this is really cool...
(Yes, I should go home SOON; and yes, this is a quiz- but it's a good quiz and I just wanted to share it with you- pretty much that's all. ^_^)


You are Ephesians.


Which book of the Bible are you?
brought to you by Quizilla

Go try it, it's fun!!

what happened to Daiko...
^^;; as I said before, I wasn't able to post a blog yesterday due to the fact that the computer at home was not working correctly- yes, it's sad; and yes, I don't know why it is being so buggy~

anyhow:

*she went to her Anatomy & Physiology classes
(A&P class, and A&P lab)
then she studied the muscles
(in lab- we had to identify and name the muscles by using plastic models)
and reviewed muscle motor units, and how muscles react to stimuli
(I was on time, and able to study well today)

*checked out the blog- posted an entry, and found out that I had comments from people... o.0
(people are reading this? really? wow!
Thank you everyone. ^_^)

*woke up late this morning
(probably due to the fact that I'm taking a dietary suppliment, I'm not exactly sure what it's effects should be on my body, but I'm taking it out of obedience to my mother and my aunt. ^^;;)

*looked at the monarch butterflies and caterpillars in the garden of the front yard
(and ended up getting rained on- and this is not the first time I've done this either)

*brought some extra chocolates to school
I did that since candy doesn't get eaten too often in our house-
and if the candy doesn't get eaten, it just gets wasted- that is bad.
(Strangely enough, my classmates didn't seem to want any- I wasn't able to give any to my friends either...weird, huh?)

pretty much, those are Daiko's highlights today
(yeah, today was really quiet- I mean, yesterday and the days before were full of activity in comparison)

earlier:

last Friday
*gave out lots of candy to the children that came to my door on October 31 and spent that night praying for everyone
(I love giving out candy- and that's partially due to the fact that most children love recieving candy; at least, I know I did when I was a little girl.)

*didn't go over to enka-kun's house that night
(sorry hon! I was busy- seriously.)

last Saturday
*attended a wonderful Mass on All Saints Day
(as usual, I had woken up late- but I made it just in time. yay!)

*actually made it to Confession

*had wonderful dialogues with the saints
and also had a good idea for a painting...

*cooked my specialty food Tempura Shrimp & Kakiage and ate it!

*(the above activity had to do with this one)
celebrated my Ate Baby's birthday
(I don't know how old she is- I forgot to ask.
I do know that this is the first birthday she has ever celebrated in the States since she used to live in the Phillipines before)

...

woo~ that was fun.
As I said, a lot happened.
I'm going to add my account of Sunday's adventures in the next entry (unofficially schedualed for tommorow- that is, if everything works out as I plan it to...)

but for now
's about it.

It's late, and this Daiko needs to relax and get herself home (from college).
Pray for me, I'll be praying for you.
bye!

^_^;; not much of an entry I'm afraid...
Well, yesterday is the first day that I wasn't able to keep up with my regular posting schedual.

Why?

...that's due to my home computer deciding to rebell (once again). For some strange reasons (that I can't figure out) there is no online capability on our home computer anymore. -how this is going to affect my ability to blog, I really don't know.

And so, I'm sorry that I didn't have an entry for yesterday- I really wanted to; a lot has happened, and I had many fun adventures since the end of last month.

But, there are time constraints. (Aren't there always? -sigh-) Especially since I will be using public computers (free internet access in the library) and all that. I won't complain though.

I'll do what I can, and I know God will stand by me.
I'm happy.

(I will try to post more in the near future...)

I'm praying for you!
Pray for me!

^_^

YAY!! (yay!) ^_^
Ha, hah~ I accidentally hit "enter" when I first posted this entry today. ^^;; So, I ended up posting this when it only had the title. (ah~ silly me.)

Aside from that,

I

AM

HAPPY!!

Why you ask?

Because...
today, I
-I actually,
*cries with joy*
...

made it to Confession!

YAY!!~

It feels wonderful (beyond Earthly words) to be fully cleansed of evil/sin.

Wow...it's great- a foolish wretch like me,
to be free and clear of all my crimes
all my folly
all my Earthly doings.

*sniff* I never want to sin/be evil (ever) again.

I'm so happy...
(Pray for me! ^_^
I'm going to pray for you today too.)

WOO HOO!!~

cosplay...
(I am fine, I usually post quiz results when I am feeling really bad, but today I am posting these for other reasons...to have fun, I guess. ^_^)



What Magical Girl Are You?



What Outlaw Star Character Are You?

and just one more...



What Shoujo Mascot Are You?

there!
all done.
back to normal tommorow.

Pray for me~

happiness is strange wanderings in dark evenings...
(or so I feel tonight)

Yes, I know that it's "Halloween"
and supposedly, people usually
feel strange impulses to go out and do weird things.

