2.) Why sometimes our blessings seem a disaster for us?

We always want to be showered by blessings. Blessings are showered to chosen people and those people don't expect those blessings to come. Almost all of us think that blessings always have a positive effect. Of course, that's what we expect! I beg to disagree but these blessings sometimes have a negative effect.

Chosen people who are showered with blessings thought that they are always lucky. Yeah, they are lucky but not free. They are not free from the eyes of the people around them. We people tend to be envious of what other have. We can't deny the fact that we become jealous of others for they have more blessings. Due to this, sins are committed. First of all, people around us plan on how to ruin us. Once they have ruined us, some are not yet contented on what they have done. They still try to steal some of our property - some valuable things. The worst thing is that they kill some of our loved ones especially those who are really important and very special to us.

Sometimes, our blessings seem a disaster for us. They are temptations for other people. We must be contentec of what we have. We must thank people who showered and continues to shower us blessings.

JanTen

I had a countdown before her birthday comes. We were texting each other until her very special day begins. I greeted her a Happy Birthday. We slept after the countdown.

When I woke up early in the morning and we already texted each other. I asked permission to my parents before going to their house and as what I expexted , they'll be permitting me to go. I prepared my things. I took a bath and fixed myself after wards. I wrote a letter for her. It was somewhat rushed because I was about to go to them.

I left our house. I bought a cake and ice cream to serve as a gift to her. I waited for some vehicles which will go in Maragondon but I haven't found one so I decided to go in Naic and from there to Ternate. I arrived in their house at almost 3 pm. She felt bad that's why I apologized and promise not to do that anymore. We rested first. Then, one of our friends texted her that they'll be coming. He said that they were 11. At first, we don't believe but when he said that they already arrive we knew that he was not joking. They ate some food and we knew that some of them were really hungry after their practice.

We went near the shore as what they wished. We just walked there and told stories to each other while the others were busy playing with each other. We watched the sunset. After some time, we decide to go back because it was starting to get dark.

We rested as we arrived in their house. After a few minutes, they already went home. I ate my dinner with them. We ate ice cream as our dessert. After some time, We rested. I also told them that I would leave because it was already night.

I really had fun this day! I'll miss this day so much!

The Fiesta!

It was the fiesta of Ternate this day. I was invited by a special friend to go in their house. I already asked my parents about that and they permitted me. I was very excited this day because of that. I was waiting for that every subject. The teachers were so busy this time that's why we just did some seatworks and some tasks given to us.

When the day ends, we prepared ourselves. I went with her and with my friend. We were the last one to ride. When we were in the town proper, we decided to walk due to a heavy traffic. We walked very fast and we were able to reach their house first. We were somewhat tired after that walk. Some of the friends she invited also arrived after some time. We decided to get food last. We ate together and had fun with each other.

It was already seven o'clock in the evening when they decided to go home. We accompanied them in the town proper and we went back when they already ride the jeep. We ate some desert when we arrived. We also watched the procession and the "palma" before we went home.

When I arrived home, I rested for awhile and not knowing that I was already asleep.

New Year, New Life

Three hundred sixty five days was almost over. Another three hundred sixty five days was coming. We were having a countdown for the upcoming new year!

I just ate some food served in tour table. I just talked with some people outside our house so that I won't be bored. After some time, I went in our house and go to bed. I was not in the mood that time so I decided to sleep for awhile. I just texted for few minutes and I got bored. I tried to sleep again. When I woke up, it was already very noisy outside. I went to our terrace to look what's happening. I saw the fireworks display which amazed me. But because of the smoke I wasn't able to enjoy. I felt that I would have an asthma that time.

I went down our house and join the people outside. Some were shouting, making noise, some dancing, singing, and all of them were smiling. I just look at the beautiful sky wherein fireworks were diplayed. It was so nice! After that, I opened our computer and turned it of after viewing something.

I texted her and greeted her a Happy New Year. I couldn't sleep anymore. I just reminisced those things happened in the past year. I remembered and promised to do my NYRs. I sat on my bed and afterwards I felt sleepy so I decided to sleep.

An Unexpectable Special Day

This day I just wake up the normal time that I do. I ate my breakfast. I also checked my phone for some messages. I remembered that I have a schedule this day. So, I ask permission to my parents and they allowed me. I took a bath afterwards. I texted her that I was about to go. Before I go, I fixed myself first and made sure that everything is ready.

I went there and arrived after 12 o'clock in the afternoon. We met in near National Bookstore. Then, they decided to go in Quantum to play. Her cousins played as well as we did. After that, we started walking around the mall. We accompanied her cousins in buying and looking for the things they wanted. While doing so, we were talking to each other so we won't be bored. After sometime, they told us that we just walk by our own because they felt that we were bored but actually we were not that. We went in the Department Store because she told me that she'll buy a gift for her cousins so we walked around. She haven't found any gift. We roamed around and noticed that we already gone that place so we decided to go in the 3rd floor. We just told stories to each other about the one happened during Christmas.

