Friday Friday Friday.
The day that everyone looks forward too. The day that brings great joy and happiness to everyone. Exciting times. My Friday is not what i wanted it to be though. I'm tight down with a project that i cannot get my hand to finish it. I do not know why i cannot put myself to finish it. This is just not me. The crazy thing is due on Monday morning when i get a presentation to the whole class.
This is really not me. Not how i like to do stuff.
Besides all my worries and problem, i want to share a amazing video. This speaker that came to my school is wonderful preacher. I always enjoy his messages. The way he goes through each chapter by chapter. Telling real details of the topic at hand. He takes God joyfully seriously. I want give you the chance to hear him out. He came to my school. His first time. Check it out. Enjoy.
Mark Driscoll amazing modern grounded Christian speaker.
Luke 15: 11-32
God loves you
I'll be back with another post next time till then nighty night.
Thursday.
Nothing much to aspect but seeing the papers laying around there is much work to be done. The spell of summer holiday is just not needed in this time of month. My finals are around the corner to raise my heart going. Just not my style.
I just wish thoughts of holiday will be out till the right time comes. The focus must be back once again.
Nah! i have so much to do. Papers to write. Projects to present. Exams to pass. I want to get this done and over. I cannot believe the amount of work i have put off for to long. Sleepless nights here i come.
Please do pray for me. Focus is what i need.
Besides the horror of papers and exams, i want to show you a video. Check it out. Enjoy
Clearly Monday is a time people are just not themselves.
I wish at times that Monday would be an extended weekend and Tuesday would be the starting working day but that would make Tuesday the new Monday. At times we just have to face our problems and take that step forward in reality by faith.
I just typing weird. Let me just have you see a video. Hope you like it. Check it out. Enjoy.
Sunday.
Life is really a journey. Each step or new event is simply a leap of faith.
I really do not know what to post for today. Let me just leave you a video to watch. It's during convocation in my school, Liberty University. Check it out. Enjoy
I'm really sorry for not posting sometime. It was a crazy week
I was just caught up with brunch of school work, projects and exams. My school day till end of this semester is filled with papers and exams. So sorry in advance if i don't post most of the time.
Besides sharing my school woes, i'm doing pretty alright. I'm still alive. haha. I'm just really tired. I do not get good sleeps at all or constant sleep hour. There has been many things needs to be done like my scheduling of my classes next semester, discussing issues with my mom and dad on financial stuff, and whole lot of other stuff too. I have been bob down with the immense pressure of college student life.
However, this is all in part of growing up. The level of responsibilities just grows more and more. In fact becoming more independent, the responsibility just skyrockets you have take care of money, work, fun, and friends. I'm half and half with this but being of prime age i have to uphold this new life. The beginnings are hard but eventually would be constant.
Anyway anyway, away for the hectic crazy lifestyle i have as usual i have a video to show you. This is actually in my bucket-list-things-to-do too. I have so much things i would love to do someday when i have the time and money and time. Check it out. Enjoy
I just want to highlight the part that this 8 year old kid is amazing.
Skip ahead if you want to. Look at 3 minutes in. The kid is all out balling. haha
Alright guys is that time that i leave you here. Catch me next time on new post right here same place same time till then nighty night.
Monday.
The chaos-ness of this day is beyond me. Actually today i felt more awake than my whole school semester. I have so much to do with very little time in my hand.
I have nothing to share about today than i went to class, studied a little and not finishing up some work.
However i have video to show you though. Check it out. Enjoy
You might be anxious to find out what happen to me. I can pretty much think what you guys were thinking. "Where is my jptoh? where is he? grrr"
I'm sorry that i didn't post for 2 days. It is very unusual for me too.
The reasons that i did not post for two days were i had continuous events that kept me away from the computer. Friday was my slight stress day because i was struggling with studying for bio exams. I had several hours (4 hours) before the exam. Not much time for that because i had another exam the other day. Stress. Another thing was that i thought this test would be easy the teacher gave me a study guide. Everything to study was pretty straight forward.
The problem was that the exam took an unexpected twist. The teacher decides to used bunch of microscopes having many cells like which confuse me. I knew some of them but the study guide did not have those cell pictures. That really gets into my nerve. I mean if you are teacher who give a study guide please do follow it other wise do not have study guides at all. ISH!!!
