My baby's graduation

Date: 7/31/2008
Time: 11:50 pm
Place: Home


When ever you achieve a goal in life you are thrilled and exited. Now imagine what a parent feels when one of their children achieves a goal. This is exactly my case. My daughter Katelyn who is 5 years old is graduating from pre k to kindergarden. Yes it might seem silly but it is a milestone for her. This was her first experience in an all learning enviornment and she was a trooper all along. She never cried, because she wanted to be home. In the contrary shewas the most popular girl in school. It makes me more than proud the achievement she has obtained. I am so nervous to see her in her little graduation and all but I can't wait for next tuesday to come. This news has been the remedy for my rapid recovery from my horrible monday night.

Assaulted

Date: 7/30/08
Time: 8:37 am
Place: Home

Monday night as I was coming home from work at night, I was assaulted by 2 females and 1 male. They hit and bruised me up in order to take my bag , and inside my bag was my phone, books from school, keys, and my wallet with all my identifications inside. I begged them to give me at least my documents and what they did was hit me even more.

You would think that you can come home from work and be safe but as I experienced that is hardly the case. It was such a horrible experience I would not want anyone to go through that ever.

Monday is coming.

Time: 8:15 pm
Place: Home


Hey here I am sitting in front of my computer and as I have just finished uploading all my homework and posting for my threads, I can not help but to lament the upcoming Monday which is tomorrow. Wow just thinking about it puts me into a sort of bad mood. Well but that is life what can you do right.

Tomorrow will come and it will pass all I can do is make the most of this day. Use it productively and try to complete as much work as I can possibly can. Then it will be sooner than later before the weekend comes again. And the cycle will repeat itself forever.

The Weekend!

Date: 7/26/08
Time: 8:58pm
Place: Home

I love the weekends, specially in the summer. You have the opportunity to go to the park or take a nice walk and enjoy the nice weather. You can have a nice little get together with your family and friends. Go have a picnic and have a bar b que. Summertime specially in the weekends you hear joy and happiness in the streets. The sound of the ice cream truck. The kids playing with their bicycles, balls and waterguns. The sound of their laughter. The weekends is a time to enjoy, relax, go on trips and enjoy the nice weather. Hope everyone is enjoying their weekends.

Place: Steph's House

Today has been busy from start to finish. Erans from left and right. But I still had time to pamper myself. It's the best feeling.

It was also a beautiful sunnyday that was ideal for the beach or outdoor activity. Well we went to a birthday party for my six year old niece. Its just nice to spend quality time with the family you know. Because sometimes a few months pass by and we don't see each other.

Work Stress

Date: 7/24/2008
Time: 1:10 pm
Place: train via blackberry



I consider myself to be a hardworking individual. I am always willing to perform my duties at 150 percent, regardless of the workload. I like my job and I have fun doing it. The problem is that lately I hate waking up to go to work and when I'm there I feel stressed to the max.

I think in my personal opinion that a good manager is there to maintain order, establish reasonable deadlines and make our jobs easier because if we have a concern or a problem we can go to them for answers. A good manager motivates the employees and provides a pleasant enviornment. Well not at my job ever since we got our new boss back in January.

This situation has taught me that upper management at time feels pressured to fill executive positions and do not follow the interviewing process to the point. What they end up doing is that they are lured into hiring someone with an incredible resume without checking if they can really do such things as they have listed in their resumes. Well we got an idiot and you wonder who is so stupid that they would hire this idiot without noticing how big an idiot this person is. The sad part is that the customers, clients, employees, and the office as a whole suffers the consequences. Turnover increases and the work load doubles on everyone and the office performance declines. That is so sad because all is because of one big fat idiot. Until they get rid of him let's see how long it will take before I explode.

Countdown to Armageddon

Date: 7/23/2008
Time: 8:40 pm
Place: The 7 train via blackberry


I am here in the train thinking about the movie that I just saw in class, Countdown to Armageddon. It was a documentary and even though it may not hold down the same suspense as an action movie it does become interesting to hear the religious aspects of the end of the world. This movie addresses the beliefs of Jews, Muslims, and Christians it primarily addresses the book of revelation in the bible. Looking more into the position and belief and time setting for the end of time that Christians have set but have not yet to happen.