After roaming around, we went in the Supermarket to buy some food that we will be eating while watching the movie. We laughed and laughed because of her cousins who were so nice to be with. I liked them because they were friendly. While they were paying, we went to some of our friends outside. We just talked to them for awhile and we already separated after sometime.

We watched Despedas 2. The film was so nice and so funny that's why we enjoyed watching it. After watching we separated from her cousins and we went in quantum and played. We played Time Crisis and the racing. We really had fun playing those and bonding to each other.

After that we went home. Something good happened before going home. They bought some food for their parents and we went home afterwards.

Craziest Christmas Ever

They said Christmas is just for children. They said Christmas is about receiving gifts. But I said, that Christmas is for all of us and it's not about receiving gifts, instead, it's about giving gifts and sharing our blessings to everyone!

I woke up late in the morning. This was the first time that I failed to hear mass during Christmas day. After waking up, I checked my cellphone and saw that I have received many messages. I ate some food and went straight to our store. I waited until one of them finished what they were doing. The people in our house was so busy of something. When my mother arrived, she cooked some food and we ate. We greeted each other a Merry Christmas. After those, I prepared because we will be visiting some of our relatives near to us to greet them a Merry Christmas too.

We went to our grandparents' house. We stayed their for few minutes. We had some picture taking there. We chatted with each other. We cracked jokes as what we were known for. We decided where to go this Christmas. Lastly, we greeted our grandparents a Merry Christmas. Before leaving, we were given some money. We did the same thing when we go to our aunts' and uncles' houses.

After visiting some of our relatives, we went to our house to eat our lunch. We decided to go in Star City so we got ready. We traveled for two hours before we reached our destination. We saw that the line was so long that's why we decided just to go in MOA. But before that, we ate first in the parking lot.

In the parking lot, we chatted to each other. We were so bored and sad because we were not able to enter Star City because of the very long line. We just ate again to forget about that one and we had fun because it was His birthday.

When I noticed that it was very quiet, I decided to do something. I pretended that our father was calling. I acted seriously so that they wouldn't notice that I was just pretending. My older brother got the phone and called my younger brother many times. He decided to answer the phone. When he answered, he told me that nobody was answering him. From that time, I told them that I was just kidding. We all laughed at each other. My brother told us something which made as laugh even louder. This was the craziest Christmas I ever had.

After that, we went to MOA. We witnessed the fireworks display which was so nice! We just bought something in MOA and we went to Mcdo to eat. After that, we went home and remembered our craziest Christmas ever!

Best Christmas Party Ever

This is the most awaited party of the students during December. And of course, I was waiting for this event to come and it came!

I woke up early in the morning because there were many things to fix like my things. I went to school early because I was really excited for this party.

When I arrived in school, I saw the T-shirt they made for our section. It was really cool and we loved it! We decided to wear it in the afternoon. I fixed my locker and started chatting with some of my classmates. Some were already giving their gifts. I received one of those which I liked very much!

Atlast, the program started. The program was composed of some games, performance of the Saliw and the Competition - the Chorale Competition. We had fun during the program, there were lots of games played and enjoyed by the students. We were fascinated by the performance of the Saliw members. The Chorale Competition was the most awaited event that time. The Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors will be competiting in the said competition. The Juniors was victorious in this competition. This was the third time that the Juniors defeated the Seniors this school year. That was Great!

During lunch, I ate with some of my friend and a special friend of course. We ate at the same time and had fun chatting with each other. After eating we went back to school. After some time we saw each other again when we're about to go home.

I went home to get the baked macaroni that will be eaten later on after the party. I tasted some before I went back to school. When I arrived, my friends rushed to me and we went to our room. We fixed our hair as what we were doing in the past years during Christmas party. We went out afterwards.

I sat wit h her of course. We enjoyed watching the games played by our batchmates and the presentation presented by each section. When it was already our turn, I was so nervous because this time, I would play a role in our presentation. As they said, no one is KJ. I just did my part. It was the first time I would do this one. Even though I was nervous, I just did it and enjoyed what I was doing. When we were presenting, I don't know what I was feeling but after we presented. I felt great.

After that, we went to our room. A child called me "Kulas". I just smiled because of that. After the program. We ate a lot. We ate the food in our room and we had our exchange gifts. After that, we had our picture taking. We also attended the flag retreat.

We really had fun that time. I stayed with her after the flag retreat. We had our gifts exchanged. We waited for some friends. I accompanied her walking to the place where she was riding.

That was the best Christmas party I have ever had!
