuesday- So Tuesday was the last parade for the Marching Band season. :(. This has been a great season filled with laughter, joy and excitement! I remember when we went to Purdue for Purdue Band Day, it was just awesome! and when we went to Ball State to see Adam Central get crushed by the Starfires- oh yeah! and when we went to Indiana Beach and we just played music and hung out, as i said, this has been a great season!

Whattttta' Great Day!
WELCOME!
So pretty much this blog will be about what the title is. Today has probably been one of the best weekends of 2010! So here's a recap of my day. I woke up at around 5:40 got a cup of coffee and started my day. I started my day by going raking outside- crazy as it seems but it's actually fun. I get to see the sun rise! Then mom got back home from work and i greeted her. Then around 8 we called my grandma whose in the Philippines. I got my birthday wishes from them and I was actually pretty psyched!
Then we started our day! I was off for an adventure as my parents said. We first started out by going to the farmer's market at the Mennonite Church- since it was the last one for the year. We bought cake, snacks and pumpkins (again). Then we went back home and I got my presents. I got two new Aeropostle t-shirts, new pairs for tennis shoes, and a bunch of summer clothes! Then we were off to Fort Wayne! Once we got to Fort Wayne, mom went shopping and so i went with her and we got all sorts of great stuff from Sears and all that.
Then it was off to lunch! Mom asked if I liked mexican food and so i said yes. We then tried Carlo's O'Kelly's. Turned out they had amazing food! We ordered the quesadila or however you spell it, and for desert we had empanda cheesecake with ice- cream it was great! Then when dad was paying mom said that she was going to get me a cell phone but said she couldn't now so she will do it for Christmas present so I'm like sweet! I was stuffed when i left. But mom and dad said, the day isn't over yet. So i thought to myself well what else is their to do?? We ended up going to Crazy Pinz!
Oh Crazy Pinz we had so much fun at that place! Although i suck at bowling we ended up having a great time. First we checked in and got seated at like alley number 15, then the manager moved us to 24. Since we only checked in for an hour, the manager gave us an extra hour so my mom was like sweet, keep playing then! So yeah we ended up playing 3 games and one extra. Dad won since he is like a pro at it. Then Michelle came in second so forth. During the 3rd round or game or whatever mom was all sleepy and all so yeah- but she managed to still get 4th. And of course me the birthday kid got 5th! haha very funny- i know.
Then after a fun time at Crazy Pinz, their was even more suprise! We went to Meijers and got our weekly grocery and we went out to eat- again! This time it was at Ralley's Burgerplace. We got burgers and fries and everything. So yeah, but their was still one more suprise- i know it keeps getting better. Mom bought me a birthday cake!
Yes, she bought me a birthday cake from Dairy Queen! (I'll post pictures soon). It was one of those ice- cream cake, she knows i love them! I thought well then i get I get an ice- cream cake 3 years in a row now! I'm so happy. So yeah that was recap of my birthday. It was awesome! Very very fun and memorable! I love my parents and siblings so much! This has truly been an amazing birthday!
Hope you had a great day!
Have A Great Weekend!

Fun- Tastic Weekend!
WELCOME!
So today has been a great day! I woke up and I decided not to go to campus life breakfast today, i might go after marching band is over. Anyways, tonight the highlight of my day was the win against Woodlan. The score was 31-6! Good job boys! So.. tonight was also the last night for the seniors marching band and color guard. I remember when we were in Kokomo on our way back from Purdue, we were all sitting their eating and Ben Heckard was like "you guys are going to have to make this fun next year when were not here" and when he said that I was kinda sad, cause marching band was so much better than what i expected it to be. So back to the game.
At the game after the performance i hung out with Anie, Lauren, Jordan, Rain and a couple more people. I had so much fun! When it was time to go home Anie's mom Kenya gave me a ride home and my sister got a ride with Caroline. So when I got home I was kinda sad that it was the last home game and it was the last time I got to perform with the seniors but then I thought, next year would be so different without them but it's part of life we all have to move on somehow! Oh how I will miss all the seniors!
Have A Great Weekend!