I understand that.
But I feel different tonight myself.

Not different in the way that I'd want to be scary and do evil things while hiding my identity.
This is Daiko here, and I'm not one who really enjoys that kind of stuff too much.

I feel that breath of the evening air
and that somehow,
someway
I can wander
I can be myself
I can be alone with the moon behind me,
the stars above me,
the grass and trees sighing.

I want to walk away and fade into the night.
-sigh- ...

today Daiko...
*worked on her website some more
(I have problems designing tables the way I'd like to
Also, I think I need a new CGI host for my two free tagboards from 8op.com)

*edited blog (and posted a song!)

*took an odd "quiz" that supposedly would be able to determine my gender by the words I use in my posts
(I have no idea of how it works, and yes no link for now ^_^)

*felt like this= gah! @.@ *headachy*
*talked to various people online
(names will not appear since I do not want anyone to recieve conversations from many strangers- no offence meant, I'm sure you understand)

*was online too long...^^;

*studied Anatomy & Physiology via CD-ROM
(muscular system)

*cleaned room
(minimally)

*attended Mass
*prayed Divine Mercy Chaplet as well as the Rosary ^_^
*did not attend prayer group
(for the strange reason that we didn't meet today!
o.0 ...it's odd.)

*gave enka-kun the URL to The Pirate Anime FAQ
*felt sick~

and for now, that's about it...

ugh~ I don't feel good. Please pray for me.
(I'm going to see about posting some better stuff in a little bit, but ugh! I need a break...)

good stuff.
By Surprise
Words and Music by Jesse Butterworth and Joy Williams

I?ve got a secret to tell
A midnight confession
I love the life that I lead
But it?s no obsession

Because I?m waiting, anticipating
Watching for Your return
You?ll come and get me
You know I?m ready
Enjoyed my stay, but You?ll steal me away

CHORUS
Like a thief in the night
Like a runaway train
Like a first class, lightning fast hurricane
I?ll keep my ear to the ground
And my eyes to the sky
I?m ready now but somehow
I know You?ll take me by surprise

So I?ll keep spreading the word
To everybody
Until the masses have heard
About that party

Because I?m waiting, anticipating
Watching for Your return
You?ll come and get me
You know I?m ready
Enjoyed my stay, but You?ll steal me away

[return to] CHORUS

Cause I R.S.V.P.?d on the invitation
I sent it care of the blood
That saved me the spot
With the One who will come

[return to] CHORUS

I just heard this on my favorite radio station just a few seconds ago)

^_^ yay!

what did Daiko do today?
(finally, a somewhat autobiographical record of the author- yay?)

today I:

*updated and fixed some things in my website
*added an orange tagboard to the profile...
*found a nice blog to add to the links
*got my hands frozen while typing in the library
(strangely enough, it is not too cold outside -being in Florida and all; but it is really cold inside since people seem to think that it's always a good idea to have the air conditioning on.
So yes, I am cold.)

*went to Anatomy and Physiology I lecture class late because I was online in the college cafeteria beforehand ^^;;
*went to the MegaTokyo forums to check out some things and ended up re-taking the Naruto quiz I gave to Ryo-san
*learned a new HTML trick: how to have links load in a separate window

*wondered about people
Namely, why I wasn't able to see Cassandra yesterday
where and what could Ashley be doing?
where is enka-kun online and what is he doing?
wondered about myself, and how I could improve.

*prayed the Divine Mercy Chaplet

...and that is a small summary of Daiko's activities today. I need to do more though...

****
EDIT: also I-

*searched for other Christian blogs
(I didn't find much...*is sad about that*)

*looked for the lyrics to a new Plus One song
(but didn't find it)

*lost my train of thought
*remembered that my Ate Baby has her birthday coming up this Saturday!
*that on Halloween, I am going to be good and stay home all night (;_;...) to serve candy to others (yay?) [sorry enka-kun, Daiko's not coming to see you this year on that night, but I will pray for you and possibly I will be over for a visit soon...]
*wondered why enka-kun doesn't care to read my blog (or so he wants me to believe) and why this is so...
*used that "hidden text" I'm so fond of in this entry
*wondered why my tagboard provider seems to have so much server trouble...

new!
*changed the name of this blog from a saint in training: my life surrendered to Christ to a saint in training: my life on Earth
-not because I love Jesus less, but the title is more accurate...
(I really could explain this better, don't you think? -silly me. :p & XD)

...

and now, that should cover (most of) it.

Pray for me, okay?
bye~!

effort to change...
I resolve to do better.
I resolve not to whine and to sink to the depths of despair when I do stupid things.

I resolve to put others first before my own desires and needs.
I resolve to work hard and be God's child and warrior.

...and I know that all these resolutions mean nothing if I don't rely on God's strength.

Pray that I succeed.
