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.

^_^;; ...

if you wonder where Daiko is and where she's going...
I'll tell you.

-sigh- Yeah, I know that the posting schedual of the blog has changed somewhat- now it's every other day as well as the original "no blogging on Sunday" lineup. Which for me is not bad- I feel that this way, I can write better...well, it's not just that, and I'm still not sure how this is all going to work out [yes, this is due to the fact that I can't use my home computer anymore- it's going out for repairs since there's a virus inside it (or some other evil thing, it's got problems)- sad, isn't it?]

...and so, I'm going to try to have this blog be full of high quality entries as opposed to a high ammount of entries that I had posted last year.

...

the fact that I no longer have a working computer at home- how do I feel about that?

I don't really mind.
It's nice not being online so much
that way, I can appreciate my house and work on my life even more (I need to devote more energy to finding a good job anyways)

so, things are pretty decent over here in my world
...just need to plan for the future
and get things worked out

-wait!! I forgot
something really important!!

...

I need to make sure that I pray well everyday
for my readers
as well as everyone else.

-sigh- yes, that's a good resolution for me to keep this year.
-and I will...

pray for me.

a small space of time
in which one waits and learns
then matures
and grows to be able to love
to be responsive to others
and... to know God.

-that's what life is in a nutshell, isn't it?

...

I guess it's not really that strange, but life is always like this- I find that interesting in an odd way. Even when you're just waiting for a friend somewhere, sometime- one is still living and there is an opportunity for all of the things I have listed above... wow.

^^;; I'm not trying to make a mountain out of a molehill or anything, I just see these little details of life and I analyze them- sometimes, it scares me what I find, especially when I haven't meant to find it.

...

So, what do I do in this small space of time?

Whether I'm waiting for a few minutes for a friend to make their appearance, or for this life to come to it's natural end...what am I to do?

...in such a small space of time.

first quiz of the year...
as to accuracy [which I regularily would comment on after taking a quiz] I have no idea whether this is or not- I can't tell.


Your anime hair color is green.


What is your anime hair color?
brought to you by Quizilla

-still, this may look good on me
if I was an anime character of course.

ah~ how nice to be blogging again.

^_^ ...

[I hope I'll be able to blog more, I still have several things to do...things require my focused attention and I don't know what's going to happen...]