After he said that I was just feeling down. I thought for a moment why don't i just leave, i mean i wasn't invited here. So then around 8:30pm i went to bed because i was all depressed. When I got to bed i feel asleep for about 2 hours or so and I woke up around 11. I went to use the bathroom and i went back to bed. I attempted to go back to bed but I just couldn't sleep. I was too busy thinking about what William said I mean really as much as people insulted me that is just a bit too far. So then some good friends of mine (Hannah and Maddie) told me that everything would be ok and for a moment there someone actually cares. So thanks to them I was all happy again, well not really happy but i wasn't as sad as I was. To this point i'm still a bit depressed but i'm feeling a bit better. It's so good to have friends who will always cheer you up!
Have A Great Weekend!

Wonderous Weekend
WELCOME!
So I woke up feeling happy because it was Friday and stuff. So I went to school and when i got out of school, Kris asked me if i wanted to walk home, so i said sure why not. As we were walking home we kinda hung out with Maddie for like 15 mins. We went to go and visit the Middle School (how i miss that place!). Then when Kris and I went to Mrs. Sprunger's room she just took out a box of cookies and let us have the rest, boy she was prepared! After that we then went home. As we were walking home we saw Larry. He was at Alpine Falls buying something or whatever. So after that we kept telling jokes about this and that, boy it was hillarious! I can't wait til tomorrow when we go to Ball State to see AC get beat! Go Starfires and to hang out with friends!
Have A Great Weekend!

Fall 2010
WELCOME!
So it looks like it's Fall already! The leaves are turning different colors. Orange, red and brown, the sounds of crunch when raking the leaves, the smell of pumpkin pie in the afternoons, the walks around the park with the breeze coming towards your face, yes it's time for fall again! So today since i had marching band this morning, i decided to take my bike to school, it was still dark out but o well. Then after school i headed back home. Kevin and I then went on a bike ride around town, we went to Kris', "snob hill", out by 000, to the school and back home again. As I was passing by this Swiss Town of mines, i could hear the sound of the Swiss music playing from The Gathering House, the smell of the food, and the sights that nature has to offer! This has truly been a great day! So if you have nothing better to do, go for a walk, a jog or a run it's easy and inexpensive!
Have A Great Day!

Realizing.....
WELCOME!
Today has been a very productive, yet tiring day! I went to bed at about 11pm last night and woke up at about 7:45 this morning to get ready for church. As I was getting ready for church i thought about something. I thought about how my life would look like in 15 years. I asked "will I be a priest at my own parish preaching Mass around this time?" or "am I going to be waking up my kids in the morning getting them ready to go to church?" The questions answer are hard to find. We'll just have to wait. Then on the car ride to church i thought why would i even have kids? I mean i'm not going to get married or anything. I can't get a girlfriend now so what made me think that i will ever get a wife?
So when I got to church, said my morning prayers are as I do every Sunday, and waited for the Mass to begin. So during the homily, i thought to myself again, what would happen in 15 years?, then I realized, i want to become a priest. I want to tell people the good news of the Lord. I want to preach the good news of the Lord. I want to be able to be called "Father". Then again I thought ... everyone hates me who would want to listen to me? As i sat their listening to the homily for about 20 minutes i thought hmm.. what will really happen to me? So then it was over and Mass and everything and so i stayed in the church (since Michelle and Fatima had Sunday School) and prayed. Prayed for World Peace, prayed for the end of stem cell research, prayed for the government and everything!
Then when I got home i finally made up my mind. No more checking out girls, no more liking girls- since i can't get any. I simply said to myself "enough is enough". I realized what i will simply do is just look and smile.
Hope you had a great day!

