Sleepy... -o-

Really tired. Been tired the whole day. Actually nodded off during homily today.

But was surprisingly awake for Choir Practice. Even though it lasted until 9pm, it was fun.

Daryl! That song I was telling you about is Out of Darkness. 663. Remember it for me. ;) I sing it for your send off present. xDD

TAKE LOADS OF PICS YEA. ): Vatican City ESP. CHURCHES. WHEEE. xDD STS PETER SQUARE. BETTER TAKE PICS FOR ME!!! xDD

Zomg. Mummy was talking about a trip to Japan. I hope she wasn't serious when she say they go when my school starts. That would be plain evil. T.T

On to a more serious noted...Easter is coming. And before that, Maundy Thursday. I started thinking about it on the bus. And then I felt like crying. That and because of something else.

I realise what a lucky person I am. I've got great friends, a companion, and while my family is not the best, and I feel like we aren't truly whole sometimes, it's better than having been brought up in a single parent family.

A good house, comfort, and all the things I ever need, with some wants granted as well. A roof over my head.

And above all, I've got a God that loves me. He loves all of us, so in that sense, everyone of us have untold wealth.

But I believe in that God. And that just makes me so lucky. He's touched my life, given me so much, carried me through so much. That I was born into a Catholic Family, brought up to know such a loving father (not my blood father I'm talking about here...it's God for those who don't know), that truly makes me lucky.

The knowledge of his love was practically handed to me on a silver platter. And I didn't begin to full appreciate it until I hit Sec One. I never really thought about it. I missed so much, back then. =\

And I know I've said this, how I really think that Jews ARE God's Chosen race, because, look at them, they've got money, and everything. And yet, they don't believe that God has already sent his son down to us. They are still waiting.

But, we, Catholics, Christians, whatever, we are equally lucky, because we believe. And that means so much more to me than money ever could.

The sacrifice he made for us. I cry when I think of having to sacrifice someone. And yet, he gave his OWN SON. He gave himself for us.

This Maundy Thursday, I think I will not fast because I have to. I will fast because I want to.

The day Christ died for us.

And the most important day in the Catholic calender. Easter.

Ja'ne!

-Ade-

PS: Daryl, my mum says when traveling, it's fine not to fast. But it's up to you. (: Try your best to go for mass k? But don't fret if you don't get to. God will understand. (:
