The Perfect Memorial Day Weekend

This Memorial Day Weekend has been so much fun. It was filled with a lot of activities and it sucks that it has to end.

On Saturday I had breakfast at the Pancake House with Will, Kat, PB, and Tina. Had to wait a while to get seated but it was worth the wait. Will tried to hook me up with someone again. He was trying to get me to talk to our waitress, but I don't think I could ever do that. Then later I headed to Will's place to watch the Lakers game. The outcome was the one flaw in my weekend. Hahaha.

Then on Sunday I went to church and had Tech Crew. After service all of the youth and a group of adults headed to Mission Bay for the Day. We stayed out there all day and played football, frisbee, and bocce ball (the old man game according to PB). We were all out there till 9 and then the sprinklers came on, which was crazy! We had to rush to move everything into the street so that everything wouldn't get wet. It was fun though.

Then today I went to get dim sum with some of my roommates. Nothing is better than Asian food. Then I went to go see Star Trek with Kat. The movie was really good and better than I had expected. After the movie, Kat and I went to go meet up with PB and Tina at Cadao for dinner. After we had finished eatting, Jerry and Grace walked in and then joined us. We ended up staying and talking to them until they had finished their dinner. After dinner PB, Tina, Jerry, Grace, and I all went bowling at Mira Mesa Bowl. It was really fun and Jerry and Tina almost got the curve down. Nice job! I really should buy a ball and shoes since I want to go bowling so much. Hahaha

Well that was my recap. Hope it was entertaing.

Coming Up On 3 Years!

I am about to finish another semester at SDSU (the better school) and I recently realized that I have been in San Diego for almost 3 years now. It is so crazy how fast time flies. I moved in August of 2006 and August 2009 is only a few months away. As I look back at the past 3 years, I am happy to say that I love where I am at right now. I have done my best in school and plan to continue to do so. I have also found a church that is one in a million and really don't know where I would be without the people there. It truly is another family that I have come to love.

I still remember the days when I would just go to Margie and Rafa's in the morning to go to church with them. To be honest, I dreaded going because I just always felt lazy and that I didn't need it. I would make up excuses, such as homework or my alarm clock didn't go off, to get out of going to church. I think the first time I actually hung out with people from Experience was when Taylor invited me over to his place for lunch and a movie. I was really on and off with Experience for probably about the whole year of 2007, which is pretty sad.

The thing that allowed me to be where I am today was the invite that PS gave me to his LTG. Ever since joining the LTG, my life has completely changed. I am still growing but I am definitely a better person ever since joining the LTG.

So, thank you to all of those who I have met at Experience because even though you may not know it, you have shaped me into the person that I am today.

Second Chance

I was looking through some old high school stuff and I found this old poem that I wrote. I just felt like posting it but keep in mind that it is corny because I was still in high school haha. Well here it is.

These last few years have gone by so fast,
And it is so hard to reflect on what happened in the past.
You have no idea how many tears I cried,
I wanted us to be, but you had no idea how hard I tried.
Even though you wouldn't give me the time or even a galnce,
I am willing to give this a second chance.
If you want this as much as I do,
Then I promise I will never let you go.
I will always be by your side,
And if you ever get lost, I will be your guide.
I hope with all of my heart that you want this too,
Because I don't want to have a heartbreak number two.
I promise I will treat you like every man should,
And I'll love you more than any man could.
So please give me a second chance,
Because I think I deserve a second glance.

*This no longer applies to the person it was meant for

Back To the Basics

The past few weeks I feel as if I have fallen off in my walk. I'm just not doing what I should be doing. And instead of admitting that it is my fault, I am going to blame it on school. I have allowed myself to be "too" consumed when it comes to school. I have let it take over things that I have done in the past few weeks. So I am going to try my best to start concentrating on God again from this point on. Hopefully I can get back on track since there is only a little over a week left in school. I am also planning to do SOD after school is over, so I am looking forward to where I will be in the next few months. So I am trying to get back on the right path in my walk. Hope all goes well.

Seems Long

The last week and a half has been one of the longest of my life. Last Wednesday, the 22nd, I was playing basketball and turned my ankle. It sucked because I haven't turned an ankle in forever. The better part is that since I am a guy I decided to keep playing on it. So I couldn't pretty much walk on Thursday and Friday, just ended up hopping everywhere. It has gotten a lot better but I still can't run and if I move it wrong it hurts.

Then last night on the way up to my apartment, I caught my foot with the gate. It took some skin of the back of my ankle, but its okay now.

Then to top everything off, this morning I locked my keys in my car at school. I don't know how I even did it. I thought I had my keys with me but as soon as I closed the door I realized what I did. I lucked out though because when I called AAA they said that someone else called from the same structure. So I only had to wait about 30 minutes. I got a little scared because this was before 8 am and I had a test at 9 am. But everything worked out.

So this has been one of the longest weeks of my life. So glad it is the weekend.

Oh and by the way, the Bulls forced a game 7. WOOOOOOOOOO