Hail Purdue!
WELCOME!
So today has probably been one of the best Saturdays ever! Started the day by waking up at around quarter til 4 because I had to get ready. After i got ready at around 4:20 or so my dad took me to school. At school went to the band room, packed the bass drum and loaded the bus. We were on our way to Purdue! As of course i sat by Lauren, and we talked for pretty much the whole time why everyone else was asleep. She was jamming out to Justin Beiber. Everyone started yelling at us telling us to shut up because they wanted to sleep!
We got to Purdue at about 8 or so. We unloaded and Daniel, Rain and I went with the percussion section. The band was huge! I mean the Purdue band had so much people, it was probably equivalent to the whole High School and Middle School put together. They had about 10 tuba players, 15 percussion players, about 100 horn players, i mean it was just loud! Then Dr. Tim Lautzenheiser rehearsed with us the music we had to play. After about an hour and a half of rehearsal it was over!
We then went to Slater Hill to watch the Purdue Jazz Band concert. It was a long walk to their! People took turns taking my drum. When we got their i brought 4 boxes of donuts and within 15 mins what I got in return was a thank you and 3 empty boxes! While watching the concert i talked to Anie, Sadie, and Lauren. We then watched the pep rally for the Boilers! It was so much fun!!
After the pep rally, we all went to the stadium. It was humongous! I mean literally you could like get lost in that place and not ever get found again! Once we got all settled in, Rain and I bought a pop. It was worth $7 since we had free refills for it. We watched the game til it was time for us to perform. We bug the crap out of Lauren, watched her flirt with Isaiah Amstutz. Then what do you know.. it was already time for half time! So we went out their and performed. We sounded great! I mean honestly we did for a band that had almost 30 school's present their with nearly 1,500 people we sounded great! After that we all got settled in and watch the rest of the game. Rain left cause his dad was their to pick him up. I was kinda sad cause then I had no one to hang out with.
After the game was over (did i mention Boilers won, 24- 13!), we all headed back to the bus and we were on our way back home to lovely Berne! On the bus ride back home we had so much fun! Lindsay Hoffman, Haley Bell, Lauren Lehman, Shiana Scott, Abby Grable, Shauna Sutton, Sadie Brock, Anie Habegger, Bree Caldwell and myself were all doing something random. We would sing songs just for fun! Make each other laugh! Tell silly jokes! Make fun of people! I mean really! You had to be their! We then stopped by Kokomo on our way home and ate. We had a choice of Subway, Burger King, and Arbys. I stayed at Burger King, Sadie, Lauren, Anie and I all sat at one table. We then went outside by the ice cream parlor, and some people bought ice cream. We were all sitting their laughing and having a good time!
Then we headed back home! We had like almost 2 hours left til we got back to Berne. We had such a great time! Today has been a great day! Perfect weather, enjoying a day with good friends, performing! This has been one great Saturday. Wonder what next week will bring when we go to Ball State for the SA vs. AC game? Probably something fun and memorable again!!
Hope you had a great day!
Quote of the Day:
"When people put you down, they don't have enough confidence in themselves"
So today has probably been one of the best Saturdays ever! Started the day by waking up at around quarter til 4 because I had to get ready. After i got ready at around 4:20 or so my dad took me to school. At school went to the band room, packed the bass drum and loaded the bus. We were on our way to Purdue! As of course i sat by Lauren, and we talked for pretty much the whole time why everyone else was asleep. She was jamming out to Justin Beiber. Everyone started yelling at us telling us to shut up because they wanted to sleep!
We got to Purdue at about 8 or so. We unloaded and Daniel, Rain and I went with the percussion section. The band was huge! I mean the Purdue band had so much people, it was probably equivalent to the whole High School and Middle School put together. They had about 10 tuba players, 15 percussion players, about 100 horn players, i mean it was just loud! Then Dr. Tim Lautzenheiser rehearsed with us the music we had to play. After about an hour and a half of rehearsal it was over!
We then went to Slater Hill to watch the Purdue Jazz Band concert. It was a long walk to their! People took turns taking my drum. When we got their i brought 4 boxes of donuts and within 15 mins what I got in return was a thank you and 3 empty boxes! While watching the concert i talked to Anie, Sadie, and Lauren. We then watched the pep rally for the Boilers! It was so much fun!!

