Take every chance. Drop every fear.

YFC Richmond held a KFC GA at Victoria for a one day event since the CFC had their GA too. Ian (from Vancouver chapter), Carlo A. (fm Burnaby Chapter), and Errol (the head of the KFC leaders) also served on that day.


First stop: the ferry
We went up on the top of the ferry and talked about what's going to happen at Victoria. Then, we started worshiping all throughout the ride. It was such an awkward, weird, but definitely a fun experience to do! We had a crowd listening while we were singing – even though we weren't really the music min, but whatevs. For the Lord, I am sure he was looking down at us and he was proud. That's all it matters.

Some people were dancing with us as we practice the song Move. Some people were singing the song we were singing too! It was such a good feeling to see people knowing the songs we sang or even appreciated what we were doing up there. Thank You!


Second stop: 150 years + chilling with the YFCs
Apparently, it was Victoria's 150 years! Just in time for our visit! Before going to the CFC, we watched our brothers from Victoria dance. Hell yeah they're good! So gangsta! After the performance, we met the Victoria YFCs and then we headed down to the Bay Centre to eat.

The whole time we were in downtown we were playing the game "If I can go to the moon...". Actually, I didn't get that game until my sister told me! They've been playing the game even before Victoria and it sucks because really I don't get it! =)) NOW I DO! 


Third stop: KFC GA
This is it!
  • Kuyas and Ates introduced ourselves and started playing some games with the kids
  • Learned a sing and dance song - Deep
  • Had an activity about Poverty and Charity
  • I GAVE A TALK
    • It was my first time to give a talk to the little ones
    • I say it was nerve-racking, but I definitely enjoyed it
    • I am not really a speaker and I dislike talking in the front especially when I'm alone, but I am really glad that my team liked it and appreciated what I did - of course same goes to Ian.
    • Martin said that he was proud of me and Ian when we were having a talk and we completely thought about our talk on the spot. I guess because giving a talk and really thinking about the words that you're going to say is really hard. I even practiced before the day, but everything I said was improvised. All in all, I am proud of myself. 
  • Learned the song Move, but wasn't able to finish it because we had to wrap it up
  • The kids performed Deep in front of their parents - sooo cute! While watching them, I felt like a teacher! 
  • After the closing prayer, we ate, chilled with the YFC-Victoria, took pictures.

Fourth Stop: Going home
  • Ruiz drove all seven of us to the ferry. The whole ride was so quiet. Yes, we were that tired. Haha For five minutes I think we all fell asleep, then we woke up almost at the same time! Senses guys! Brothers & Sisters by Christ right thurr! =)) Kidds
  • Missed the 7pm ferry. Waited for an hour for the next one, fooled around, sang, taking pictures... ohhh i how i miss everyone now!
  • Got on the ferry, talked about what happened at the GA, complimented each other and talked about what we could improve. 
  • The rest of the ride we were just talking and having fun. 
    Last but not least, the Sixth Stop: Well Tea
    • I think it became a trademark for the YFCs to eat, drink bubble tea, and chill some more before everyone can finally say good night.
      • So we decided to eat at Well Tea. 
      • They ran out of pearls so we had coconut jelly
      • SO FULL!
    This whole day was just so epic that I felt like I didn't want the day to end. And, until now I feel like I still have a hangover from all the fun with the team. I can't wait for another weekend with these people.

    Pixelated


    Intro: "Why is she so far away? That was the question that I asked God every night. Some would say, "distance makes the heart grow fonder", but I knew that it wasn't always the case. And there were nights when I wondered, why you? There's over 6 billion people in the world and love chose us. This album is dedicated to the woman who waits faithfully for the man she loves. It's dedicated to the man who holds his woman in his heart, until he can hold her in his arms. It's dedicated to the people who know a good thing when they see it. This a tribute to the patient. This is the Pixelated EP."

    One more chance

    after the four days of extreme roller coaster ride, i am glad that things are okay now and that i can breath and sleep better na rin.

    what happened was something that i am not proud of, but i definitely learned my lesson. nadala na ika nga – nadala sa mga pangyayari. and, even though i posted on my twitter and on my statuses that "the only way to forget is to accept and move on", i cannot hide the fact that i am still ashamed with my actions. i feel like i cannot face his friends who knew about it. i feel like my image was damaged... well i bet it really did.

    i'm only human, and i make mistakes too. 

    god knows how much i love him, how much i care. god knows that i think about him every single day, every minute of every second. god knows all plans with him. and, god knows that even with His ways of distractions or phases, it/they can never make me love him any less. 

    i am so thankful that god and yo gave me another chance. another chance to be better, to be more responsible and to be more aware with my actions. another chance to show him how important he is to me and how much i value him.

    "i would rather lose my vices than to lose him"

    i cannot see my life without him – not that i'm dependant, but he's my everything. it hurts to even hear or read whenever he says that maybe our relationship won't really work out or maybe there's someone better... or whatnot. for me (even if i am trying not to fully force myself to think like this but i think), he's the one. he's one of a kind! especially with the generation that we live in, i think it's hard to find someone like him. and, plus we connect in so many ways! good or bad!

    ... so, for this second chance, i will stay away from my vices and will always keep in mind what i have, who i have, and my limitations.

    - - - - - - 


    even though i still feel like it's not the right time to show how much i care, i still made this because after all that happened it made me realized that he's someone very special to me. 

    forgetting and accepting my fault(s) will be a long process to fully move on, but i am wishing for the best that everything will go back to the way it was before or even better.

    *cross fingers*

    Don't do to others what you don't want others do to you

    i am very disappointed with myself. there was no reason for me to do such thing and absolutely no reason for me to hurt somebody. i was aware. i had a choice, but i let it happen. why? i don't exactly know. it happened too fast... which i still think that it is not enough to to defend myself because it was wrong. i was wrong. how can i be so stupid? how can i just let myself do this? fuck!

    i would like to say sorry and ask for an apology but sorry is not enough. and, i know that accepting an apology from somebody you have hurt you is a long process to fully forget and move on.

    shit, camille! what were you thinking?! tanga mo lang. nadala sa emotion? nadala sa 'i feel bad'?

    :( i know you are very disappointed in me. i know that it's not very easy to forget and i understand, but i am really, really, really sorry and i wish someday you'll be able to forgive me. i love you, but if you feel like i've hurt you too much and doesn't want this anymore, i'd understand.

    I'm Sorry.

    the Amazing Spider-Man

    My fambam just saw the Amazing Spider-Man 3D movie and I must say that I like this version more than the first one. It felt more natural.

    In all honesty, I didn't really find Andrew Garfield cute or hot like what people say when The Social Network was out, but damnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn he's so gwapo in The Amazing Spider-Man! My eyes went all heartsy on him! It must be his body built and looks in Spider-Man. I think he looks a lot better sa Spiderman... or di ko lang talaga siya type noon? :/ 


    As for Emma Stone, she's so beautiful! And, same as Andrew, I wasn't really a fan of Emma on her previous movies, but for some reason, I am starting to like her. I bet it's because of her blonde hair. I think she looks prettier with it. She looks mature and classier.


    This movie is a MUST SEE movie.

    Call It What You Want

    Foster The People | Kimbra | Mayer Hawthorne

    My siblings and I went to Foster the People's concert last week. At first I was very hesitant to go because the only familiar song I know from FTP was Pumped Up Kicks. I even remember lying to my sister about me knowing FTP very well and that I listen to their songs when I really don't. But for some reason, I thought it would be a good opportunity to go out, listen to new music, and have a day with my siblings again.
