Cramming

I always tell myself not to cram during exams so that I will be able to have higher scores than what I usually get when I cram. But no matter how many times I tell myself not to, I'm still doing it. I just can't get into studying my lessons when it's not the night or the day before my exams. I just don't like it so much coz I'm afraid of having failing grades at the end of the sem.

I still am struggling right now on how to start studying my lessons. I'm having an exam tomorrow on my major and I still am not opening my notes or my book to study and worst, I have not listened to our teacher during discussions so I really need to study from the start so that I will be able to understand everything.

I am not that bad student that you have in your mind right now, I'm just a lazy one. Hahaha. :)

Anyways, I need to study my lessons now. Well I just hope I can start the momentum already.

PS: Here's some tips for you to absorb much during cramming:

 1. Stay away from distractions. (Laptop, Cellphones and etc. )

 2. STAY AWAY FROM YOUR BED. (You don't want to fall asleep in the middle of your study.

Don't you?)

Lost

I am a person whose not too materialistic, but I just don't understand why it's such a big deal to me losing my phone. Well, I think it just hurt me so much coz it's a gift to me from my parents and I can't bear the truth that blood and sweat are what it takes for them to provide not just our needs but also our wants.

What's worst is that the person whose having my phone right now doesn't deserve it. Wanna know why? Coz he is a freakin' liar. He texted me using my sim and fooled me. I just wonder why people like that still exists. I hate it that he tried to ask the security code of my phone. 

 Well, I think God has purpose for everything. I'll just wait for the time that He'll reveal it to me. And to the person who took it? Well, I'll just let God work for it.

Iligan City Diyandi Festival

September 29, 2011 is Sr. San Miguel's festival or locally called by Iliganons as Diyandi Festival.

What's my experience of today's Diyandi? Well, here are the following:

1. Knowing that it's city's fiesta, it is expected that there would be lots of food, but what happened to me is the irony. My friends from Iligan did not invite us and worst, restaurants and other food establishments are close. What's the conclusion? It's fiesta and I have nothing to eat.

2.Our drinking water supply is consumed already and we need to buy water, but since it's fiesta, no there's open water refilling station.It's fiesta and I have nothing to drink.

Rides at MUGNA (photo by:tonzi8901)

3.Well, at least this third one is a good part. Boredom is torturing me, because of that, I have asked a friend of mine to invite us for dinner and so thank God, I have eaten delicious and yummy foods.

4.This is the MUGNA part. Mugna refers to an amusement park here. I really had fun riding all those breathtaking rides they offered especially the ROLLER COASTER (well, you're afraid of riding it coz it looks like it's gonna break, but thank God, it went well) and the SPIDER or some may call it Octopus. 

Well, my DIYANDI celebration isn't that boring as I have expected.  I'm just sad with the part that I lost my phone the other night (September 28) and the one who have it now don't want to return it to me. Oh! may God touch his heart.

10 Messages From God

THIS IS AN ARTICLE I'VE READ FROM THIS SITE: gleez.com1. QUIT WORRYING:

Life has dealt you a blow and all you do is sit and worry. Have you forgotten that I am here to take all your burdens and carry them for you? Or do you just enjoy fretting over every little thing that comes your way?

2. PUT IT ON THE LIST:

Something needs done or taken care of. Put it on the list. No, not YOUR list. Put it on MY to-do-list. Let ME be the one to take care of the problem. I can't help you until you turn it over to Me. And although My to-do-list is long, I am after all... God. I can take care of anything you put into My hands. In fact, if the truth were ever really known, I take care of a lot of things for you that you never even realize

3. TRUST ME:

Once you've given your burdens to Me, quit trying to take them back. Trust in Me. Have the faith that I will take care of all your needs, your problems and your trials. Problems with the kids? Put them on My list. Problem with finances? Put it on My list. Problems with your
emotional roller coaster? For My sake, put it on My list. I want to help you. All you have to do is ask.

4. LEAVE IT ALONE:

Don't wake up one morning and say, "Well, I'm feeling much stronger now, I think I can handle it from here." Why do you think you are feeling stronger now? It's simple. You gave Me your burdens and I'm taking care of them. I also renew your strength and cover you in my peace. Don't you know that if I give you these problems back, you will be right back where you started? Leave them with Me and forget about them. Just let Me do my job.