I wish....
WELCOME!
So the past two days i've had a really bad day. The insults, the drama, this and that so I just took the time to sit down thinking about everything.
I wish..
I wasn't born
I didn't have to be here
I could leave
I could change the past
I could do things differently
I was gone
I was dead
Hmmm... if only that's how life works..
Have A Great Day Everyone!

Let the "ber" months begin!
WELCOME!
So as you guys know.. September starts the "ber" months! Now.. this means.. the cold months are here! Which sucks cause then we will be having all these delays and cancelations an then we will have to make them up at the end of the school year and it takes away from our summer time! So that sucks! Anyways.. so one of the worse things about September is that towards the end ... i will be out their in my yard trying to rake up all the fallen leaves! Which is sad.. but if i didn't do it.. who will? So yeah. The positive things is that let's see here, umm.. well i don't have to mow as often so that's good. That means i'll save money on gas!
Here's a nice poem i got off the internet for fall.
"Once more the liberal year laughs out
O'er richer stores than gems or gold:
Once more with harvest song and shout
Is nature's boldest triumph told."
- John Greenleaf Whittier

Friday Night Football!!!
WELCOME!
Whatta Friday it was! Let's see here, got up ready for school, to make my post shorter, went to my classes, and then went home. When i got home, i only had about less than an hour or so to get ready. When I got outside to water my garden, i saw Kevin walking to my house. The plan was when Kris got to my place we would go and pick up Kevin, but he came to my place. Anywho, after that Kris arrived and we left my place. We walked and talked about some of the weirdest things ever! When we got to school, we went to the Campus Life booth thingy and I ate a bratwurst. Then it was time for me to go to the band room, to rehearse and then Kris and Kevin went in to the field.
When we got to the field i was kinda nervous but amazed by how much people would show up their! So we played the pre game and stuff and then went to the stands. Once we got to the stands, i hung around til the 2nd quarter. Then half- time. During half time we played our songs and stuff and then i left to hang out with Kevin and Kris! Boy, their was a lot of drama from 8th graders! Bout how this girl and this guy like each other, but can't go out. And how this one girl is all jealous, i was like goodness, grow up! Luckily their are no drama in HS.. yet. So after that, I saw the score and it was like 21-14 and im like yes! were winning.
Then the game ended and stuff, did I mention SA lost by like 7 points.. o well close game! Then Kris, Kevin and I were walking to the park. Then we saw these two hot Belmont girls!. They were freaking lesbians-- disgusting you might say but hot! One was about 16 and the other was about 17. We knew they were lesbians cause they were walking around in short shorts, holding hands, and smacking each others butt! We should have told them to kiss! Then when we got across Highway 27, Kris mom picked him up their and Kevin and I walked home. Whatta Friday i tell you! I can't wait til Homecoming!
Have A Great Day!
Have A Good Weekend!

A very execrate, despise, hateful day...
WELCOME!
Prayer For The Living
by Kevin Rose
Why does the thought of death
The feeling of ending this life
The torture, the pain, the hurt
The discomfort I cause,
Why does it feel so right?
But the thought of the pain
The mechanics, the method
The hows and wherefores..
Why is that so beyond me,
my abilities, My confidence?
I know I would be better dead
All I care for is others
All I do is hurt others
All I want to do is leave others
To their lives away from me
Is my inability from caring?
Knowing the final act of hurt
The final ability to screw others
To give those who truly care
A pain even I haven't done before?
But they would recover
And they could see it was done
Maybe not consciously, but truly
For the best for them
And therefore the best for me.
Is it fear that stops me?
The inability to take the pain
I couldn't inflict on myself
The yellow man I am,
The quitter, never finishing the Job
So I carry on to conceal the feelings
Trying to do all I can for all
And still I hurt and give pain
Cause confusion wherever I go
That is why I pray to die.
So.. i only decided to post this on here because i feel as if nothing is ever going right anymore. I think to myself.. what should i do?.. for all i can do.. is sit and watch.. No one likes me.. Most people hate me, throw pebbles at me, insult me, cuss at me, push me, slap me or maybe even try kill me , and yet I'm happy with that.
Have A Great Day Everyone!

