Kyrie Eleison

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2003

“The time has come,” the Walrus said, “to talk of many things.” But the time is now for me to be silent; not so much silent than less public.
I never realized how popular my online journal would become. And honestly, I enjoy it. But when I feel that I must shy away from topics or […]

He Wept

Sunday, April 20th, 2003

I find myself agreeing with the questions Jesus begged God before His crucifixion. Why did Jesus have to die? Was there any other way?
Would it not be like me asking myself for approval over a future event in which I solely controlled the outcome? Jesus’ questioning is the greatest example of internal conflict ever: […]

Virginia Tech and James Madison University summoned me, would be mostly paid for by my Meme & Papa, would put me back in a familiar area, and would physically reunite me with best friends and siblings. Boston’s beckoning of culture, opportunities, and […]

Home Alone

Saturday, April 12th, 2003

My San Diego family left for Virginia during their spring break. This meant that I was bestowed the tasks of domesticated animal maintenance for one dog and two bunnies.

Two Guys and a Girl

Saturday, April 12th, 2003

Postal Annex+ #2 bid farewell to its Filipino owners and hello to its two new British owners on Monday. Hemanshu and Minal Patel seem quite fun. At least I no longer have the Grand Tita creating problems and then blaming me. Anne stays around to train the new owners and offer her notary services. I […]
