Hot tramp, daddy's lil' cutie

Boy did the bad luck streak just keep on rolling today. Go to class today, and I must say thanks to Queenie for waking me up. But I go to class, and Melissa was like on some sort of emotional roller coaster that I don't usually see in her. It could be that time of the month although she denied it when I asked her. Then I come home to take care of this little credit card statement of a quarter. Yes 25 fricking cents. I call the company to find out what the G is this all about. And they say that I'm currently enjoying there credit card protecter fee program. I'm like hello, what the G is this and 2nd I don't want it. So here I am talking to the jabroni telling him that I don't want this program. And he keeps telling me to give him 7 days so that he can send me some crap to look at to reconsider my hasty decision of not being in this program. So I tell him, how about you give me 7 seconds to say no again. I mean I am so sick of telemarketers calling me. From now on, I'm just gonna be rude to them because they waste my time so I might as well waste theirs. Then I go to my soccer game and to sit in the parking lot for a half hour then to realize that they have decided to call the game off. All I gotta say to that is what a bunch of wusses, a couple of water drops and people run and hide. Umm yeah, and thanks for letting me know too. Then I go to Lindsay's house so we can go to v-ball practice together. Normally it takes me about 25 minutes to get to CBC from her house. But noooo how long does it take today? It took me double that time to get there because of 2 idiots within a 2 mile span got into a major accident. Which forced 696 to shut down, while they clean the freeway up.

Ooooh but things get better at v-ball practice, as I expected a low turnout. So I ask myself was it beneficial to open it up? Phil believes it was so other people can get a chance to practice. For the longest time I didn't understand why some people would think these certain individuals have bad attitudes. I kind of experienced it tonight because I took some offense to some of the stuff one of them said to Lindsay. I thought his comments were discouraging and it made her more nervous on playing better to make sure she did not mess up on his account. I know Father that You have taught me to forgive others, and I'll let it slide. But come this Saturday, if I hear or see some sort of arrogance from them or others, then I ask that You forgive me for my actions. I know this tournament is meant to be an outreach, so I've already decided to not play at high level against teams that aren't as talented. Because what Dan Moy taught me was to remember that other teams are their to have fun and it wouldn't be fun to blow teams out if my team had the chance. And God has taught us how to be merciful as well, if this ever came around to it, I pray that others will see our actions towards that. I pray for the fellowship and hopefully new friendships will be built.

There You'll Be

2 trailer park girls go around the outside,
guess who's back?

You know what one of the best songs has to be right now is Eminem's "Without Me". Anyways, so today I missed class again for the whopping 4th time due to case of oversleeping. The night before I was freaking out because I had my 2nd exam. And I couldn't afford to oversleep another exam again after missing the first one. So that night I was cramming for that exam and I tried to pull an all nighter because I did not want to sleep and then forget to wake up for it. So around 5 a.m. I fell asleep, however since last time I slept through 4 alarms, I decided to come up with a better idea. I ran to my sister's room to grab her alarm clock, so that would 5 alarm clocks all set up around the perimeter of my bed. Plus Melissa called at 7 to wake me up too, ahhh gotta love it. Unfortunately for today, it did not work, however tomorrow morning is a new day. Queenie has offered to wake me up in the whee hours of morning so that I can not miss class. It works out wake me up for class and feed Audrey in the morning :)

Last night was also a great time in v-ball, although I did not play that many games. It was just fun playing with the peeps on my team and meeting a new guy who can play some good ball. It was fun because as much as I like to play a simple offense, it was great to play 6-2 and 5-1 to get the games exciting. Plus I got to scout one of the teams that will be playing this Saturday. I still don't like how people think that my team is supposedly the strongest. What has my team done that has earned that title? Like wow just because me, Phil, and Lindsay are on the same team doesn't exactly make my team the strongest. Yes we have 3 great players but they don't know who else is on my team. The other 3 could be some jabroni I picked off the street, but they're not. It will be fun though to reunite and play with Nick and getting to play with Allison too though. This Saturday will be fun to meet new people who love to play v-ball.

Also I finally found someone to be able to do cornrows for my hair. My friend Kim says that she can do it, however she can not do it this Friday for that she is meeting a new guy. Dang it! I say because I wanted it done for the tournament on Saturday, so I guess I gotta go with something different. But at least I know that she can do this in the future for me. Ok time to hit the sack so I don't oversleep for class again.

