So this was the time when my friend Julie Ann wanted to have her photoshoot cause her hair is way too long and she wants to have a souvenir before she chops it off. Mitzi, a great friend of mine, is her make up artist! While Julie Ann was still changing for a different set of clothing, Mitzi got a chance to show us that she can model, too. ;)

Great guy who happens to be my brother speaks about worshipping a God who is Omnipresent at Catalyst Church GTA. Good job, Phil!

Things I learned:

- Wherever you go, God is there, and is there with you. (Psalm 139:7-10) We can’t hide ourselves from God - in our joy, past sins or even suffering. He knows everything we are and what we’ve been through.

- God is everywhere not everything. Pantheism believes God is everything. God is not everything. God is not a chair that I’m sitting on, God is not a desk, or a laptop that I’m using right now. God is everywhere, not everything.

THREE C’s

1. When I’m feeling lonely, God is my comforter.

- Even if you are in the crowd, you would still feel alone.

- You may able to talk to God anytime you want.

The Lord is near to all who call on Him, to all who call on Him in truth. (Psalm 145:18)

- Reality is, people disappoint us. Even if we do our best. Even if we try to please people. On the other hand, we, too, disappoint people. It’s just a cycle of unfulfillment. But who better to look up to than a God who is compassionate. And He will be with you all the time.

I got a wedding gig that wasn’t supposed to be mine. Heehee. I was just a guest. Guest acting as a photographer/ videographer. I was informed by the couple that they weren’t satisfied on the videos that they have cause it’s all wobbly and out of sync. So I told them that I have some takes from their wedding. So there, they liked it and I got myself a 500GB external hard drive from the Morales’. Thank you, Kuya Nico and Ate Carren! All the best to your future together!

Amazing. I was just frolicking on my bike going back and forth to Victoria Park Avenue to York Mills Road, then rested my tush on a little park of Woodbine street, where I saw this beauty. It’s very tiny. A normal person walking down the street might not actually notice it that much. I believe these are raindrops caught in a spiderweb. They’re so light that even spiderwebs don’t break. Wala lang. I really think it’s amazing to see this on sight.

Just playing with the photos I took of Rachelle trying to go up the big rocks after going downhill to get close to the water. I placed all 3 photos and took out the lines dividing them to blend it. After that, I changed the tone of the setting to dark sepia. AAAAND. I don’t know why I decided to do that. Lol. Anywho, here’s she herself and her. :))

Thumbs up for this girl. If I wanted her to jump, she jumps. If I wanted her to steady her pose, no matter how long, she’ll do it. I don’t want to enslave her but she’s very eager on trying to get the perfect shots during shoot. I feel so bad, but then I can tell she’s enjoying it! ;-)

Model: Ivan Dago as Judas Iscariot

Things I learned during the Easter sunday service:

- Jesus knew Judas will betray him (Matthew 26:21)

- Judas repented after Jesus died. He betrayed an innocent blood and felt really guilty about it. (Matthew 27:4)

- He then committed suicide by hanging himself.

In my early years, we were taught that anyone committing murder does not have a place in heaven (1 John 3:15). So did Judas Iscariot went to hell?

As I was searching for answers, I was convinced that Judas Iscariot was an exception. Besides of what the Scripture says about committing murder, it has also been pointed out that Judas was only fulfilling a prophesy, a prophesy of that Jesus will die in a cross for our sins and ascend in heaven. Judas was used as a gateway for Jesus to fulfill God’s purpose for his people, and therefore is perhaps not deserving of hell.

Bestfriends since elementary. I met with Janine for the first time after a very long time! It’s been like what… 5 years? Probably more. That’s cause she moved to another middle school so far that I can’t afford to get there without finishing off my baon [allowance] for the week. More devastating news was that I have moved out of the country which means it was much harder to meet up than it already is. We still keep in touch but not as much during our college years. Now that I travelled back for a vacation, I was so excited to meet with her again and spend some quality time together. Nothing has changed between us. Except maybe for her fedora. But she’s still the girl I love!!

It’s AJ’s sweet little 1st birthday! He just woke up when I took this shot. Nevertheless, he’s still an adorable little Filipino-Italian baby. Thanks for having me on your party! May you grow up to be a good boy who listens to his parents, responsible and loving :)
