everybody was having so much fun, but, not all of them knew
how tired we were in preparing for the day.
last Saturday night, i went to the church at 5:20 pm for our
praise and worship practice. it was not the usual practice that
we always have. we practiced 8 songs. 4 of them are new.
it's for the morning and afternoon youth service. i don't know
what's up with me that time because i really had a hard moment
of memorizing the lyrics. i felt so drained. the absence of the other
back up singers made it even harder. i was letting my all my
strength to come out because it's the only thing that i need and
supposed to do. when were done, i could hardly breath. i don't mean
it literally. i was just so amazed that i did most of the singing than
anybody else did.
after the practice, kuya ryan and i went to their house to get my brochure
from him.i was not expecting to see them (welmar, ate pamie, wawing and
dave) in the living room cutting out the printed letters for the church
decoration.they were the people who made the decoration in the church
anniversary last September, too. we finished it at 12am. i was supposed to
go home after i got the brochure but they forced me to stay. they asked me
to help since i was there last anniversary decoration. and so i stayed. we had
dinner their. they got fried chicken and i got fried fish. poor me. duh. it has
always been this way. i'm used to it already but it still make me feel pitiful to
myself. so much for the dinner drama, we continued doing our work. we finally
had it all done at 1:20 something in the morning. i got home at 2. fall asleep
at 2:30 something. woke up by a human mouth alarm clock.
i am so thankful to God that i have gone through that day with happiness in spite
of the headache and back pains i had. He's always their - to renew my strength -
that's what we will always be thanking of, even if it's not a thanksgiving day.
