July 27 Iglesia Ni Cristo Anniversary day +GEMNET too!

Today was a very very long day. Well let's begin shall we?

First things first! I woke up at 8:10AM today and ate some breakfast. Tocino and eggs were on the menu today. I ate some and then took a shower. After taking said shower I got ready and went with my dad and Von's dad to Bank of Hawaii to deposit the offering from the thanksgiving WARship service. All I can say about the total amount is that it's alot! Like crazy a lot! Anyways I don't think I can say how much it is so let's move on. It took like twenty minutes for the tellers to do their job lol! By this time it is 9:20AM! O_O! I'm late!

Luckily we left the bank on time and I only got to work 2 minutes late (9:32am). I then said hello to fellow co-workers Toshi and AG. Pretty cool people, then I got the things I needed for work (clip board, cell phone, bus schedule, and my schedule). I then relaxed for a few minutes and by 9:40am I went out to see if AG was ready to go to GPO. He said we were too early so he decided to drop a spell. He talked about how his family got to the USA and etc. We left at about 9:48AM and headed to GPO. On the ride he talked to me about how a lot of Filipinos travel abroad to get jobs (which I guess is true).

We parted ways then I got ready to do my job. At GPO the first thing I do is go to Burger King to get some "free" water. When I asked for it they ran out of water so I headed to Taco Bell for some water. Little to my knowledge it costs fricken .15$ to get a small water! CRAZY! Oh well, at least it came with free refills and lots of ice. I then went to my area (outside coldstone near that pillar) and set up camp (so to speak).

The whole first half of the day was practically normal. It went by without incident or anything special. Later at about 11ish I got a refill on water. Then I went back to camp. Joe then decided to drop a spell himself. Joe is a very interesting person. He came from Hawaii because of his wife. Very interesting case which I cannot explain for the sake of his wife's family, but I can tell you irl maybe. But yeah, he's been on Guam and likes it. Fills me up on the downlow of what's goin on in Hawaii. Lots have change since I was last there according to him. Anyways, today he stayed for a good bit like from 1-3. Then from like 4:30-6PM.

Today some of the special parts I can point out that stuck out was first, this Japanese model in a fricken bikini was there doing a photoshoot! It was very awesome to watch heheheheheha! Another interesting part of the day was when this one Japanese tourist who I have met twice before today on different days, gave me two pieces of hard candy! That was very cool of her! It seriously made my day extremely better! Another part that wasn't as interesting was when one of the drivers (Art) borrowed $2 from me for coffee or something.

I was supposed to end work at 5:30, but, my reliever (person who takes over) decides to come at 6PM. Lame! I was cool with it since I wanted extra hours anyways. I took one of the buses back to base (office of fukuda). By the time I went back home, I fixed my hymns and went on my way to go to church! Because today was the church's 95th anniversary!

We left our house in a whirlwind! We got there on time and still had a parking space near the front of the church. Today, I forgot my undershirt and wondered if anyone could see under my toga (which would be embarrassing/funny). Today Adam, Matt, and Paul came!!! Yeah!!!! It was awesome! Right after the sermon I found them and they got they're food and we chilled at our car! We caught up on old times and made jokes! At first it was only Adam and Paul but latter Matt showed up to join the SUPER PARTY! LOL! It was cool, they seemed to like the performances! When it was time for the choir members to sing their song, they seemed to like it too! LOL! It was cool! After the performance I got my food (there wasn't much ;__;) and ate When all of the performances and eating finished. Then GEM-NET stuff began!

Today's GEM-NET was the funnest we had ever since Chuuuuuck was here!!! LOL! We got to do an interview with Adam, Matt, and Paul (all in reverse order of interview)!!! It was super cool! It was also cool later cause when we interviewed brother Bill Matt did camera man and Paul got to do audio OP! LOL! It was awesome! At first it was annoying when we started since there was a lot of people going in and out of the room! It was hard to keep it quiet, however, we got the interviews down and made it super effective! I actually want to see the finished product already lol! But yeah, it was super entertaining! Anyways after the shoot which took an hour or two, we all chillaxed outside for a few more hours.

It was very awesome. Matt, Paul, and Adam made some of the funniest jokes I have heard in the longest time! Really cool night tonight! Can't wait for the next Gem-net thing and GEM too!!!