I found this film interesting and would recommend it to anyone to watch. Also this movie I saw many things that Weinland quoted in his book 2008-God's Final Witness. Even though I think that he a little crazy he spoke about similar things that were exposed in the movie.

You know what captured my attention the most I would say thatit was the part where the fourth horseman is suppossed to spread death and that a fast and efficient of it happening could be through Volcanos. Did you know that there are around 3,000 of them? What if all of them where to start errupting at the same time as a punishment for not living to God's way? What about the diseases? We tend to not think about stuff like that until you are actually either reading or watching a movie about it. You cannot help but to wonder, are we really in the end times? Or wether or not you would be saved if you repent, from this tragic ending.

Wacky Weinland

Date: 7/22/08
Time: 11 am
Place: Work

I have reach the end of this book 2008-God's Final Witness by Weinland. It is amazing the way a person can say do much in one book. How this person can hurt other people by insulting their culture and beliefs. I think it is important to be respecful of others because just as he believes he is right a Jew, Muslim, or a Christian can come up with a book that supports everything that they hold dear in their faith.

I think after reading this book that Weinland is disturbed and something happened to him that he needs to bash out on other people this form of rubbish that he is so inclined to believe. He believes seriously believes that he is a prophet and that it is his duty to tell us the reality and the punishment that we will receive for ignoring God. I diagree with him because even if he believes every other religion is wrong, religions have one purpose that is to workship the God we hold dear because it was passed down from family or because you choose that faith. So people have always worshipped God.

Vacation!!

Date: 7/21/08
Time: 11:50 pm
Place: At Home

This is the time of year where families decide on the perfect place to go and have the best vacation ever. I wish I had the resources and the time to take one of those vacations. I would go to Jamaica, Aruba, Barbados, or some exotic place in the carribean. Where I can spend two amazing stress free weeks with my children. Where there is no homework, or work.

Think about it two weeks of someone else doing everything for you. Food, drinks, laundry. Everything worrying only about having fun. Ohh that would be the life. I am envious of all those families that are having fun out there in the perfect place right now. Gosh I need a vacation.

Why do students wait to the last minute?

Date: 7/20/08
Time: 11:50 pm
Place: Home

I have been in school all my life almost, with the exeption of years 1 to 4. After the age of 5 till now I have constantly been in an educational enviornment. The logical thing would be that the students such as myself will be used to getting loads of homeworks to do by a certain date. What amazes me is that you can give a student a month, 2 weeks, or 2 days to complete an assignment but they( with a few exeptions of course) will wait till the last minute to start on it. It makes no sense to kill yourself to let all that work accumulate and work on it all at once, so why is it that we are guilty of waiting until the last minute? I do not understand this, because every week I plan everything out so that I can work on it but end up staying up late sunday night trying to finish all my assignments for that week.

Hurricane Harbor six flags!

Date: 7/19/08
Time: 11pm
Place: Home

It is common to knowledge that in this day and age there are many mentally ill persons. What surprises me is that there are cojerent people who act as mentally illin order to excuse their unacceptable behavior. Perfect example is that today my husband and I went to six flags hurricane harbor water park as a family trip to share a great day with our kids. Well as we get to the park my husband is telling me something about some pictures and this lunatic starts threating my husband and inviting him to fight. My husband avoided a comfrontation due to the presence of our small children. The guy after we tought the problem was over, comes out of nowhere and tries to punch my hudband but he could not. His family had to carry him away because they told us that he always does this scenes to ignore him and apologizing. The point is that if you know that person always tries to look for problems do not take them to such a big place where many many people are trying to have fun.

Work!

Time: 6 pm
Place: Home

Today was a day that I enjoyed and for that same reason it went by so quickly. I woke up around 11 am which is so weird. I slept so much that my entire body hurt. Well it was just nice to be off. Then I went to the supermarket for grocery shopping and of course my kids wanted everything in there! It so funny how they think that their parents are rich because they see something and right away they are like mom can you buy me this and one second later they are like can you by me this. On another note I am so excited that my best friends are coming over tonight for dinner. It has been a while since I have hosted dinner for them. Time is so enjoyable when you are with your circle of friends. So I went all out and we are having angel hair pasta with shrimps and tossed salad, garlic toast, roasted ribs, and red velvet cake for dessert. Don’t know what to serve for drinks yet but I’m sure I will come up with something.

