Silly Thoughts

What if you could not smile for one day (dare)?
Imagine someone counting down the start.

I would laugh. No way Jose!
 
 Just a silly thought I had this morning.



Random occurrence.
A couple of months ago, at church, I was sitting in the second row alone for a little while before Mass started. I couldn't help but notice the old couple sitting in front of me. They were just adorable. The husband wore a blue jacket, while the wife wore a red blouse. A woman wearing a purple blouse sat in the pew across from us. The sitting arrangement was just perfect. From my view, I saw blue on the left, red on the right, and purple in the center.If I remember something from my childhood painting days, is that when you mix red and blue, the paint turns purple . Like the symbol of unity in marriage. Do you get what I mean? :] Ah so great!
Guess what else?! This happened during Lent.

Thank you God for the little things that can make a person smile. 
 If this made you smile. I feel like this post was worth being published. If not, disculpame.

Happy Thursday!

Freeze the moment

I should be packing right now...but I have been wanting to post for such a long time.

Forgive me.

Packing? On-campus housing college kids are kicked out after finals...ayayay ;)

BUT, there is a bigger news. A new plan. God's plan. And like always, I fight it in the beginning because I see it as unfair but luckily, it only lasts for so long.Then I can understand that God loves me (and you) so much, that His plans are just bigger than what I (and you) could ever imagine.

With that being said. I decided to accept the facts and enjoy the time with my friends. Cherish, because at points I forget to.

I made a bucket list of things to do, which I will be posting later.

    Discovery, do you copy?

    April 16, 2012. Discovery says one last goodbye to the Kennedy Space Center and flies to its new home.
    Dulles International Airport
    Ever since the 1960's discovery of space shuttles, dreamers around the world expanded and develop their career hopes.

    When asked: What do you want to be when you grow up?
    They said: Astronauts! 


    Although some changed their mind as they discovered new talents and fields, some kept the hope that someday they would have such opportunity. But recently, it seems that the hope has become so thin as some believe that the future does not hold many spots for astronauts in the US. Although it seems that private companies are the first in line at the moment, I believe that there is still hope.

    Amy's story: Three days ago, I checked my e-mail to see if I had won a ticket to see the space shuttle arrive. I didn't win. Two days ago I received a message from a friend inviting me to come watch the space shuttle arrive at the airport. One day ago, I watched the most amazing landing of a Boeing 747 carrying a space shuttle. Today, I am still trying to take it all in.

    If motivation was like a rechargeable battery, then the motivation I am carrying right now is fully charged!




    I thank God for the miracle of surprises. It held a very powerful message this time:

    Don't give up.

    Specially when the future looks like a blur.

    This yellow balloon girl is not going to give up when the tide gets high. I might be that student who always leaves the class labs last, takes the full class time to finish exams, asks the very basic questions, etc, but I am alright with that.
