What is your favorite time of year?

From summer, spring, winter and fall Christmas brings joy, full of love and family laughter. To see the little boys and girls at their best waiting for Santa’s surprise Christmas morning, music and food which brings family from far closer and special moments every year. During this time of the year I believe it is the fullest of magical mysteries. Its like this feeling that you can’t resist, a feeling to every year that makes you so anxious and the excitement that you can not describe. Also a year the just can’t be explained and gives you a sort of chill or a knot in your stomach. The peace it brings on a cold silent night, sitting in front of the Christmas tree as Christmas musical plays, a relaxation you just indulge yourself into. But to bear in mind of the little things we have that people don’t. A time of year to be thankful and that for those that have it at worse may have a guardian angle from every prayer they receive. A life time story I will not forget was that my dad was out of job and my parents told me to be careful because of finance troubles. I remember sharing to God all I wanted or wished was for my dad to have a job. Though it tool several weeks for my prayer to be answered it was. Having my dad happy or my mom is the most valuable Christmas present ever to receive. Christmas brings the ugliest out of the people. From the poorest of the poor out in the streets the meaning of Christmas opens up the eyes of others. To see the richest of the rich give back not from the things they think is good, but the difference of having them see how much every penny’s worth and the meaning of giving. Though now these days as the economy is down and out of place, as tradition we are thankful for having our family near and for those that are far in our hearts. Christmas should not be a time of competing how much spent, or purchasing for brand names but the even it self to with people you love and honor the birth of Christ. Others out there that have a different opinion, one that I have encountered in a bible study. I recall having the speaker point out that the 25th of December really is not the birth of Christ. How it is until today is unknown, only this time of the year we only celebrate the birth of our Christ. Unlike how it is in their parish, it is not only one particular day they celebrate the birth of Christ it is every single day whether it would be in or out of church they celebrate the birth of Christ. Invite of more participant of attending their bible studies. Though what they believe in is different from how I was taught, they did point out something I did agree on of the celebration of the birth of Christ in our out the church. My opinion to that was that I can’t say that I’m not allowed to believe what was lectured at the same time I can’t say that I don’t believe. The birth of Christ is still a mystery or so I’ve heard. Every year until now for every Christmas wish – for prayers of those that are in need of help and thanks to God for everything he has given. Christmas is the key to having everyday be thankful for and having it bring mysteries but wonderful memories we never tend fade from our hearts. There’s no words that may come upon me to expand what it is during that time of year jus makes it so special.

Fishing memories

I remember when I was a little kid, my dad took me fishing. He did not take me alongside him when he went fishing in the cliffs. Since I was a beginner and a small kid, he took me to the dock and taught me how to cast the fishing line and how to reel it in, when you know that the fish rather took the bait and ran, or I actually have caught a fish.

After fishing in the dock for several months, my dad one day took me on a different course. I was wondering what he was up to and where we were going, but then I then found out that we were going to a new fishing ground around the cliff. I was shocked and amazed by how beautiful the scenery was. I became in love with fishing and I would try to go whenever it was available. Never have I had so much fun while fishing, because of the reason of feeling the breeze come up while you fish near the cliffs edge. Another thing that has amazed me was the size of the fish that you would catch on the cliff, compared to the fishes caught on the dock.

A once in a lifetime experience of exciting and adventurous times of fishing has given me many memories of the times I have spent together with my dad. It was a father- son bonding. We fished at night and while we fished I was amazed in awe of how beautiful the stars were and how much there were up on the sky.

This is one of the most memorable things that I have experience throughout my life as I have lived. I am still in love with fishing; however it is not so much fun anymore because of the decrease in population of fishes.

Crazy Memories

It all started on the day that I have left Tinian to go to Guam. I was sixth grade then and I had been placed to go to Untalan Middle School. This school was said to be one of the best public school there is in Guam. So as I attended this school, I had been introduced to many friends by struggling to “fit” amongst others in school. On the contrary, I took swimming lessons and I had always loved to swim. I joined a club and I had become well built after six months. People’s perspective point of view on me had changed, and I had more confidence in myself to become more popular.

I had no experience in relationships, and sixth grade was only a mere practice towards something great during my seventh grade. I also attended church only because my guardians were religious believers. During my stay and visiting the church, I met many new friends and I have been more active in activities involving the church.

