Torn Between

Now I have two blogs — the other being a Multiply account — and I don’t know what to put where.

Nah, “simulblogging” is stupidity. Since this one looks more formal, would it be apt, then, that I put more so-called formal stuff here, stuff you actually think about and write? And since Multiply is more “pa-fun”, would it be apt, then, that I post “pa-fun” stuff there?

I will decide.

Innard Joy

Many of my friends are going to Sydney for the World Youth Day.

I’m happy for them. The thought of going to another country alone is enough to make one’s guts tumble and shake in excitement. What more if you’re there to meet the Pope. Welcome, nostalgic thoughts! Last year, when I went to Rome for the UNIV Congress, nothing else mattered than attending the Easter Vigil Mass celebrated by no less than the Holy Father himself at St. Peter’s Basilica! Dreams do fall short!

Now it’s my friends’ turn to have that inexplicable “innard joy”. The Pope! They’re meeting the Pope! And with him, they’re gonna meet God, too.

This morning we had our first home-service Spanish class with a guy from Berlitz. Awesomeness. We had to be interviewed by this fellow one by one — en Español! So you can imagine how yerztruly grappled for words and translations when Javier, the instructor, asked him stuff. Yerztruly excelled in answering him, “No comprendo. No comprendo.”

As James would call it, “fun, no?”
