a saint in training: my life on Earth

One Thanksgiving
(NOTE: this is from yesterday as I felt last night on Notepad- exactly)

I had wanted to post this earlier, but my home computer was having slight problems going online again- and rather than annoy myself by trying to press the issue, I stopped.

-sigh-

Overall, yesterday was pretty good.
Everything wasn't picture perfect though.
(Not that anything [in this world] is- and what does that phrase mean, anyhow?)

A lot happened.
(-this is Daiko, even when she has quiet days- lots of things still go on)
I went through a lot emotionally and was strained spiritually.

I saw that there were members of my family who were angry due to unresolved issues that I didn't fully understand.
-I only noticed this since they took some of their feelings out on me (or so it seemed- actually, that's pretty accurate) and on the others.

ugh.
-that was really ugly.

Even worse, these bad things were kept hidden from everyone else when those family members of mine were out with other people [putting on a "happy public face" I guess] and that lead me to believe that they were really having a good time, and were no longer troubled. I was wrong.

Of course, some of us were fine.
And some of us, well we went on a rollercoaster ride
(emotionally)
which had lots of surprises through out its duration.
(Yes, that was me...)

I'm not sure what to say about that,
but I do know this:

my journal to God was very passionate when I wrote to Him.
Passionate indeed.
(by that, I mean that I was full of strong emotions)

...this is by no means the main event that went on yesterday
it's just that I was pained by it, and I just wanted to get that off my chest.

Anyways, for those of you who were waiting paitently
here's the good parts:

that morning, I stuffed the turkey
and watched parts of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade.
(the parade was quite nice, I really like the balloons
especially the fact that they are reusable
it's nice to see some of the older balloons
they're like floating works of art
that only gets a gallery exhibit once a year)

Later on, I watched some anime with Dave
and just hung out with him in his room
(he's my brother if you didn't know
-and that was really fun, I don't get to relax
so peacefully that often. I usually feel guilty for doing so-)

+interruption: I was caught off guard by my mom here while I was typing this- it was very unnerving. At first, I was a little frightened since she came up behind me silently (she does that quite a bit around me- I don't like it). Then, she asked me who I was writing to, and I said that I was writing to no one [not that you guys are nobodies, it's just at that time I was just typing something out on notepad that wasn't directed to anyone in particular- that's why I said that]. I was relieved when she left. [...]

sarcasm: {Oh boy, I lost my train of thought- this is just great.}

my room got cleaned somewhat, and now I have more space to sleep in.
(yay!)

also, the scanner and internet connection at my house still works so I can continue making updates to my works
(double yay!)

hn...I haven't covered everything, but that's is fine for this entry.
I have a lot of thanking that I want to do,
and thanks that I have yet to give to God
I know that He's been waiting to hear it.

And I will be happy to do so...