Seventh grade came, and I had enough experience to start a new life of being who I am and becoming more known throughout the school. I quickly had a girlfriend and we stayed together for more than a year, but we had our ups and down’s in which almost broke us apart. That reason was because of my popularity. Many girls had come to flirt with me and I did not know too much of an experience to detect that they had been flirting with me, until I realized that my girlfriend was crying, sad, and never wanted to talk to me.

This is my crazy memories of my middle school years. I have learned many things from my girlfriend: things that I should do and not do to make her happy and satisfy myself.

What's my Luxury Like?

My type of luxury is something that I really can afford to happen in reality. I dream big, but in case I do not accomplish my goal of my dream, I have backups that are useful towards living a great life.

My first type of luxury is to go to college and finish with a great start to a great finish. I would love to be introduced into a great business company that I would be great at. It would be a life’s long wish to become the person my parents think of me as: wearing a tuxedo and going to work, doing my work sitting down and earning a lot of money.

If this plan does not work, I would go to plan B and graduate from college with an outstanding reputation. Then I would strive to work for the government, in which I would obtain great advantages and to work as what my parents pictured all of their kids to be when they grow up successful.

Thirdly, I would love to graduate college with a good state of reputation towards my professors and work alongside my sister’s boyfriend. It is not much of a choice of words and desire of what I want to do, but I wished to stay by his side and work my way up into becoming someone that can be respected as.

Lastly, I have an older cousin who is a close relative on my mother’s side and he has introduced me into being a major in construction. I could never want anything better but to work by his side diligently because of the dangerousness of the job.

Favorite Songs/ Quotes

My favorite song is Arms of Sorrow, sang by Killswitch Engage. The reason why I love this bands song is because of the ominous and unique way of playing the instruments. It is the same as all the other artists; however, this band’s vocalist has a unique voice in which I feel as if I am getting sucked into the song, getting addicted to the song by his metronome.

The song reminds me of this special person who I met four years ago. We are still best friends and although we do not see each other due to being in different islands, Facebook and MySpace helps with the updates on each other and how each of us have been. MySpace has been rather not useful now-a-days so I use Facebook. Facebook is something similar to MySpace; however, Facebook is somewhat better compared to how the design and simplicity is made of.

“Imprisoned, inside this mind… hiding behind the empty smiles. So simple, it is not much made, crawling back into the dark”

“Running, always running, into the distance… stop me before I bleed again. The echoes of my voice have followed me down. The shadows I cast follow me down. Deeper I’m falling, into the arms of sorrow… Buildings are descending, into the arms of sorrow.”

Christmas Break Journal

During this Christmas, I will be able to visit Guam. I have been unable to visit Guam for almost four years now and I have grown ill of this Island called Saipan. It would be lovely to experience Guam in a different perspective view, where I could have fun and enjoy the many activities of meeting my friends and going to the mall.

When I lived in Guam for two years, I have not been able to go to the mall as I wished to meet with my friends. I was never allowed or permitted to go to the mall and watch movies either. Even as I would go and watch a movie in the theatres, it would only be with my sister and the guardian’s daughter. This event only ever happens every once in six months or more and it would never be fun with only the three of us.

Now that I am free from the clutches of those evil guardians, I am able to visit Guam and stay at my sister’s house for the time being. When I go there this Christmas, I will be enjoyed to see the reunion of my friends and spending a wonderful time going around the mall and having fun. The things that I was not able to do because I was imprisoned will now be unlocked and I will be able to move around freely and without consequences.

If I Met a Famous Celebrity

If I met a famous celebrity, it would most certainly be Will Smith. The reason why I want to meet him the most is because of the fact that he is one of the most brightest and brilliant person that has come to be known for his skill and talent through his movies. One of the best movies that I have seen him play was the “Pursuit of Happiness”. This heart-warming sensational movie took me aback and it has shown me another side of an unparalleled world that I have never seen before about Will Smith. He has moved my heart in a way that I could never hate him ever again. The “Pursuit of Happiness” is based on a true story in which Will Smith has been given the honor to partake in which he revealed his tears through real situations in which no one else could do.

He had a series of shows with one of them being a comedy show that has left many enjoyable remarks throughout the world. It never cease to amaze me of how his jokes are all made at the spot.

Although he was a person who had failed in life at first, he was a bright and intelligent guy who came back to show the world that he will live up his dreams and do what he loves best.
