I just got back from a Life fest and there was this terrible band that was the opener and then there was this amazing worship band. It was amazing. I mean it was really really cool This guy that lead the worship was so enthusiastic and he had such a nice vioce and he played the guitar so well and he just did a really good job leading worship. It's one of those things where you come away from it totally pumped and ready to serve God. It was phemonenal! I wish you could have been there. You would have loved it! I am just so fueled right now. It was quality worship. Today was definately an autumn day and I love it. I just love it! I am praying for you and I like you so much and wish you were here with me. Actually, I wish that I was there with you but it'd be nice for you to meet all my friends and family too. Anyway, sweet dreams, Guapisimo.

WHAT? I would never be embarassed by you even if you forget things. Really, it's not a big deal. No one knows about my birthday really, just some really close friends and my family. I don't like to make a big deal about it and it drives me crazy when people publish their birthdays like a billboard or something. I don't know why- that's one of my pet peeves. Please don't feel bad. That's why I didn't say anything because I knew that you would feel bad. And it's no biggie. What a day I've had. It's been crazy. I didn't incredible poorly today in school. My GPA probably plumitted. Today must have been my stupid day. But socially, it was good and work was kind of slow so that was nice. Hey, I won this ring at this game called the Smokin' Token. It was so funny because this game was totally chance and all my friend just lost thier quarters but I won this cool cheap pink ring that says HONGKONG on the inside so we were joking about how it was maybe an expensive ring tand that my name was Hong Kong. It was so funny-another one of my silly moments.
Yes- discretion it what I pray for and work on probably the most. You know the verse in Proverbs that says a woman with out discretion is like a pig with a ring in her snout? Sometimes I feel like that. I make such ridiculous descisions sometimes. Sometimes I worry that I'm too focused. I know we've talked about this before but I think that sometimes on don't focus on the here and now, which is important. That is something that I've been working on all year long. Granted, there are still lots of times when I look up at the night sky and think about where I'll be in ten years or twenty. Thank you in advance for being patient with me. I'm not always easy.
I don't know anything about Molly. Can you tell me a little bit about her? I think that it would be a little weird for me to call her but if you think that it's a good idea, I would be brave for you. I have so many questions- where does she live? What does she do? How old is she? But either way, I will check out that site. Thank you for wishing me such things and ditto. I wish I could control my dreams. If so, we would have a very romantic date tonight. I hope that you ahve a good weekend too. It will jsut give me something to look forward to on Tues especially
Yours- Hongkong :-)

Oh no!
Your birthday was last month? I'm so disappointed in myself, I mean how could I forget your birthday of all dates, even though sometimes my memory fails to recall some issues? I'm so amazed you have been so patient with me about it, you're so good to me, you should have been mad at me!You know the biggest mistake for me to do was to trust that which I can't trust in me and thats my memory-remember the nine ten thing you told me?I figured that'd be easy to remember, too bad for me coz I forgot that the month comes first.I'm so sorry about that because this is not a small issue to me, I mean I can imagine how it was like you know?It's your birthday and there's nothing from me and I can imagine someone asking ,'so what did your boyfriend send you for your birthday?'That must have been really embarassing and I'm so so so sorry okay?I know that I can't make up for that perfectly but I'll try and very soon, promise.
Well thanks for the complement but I didn't make the guitar myself,it was home made but someone else did it.Sorry for he pain in the fingers but no pain no gain, when it hurts more, play even the more and that way you develop perseverence.I'm glad you still have the orphanage vision and that shows that you're focussed, I keep praying about that. I would love to be with you to the end of your dreams, I want to be there for you for the rest of my life, thats my prayer, wish, and desire.I'm ready to wait I know it may take long, but I have a big picture, I like to see ahead.
So you wanna be a woman of discretion mmh! Discretion is a very deep word. That has always been the desire of my l;ife. It is a revelant quality of someone who lives in total obedience to the voice of the Holy spirit and as you say one who knows whats up with everything not with human understanding but as a believer, with the help of divine inspiration of the Holy spirit.
I have an idea and its already worked out, but I dont know if you'll like it.I thought it would be a good idea to link you up with Molly coz you have some thing in common.Ive been with her for a while and I think that she's a good person I just talked to Romanus and molly on line and they are okay with the whole idea. Her cellphone number is 407-748-3329 and her house land line is 407-277-4156, what do you think?In fact about a fair deal of international calling cards Romanus told me that Molly found fair deals at www.getafrica.com could you try that?
mmh! I don't know about you, but there's something about friday that makes the evening romantic, so why don't I wish you a romantic night with me in your dreams?I'll be thinking and praying alot for you tonight.Sweet dreams and have a lovely weekend.

Hey I'm not sure about tomorrow but it seems like I may have to spent the weekend in camp cause we're having a fund raising on sunday to cater for Danson's medical bills, please pray about that too. That may mean that I may get to check mail next on tuesday, thats like forever but I have no choice.I like you alot, and take care.

I'm glad things went ok. We've really been praying for you guys. It's always good to think aout the importance of your life. It's usually a good kick for me. My guitar has made week extra nice. My finger really hurt though, You'd be proud of my callouses. You MADE your own guitar? That's incredible. You never cease to amaze me. Guess what I did today? I actually took blood pressue today and it worked! It even worked on a human being not just the fake blood pressure arm that we have. I was so excited that I actually figured it out. I suppose that I had never been patient enough before. And work today went really well. Some days are just good days and I can't wait to build my own orphange. Today was such a day. Of course I'm praying for you and your dad and Allen and that whole situation. I pray for that all the time. I can't believe that you remembered my birthday, especially for having such a bad memeroy for things like that!! That makes me really happy. Well, you almost remembered my birthday. Actually it was last month and it was on the 10th, but you were close. And thank you so very much! I am absolutely thrilled! What do I want to be as a 16yr old? I want to become a woman of discretion. I really want to know what's up, if you know what I mean. I want to be a trustable , humble friend. Humility-that's the other goal. And I'm working on memorizing more passages. I haven't been very faithful at that so I've been working on part of Romans.
NO kidding, anytime I see a couple walking down the hallway, I think of you and I think that I would LOVE to be walking down the hallways with you. Well, I hope that you get some quality sleep and are rested and refreshed and ready to face the rest of today.