My Stressfulday

Date: 7/18/08
Time: 7pm
Place: At my mother inlaw's house via blackberry


I am having the worst time ever in trying to write a paper on psychotropic medications. My problem is not that I don't find enough information on the topic but thatmy professor wants the paper to have no questions, no opinions and they can not be written in either the first or the second person. He also wants the citations written with so much detail that I'm afraid to do everything wrong. It was horrible writting the introduction which where only two pages. It took me seriously like five days to write the first word. The reason it took so long is because I usually start my papers with a question of some sort. It is just so stressful that I already want this session to end and I want to give in a good paper. So do you have any advice for me?

2008-God's Final Witness end of Ch4-beginning of 5

Date: 7/16/08
Time: 5:15 pm
Place: At Work
Wow I love this book so far because is like you don’t know what to believe. The stuff he says in his book is so specific and he has many arguments to back him up that is like ok either he is a lunatic or he really is the spokesman for god and his end time prophet.
Chapter 4 continues to speak about the seven trumpets of the six seal and how this is the transitional phase to the opening of the seventh seal. When the seventh seal is opened only 3 and ½ years will remain until the end of time. This time we are living in he says that is only going to get worse and worse many deaths of animals and famous people. Some of these deaths will be among politicians and athletes, just famous well know people.
In chapter 5 he begins to explain in more depth how the Unites States and its allies along with Canada are going to be destroyed and how the Catholic Church gets its strength from Satan. This is totally wicked stuff to read.

2008-God's Final Witness Ch. 3-4

Date: 7/15/08
Time: 11:45 am
Place: At Work

Chapter three of this book is where the author explains as he titled the chapter that Time has run out for man. Meaning, that according to him and what he was sent to tell us by god. God gave man 6,000 years of self rule. God will put and end to man’s government, man’s religion, and man’s own inflicted misery. During this time man have done an unworthy job in ruling thyself because man are vicious, envious, hungry for money and deceitful among many others mentioned in the book. He addresses man true history which is that through time man has not acknowledged his own beginning, choosing to ignore it.

He goes into a bit of detail in regards to the seals of revelation. The author talks about the book of revelations by the apostle John in the 90 A.D. The first seal was opened on December 17, 1994. This revelation was revealed to the church only not to the entire world. The opening of this first seal was the beginning of falling away from the truth of God.
The first three seals were what allowed the self destruction of one third of God’s Church.
The Fourth seal was a prophetic revelation of what could occur to the remaining third of the church that was scattered.

He doesn’t speak of the fifth seal or either I missed it.
The six seal is a bit more complicated than the previous one because not only is it a transitional period to the end of time, but also holds within it seven Thunders. The first thunder was the terrorist attack of 9/11/2001 also known as “The terror of war”. The second thunder is the increasing destruction generated by earthquakes. The third thunder is the growing destructiveness from weather. i.e. Katrina in New Orleans. The Fourth Thunder is the global economic upheaval that we are currently living.

This is as far as I got so I will keep you posted.

2008-God's Final Witness Ch.2

Date: 7/14/08
Time: 1:50pm
Place: At work
After reading the second chapter of this book, my mouth has fallen open. I have to admit that this man has great courage to include in his book all of this contradictions from different religions. I realize that he is trying to make a point in for the readers to understand the meaning of truth; which he addresses that in order for one thing to be true only that one thing can be true and not all similar things are true because only one can be true. This is what he is trying to do in the comparison of religions where he says that only one religion is the true one and that he will not say which one because we have to make that decision on our own. I think that if he dared to touch the subject of religion the least he could do is state which is his religion so that the readers can compare their belief with his and in true decide whether we have been lie to all our life as he says most of us have been.
Many points that he brings up really make you sit down and think about what your beliefs are and what he is saying. He has giving me enough curiosity to keep reading to the end and to perform my own research so that I can see whether he is right or wrong or just crazy. In either case he is a very good writer because he catches your undivided attention when you are reading his book.

I’ll keep you posted on ch.3 next time.