Anyway, after the exam i had to blow some steam off. I follow my friend around to see for apartments. My friend wants to move off. The reason being that the housing on campus are deciding to skyrocket the dorm prices. Crazy Crazy. That really piss me off because my scholarship right now is able to cover that and right now is not. I feel like moving off campus now. My friend that i followed with found this place that is beautiful and amazing. Is so near to campus like five minute drive. The apartment is huge three bedroom and two toilets and with utilities (fridge, oven, dish washer, washer and dryer) too. The price for the apartment to rent is 895 per month. That is really cheap compare to living on campus.
Right now i'm really considering of moving off campus now. I will be like saving so much money.
After the apartment look around, i went back to my dorm to change and leave to go to the gym. I had a great game of basketball that i miss so much for so long. The winning streak. I went on a 10 game winning streak that night. I had a team that communicate well and pass the ball around. I think in each game i score about five points, three assist and one rebound in each twelve point game. I'm really proud at myself. I did not know i still had it me. I thought i was gone and cannot play my game anymore since my highschool days. I thought i was finish. This games that night really shine some light on me to keep on pushing.
Later that night already had a great basketball night, Liberty University was having a event called Coffeehouse. I wish i had some videos or pictures the event was really good. The theme for this Coffeehouse was the 80s. This event is basically an a place for students to show off their talents in singing, acting, videos, and many great entertainment. The students that took part in this event have to present something that is from the 80s. That is Coffeehouse for you. Every year Coffeehouse is has a different theme.
That event ended very late like two in the morning. Oh yea...Coffeehouse is a late night event that starts at 11:30pm and goes on to 2am. I really like Coffeehouse. The first one i went i did not really enjoy but it just grows on me. hehe. So where was I....oh right...i came back super tired. I went to bed straight.
I will continue with my story tomorrow. But first a small video. I manage to find some videos of Coffeehouse. Enjoy
Sunday.
Day of rest. A day to be consume by God's power. A day to raise your hand up and give all the praises to God that He done throughout the week.
Monday is new beginnings.
I want to show you a video is from Liberty University. The message is profound. The message really to challenge the new generation (this generation) to pick up the faith and be a real follower of Christ. Listen.
Today i manage to get better. I feel less sick. Thank you for the prayers; however do continue to pray for me to be focus on my studies.
I have been bob down with too much work and studying for exams. So my mind is like blended now.
Anyway, today was a great day for Liberty University. The school decided to tear down one of their old buildings to build a new building. Not just any new building but a building that would hold the school together which is the new library. People attend school is to be filled with knowledge and wisdom. The library is the place to grow mental strength. And it shows the school wanting to be academic excellence.
Here is the groundbreaking event. Check it out
here is the recap of the event
I'm excited for this new library. The time of completion is by the time i graduated. I would not get to use it. =(
Oh well i guess my kids would use it or my sister's kids would.
Not a great day for me. I got the feeling of sickness. I never got sick for more than 3 years. Today mark the day i got sick again. I usually take good care of my body by exercising, eating healthy, eating vitamins, and fruits. If there was a sickness flying around campus i would double my intake of vitamins and fruits.
Today is just crazy. I woke up with sore throat. I could not eat anything except soup and bread.
I have been drink orange juice the whole day. The crazy thing is that i have a brunch of homework to do and prepare for major exams this week. Why is this happening to me. The madness.
May i ask you as a friend to pray for me to get healthy quickly, have total focus, and mind of a sponge to absorb the knowledge needed. Please.
Beside about sharing about my sickness and my woes, I want to share a video with you. The video i'm about to show is a person who was in the mafia became the world's famous mafia and turn Christian. His life was change by Jesus Christ coming into his life and he turn away for the mafia world. Presume to be dead but he is alive right now to tell his story to the rest of the world. Hear him out. His name is Michael Franzese. Enjoy.
Monday are always the same in every way. Everyone is dazed from the fun pack weekend from Friday to Sunday. Monday is back to usual self. Slave to work and duties.
Let me cheer you a little or motivate you a bit more.
If you know God, He is with you right now.
i pray that He gives you the strength and energy so that you can do the necessary work for today and the whole week.
Make your Monday fun by doing something out of your norm. What i like to do is think of creative things and draw them out.
Anyway, i want to share with you a video that kinda motivate my Monday much more than i expected. Liberty University invited a guest speaker who is an Evangelist. Hear him out. He has motivation to speak to you.
