A Loved Birthday

I wanna give a big THANK YOU to all you wonderful people who played a part in giving Joanie lots of love through the gifts, e-mails, letters, prophecies, e-cards, offlines, and phone calls. You're considered a very appreciated pal in my book!! I just hope I can repay the favor somehow... somewhere! (hee) It made me feel super special and thought of, really!! I love you so much!

A big SANK YUU goes to Lily and Akari. Aww, for those awesome belts....ack! I cannot get over how many you gave me. I was so happy for them, and for the clothes (striped shirt and tube top is the da favorite), the snacks and the love. I seriously owe you one. ;) Thanks so much!!!

Aw, I just HAVE to post this cute birthday note...I just couldn't resist!!! hahaha.

(Ang, guess who...)
happy birthday joan! (yes i know I'm late). even though you must have changed and i may know you no longer, i still will probably love you once i see you. JK i love you! take care. don't bother to write back. just come back. see ya!

Look at that Katie girl...tsk! Sucha sweet heart.

P.S. I just got this new hair cut...and color.

Felicidad!

Whoa whoa!!!...hey... whats up?...how you doin??

(nice intro no?)

-I'm happy because the offensive is just like...a few weeks away and the Lord's giving me wonderfully wonderful things that I'm suposto do before it kicks off. On top of that, He's giving me a humungus amount of happiness. The type of happiness that blinds you from everything bad in a situation and opens ur eyes to all the bestest things about a situation. (u dig?...I hope so)

-I'm happy cuz I have a "brazomar beach" pic as my desktop with 'ocean avenue' playing in my ears. Something about this little moment makes me think about you....like big time! I wonder why? *giggle* Oh crap, I'm getting the "missin u" feelin' in my tummy, NOT GOOD! Need some starbucks coffee....PRONTO!

-I'm happy cuz just thinking about this really cool bargain that I did with Ang, (buy a pair of boots for 4 dollars, get 15 bucks and some clothes in exchange...SCORE!) is what you talk about BUSINESS!!!

-I'm happy cuz I'm gonna have another neice. (please name her after me for gods sake!!!!)

-I'm happy cuz my moms coming back with lots of surprises and goodies. YATTA BEBE!!! Ooh, and our just bought-but-mama-had-to-take-to-japan camera is gonna be back in my precious hands again...ahhh!!!

-I'm happy cuz my stuff is all pretty much organized, my bed is made with it's regular pile of clothes at the end of it (completely normal for a "Joan Bed") and lookin' beautiful as ever, and uhh...kitchen is clean! (yesh!)

-I'm happy cuz my birthday is something I'm just super mucho lookin' forward to. no, it's not the presents, not the cake and ice-cream it's not having our whole home back together again (althought that is nice), it's the feeling of knowing that a year went by with so much accomplished. And it's just a nice feeling...nothin' much. :)

-I'm happy cuz daaang...coffee is goooood!!!

-I'm happy cuz I'm gonna be praying awhole lot more specifics for alot of you during this month. I hope you don't mind, but it's gotta be done or else you'll be behind...and I dont want that to happen. No sireee!!! And you! You're just gonna make it outta that steaming coals lookin' like a peice of shinny stuff. (trust me on this, so keep fighting...hokay?)

-I'm happy cuz this is the end of sharing my happiness with you, please be sure to pass it on with alittle bit of love sprinkled on it to make it extreeeeemly nice to the hearers. Thank you!

Ooh and, dont wanna burst any bubbles or anything (and I doubt it will because there's an obvious reason to it..) Michelle, I gotta excom you from my blog...its come to that. I'll be givin you thirty days notice in three seconds. 1,2,3...you're getting thirty days notice. I love you tho, and you have a secret blog that I can be checkin up on everynow and then so I think we're both super cool with my decision, right? right!!! SANK YU JESUS!!!

ADIOS BAYBAY!!
(and why is it that I have to tell you to comment in order for you to comment? I get 18 in one post, the next is zero (just comment for the 'holy hotness'...comon!! For da homies...?)...no telling what this one's gonna get...siiigh)

Holy Hotness!!!

So there's these two guys that don't know mucho tacos on blogging, but gee...gotta admire them for stepping out by faith and giving it a try.

Aheh, okay...so! I worked for them for free and got their whole blog together with the most simplest info ever to be given to joan in the whole world..."I want the template to be like, eye candy color and with one of those chat box things...those are cool" ..... (*_*) <== if you dont know what this, it's suposto be a serious face.) But I didn't get close to something like that so I just got something really groovy...and it was likened!

