a saint in training: my life on Earth

-stranded on a desert island-
not really, but I AM stuck at school -and for very odd reasons. o.o; ... -sigh- how I wish that I was able to stay here as I usually do, but I wonder what's happened to my younger brother and my car- my brother borrowed my car and left the campus with it, so I must wait until someone arrives to pick me up from school. I'm not complaining, I really don't mind waiting, I just don't want him to get into any sort of trouble, and I don't wish to stay at school until someone else arrives to get me. -yes, I'm concerned about this but it could be that I am worrying needlessly probably, my brother is safe and sound at home by now and later, my mom will come and pick me up I'll think positive thoughts there's no need to get myself stirred up over nothing really (unless something does happen). Did I happen to mention that my brother ONLY got his driver's liscence last Friday?! I am scared and afraid for him... o.o!!-please pray for me. -Daiko~ (yes, please do pray about this and for help in school for me and my brother...)

and we'll guard each one's dignity
and save each one's pride and they'll know we are Christians by our love, by our love
they will know we are Christians by our love~I have those lyrics to that song on my mind now- I tried looking this up over at [a lyrics archive] but I wasn't able to find it. Anyway, that really is my prayer- that whole song, I mean- for unity to be restored and for my people to be loving- it is hard to see this in action though. ...but I still believe that unity and kindness among people is possible. **** Aside from the above, I've had a few other things going on... I want to update my website so that I can incorporate these new things better. -let's see, as I had [said] [earlier] I now have my own [oekaki board] now. (I acquired it just a few days ago last week- last Monday, seven days from today in fact. o_0) (Please don't be intimidated by my rules- I would love to have people visit the place and have fun drawing- I don't have too many rules anyway... what I'm saying is, please stop by and draw something -it's kind of empty over there.) and last Friday... I finally got to [creating my own Cafe Press store] YAY!!-I am happy about that, I really love the fact that I'll be able to use my creativity and have my designs on something other than computer files or on sheets of paper. Still, please keep in mind that I'm not fully ready for customers today. I haven't gotten all my products finished up yet (I'm really not too sure about that sticker- I think that just popped up while I was testing out some things, but you can buy it if you want it- I'll probably take that "off the shelf" later though. ^_^;; ...) I'm sorry that I don't have some really good stuff in my store now, but I'll make sure to post an entry in the future when I have enough things finalized over at my store. (I'll be adding my store to my links, but keep what I've said about it in mind, okay?) **** hmm... that's quite a lot, isn't it? -the thing is, I think I've found myself able to blog again, so I think I'll be posting even more when I can (and it may be quite soon) interesting... -oh well, I'll blog more later, now I've got some work to do (finishing papers and getting merchandise worked out for my store- and I do want to update my website and learn CSS too...) -Daiko~ pray for me...

Life would be so simple if we'd all just learn to pray...
(this is part of a song that I have playing in my head- I've heard it quite recently on my [favorite radio station] over where I live, and this is quite good.) -or maybe, life would be even simpler for me if I would make more time for prayer because, I haven't been doing that- in fact, it seems like I'm neglecting my internal life (not to mention, my God). I'm sorry Father. I don't want to, and I'm coming home (albeit slowly) but please help me as I make this journey back to You- it's really hard for me to fight against my own foolishness, but I know that I want out of my own will and I know the way home. ...

late night posting
-may not be that good, but I'll write this one ... I want to figure out how to use a CD-RW properly, I think I know how to burn stuff (my personal art files- not illegal stuff) to one, but I don't know how to erase and then re-write X.x ... ah, oh well, I need prayer and sleep. later. -Daiko~

I need sleep...
I find myself going to bed at horribly late times- this is a recent occurrence, but I fear that this will become routine if I let this continue too long, and it's already been a few days now. -sigh- I'll overcome this, but it will take time... Anyway, I think I found out the problem with my oekaki board (note the fact that I said " think") from what I have observed, it appears that Mozilla users can't save their images when they use the board. I don't know why this is, but I do know that this is what I have seen. I haven't edited the board yet or gotten into my account to do customizing, so maybe it's a good idea if people stay away from there for now. Yes, that is the plan. -for now, anyway... -Daiko~ (I've had a slight headache all day, and I wonder why it hasn't left me- because of that and not feeling "chatty" I don't have much to say today.)

I am a happy Daiko
(and supposedly, this is my 200th journal entry- yay!) I have an [oekaki board] of my own now. (I'd say more, but I'm working on another paper at the moment- literally.) yay~~~~~~~!! **** EDIT: Do not use the oekaki board YET, I've been trying it out and it seems that there is a problem with saving pictures, and I haven't found out/fixed that so far. I want to get this taken care of but that will have to wait so please be patient. Thanks in advance.

my love of recording the events of my life
isn't enough for me to keep putting everything down before I forget it- or something like that, but it's not important that one remembers (or even knows) everything that they've been though. -that reminds me of naiviety, when people are some what unaware of things that happen around them... as I think about it, I realize that I am like that at times- things go on and I'm not conscious of them. -that can be good, and that can be bad. -but what about when life-changing things happen? should I be alert with regards to them? -what if they're not happening to me, but to someone I don't know very well...? hmm... I don't know. I'm quite naive. -Daiko~ (would say more, but should get to bed.)

-it's noisy ;_;
and I didn't post to my blog yesterday -I guess I didn't have the mental energy to do it since I was able to (I was in front of a computer with internet access) it's just that I didn't say anything when I could have (is that good? ...nevermind). bleh, and I don't know what to say now. ;_; ...oh well. Anyways, today is my grandma's birthday -she's 84 years old today. (...I thought she was already that age? -oooh, she's younger than I thought. ^_^ good.) [hee hee hee... I am being watched! XD -the kabi is waiting (impatiently) for his turn on the family computer...and I'm enjoying the wait.] **** -sigh- -more seriously though, I'll post better when I can I'm sorry that I didn't do too well with this entry today and for the lack of a good one yesterday. (I know that I have no obligation to do this, and that this isn't a job- but I love blogging. :love love:) **** before I go though, there's [a nice place to visit if you'd like to try out oekaki] -I hope that you will visit and see [what this oekaki thing is] that I like so much. -have fun! ... -Daiko~ (I'm so active on devTart XD ...and I'm going to let Kab have his turn~)

...events
there's a lot of them that I want to talk about there's a lot that I've gone through the past few days, such as: -my celebration of the 4th of July, the trip I took to Miami, and today's adventure to [Bible on the beach]but it's late here now, so I won't. **** I was on [Deviant Art] some time earlier when I ran across this painting that caught my attention- I really loved [the colors] on this piece (not to mention, that I really enjoy abstract art). Needless to say, [since I said it many times in the comments for the picture ^_^;; ...] I really loved this painting. -and I wonder if you liked it as well... won't you tell me so? -Daiko~ (I don't like the image because I know the artist, I love the painting because I find it to be beautiful.)
