Thank you Lord for this day!
Today I went to school with Aye, my high school best friend. I woke up 6:30am today.. really early because I slept early too. Early to bed, early to rise haha! We went to our high school. We met our teachers again and our principal. I was overwhelmed by their warm welcome. They hugged us all and telling us how much we have changed physically and how much they missed us. There is an ongoing Sports Festival in our school until next week I guess. We watched some games and talked about how we miss our high school days. I also met my Biology/Chemistry teacher. I told her that my major in college are Biology and Chemistry. Well.. Science in particular. She was telling me to do my best and remember what she taught me when I was in high school. I saw lots of familiar faces too but some of them, I forgot. I'm so sorry -,-
Today, my mom and I went to the shopping mall again. We bought gifts for some youth from our church. Its sale time now so its really nice to go around the mall because of the cheap yet nice stuffs you can see. I bought also a shirt and a necklace. Actually I don't really like to buy stuffs nowadays because I want to save the money of my parents for necessities only. When I come back to Philippines, I will really do my best to save my money and buy important things only. By the way, I will be absent for 2 days... waaaaah! I will really miss a lot of things >< what should I do? I'm afraid I might get failure due to absences from my grades (?) I don't know. I'm really afraid it might be the reason for me to go summer classes this coming April. Lord, please don't let my professors do it. I am really trying my best to go to school everyday although its raining hard and hard to ride in the morning sometimes.
Well.. this is what ruined my day. My brother went to some place to sing "Christmas carol" with his friends at different houses in a compound. So, my parents let him go there and went home 11pm. Then when I asked him what they did, he said they just took pictures and didn't had that Christmas carol thing. Its not that I don't believe him but I already know him from the very start. I know it when he is lying or not. I am pretty sure that he just went there with his "girl". He is really crazy about that girl and I'm not liking it. He is too young! He should just concentrate with his walk with God, his family and his studies! That's what he is supposed to be focusing on and not on DATING! I am really disappointed with him now. I am not talking with him because I do not like it when he makes excuses and lies to us just to see someone he likes. Then when he came home, he is still choosing the food he wants to eat and complains about the food we have at home. Lord... stretch my patience.. I don't want to really get angry. I feel anger in my heart but I don't want it to be above the love in my heart. I want him to be a better person. Lord.. I don't want him to lie anymore and just say the truth always. Lord.. help me extend my patience and widen my understanding.
Mike, please do not lie to us anymore. Always tell the truth. Like what they say, if you tell the truth, you don't have to remember what you have said. You are very good in English.. even better than me so I believe you can analyze that statement I just mentioned. Do not let the things around you affect your walk with God. Always look straight. Do not go turns and be influenced by the bad things of this world. Do not be attracted by women you are not sure if they will be your wife in the future. Do not get crazy about a girl. GOD HAVE SOMEONE FOR YOU. It may be the one you like now BUT it may be not too. Only God knows! Please don't make "HER" the reason for me not to trust you. Don't make her the reason I will not want to go back here anymore. You are rather spending your time WITH THAT GIRL than with us! YOUR FAMILY! Then when you are at home, you are so impatient and complains about this and that. Yeah.. I think I'm a bit jealous.. its just because YOU ARE NOT FAIR! and the fact that you are too young! Please be a little more considerate next time especially with our parents feelings. I can't tell this straight to you because I know you will not listen and answer back without letting me finish what I wanted to say. I hope you will read this if ever you discover my blog someday. I am not telling this because I hate you. I am telling this because I love you and I want you to be a better person and a person who is God-fearing. Please act mature. Act mature enough that I will trust you for taking care of our parents while I am not here with them always since I have to go back to Philippines for study. Stop telling lies to them. TRUTH! Always the truth!!!!!! I am begging you to do so. Please. I am tired of hearing lies. Please show a reason for me to trust you again because now.. I have too little trust. Show me and our family the reason to trust you so we will not have to doubt you from time to time. You are 3rd year, act more mature. You are not a kid anymore. You need to grow up, not only physically, but also mentally. You know I will always love you my dear brother. Just be a good boy.