5. TALK TO ME:

I want you to forget a lot of things. Forget what was making you crazy. Forget the worry and the fretting because you know I'm in control. But there's one thing I pray you never forget. Please, don't forget to talk to Me - OFTEN! I love YOU! I want to hear your voice. I want you to
include Me in on the things going on in your life. I want to hear you talk about your friends and family. Prayer is simply you having a conversation with Me. I want to be your dearest friend.

6. HAVE FAITH:

I see a lot of things from up here that you can't see from where you are. Have faith in Me that I know what I'm doing. Trust Me; you wouldn't want the view from My eyes. I will continue to care for you, watch over you, and meet your needs. You only have to trust Me. Although I have a much bigger task than you, it seems as if you have so much trouble just doing your simple part. How hard can trust be?

7. SHARE:

You were taught to share when you were only two years old. When did you forget? That rule still applies. Share with those who are less fortunate than you. Share your joy with those who need encouragement. Share your laughter with those who haven't heard any in such a long time. Share your tears with those who have forgotten how to cry. Share your faith with those who have none.

8. BE PATIENT:

I managed to fix it so in just one lifetime you could have so many diverse experiences. You grow from a child to an adult, have children, change jobs many times, learn many trades, travel to so many places, meet thousands of people, and experience so much. How can you be so
impatient then when it takes Me a little longer than you expect to handle something on My to-do-list? Trust in My timing, for My timing is perfect. Just because I created the entire universe in only six days, everyone thinks I should always rush, rush, rush.

9. BE KIND:

Be kind to others, for I love them just as much as I love you. They may not dress like you, or talk like you, or live the same way you do, but I still love you all. Please try to get along, for My sake. I created each of you different in some way. It would be too boring if you were all
identical. Please, know I love each of your differences.

10. LOVE YOURSELF:

As much as I love you, how can you not love yourself? You were created by me for one reason only -- to be loved, and to love in return. I am a God of Love. Love Me. Love your neighbors. But also love yourself. It makes My heart ache when I see you so angry with yourself when things
go wrong. You are very precious to me, Don't ever forget.

My Pledge

"Believing that true love waits, I make a commitment to God,myself, my family, my friends,my future mate and my future childrento be sexually abstinent from this dayuntil the day I enter a biblical marriage relationship."

LETTER FROM SATAN

LETTER FROM SATAN

by Frencis Joy Panerio on Monday, 08 August 2011 at 05:14

DARK LETTER

PAY ATTENTION TO THE P.S. at the end.

Letter from the Devil

This can really make you think. It actually made me really mad while I was reading it, but it made me realize some things.

Plus, I had to send it because of the P.S.

This is deep... and I wasn't going to forward or share it, but that last line... you'll see.

A LETTER TO YOU FROM SATAN

I saw you yesterday as you began your daily chores.

You awoke without kneeling to pray. As a matter of fact, you didn't even bless your meals, or pray before going to bed last night.

You are so unthankful, I like that about you.

I cannot tell you how glad I am that you have not changed your way of living, Fool, you are mine.

Remember, you and I have been going steady for years, and I still don't love you yet.

As a matter of fact, I hate you, because I hate God.

He kicked me out of heaven, and I'm going to use you as long as possible to pay him back.

You see, Fool, GOD LOVES YOU and HE has great plans in store for you.

But you have yielded your life to me, and I'm going to make your life a living hell.

That way, we'll be together twice. This will really hurt God.

Thanks to you, I'm really showing Him who's boss in your life with all of the good times we've had.

We have been...

watching dirty movies, cursing people out, loving worldly things, having bad influences, stealing, lying, being hypocritical, fornicating, overeating, telling dirty jokes, gossiping, being judgmental, back stabbing people, disrespecting adults, and those in leadership positions, no respect for the Church, bad attitudes.

SURELY you don't want to give all this up.

Come on, Fool, let's burn together forever. I've got some hot plans for us. This is just a letter of appreciation from me to you.