Have you ever wonder what are your foundations in your life? In what you belief. Or are you just some shallow person and is easily move by society or culture or peer pressure.
My hope to all my fellow readers that your foundations are built on God's Word, the Bible.
I want to share you a video from my school Liberty University. The speaker speak very deeply about this foundation issue. Hear him out. Enjoy
Take into consideration the foundation with the Lord Jesus Christ. He puts you on solid rock, so that you would not be easily shaken by worldly views.
SNOW!!!
Yes, the weather currently in Lynchburg, VA is snow. Not just sprinkles of snow but heavy down pouring snow. What does this mean? Hopefully there would not be any school tomorrow. It would be great another day of sleeping in. Love.
I will be praying for that. haha.
Such a great day. Everything is white. The ground is covered with white. The sky is falling down white. The cars are covered with white. Everything is white.
I just want to sit by a fire place and drink some hot milo. hmm...lovely.
I want to leave you guys with a video. Liberty University has a great school but they have powerful church behind the school. The speaker is one of my favorite. He is only well known in Liberty (i do not know whether he known else where).
Do hear him out. He preaches about God's trustworthy in good and bad times. Enjoy.
He is reading from Psalms 121. Hope he impacts your life. God bless.
A little status update about me.
I'm doing fine here in America. The school work that i have has been slightly overwhelming; however, nothing that i can't handle. God has been good to me and help me through every time. Do pray that i do well and be in the dean's list again.
My social life have been alright. Making new friends. Having good close friends.
The next up coming days that i'm excited about is spring break. I can't wait to just get away from books and homework. Just about 2-3 weeks till amazing spring break. I'm thinking of heading to New York and stay with my friends there.
I would like to go see Jeremy Lin play (i hope that i can do it though).
My spiritual life have been good to me. I have been reading the book of Job. Very very very interesting. I encourage that many of you should read Job. Full of drama. The great thing about this books is true and apart of history. Really amazing guy that stay true in having faith with God will take care of him. It shows that we should have faith in God.
Besides about my status update, I want to show you a few video from my school. Every beginning of the school semester. The school would guide every student of spiritual refreshment. So for three days and two nights students from the whole campus would get a chance to be spiritually filled and start the school year with God centered in their lives.
This spring semester the school decided to invited Miles McPherson. Great speaker. Hear him out. Let him spiritual encourage you. Enjoy
Amazing guy. He build the Rock church in San Diego, click here to check in out. Hope you enjoy the videos.
It is great to be a Christ follower. Everyday waking up is another new day that my Lord has made. The things i do is for my God. That's my praise for today.
Christianity. Is interesting to see that many religions attack this faith. Throughout time Christianity has been the main target to be destroy in the face of this beautiful earth. Every time the enemy is close in getting rid of Christians, we manage to come back in great numbers.
Why Christianity is an unusual faith? Why people follow this faith. I can simply put this because is real. Is not some person made up stories. Everything in the Bible has happen in history since the beginning.
Many times i think to myself that the people of the world are to put pressure on us Christians. The reason for the pressure is for true followers of Christ to grow in maturity in their faith.
Just my thoughts.
My God has stay true to his promises and blessing in my life because He loves me. He loves you too and accepts you. He hang on the cross, so a relationship with Him can happen for you and me.
On different note. Another video for Liberty University. This guy is a Christian comedian blogger. Check him out. Enjoy
The interaction between people are to be in love.
Rick Warren came to my school last semester. Just want to share with you in what he said to me. Enjoy
Having a Good Valentine's Day?
I didn't really enjoy mine. I mean is great day. But the day have to be filled with exams. What bummer right...
Anyway, i wanted to post today mostly about Jesus Christ's love. His love is for ALL. Everyone. He loves you even before you are born and still loves you. This person went into great lengths for the love for everyone that He died on the cross for you and me. Amazing person.
Another video on a different note. Do you know Francis Chan? The writer of "Crazy Love." The book is really amazing. If you have the chance to read it do it. Well the video is when he came to my school. Yup. So listen up. =)
Many of you may know already that I'm passionate about my Savior, Jesus Christ. The best thing about my God is that you can communicate to Him anytime and anywhere. Here is speaker is really big on prayer. Enjoy
Many of you know that i'm Christian. I love my Jesus Christ because He really change my life. I want to share a video with you to show you a glimpse of my God.
I pray that this video would change your life. Jesus Christ loves you.