Rocky Point Park!
Well I took many many pics.. but that's all i can't all blog bout on here.. so yeah.. well school starts Monday! High School!!! All i have to say is, i had a BLAST at Canada with family!

Quote of the Day:
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

Welcome Back!
So from yesterday's post.. here are some more pics!
Some random bridge we crossed..
Some random mansion we passed. It was for sale! So we pulled over and asked. The realtor said it was 8 bed and 8 bath. 3 garage, huge masterbed, kitchen and living room. Home Theater in the basement. Pool, spa and tennis court in the back yard. You can get all this for $2,600,000 Canadian dollars.
Here is another random mansion we passed. It was also for sale! So again we pulled over and asked. The people living their said that this house has 5 bed and 4 bath. It has 4 garage and a huge kitchen and living room. However, it doesn't have a home theater like the first one i showed you. It does have a pool and tennis court in the back yard. You can get all this for only $1,450,000 Canadian dollars!
Another mansion in the same living room. This one wasn't for sale but i went up and told the owners i work for a company and they fell for it! What idiots! Anyways, they said their house was worth $875,000. It has 5 bed and 5 bath. Living room, and a huge dining room. A back yard balcony in the back and it has a 2 car garage. This is cheaper, and much smaller.. i prefer the 1st mansion don't you?
Me and my Canadian cousin- Hazel Mae!
Well that's part 2 of my "Longest Blog Post Ever!", come back tomorrow to see part 3!
Have a Good Day!

I'm going to take my time off blogging for now because i will be traveling and won't have time to be updating this. But what i do have to say is that Summer 2010 rocked! I had a blast! staying up late, bonfire with family, marching band, swimming at the public pool and just enjoying the summer days! <--- (notice i didn't say with friends). I remember the last day of school and how i still think that it was just yesterday! Good times! Good times! Well that's how life is when your having fun! So as summer is coming to an end, i just want to say that this summer was probably one of the best summers ever!
Enjoy the rest of your vacations!
Have A Good Day!

One Word: Life!
WELCOME!
Today I am going to tell you about one of the most important things their is in the world. Life. I mean yes this might be a boring blog but who cares?.. Anyways, i decided to talk about life because today when i was at Indiana Beach i realized.. why did i have to be born?.. was i brought to this world for a purpose or what? Day-by-day, i feel like people are always against me for something i didn't do. They talk behind my back, they talk like i don't have class and i hate when people do that. They act like they are your friend when they are around you, but when you are somewhere else, their nothing but a hater, perpetrator, liar. I honestly don't know what to do anymore. I feel like no one needs me, i have no friends, nothing at all. They use me everyday for something "can you do this", "can you do that".
People tell me i don't exist, that i am foreign and that i live from a far away no where. They say i have no life and that i just need to die- which is true for the most part, but i realized that when i'm gone, my family will be torn apart and that it wouldn't feel right at my residence without me, but in public it would be nothing, seems like nothing ever occurred. My social life is different from others. I don't go hanging out with people. I just stay on the computer talking to people. I obviously have no life. People make mistakes right? No one is perfect right?.. well you know what.. the biggest mistake my mother ever made was give birth to me 14 years ago!
Hope you had a great day!