Move Your Body

Well today is Memorial Day and I've had a lot of great memories on this great holiday. I remember going to Cedar Point every year with my family on this day. I believed this tradition started when I first was able to walk till I turned 16 because at that time I could drive myself and go whenever I want with my friends. It was only a couple of years ago that I went to Toronto with Stan, Erin, Alex, and Big Mak. I saw parts of downtown Toronto that I never saw before and it was amazing. Then there was the v-ball tournament in Ann Arbor where I had no GG idea what I was doing when I was on the court.

Last night I talked to a great friend, Charles down in Dallas. I'm really thankful that God put him in my life back when I first came to CBC. This Saturday is CBC's V-ball Tournament and it's nearly been a 3 year absence from it's last one. And that one was the first time I ever got to taste v-ball competition. Charles had asked me to play on his team, and I'm like thinking why would he want me on his team because I totally suck. Our team didn't fair to well but Charles had a great time still and he was just so opened with everyone playing on his team. 3 people that were on the team still attend CBC, and it's amazing how these 3 are very close to me now. And they are Phil, John, and Lynnette. I kind of wish we could keep these teams for this year's tournament because I bet we would do a lot better this year for sure. I have a team this year, at least I think, but it kind of bothers me that people think my team is the strongest just because me and Phil are on the same team. Like we don't know about some of the other teams and people don't even know who are on my team. I hope all the competition is equal and every game is like a nail biter. I still have the picture of our team back in 99 and boy did JW look scary with no hair. Gosh I miss Charles around here though, if anything I would always admire the passion he has to sharing the Gospel with people. I told Charles that I'm gonna dedicate this tournament to him well God first of course. But it was because of how God used him to use this ministry that I am where I am today. Again Lord, I thank You for putting him in my life and I pray that Charles and Sandy are serving You well down in Dallas. I pray that You continue to look after them because I love them very much. Thank You Lord for blessing me with their friendship. Time to get down and get to work this Saturday.

I Won't Back Down
K 13

I am beginning to realize how hard it is keeping up with this thing now. Lately I've been do so many things, in this meeting and then into another, go to class, go workout, etc. It's sad how people ask for more time in a day, yet if that ever happened, that time would be wasted to, and not focused on spending time with God. Last night I found myself a little upset because it seemed like something I planned wasn't going my way. And I spent some time in prayer last night and this morning to realize that it's all in His Will and it is meant to be good for me. So I'm feeling all good once again.

Also here's one annoying thing about yesterday, go to CBC in the afternoon to grab some grub with my little sis, and GP B. Go back home to rest for like a couple of hours then go back down to CBC for a meeting. If only CBC was closer to me then I would of saved like 2 hours worth of driving.

Today, I played some intense soccer with Zion Fellowship, and it was just a great time of fellowship. I still remember my days as a young inspiring soccer player back in 2nd grade. However my daddy didn't like me playing soccer, so that was when he made take those b-ball classes that at first I used to dread. I played decent today, however since this will be a weekly thing, peeps better beware when I get my soccer game back into groove. I wonder though how I would of turned out as a soccer player if I just focused on that these days?

Crash and Burn (The story of my life)

What a long weekend it was then again it seemed like all of last week was long. On Saturday, I went good about myself because I got to CBC 10 min before b-ball actually started. Yeah go me! Anyways, so I'm there just doing my thang on the court. I know it's an outreach and all but when someone talks trash to me, oh you can bet the game is personal to me. So I've got some chump talking trash to me when the score was 13-7 in favor of my opposition and the game goes up to 15. He said what he wanted to say to me so I did what what I had to do, which was take over the game score 8 straight points two 3 pointers and a reverse lay up, and just looked at him and said "next". Some people just gotta learn the hard way.

Well I saw Star Wars last night with my boy J-Dub. And we had a great time watching the movie, and I understood what another friend John was finally talking about when he described Star Wars to CBC. A couple of years ago, he shared with me his testimony saying that the Jedi counsel is just like the CBC Board. Lately I've been struggling my own personal probs in patience and self-control. And it was wierd how Sunday School talked about self-control and after everybody was gone, one of the board members talked to me about growing and maturing. I couldn't remember what his exact words were but basically talked about that I am still young and that I have a lot more to learn in what God is trying to teach me. I guess after the movie, I reflected more on the what he shared with me, and I envisioned him as Master Yoda and myself as Annakin, has the skills to do things but sometimes get a little too arrogant in my spiritual gifts God has blessed me with. One thing for sure is that Yoda kicked some serious booty at the end. And man I wish I was over there in Hollywood because the girl who plays Senator Omadla was on Letterman Saturday night. And she said she is only 20, and single, dang it!!! Oh well she not asian so that's a downer, and probably not athletic :(