I'd like to say 'THANKS' for letting me use you for most of your foolish life.

You are so gullible, I laugh at you. When you are tempted to sin, you give in.

HA HA HA, you make me sick.

Sin is beginning to take its toll on your life. You look 20 years older, and now, I need new blood.

So go ahead and teach some children how to sin.

All you have to do is smoke, get drunk or drink while under-aged, cheat, gamble, gossip, fornicate, and live being as selfish as possible.

Do all of this in the presence of children and they will do it too. Kids are like that.

Well, Fool, I have to let you go for now. I'll be back in a couple of seconds to tempt you again. If you were smart, you would run somewhere, confess your sins, and live for God with what little bit of life that you have left.

It's not my nature to warn anyone, but to be your age and still sinning, it's becoming a bit ridiculous. Don't get me wrong, I still hate you.

IT'S JUST THAT YOU'D MAKE A BETTER FOOL FOR CHRIST.

P.S. If you love me, you won't share this

A Letter to My Future Husband

Dear Future Husband,

Hi there! How are you doing right now? I hope you're taking good care of yourself. You know what? I almost can't wait of the day that I'll be meeting you or maybe if I actually have met you, I can't wait of the day that I'll realize that you're the right one for me. 

If ever you're in pain right now, I'm sorry for I cannot comfort you yet, but please don't be sad, those wounds will be healed by time and rest assured that you'll have me at your back in the future. 

I want you to know that I've been taking good care of myself just to make me deserving of you, I hope that you're doing the same way too. Please don't get too curious of the many things in life and please don't get into drugs or even premarital sex. I hate men like that. If ever you've tried already, please don't do it again, not until we get married of course. I know how strong temptations are but if you really have the will to not do it, you'll really won't. 

You know what, I've been thinking of you lately and how we live our lives in the future. I hope you're doing good in your studies so that you'll be able to give us (me and your future children) a comfortable life. I'm not telling you that I'll make you do all the working thing, of course, I'm studying hard too so that I can help you.

By the way, how's your relationship with God right now? I hope you know Him. Please don't forget and acknowledge His presence in your life. I've been praying to Him all day that He'll take care of you and He won't let you fall in love with the wrong lady so that you won't feel too much heartaches, I know how it hurts, I've been there and I'm not falling to the wrong one any more, I swear it to you.

I want you to believe that true love waits. I've been waiting for you and I'll always wait for you. Please wait for me too.

I love you and I'm missing you.

Love,

Your Future Wife

Dear Future Husband

Dear Future Husband,

Whoever you are, please do good on your studies for you to be able to support us, your wife and children in the future. Please also enjoy your your life as single so that when you'll be married soon, you will no longer think of making stupid things.

That would be all, please take care of yourself and I'll be waiting for you.

Truly yours,
Your Future Wife

What is Faith?

Hebrews 11:1

          Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.

It's not easy to hope for something that we think is impossible to happen. It's not easy to be certain on things that  our bare eyes haven't seen yet. But as long as we have Jesus in our lives and we have a really great faith on Him, we will be able to command a mountain to move and throw itself to the ocean. 

Well, it's not literally moving a mountain, it only just means that we will be able to conquer whatever obstacles, hindrances and sufferings this sinner world offers, no matter how big it is. 

When huge wave of problems is approaching, all we have to do is to let go and let God. I mean, acknowledge and accept our dependence on Him and let Him work on our lives. Let Him do His will for us. After all, entrusting everything to Him is what faith all about!

He's the Reason

Whenever you were asked for the reason of your existence, what's the first thing that comes up your mind?


Well, if you ask me, the only reason why I'm still existing and still fighting is God. He has given us the chance to live here in this world for us to be able to change and mold ourselves into the the person He wants us to be.


This world isn't our permanent place, we all know that, and as long as we're still existing, living and fighting, we have to make it sure that what were fighting for is at the right side and of for God's glory.


The only secret for a Godly and happy life is making God as the center of it and dedicating to Him every move and activities you are going to do to.


A Christian life is never easy as it is, but as long as God is fighting with you, there's no war that you cannot conquer.


Have faith and never quit!
