It's Official

 

August 13th, Not in All Caps

It is the end of the weeeeeeeeeek!!! VBS is basically done. No classes today, just a closing ceremony type deal. We thank all the kids for coming. We ask the parents to join us in future services. We give away little prizes and such. Have a nice sermon. Take down decorations. It's a good time.

The best part is it's Saturday. SO I got enough sleep today. I have time to do my own thing today. I'm not gonna come back super exhausted. And NEXT week when I get out of work, I get to have time for me again. I'll get more sleep. It'll just be great. VBS is always fun and it's so great to see the kids gain a love for God. We even had kids accept Christ as their savior this week, which is a MAJOR STEP and I know that God will be there to guide them in the future. It's a blessing to do this every year. But let me tell you, it's amazing to be done. Whoo! Back to business as usual.

A Moment of "Finally"

Mandy went to church with us today! I'm so grateful this could finally happen. We'd been trying to plan this for forever. Not only was she finally able to attend a service at Covenant Life, but it's the first time we've seen each other all summer. It was much needed. I also texted Nick for a bit today. Which, admittedly, feels a little silly to blog about. But it's honestly so important to me.

I am the worst and I'm taking forever. Your letter is coming soon, I promise

SUNDAY THE 20TH

WE HAVE NO REHEARSAL. MEANING WE ARE FREE. AND JEN AND I CAN FINALLY PLAN THIS MEET & GREET. PRAISE JESUS HALLELUJAH

Hey Naruto Shippuden. How have you been? It's been a while. I mean I've sorta been watching your new episode every week, but for the past SEVERAL months, I've only been kinda watching. You know. Filler arc that lasted forever, when all the fans want to see is the end of the war. Gotta say I lost interest for a bit. But you're finally back! Which is so great! And now we can get back to my show <3 What a great feeling. And we got right into the action already! I'm so proud. I've missed you. Good to see you again, buddy.

Iam hope u can forget what I said before and just be friends

But seriously. What is my life. Whatever it's over. We happy dance.

El Chisme

Reason 329: Interesting co-workers. I mean, everyone is older, having done this for years, using this job to feed their families and pay bills! So I can't really relate to people that much. Well at the end of the day, I had a nice little chat with Ana. She's a woman who worked in another branch of our store, but she's new to our branch. So we're basically both the new girls, and it's kinda cool 'cause it makes me feel like I'm at least close to someone's level. And it was actually kinda a funny chat, just sharing war stories. I definitely enjoyed. Then a man named Polo joined. He's been in charge of the deli since as long as I can remember. He's known me all my life. He's a bigger guy, absolutely hilarious. Apparently someone asked him about me? He didn't know the guy but he knew his friend. And then I remembered, one kid whose shirt I really liked and I made a joke about it. He was actually pretty attractive (as attractive as the typical Hispanic model can be loli'mgoingtohell). Turns out he asked about me afterwards! And leave it to Polo to come tell me haha. It's odd, but definitely flattering :)

Unexpected Review

Reason 304: So I watched a new anime. It's called Rosario to Vampire.  

Prepare for some massive spoilers. Which I won't feel sorry about because this show is NOT worth watching.

So there's this kid, Tsukune. He is pretty weak. He's not the macho type, but rather the sweet and shy type. His build is average, I'd say. He accidentally enrolled into a high school (boarding school). On his first day, he runs into this ridiculously attractive girl named Moka. They become bestest buds on the spot. Once they get to school, all these guys are like HOLY CRAP SHE'S SEXY, and she's all Tsukune <3333333333333 insert hearts and bubbles and pink glitter everywhere. So all these guys already hate Tsukune. First class, Tsukune finds out something very important: This is a school for monsters. It is within a barrier so no humans can get in (whoops). The purpose of the school is for monsters and humans to coexist, SO since humans aren't exactly fond of monsters, there are 2 major rules. One, all students must be in human form at all times. Two, you must not tell anyone your true monster identity. Because of these rules, Tsukune is able to go undiscovered (by everyone except Moka, who he already told). Turns out, Moka's rosary around her neck is a seal. Once it is pulled off, her true vampire self is revealed (she goes from a cutie with pink hair and green eyes to a BAMF with white hair, red eyes, and a haunting voice). So obviously Tsukune is freaked the hell out but he decides to stay. The rest of the show is everyone being REALLY BAD at following these 2 simple rules, every other girl falling for Tsukune (some of which become his friends and continue to fight over him through the show although he and Moka are clearly gonna be a thing), and Moka's rosary getting pulled off so that BAMF Moka can save them from whatever idiot monster arrives.

Problems with this show:

1. Predictable plot for every episode
2. Shows where 1000 people like the same character SUCK
3. Score/Music is awful. Openings/Endings are decent.
4. Even though the art & plot are super girly, it was obviously done by a male. Boobs and panties EVERYWHERE. I couldn't go a full minute in episode 1 without complaining about the skirts. If you need to censor the image constantly, JUST MAKE THE SKIRTS LONGER.
5. Sequel to the series should've just been one long series. And the sequel added a VERY unnecessary character that I want to kill.
6. There's a problem when my favorite character is the narrator.

BUT the point I'm trying to make (excuse my rant) is that I finished it today. It's over. I can MOVE ON. YAY MOVING ON FROM AWFUL THINGS. I'll give it props though. The plot for the last 3 episodes was pretty good. Overall had an awful message (similar to Jem with the whole which version do I like even though they're THE SAME PERSON). But the ending and moral end up being pretty cool. Anyway. No more. Onto better things! (Hopefully). Next in the line up: FMA Brotherhood, Naruto SD, and Attack On Titan. ALL AT ONCE!

Also, I'm on a serious Bruno Mars kick. I ADORE the groove in this song.
