Sure I have to work during the first three days during the holy week but luckily for me, my day-off was on Maundy Thursday and Good Friday. My sister and I went to Baguio Cathedral not becuase we want to see the President of the Republic of the Philippines but to go to confession. It is the only church that caters to confession at night. Our parish church does not have confessions on Holy Thursdays.
My sister went there and there was no priest. So we decided to eat dinner at a fast food and stroll a little. When we got back to the church we saw a long line in the confessional booth. The bad thing is, there was only one priest! Anyway, to kill time, my sister and I exchanged stories about which one of us has a morbid sense of humor and about Religion. I'm sure the man behind us was annoyed for us being so noisy in church but was too polite to say so or he just ignored us.
I was able to confess but not my sister and she was so annoyed.
Good Friday was ok. I nearly fell asleep during the seven last words and I have to scracth myself to be awake. But before that we had stations of the cross my mind was thinking of what I have become and where I should be going and what goals to reach. For the past years I never made a definite goal or plans in my life because I never realize them. I planned to be a doctor but ended up in tech support. I planned to be a coach, I wasn't promoted.
But now I guess it's time to start setting goals huh? No wonder I never get anywhere.
Goals in life:
1. Get a job- done that
2. Get promoted- almost there but not quite
3. Get laid- not yet there, but wish was there
4. Get married and have kids- not yet found a man foolish enough to marry me
5. Die- obviously not yet since I'm still alive
Ok, ok, don't take those seriously since I was being sarcastic (again) about my plans in life. I'm still formulating my plans and goals in life along the way.