B-mo is just my first initial and MO. It has no sigificant meaning but that my sister called me it once and I thought that it was thuggish.

wow!
Believe me I am very tired right now but I have dropped here in town just to write you something, the rest of the guys have driven straight to the camp so I'll have to catch a matatu on my way but that a problem at all.WE just came from Nairobi for the burial and this is the week I have done two trips to Nairobi in one week.I was so worried about you while I was there, cause we left very early on tuesday morning that I didn't have time to write but I'm glad you figured what was happening these sides.I'm so touched that you have been writing all this time I've been away and thanks for that.Well Dansons chapter is gone and during the funeral it was a challenge to know that we are on earth for a purpose.It got me thinking exactly what the lord wants me to do in my life time and I also evaluated how well I've been accomplishing Gods purposes for creating me and to see if there are areas that need to be improved on.Well quite alot seems to be going on those sides and I'm glad your holding up and sobber.I must blieve that your guitar looks much much better than the guitar I staryed learning with when I was 11, coz it was home made! but I owe most of what I can play on the guitar today to that small thing.I kept it as a 'suv' cause its 'unusable' now.I understand about the calling you try your best but don't be under any pressure.I'm waiting for the day when one of us will have adream that ends well you know?Any way it will end well when we meet again face to face. keep praying about my plans.my dad was also on Nairobi this last weekend for a retreat together with my mom but he was also to confirm when Allan will be coming, so I'm yet to see him about it.Hey! I remembered that your birthday is coming soon on 9th right? So what do you desire to be like in your 16th year?What goals do you want to achieve while 16? Happy birthday in advance.Okay thug girl I can see your getting it we'll checkya latta babe I really should be going now, its getting dark.Good night have the sweetest of all dreams tonight.Hey I really really miss you and I waqs really missing you while in Nairobi. Some times I see ma buddies with their girl friends and that makes me really miss you anyway God makes everything beautiful in his time huh?BUt I like you too much and you're precious to me.Whats that 'B-mo' name?I'll find out about Nicole and maybe buy her cds if they are available.Miss ya

Well, I guess Danson's funeral was today. I hope that everything was ok. My really really musically inclined friend Andrew came over with his gilrfriend to look at my guitar this evening after church and he said that it sounded really good- alot better than he thought it would. It made me really happy to know that I have a guitar that not only looks good but also sounds really nice. He said it sounds nicer than most cheap guitars he had listen to. I'm glad that my paint job didn't destroy it too much. I'm teaching myself how to pick and I'm not very good at it but I'm probably doing something wrong, like the fingering is probably off or something. We had our first real drama practice today where we actually practiced and now that I know what my kids are capable of, I think that I'm going to have a lot of work on my hands. But a good way to grow I suppose. This little guy's name is Jake and I just don't know how to make him sound angry. He's so little and has such a high vioce and can't really project with out screaming. I'm hoping to be able to call you again but it kind of depends on a couple of things going on around here so we'll see, ok? That would make me really happy. I wish that I could call you more often so I've been looking into international phone cards for a good deal. That would be so nice. Let me know how things have been going and I'm always always praying for you.

I did have a dream about you last night! I was begining to think that I wan't going to have any more dreams about you because my body would start thinking that you were a normal thought process because I think about you all the time. You were at my house and we spent a little bit of time together but then all of my friends and people from my church kept taking you away from me because they thought that you were so cool. Then I went to my room to change my clothes because we were going out to eat at a fancy resturaunt and I came back down so we could leave and you had gone to church to talk to someone. I was so disapointed in my dream, but, I have to admit, it was really nice to see you again. Too bad I never have dreams of you two mights in a row or I would be much more excited to get to bed. It's bizarre how I have dreams about you. I never have dreams about anyone like I do you, not even my family. I really really like you and I hope that you had fun on your day off. Tell everyone I said hi.
Yours- B-mo ( would you claim someone who's name was "B-mo"? :-)

I'm really glad that you had such a good time and impacted people's lives. I'm proud of you. And yes, my guitar made me very very happy. I took some pictures of it and will be sending you some shortly. Call-backs is just tryouts again after a significant deal of elimination so I checked today to see if I made a part and I didn't. I was kind of disappointed but I trust that working must be what God deams best for my life right now. Today has been such a long day. It just wouldn't end but I enjoyed it because it was really windy and cool. I cannot even tell you how much I love that kind of weather. Maybe I've asked you this before and forgotten, but do you know of Nicole Nordeman? I think that she is so cool and that she is an amazing singer and pianist. I strive to be like her. She is so creative. She wrote this song about us, as humans, being willing to be fools for Christ. It's called "Fool for You" and it is such a good song. Part of it says something like even thought there is not much eveidence and I am silenced in the face of argumentative debate but Christ made himself a fool for us so we are willing. I'm trying to learn it on the piano and it's in my head because I was just practicing. I like her. Well, I am a tired little girl who had lots of homework so I need to chug. Lata' baby (there's my thug again. I was workin on that today.)
