    WHERE IS GOD?

     In our present time, our country have already experienced tragic calamities. many people died, lost their business and houses, and even their own faith. But who will be blamed  in these tragic problems? Is it the government who did not solve the problem? Is it God who made all these things? Or is it the people who did not believe that God is with us?

     So I asked myself, "where is God?".For me, Gos is everywhere, and I know that he is just up in heaven...watching us. When I turn on our radio. I heard a song that is all about God. So I searched it in the in the internet and hoping that I will find God. The title of the song  is "One of Us", sung by Joan Osborn, and the lyrics is this:

If God had a name, what would it be?

And would you call it to his face?

If you were faced with Him in all his glory.

What would you ask if you had just one question?

And yeah, yeah, God is great.

Yeah, yeah, God is good.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...

What if God was one of us?

Just a slob like one of us

Just a stranger on a bus

Tryin' to make his way home

If god had a face what would it look like?

And would you want to see if, seeing meant

That you would have to believe in things like heaven

And in jesus and the saints, and all the prophets?

Back up to heaven all alone

No, nobody calling on the phone

No, just tryin' to make his way home

Nobody calling on the phone

'cept for the pope maybe in rome

memories

My high school life this year is so memorable. Many  things happened, failures, happiness, laughters, fears and joy. I will forget these things, because every month, something happens.

JUNE    : GETTING TO KNOW EACH OTHER

      We met each other. First they gather all the high school students in the Magnificat Center. On the next day, we met our adviser, Sr. Michael Galam, then we had a classroom election. I was happy because I was nominated as the class auditor. Then on the following day, we memorized the names of each other, we had an activity in English, we must add an adjective that starts with the first letter of our names into our nicknameslike ; Eager Eloisa, Jolly Jo, Joker Jena and etc.

JULY    : BONDING STARTS

    The High School Student Council parties; Mirmo and Let's Go campaigned in our classroom. Most of us, joined as the supporter of Mirmo Party, and because of this, we became close to each other.

AUGUST : FOLK DANCE

    In the month of August, we had a Folk Dance Competition. And our class chose to dance Carinosa, we were so nervous, and thingking that maybe we will be eliminated because we're not prepared. Unfortunately, we didn't get it to the finals. Sr. Galam also left our school, to go in Indonesia, but he said that Ma'am Jenny Arimbuyutan wiil take his place as our class adviser.

SEPTEMBER : OUR OKRA PLANTS              

    In the month of September, we planted five seeds of okra in our subject, Values Education. The result is fine, because they are starting to grow. We also watched a mini-concert "The Encounter".

OCTOBER   : THE CHEER DANCE COMPETITION

    This event, is one of the memorable things that happened in my life. ESC 1-Arimbuyutan and Tuazon fought because of this competition. But with the help of Ate Leli of IV-Kapayapaan, the problem was solved. Tnx a lot Ate Leli...

They are all mad at us, they are always saying that "ESC lang kayo, nagmamagaling na kayo". We are all mad and so disappointed at them. They don't know our hardships, and the pressures in class.

DECEMBER   : CHRISTMAS PARTY

LoVe sPeLL

Then one day my turn came...

I was 15 years old, a third year high school student of College of the Immaculate Conception, an ordinary high school girl. I never thought about "love life" and what I know about love life is having a relationship with someone you love and that love leads to destruction- breaking up...That is why I don't want to be n a relationship.

But one day, a student, same as my age went into our classroom, he was tall, cute and has a tantalizing eyes. He asked my classmate where room 666 is, and he left. he became the gossip of the school because he is a transferee, a fourth year high school student.

One day, my frinds and I went to the library, I saw a bok tha caught my attention because of its color and title.

The book is all about making someone to love you. And there is a spell to attract a boy/girl. The spell is:   1. Write his/her name seven times on a piece of paper.

2. Put the paper in  an envelope or even better, in a locket.

3. Carry the envelope (or wear the locket) for seven days and nights.

Right after I went home, I looked for my locket my sister gave to me and wrote the name of that guy in a pink paper. I always wear my locket. I don't believe in magic, bu its a real fun, and I want magic to be reality.

 Seven days and nghts have passed, but nothing happened. I was sad, magic is just magic, still I am hoping, hoping that it will come true.

Our time is running on...it is already March, and he will leave our school, I know I will miss him. But after two years, we met. I was invited in a wedding- my cousin's wedding. I was the bride's maid, I was curious who the best man is and she said that it is her groom's friend.

On the wedding day, I was shocked because the best man is the transferee guy in our school. My introduced us to each other. We chat and chat and chaton thet day. We became friends, we text each other and meet hrice a month.

 I was working in an advertising company, we make commercials on TV, while he, he's a nurse in a hospital near our company. So we ate our lunch together, and going home together. Everytime we talked, our topic is all about his future girl, he always asks me what girls lke much?what is the perfect gift for his girl?, what girl likes about boys?, and etc. that iritates me much. He has a locket also, and he said that the name of his girl is in his locket. I'm always asking him who is that girl, but he said " you will know her someday."

A few weeks later, he invited me, because he wanted to show me hs girl, I said "yes", eventhough I don't want to come. That night, I went to the place, I saw him nad he said " Now, you will know who my girl is. Then he gave his locket to me and I opened it. I was surprised that I hugged him, because the name writen in the paper is mine. He said that it is a spell from a book in the librarywhen we're high school, I also showed him my locket, and he smled.

After that, I realized that being in  lovelife can make me higher, and that not all people that is inlove makes them stupid, coz love leads to a happy ending.

Dear Ate,

          How are you? I hope you're fine and doing your job well there. Here, our body is shaking and freezing. It is very, very, very cold. I'm sure it's cold there too.

     Our time is short, right? It's February, and I have only one month to be with my classmates. Life in school is very hard and challenging. We have to study, to study and to study. But I know this is only a training of being an independent person. Life in high school is different in my elementary days. I used to play and wath T.V. whenever I want before, but now, I don't have much time in doing such things.

     By the way, we miss you so much. Len-Len and Lynette is always waiting for you. And Kuya also, he said thatplease buy him an Animal Scene Magazine, February issue.

                                                                                                                                                                  Love Lots,

                                                                 Lei

P.S. Will you please buy me just one book of Lemony Snicket? Please, just one, and please reply as soon as possible.
