-sweetness!! (of a really random post)
I didn't mean to have another entry for today, but something nice happened!

You see, I was looking at one of my favorite webcomics and I saw a filler image (which was nice, but I was missing the story pages) when a few seconds later- it got updated!

*many "yays!!" from the Daiko ensue*

Also, I will have a spoiler-y review of The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King soon- or at least, my response to the movie...

people who have yet to both
read the book
and see the movie
should not read this.

*laughs deviantly*
(it would have been just wrong and embarassing to have written that out- I am above that... enka-kun isn't ^_^)

and that webcomic I was talking about?

well, that was the light-hearted and often not too serious, RPG World comic

it's nice, it even gets...

a Daiko recommendation!!

*fanfare*

*yay!!* I got a dollar
and other somewhat non-serious things...

why?

-because I can (well, I will just for now)

****
besides the free money incident in my class
(this was just a few minutes ago, one of my fellow students was feeling sorry for the professor and took it upon herself to go and get him something nice to drink since she believed him thirsty, and because he wouldn't accept her monies)

A different girl from my class had told me the above, and then said, "-some student stole the money!" ...I felt really embarassed and didn't say anything at that moment, I was silent because professor had said I could take it... ^^;; I'm not a thief because of this, am I?

o.o;;

Earlier in the day, I was visited by two nicely-dressed ladies from Jehovah's Witnesses

o.o o.o and o.o!!

which is really odd for many reasons.

-they expected to speak to me in Spanish
(which I am not fluent in at all)

-I am Catholic, and a Christian firm in her faith,
a believer in miracles (Jehovah's Witnesses do not believe that such blessed events occur...)

but, I dealt with them kindly and they left
[both parties were a little confused after the encounter]

and they gave me some magazines to read.

the magazines?

Respectively: Awake! and another Jehovah's Witnesses publication The Watchtower

Now, these do contain some articles that are relevant and fully true, but not everything is correct...

The bad part is that what is written was done in such a way some of the articles are quite misleading. How? Well, it would appear that they have truth mixed with half truths. -sigh- It's hard to explain...(especially with my time limits)

I wonder, how did they get to my house in the first place?

...

[that's enough on that, for now]

Yesterday, I uploaded some newer artwork to deviantART- you can see it if you desire.

Of course, when you get to my page
you will have to scroll down a bit
and then you will get to
the art I have put up in my gallery

click on the names of the pieces
or the pictures themselves
to view them

and...

enjoy!!

****
final NOTE: I am sorry that today's entry of mine made such little sense, it was disjointed and hard to read, I know- so is my train of thought (isn't yours?)

Of course, by everything I have wrote
I mean no offense to ANYONE

so take NONE.

and remember, comment decently or not at all.
****

praying for you,

pray for me!!

third Daiko quiz of the year
and, quite inaccurate [of course]





How random are you?

this quiz was made by alanna

...really needs to have more options- t'was too limited.

transcriptions from Sunday
in other words, what I've written in my journal (notebook) on that day (yesterday)

[Yes, this is how Daiko writes to God.
Yes, it is odd and everything isn't written out clearly- this is where freedom in inscribing comes in; translation: He doesn't mind if it's hard to read]

begin transcription:
****

-sigh- My room is currently in a state of disarray- I have yet to fix it up... also, I forgot what it was that I wanted to say... that is bothersome to me.

Anyhow, my perceptions [of things...] don't matter greatly- You are the only one who sees everyone and everything completely and correctly- not me.

Still, I want to know what is best: to do the right thing, and to see things clearly- which, I can't do without You of course. -sigh-

Help me in my elimination of things that stand in the way of sanctification. For how can I truly be a holy person who is in tune with You if I am not spending my energies and time on Your will?

No, that must not be so.

I must live according to Your desires and not anyone else's if I want to be truly happy [as paradoxal as that may seem]

Somehow
somehow
somehow,
I will get over these slumps, and frights that are felt within my heart, and irritations of trivial things, and guilt of not doing more.

-for this will not help me.

It is all an obstacle in the way of my fully loving God, and are pains that do cause [unnecessary words omitted here] harm...

I prefer the steady firmness of Christ to these shaky, flimsy mental preoccupations anyway.

