Save Me, My Hero!

Jacob Black is a famous character in the bestselling novel by Stephenie Meyer, Twilight. He is the once typical best friend of Isabella Swan also known as Bella. He has always been around his best friend, ready to comfort her and take part in her misery.

In her time of depression, when her leading man, Edward Cullen has left her, Jacob was ready to lend her his shoulder for her to lean on and shed her tears. He was ready to give light to her darkness. He was ready to give warmth to her cold and freezing life. He was ready to stitch back her broken heart. Truly enough he is a reliable friend.

And when it was Jacob's time to face some difficulty, when he turned into a werewolf, it is now Bella's time to accept her fully, regardless of what he has turned to. She accepted his fate and stayed with him as long as she can.

A Friend in need is a friend indeed! That’s what friends are for, helping each other to stand up when they fall down. For me, our best friends are our everyday heroes. They are there whenever we need them. They are our wall, where we can lean on.

As for Bella, Jacob Black is a hero as well, just like Edward. He gave her another purpose for her to exist, another purpose to live. In short, he saved her from doom, just like how a hero would save her damsel in distress or someone special and important.

Heroes are not only honored as when they save a person’s life. Giving a person her new purpose and giving her hope is part of it as well. Saving a person emotionally is the same as saving her from death. Stay with me my friend,my hero, and be with me till the very end.

Jingle bells, Jingle bells...

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way...

As usual, I woke up early to go to church this Saturday morning. As soon as I am up, I took a bath, got dressed and ate breakfast, and finally prepared my things before leaving. In there, we had our usual lesson study together with my co-small group. Then after that, we shared some of our experiences regarding our topic. Then we closed it off with a prayer.

Then later on, we sat at the same place with the other choir members in praperation for the upcoming response. After the prayer, our choir had a special number and later on we sat back at our places and isten to the sermon. After about less than an hour, the pastor finished speaking, we had the closing song, closing prayer, and then we were dismissed.

That afternoon, we had our choir's practice at about 1 o'clock, after having lunch. we reviewed some of our pieces and had the vocalization before starting. Then we had the A.Y or the afternoon program after evrything. The activities were not only fun and entertaining, but they reminded us about the important things to remember, such as the christian songs and the historical places in the Bible where God's miracle took place.

The little kids also took their part by singing a song praising and thanking God for their good health. Then after a short discussion, we had a group dynamics and we discussed with each other the topic assigned to us. After that, we had the closing song and the closing prayer led by our church practice.

Then, at about 7:30 pm, we went back to church and met there to start our caroling for a fund raising. We started off with the neigboring place, who are church members as well. We went to everyone's houses and sang some Christmas songs to lighten up their spirit, and for them to tis the season. We ended up at about 9 pm, and parted ways. I enjoyed singing songs to them as well and it reminded me of the reason why we celebrate christmas, because of love.

Review time!

As soon as we were informed of the upcoming contest in the Environmental Science, we were pulled out of classes starting on Thursday. It was really tiring reading from morning till afternoon, but it was all worth it learning all these facts.

We reviewed all the topics regarding pollution, a little bit of physics and chemistry, and partly ecology, including the general facts about Science and the laws implemented to protect mother nature.

We are staying at the stockroom, our home sweet home, where it is somewhat quiet, enough for us to concentrate in studying. At times, we stay in the LRC together with the other environmentalists, as what we call ourselves, and discuss things that we don't quite understand. The seniors tried to assist us in the best way they can and share some of their knowledge to everyone especially to the freshmen.

It was really fun hanging out with the others while we are reviewing. It makes it more entertaining rather than being boring. After each day's work, ate Maikka and I reviewed each otherby exchanging questions. It was kinda sad though, the fact that we can't attend classes and I totally miss my friends.

I miss the times when I always chat with Pam, Jen and Kat about books, manga, and stuff. It really makes me sad not being able to do so, since I have to focus about the contest for now. But I want to think of it as a once in a lifetime chance, a chance I should not let go of.

Anyway, it is also nice, since I began to got closer to the others and learn more from them.Through this, I got more prepared and got less tense for the coming individual test. Anyway, the big event is a few days ahead and I am full of excitement and nervousness, wish me luck!
