" 2014 ... Unleash More"

This 2013 I had experienced a lot of trials in my life. A lot of life lesson and throughout the journey God was with me guiding me all the way to the right path where He wants us to be. God blessed me financially, spiritually, emotionally and physically. I don't even remember me having a high body temperature thanks to God which is my strength.

This 2014 it's time to unleash more. Yes, God unleashed me this 2013. But there is more to come. I am still alive so therefore there are mo things to come. More trials and blessings to come. This school year 2013-2014 as of January 15 I have achieved 2 star C. I was so blessed that I heard that this 3rd quarter I qualified for the star b. God also gave me knowledge and wisdom to memorize the pwa almost at the 2nd week of the school year.

This time it matters who you choose who will push you. Where will you let him/her push you? To the right path or to the wrong path? It's better to suffer now then enjoy later than enjoy now then suffer later right? We should always keep our path on the right one. Be aware on what you do or say. Everything that you say or do counts. God watches us 24/7. He keeps on telling us what to do. He never got mad when we do bad things. In fact He gets sad. But He never gave up because He loves us.

This 2014 I will do my best in everything I do. Yes I can't get anything I want but still I know that I praised God in the things I do or say. I will use the lessons of 2013. The lessons from the past was given by God so that we could be stronger. Yes we feel bad when we fail sometimes. But always remember God has a divine purpose for everything that happens in this world.

    Although SpongeBob is an iconic popular show, not every viewer would link “Squeaky Boots” to Poe’s short story, and understand that this well-crafted episode demonstrates optional intertextuality. Over and over, the author pulls a number of references to acknowledge the show’s association with Poe’s writing. However, the context in “Tell- Tale Heart” is not necessary to enjoy the episode’s plot. For those who catch the reference, the meaning of the whole episode only slightly changes.