Today I went to the pool to cool off and then went to the doctors for dad's monthly checkup. After the doctors we headed to Kohls!
Here are some of the shoes that we bought:

100th Post!
WELCOME!
So this is my 100th post! Yay! hahahaha. Anyways, today i woke up and i was feeling a little better. Yesterday i went home because I was feeling sick. During Marching Band i almost puked and my head hurts, so i told Margie and Mr. Amstutz that i was going to go home. So they told me that I could. So I called my mom and told her to come pick me up. While i was waiting for my mom i saw Jon Beck walking to school. I asked him where he was going and he said to summer school. And I'm like is it fun and he said heck yeah it's more fun than actual school. See i wouldn't know if it was fun or not because in my life i have never been to summer school. So back to me. Where was I?.. o yeah now when I got home i went directly to bed and I passed out. I remember going to bed from around 9 and when i woke up it was like 12 or so because it was time for me to drink my medicine. Then I went back to bed after that and when i woke up it was about 6pm! so i was like sweet mercy!
Then during supper, I wasn't in the mood to eat, so i didn't i just drank juice and medicine and i was feeling all dizzy still but i manage to log into Facebook for a little while. After Facebook, I went to my room and tried to get some rest but I couldn't since i already slept for about 12 hours! So i finally went to bed at about 12am or so. I was stuck in my room for about an hour or so doing nothing. Well i drew a little and looked at the yearbook. So yeah.. today I am feeling much better, im not dizzy anymore and also no headache! Thank God
Hope You Had A Great Day!

One Of The Best Days!
WELCOME!
So this is my 98th post.. i mean i haven't really had a blog for 6 months, yet im already on my 98th post, so yeah i feel proud of myself for accomplishing such thing. Anyways, today here is what I did. Since it was First Friday/Saturday i went to the Vigil thing at Saint Sebastian in Ohio, but since mom and dad and Faith and Michelle couldn't go i went. I was excited! I mean honestly 12 hours of no sleep because of Adoration is worth it! I mean no other kid my age would want to stay that long trust me. Anyways, so I got home from the Adoration Vigil at about 8 well it ended at 7 but you know we talked to the priest and all. So after we did that we headed back to the person who was in charge of me (Dr. Carlos and Melanie Baytion). So they fed me breakfast and they took me home.
When I got home I thought it was around 11 or 12 but turns out it was only about 9:30. So yeah we talked for a while and when they left I was tired! I told my mom to wake me up at around 1 or so when it was lunch time.. but no.. i woke up at 5:30! I mean really I wasn't even that tired and I slept that late. So yeah that was pretty much my weekend. It was probably one of the best days of summer.. I am not looking forward for next months First Friday/ Saturday Vigil!
Hope You Had A Great Day!

Where Did Time Go!?
WELCOME!
So today is the last day of the 1st half of the semester.. also known as the first 6 months of 2010 has gone by! I mean really, where has time gone? I remember sitting on 31, December, 2009 waiting for 12am and now the year is almost over! Can you believe it? So anyways, today was a pretty great day. Started the day by watching the Inauguration of the new Philippine president Noynoy Aquino, and I think in his 6 years term, he will turn the country to the right direction as he said he will carry his parents legacy, which is a good thing! Anyways, so after that I went to sleep and when I woke up it was time to take my sisters to swimming practice. After that i cleaned the house a little and then for some reason it was time to pick them up again!
Then I got on Facebook and a former teacher Ashley Koons told me this crap and that crap blah blah blah and it got me thinking.. if she hates me, I wonder if everyone else does? So I ended up deleting my Facebook account -- yes this time it is for real. Anyways, after I came home from that cleaned, ate and headed to the pool. At the pool i hung out with Scott, Corey, and Stephen. We had so much fun! At around 4pm when Stephen and his family left, Scott and I decided to leave so we did. While we were walking we stopped by Kelli's place (she is neighbor) and talked for like 5 minutes. Then Scott went home and i went home. When i got home changed shorts, took shower and i mowed the front yard, it looks great now! After that I went inside and took a break. So now the rest of the night i'm probably going to go and chill with family, hang out with them and just have fun!
Hope You Had A Great Day!