Reading the book "2008-God's Final Witness"

Date: 7/13/08
Time: 6:20 pm
Place: At Home

OMG he (the author of the book) is according to a direct revelation from God, one of the two witnesses. The other witness will be revealed to the world during the time of the great tribulation-within the final three and one-half years of man’s era. This is so crazy to read. Anyways he also says that he is an end-time prophet, a prophet of the God of Abraham. He says in this book that the first religions that will be dealt with are Judaism, Christianity, and Islam and that the rest of the world will be dealt with differently. He sounds so sure of everything that he is saying that he makes you wonder. This book is insane and I have only read the first 50 pages.
According to the prophecy of the end of time, one-third of the United States will be destroyed after the seventh seal is opened. So far six seals have been broken.
Another bizarre thing mentioned is that the two prophets/witnesses of God will complete the work that God assigned them and then they are going to be killed by the devil. Their bodies will not be buried and they should be left to be seen by everyone via television. The bodies will remain in the streets of Jerusalem where these shall take effect and after three days the bodies will be resurrected by God. When this happens also 144,000 a massive resurrection will take place and this 144,000 will rise to meet Christ. This is the day that the return of Jesus Christ is visible to the whole world. The Seven plagues will be poured out upon earth this same day.
He also mentions that religion is the main reason for hatred and disagreement between men in this world because only one religion can be right one and this is why there is so much hate and confusion on earth. He says that religion is the greatest cause of suffering and evil in this world.

I’ll continue to read and keep u posted.

My Daughter's School Trip to Riverbank State Park

Date: 7/12/08
Time: 7pm
Place: Home

I had the best time ever yesterday when I accompanied my daughter Katelyn on a school trip to Riverbank State Park. Since my life is a little hectic and time consuming, it had been a while since I volunteered in my daughter’s school for anything. It was so rewarding to see her smile because mommy was coming with her to the trip. It was so fun to spend the entire day at the park with your kids watching them run, get wet in the sprinklers, and interacting with other children. All those kids from her class are so adorable. I just love the innocence and the amount of fun that they have with so little. It was nice to share and speak to other parents and to hear the positive comments that they have to say about your kids. It was just so much fun. Everyone brought in a dish and the different cultures where just there at the picnic table and everything was just so yummy!!! I just was so excited and still am that I hope to go to more trips over the next few weeks.

Reading the book 2008-GOD'S FINAL WITNESS

Date: 7/10/08
Time: 12:42 pm
Place: At Work

I began reading 2008-God’s Final Witness this morning and amazingly enough even though at first I was like oh my god I have to read all of this. The book is quite interesting and it captures your attention. So far I am beginning to read about how we are at the beginning stages of the end of the world. How other religions have predicted natural disasters such as that as Katrina in New Orleans. The thing is not that we have not had natural disasters but this was predicted to happen in the manner and magnitude that they have happened. Another point that grabs my attention was the author’s comparison of the end of the labor pains of childbirth. The authors compares that the end of the world is very similar to the pain of childbirth because at first it starts out as a pain that you can kind of control and tolerate but as time goes by the only thing that will happen is that the pain is going to intensify and worsen as time goes on. Also he says in his book that the only way to know whether what he says in his book is true only time will determine its validity. Can’t wait to continue reading!

End of the world

Date: July 9, 2008
Time: 7 pm
Place: DeVry Lab

Whenever I see these words "END OF THE WORLD" the first thing that comes in to my mind is that the world was supposed to end in the year 2000. People around me were really scared that the world would end at this time. It was all over the news, and everyone you knew would tell you about it.
I remember growing up with my grandmother, who is very religious, and was always telling us that we should do the right things and make the right choices because the end of the world was near. That according to the bible the things happening around the world where signs that the end of the world was near because it said in the bible those exact things that were taking place around the globe. I do believe in god and respect everyone’s religious believes, but honestly I am not a 100 % devoted catholic and I believe that there would be and end of the world eventually but not because the bible or for that matter the man who wrote the bible said so. I think simply that everything that begins must have an end just like anything that lives. It is born, grows or develops, then dies/finishes. I apply the same criteria for the world. It had a beginning and I believe it will have an end. The end may come due to our own actions and mistreatment towards Mother Nature and therefore bringing to an end the world. Not necessarily because there is a date scheduled for it to happen.
