Touch Of Gold

WARNING: PHOTOS ARE NOT ALL GOOD QUALITY BECAUSE I FORGOT TO CHARGE MY CAM, SO I USED MY PHONE.

18,250 days.. 438,000 hours.. 26,280,000 seconds.. 50 years of leaning on each other's strengths and forgiving each others weaknesses.



Iligan City Community Church, inc. spends this special moment with a touch of gold in a magical yet spiritual night. What is an anniversary? If you're like me who hasn't really celebrated an anniversary, you wouldn't understand why people would be happy with such an event.

*note:
If you don't know where ICCCI is, it is located at R. Jeffrey Rd., Pala-o, Iligan City(Between La Salle Academy and ILPI.)

Why would people celebrate "anniversary"? What is so special about it?
For me, this was really hard to relate. I didn't want to go and be with everyone at church, but a part of me was saying, "GO." To be honest, I was like a crazy person, I went in and out, then in and out.
It was embarrassing, and two of my soulmates(bestfriends) was getting tired of chasing me like a cat got out of cage. But in the end, I went inside the church, and trying to be "normal."😹😹

The church was filled with a lot of people. Young and old, religious and nonreligious, baptist and other more religions. At first, I never understand why people make a big deal with anniversaries.
But slowly, as the event started.. I was trying to look at the entire situation with a different angle.

This was not just any event. Anniversary is something really special...

This moment was about celebrating the joys of people today, memories of yesterday, and the hopes, dreams, and prayers for tomorrow. This was another year of overcoming the challenges and obstacles that God had given to His people. Another year of being a blessing to a lot of people.


A moment about giving people hope, that it is never too late to confess your sins, to love God with all your heart, mind, and soul.. And lastly, never too late to start over. Letting go of the past, and be your new self, the better version of who you were.


My favorite part of the event was the last performance, performed by the young people(Teens Growing In Faith) of ICCCI.💞 It reminded me of how I accepted Christ as my Lord and Savior.
If I was the only person there, I would definitely cry! But I won't because it would be embarrassing.


The choir group of ICCCI was a "wow", I was really speechless of how they performed.
Congrats Iligan City Community Church, inc.! The event was a success! You deserved all the applause. Before and after the event was AMAZING. It really added a touch of gold to my heart. If someone wants to argue, shut up! Hahaha, It was amazing, period.

This is not their last, there will be more upcoming events from ICCCI that will move our hearts and make everyone cry. So i'll be sure to blog the next one with better pictures.

Thanks to the people who agreed to be in the photo:

Something To Remember

Something To Remember July 7, 2016 was my 17th birthday, not really expecting that someone would greet me sincerely. I set the wall on my Facebook account to "only me" when it comes to posting. My best friend kept on telling me to go to sleep early so I wouldn't be late for my first period again. But on that time I knew he was going to greet me, but he wouldn't want me to see it a night before my day. I gave up, so I went to sleep. When I woke up in the morning, I was already late! I moved faster, trying to catch up with the running time, I had a little glance on my phone. I then saw my notifications! Some tagged me in their post, some sent me a pm, some texted me, and others tried to call me. But because I was running late for my class, I didn't had the chance to reply or answer their greetings. When I arrived at the school campus, I wasn't able to catch up with time. After the flag ceremony, I was sent to the preffict's office, But I...

Snap Snap ft. photos WARNING: This is just a shorter blog. Selfie, groufie, stolen, candid or whatever snap of photo it is, it has a lot to say. A single photo has a lot of story behind it. Our minds can create different stories based on one photo. Pictures is also an art. Every picture is an art, and every art has a story to tell that has the ability to amaze the beholder. It doesn't matter what medium you use to create an art. By the way, if you don't know what a "medium" is, it's this object or material that is used to create or to finish a piece. Example: A fancy paintbrush for a blank canvas, and an expensive digital camera for photography. You don't need to have the fancy or expensive stuff to create your own beautiful art, you CAN create the most beautiful work of art with or without such great medium.

FRIENDS

Friends Warning: Contain photos that will not please your beautiful eyes. ft. MY FRIENDS Hello to my amazing, wonderful, beautiful, handsome, and incredible readers!! First of all, I'm so happy that I am experiencing the sembreak that I've waited since the first day of class, which is sleep and sleep, until boredom roars at me. So I know that some(other schools) are not really experiencing the same thing for this week, some are flooded with homework, schoolwork, and other more? I'm not really that updated, all I know is some are busy with stuff from school. Honestly, I miss going to school! I miss being with my amazing squad and other friends, and this sembreak is killing me. Huhu! Yes, school can sometimes give an annoying headache, but with presence of FRIENDS, I know every bad day can turn into something extraordinary. Friends are the kind of people who can understand your silence and would laugh at your waley jokes, they're the ones who stay a...