Renovation.. Day 2
so today here is what happened. As i told you from yesterday's post that we are renovating the family room/ computer room. Here is what happened today. Since mom told me to take the foam out I did and that we should just leave it out you know, but today we actually did a good job! (Please note that mom and I are doing this, but mainly i'm her engineer, contractor, construction worker) So woke up at 6:15, went upstairs to wake up mom and i kinda fell asleep. Woke up it was 7am so i was like geez! and she was like get up, and get ready big day ahead of us. So I did as i was told, i made coffee and toast and mom and I sat in the kitchen eating breakfast. Then after breakfast we got right to work! We installed about 6 rows of flooring in less than 5 hours! We took a break around 12pm to eat. We returned back to work at around 12:45pm. Then around 1 mom was like, "Soap Operas are on, hurry up and plug the television cord in i want to watch "Days of Our Lives", so i did and boy what an episode!- not getting into details.
Around 3, we stopped for some ice- cream because it was break time, 15 minutes later we went back to work! We worked until about 6:10 til dad got home and told us to stop working because we are tired and to just finish it up tomorrow. So tomorrow we will hopefully get everything done and put things back where they belong. But i have decided to change the arrangement so yeah.. Today was an exhausted, tiring and long day! After a total of 11 hours working we got a total of 24 rows of laminate hard wood floors! But- oh not theirs a but, were not finished yet...
To Be Continued....
Hope you had a great day!

Renovation
WELCOME!
So a couple of weeks ago when we went to Cincinnati, my parents bought this laminate wood flooring thing to put in our family room/ computer room. We had taken out the carpet and was about to install that in. A couple of days ago my mom was like no it's not time to renovate it you know, i'm not in the mood plus i don't like the colors of the floor and stuff. She opened the box of the floor and she said that she loved it and why we didn't start of renovating the family room/ computer room the next day we bought it. So i told my mom well i told you so and she is all like i should have listened to you and stuff. So now mom was like she is willing to pay me from $30- 50 depending on how great i do my job.
So today i took everything out, the computer and stuff and stuffed it all in the garage! Thank the Lord for our garage. Anywho... so i did that and i stripped the carpet off. Under the carpet was a foam thingy and some white thingy that looked like spider webs, it was creepy.. kinda. So mom was like ok, here's the plan you hammer and lock the floors in while i plan them out so they go in evenly. So i did that. Then dad came home and was like why didn't you take out the foam. It is all squishy and stuff and i do not like it! So mom was like.. you dad does not like it neither do I so take it all apart and put it back it. 4 hours later, after we (as in me and mom) put in the floors, she was like i dont like it either. So after a total of 6 hours we finally started on working on the floors. We started at about 10am and we worked for about ehhh... 4 hours. Around 2:30 ate lunch and cleaned stuff and then around 3:15 got back to working. We finished around 5:45 yesterday, but what do i say?.. we weren't even half way their! what happens next? who knows? we'll find out tomorrow.....
To Be Continued....
Have A Great Day!

A couple of days ago my mom was like no it's not time to renovate it you know, i'm not in the mood plus i don't like the colors of the floor and stuff. She opened the box of the floor and she said that she loved it and why we didn't start of renovating the family room/ computer room the next day we bought it. So i told my mom well i told you so and she is all like i should have listened to you and stuff. So now mom was like she is willing to pay me from $30- 50 depending on how great i do my job.
So today i took everything out, the computer and stuff and stuffed it all in the garage! Thank the Lord for our garage. Anywho... so i did that and i stripped the carpet off. Under the carpet was a foam thingy and some white thingy that looked like spider webs, it was creepy.. kinda. So mom was like ok, here's the plan you hammer and lock the floors in while i plan them out so they go in evenly. So i did that. Then dad came home and was like why didn't you take out the foam. It is all squishy and stuff and i do not like it! So mom was like.. you dad does not like it neither do I so take it all apart and put it back it. 4 hours later, after we (as in me and mom) put in the floors, she was like i dont like it either. So after a total of 6 hours we finally started on working on the floors. We started at about 10am and we worked for about ehhh... 4 hours. Around 2:30 ate lunch and cleaned stuff and then around 3:15 got back to working. We finished around 5:45 yesterday, but what do i say?.. we weren't even half way their! what happens next? who knows? we'll find out tomorrow.....
To Be Continued....
Have A Great Day!