I'm not happy with the way things have been, nor am I glad about the [word omitted] discomfort I am causing myself right now.

-I will change this.

...

****
transcription ended.

-as to the discomfort I had caused myself as well as the disarrray I found myself in...

I resolved that. ^_^

...this just goes to show how different my writing style is in opposition to my blogging

-I didn't think that this would be the case, since I'm the same person... ah well, this can be remedied.

pray for me~

praying for you.

****
NOTE: I just noted that all the spaces that I'd originally typed in this post to mimic my style in journal writing didn't show up here... I'll let it slide for now.

Saturday of a Daiko
in which, once again- for the second time this year, she [and this time, her brother as well] has missed the opportunity for Confession at her parish.

;_; sadness!!

Besides that, the day has been pretty fair.

I'm here and happy- I've started knitting my first sweater ever, and I just love it!! ^_^

...I haven't said much about this hobby of mine, have I?

oops.

Well, I didn't mean to omit that particular detail about myself...actually, I've omitted lots more than that, haven't I?

I've still yet to do the "introduction posting" that is so common to people who do the bloging thing- I'm sorry, I'll remedy this neglect of mine some time within the year (yes, I will... why are you laughing? ^^;;)

Anyways, that was a piece of my life.

-praying for you as always...

see you next week everybody!!

mini update
just a little something before lunch over here...

Well, the Daiko's back online
but not too often

though she's got internet access at home,
and her family's computer returned from the shop and is working decently.

...

Also, I've got a webcam now
and I guess I'll see about using it to put some images online *shudders*

but,
I'm kinda shy about having people see me
not that I'm ugly and painful to look at

I just wonder if I should and all.

-that being said, how is it that one goes about to having a webcam broadcast to the net?

I know how one would use a 'cam when it comes to
instant messengers and all that, but as to having a website for the thing? I don't know.

help would be nice.

^_^

...I'll be back...later.

the second online quiz
that the Daiko took:

I took the What Mythological Creature Are you? test by lj user peacefulchaos!

...and I'm not sure what this is...
anyone care to explain?

all this time
left un-blogged about...where does it go?

...

Okay, that was just silly.

-since you know, as I do
that I'm alive and well during that time
(though I am offline and therefore, out of reach to my friends and blog-readers ^^;;)

...ah, I'm sorry that I don't have much to say at the moment- but I am glad that everyone's putting up with me. Everyone has a period of dead air at times, even Mr. O' Riely of television fame.

would that mean that I'm in good company?

...I don't know.

-anyway, I'm going to pray for all of you now.
and possibly, I'm going to upload several pictures I've drawn with my new stuff I got for my birthday -it'll be at deviant ART of course.

pray for me~

(and thank you everyone for not minding my absence too much- I do though. ^^;;)

wondering what actions to take
yes, that's almost a hallmark of mine.

I always wonder what it is that I should be doing
-not only with regards to this blog and my life in general, but with everything

-I even wonder whether this action is in itself good or bad... upon further thought and reflection... I don't really know.

Anyways, what I'm pondering about now is the fact that the home computer now has been fixed up (rather nicely in fact) and I wonder if I should start blogging from there again. -that would be nice and convienient, but I really have become very fond of blogging from places that aren't my home (due to the wonderful gift of free internet access and all that)

I guess this has become a habit of mine.

-anyways, these are my brief musings for today
as I am at the college and about to drive home and eat dinner

be blogging later!!

-bye!

the very happy and thankful Daiko
(yes, I am quite grateful to God)

...

pray for me~

third day of being twenty
...

that's right, Daiko is now 20 years of age!!

How does it feel? you ask...
well, kinda scary and fun at the same time. ^_^;;

Anyhow, since some of my readers have been so kind to pardon me from having a tight, and restrictive blogging schedual- I will most likely be blogging less, but that does not mean abandonment of this Daiko-project. Not at all- I really enjoy this very much (though I don't always have the time for it ^^;;)

and so, thanks everyone
bear with me please.

Oh yeah, as a "treat"
you guys who are reading this can find something of mine in the comment section of this entry
(that is only if you follow the directions...)
*laughs deviantly*

...
pray for me.