Hope and Dreams swept away.........
I have decided to write this post because i keep getting these comments from people saying that i can' be who i want to be in life. They are probably true for the most part, however, no one can stop me from being successful. But with all the comments and hate i get everyday, yeah i can not be what i want to be when i grow up. People say that i am a waste of their time and that they regret meeting me. Some people (not mentioning any names) say that i should just die in a hole. Their probably right i should. This is the quote that i live by every single day of my life.
"Just remember, the same as a spectacular Vogue magazine, remember that no matter how close you follow the jumps: Continued on page whatever. No matter how careful you are, there's going to be the sense you missed something, the collapsed feeling under your skin that you didn't experience it all. There's that fallen heart feeling that you rushed right through the moments where you should've been paying attention. Well, get used to that feeling. That's how your whole life will feel some day. This is all practice. None of this matters. We're just warming up."
- Chuck Palahniuk
This quote helps me survive my everyday life. Apparently this quote means nothing to me now! I am worthless, useless, and stupid! Everyone hates me. As they would say I am just a "simple" person. Nothing special about me. It's true tho.

Pretty Relaxing Day
WELCOME!
so today was a pretty relaxing laid- back typical type of day. I woke up and found out that sisters didn't have swimming practice because of the rain so Thank God i got to sleep in for an extra hour or so. Then after that i got on the computer and checked some stuff. After that since it was raining i stayed inside and cleaned a little bit, but instead of cleaning a lot i pretty much did what i want. So all i had to do was wash the dishes and that's about it. I watched television, did some yard work, cleaned the garage, and that's about it i didn't get to do a lot of things, but i still enjoyed this day. This thing they call "summer in the sun" yeah right i heard it was going to rain all week! Whatta kick off to summer i tell you!
Have A Great Day!
Quote of The Day:
"Men best show their character in trifles, where they are not on their guard. It is in the simplest habits, that we often see the boundless egotism which pays no regard to the feelings of others and denies nothing to itself."
-Arthur Schopenhauer

Ohh Happy Day!
WELCOME!
so Monday was a happy day at least for someone it was. So recap of my day first. Woke up and took my sisters to swim practice. Since i am so use to waking up 7 am i woke them up and got ready to take them to the pool. Anywho, once i took them their i saw Kyle Moser aka Donut or Disease- inside joke and i saw Victoria Richardson.. i thought they were dating and all but they were like no were not dating and stuff besides Kyle has a girlfriend and time Victoria said that i was like what in the world? he can get a girl but i can't! What is going on with this world? Why can't i get a girl? .. actually you can't blame the kid.. he's probably dating a first grader! hahahahahahahahah i am so mean. Anywho moving on.. after that i went home cause i was tired. When i got home i was going to pull weeds but something else caught my attention! If you guessed mess you were right! i was cleaning like crazy.. it's actually fun you guys should try it sometimes!
After a couple of hours cleaning i went outside and did a bunch of yard work. I pulled some weeds, i didn't mow tho = ( and i finished Michelle's "tree house" well at least tried to (just for your information i still needed about $10.00 for material but o well) After cleaning and mowing it was finally time to go in and get ready for lunch. Then after lunch Kevin and I biked to the other side of town by 000. Found out Kris wasn't home boy were we pissed! We were like we went out their for nothing! After that we went by Josh Beagley's house aka - The Druggy. It was by EP Graphics. Then we saw Ashley and Chris I. biking by their so we are like stalkers! hahaha good times. Then we biked to the park and stuff and then we decided to go to "snob hill" but it was a long way their so we gave up and just went home. Then it was about supper time, ate supper and went to the park. Found out their was a game but no one was their to hang out with so yeah .. tragic! and went back home.
Whatta Monday!
Have A Great Day!