Now that we've heard Joanie make herself sound all big and mighty, better get a move on with who the bloggers are before the fall comes.

So here's Sam Finch..

Pretty cool huh? It's kinda neat how his food dosen't go to his tummy and that it just goes straight to his cheeks. (*dude voice* now that's freakin' A! (A=Awesome) And those eyebrows...what can you say, they're like another human being with a heart and soul. Anyways, he's pretty cool on the inside too....and if you didn't hear me, I said PRETTY COOL!!!! But I doubt he'll ever write a long post to let out his coolness, he'll just post funny photos, tsk...what a shame.

Then there's Phil Edson...

I dunno about his looks...kinda creeps me out sometimes when he grins at me like I'm the hottest person ever. (sicko) But he does take great pride in how God created him, dunno what you'd call it, but he's happy with his looks, which is a good sample for people who have doubts about their looks. (GBH!) Ahem, so he's also this french guy who has a hard time trying to make a password for a random account. (french all the way) But aside from his weakness (don't worry about it pal, when you are weak...He is strong) he's another one of those cool guys.... who won't show his coolness through a blog post.

Well I personally dont know why they made a blog if they're not gonna show their coolness with it.....beats me! But umm...enjoy the enjoyable photos that's there.
^)_(^ <--that's an old persons face if you didn't notice)

Questions Shtuff.

I dunno about you. You should have told me from the start about how you feel about these really awesome questionares. Cuz you see, I have this sort of ability to change peoples minds and I could have changed yours if you'd only tell me from the start! (kee heee)
Blogs can also be something pretty useful for the humility side of life, even if it seems like you might be posting something JUUUST about yourself and you think ppl will label u in some corny way because of what u wrote, if it has the Lord in it and is uplifting....it's cool!

About life in general:

-Chocolate or coffee(you're addicted to caffeine)? coffee. I honestly don't like chocolate...sticks to my teeth like sick stuff. If you give me chocolate..I'll probably save it as alittle reminder of how sweet you were for getting me something, and never eat it.
-Diamond or pearl? Diamonds. (My sister brain washed me)
-Favorite school subject(do you have any learning disabilities)? history, good stuff...good stuff. (learning disabilities...what are those??)
-Favorite sound ever(like you know moaning, groaning..)? No no, moanings and groanings are a favorite for the bed time ... stories!! But on an everyday favorite basis--> waves crashing.....ahh! make looove to meee!!
-Favorite finger?(this meaning on you) My Pinky.
-Favorite place?(country, continent) Tateyama, Japan.
-Meat or fish? Fish, not my fault.
-Sushi or tacos?(never mind don't answer) hahha, SUSHI SUSHI SUSHI!
-Snapshots or posed pitoresque(are you vain)? posed, Im sure most girls like posed pictures. And I only try to be vain to bug people. *grin*
-Affection or sex(are you a nympho)? ...sex. What the heck is nympho???
-Motorcycle or car(are you stupid or safe)? Car. I'm tuper mucho safe.
-Walk or bycicle ride(romantic or loner)? Walk, cuz they can be a good work out. Romantic, gosh! I only say that because "loner" sounds dorky and I dont wanna be dorky. (hahaha, wtv)

Of people and boys

-Tall or short? Tall.
-Quiet or crazy? Quiet...
-Fun or sweet?(not allowed to answer both, cheater!) Fun. Being ONLY sweet can get boring.
-Outgoing or studious? outgoing.
-Computer wiz or learning rockstar? umm... none. (snicker)
-Drummer or lead singer? Lead singer....can always get some random sweet songs sung to you on random occasions. Drummers are too spastic, only by sitting down they're hands are constantly being used as drum sticks. And like, when you're hugging, his hands are doing some drum roll on ur butt like its a snare or something. Caraaazyyy drummas!!!!
-Crazily unpredictable or wonderfully stable? Wonderfully stable.
-Popular or reserved? Reserved...dunno exatcly what that means but I know the word, "popular" is not so cool.

Our sexy family

-You wana serve the lord forever right? Sure thang.
-Why? Because I wanna be a celebrity in heaven.
-Do you think you're a decent sort of woman? I'm a decent GIRL. (I like to tell myself that so I can stay sane....keee)
-Do you think you're a decent sort of disciple? I know I'm not the greatest disciple after going through all that really hardcore stuff this past year (and knowing there's more up ahead), but I do know that I wanna try my best to uphold the standard as a disciple and that's the important part. So my answer would be, I try!
-Do you think you're a decent sort of girlfriend? heck no! LHM!
-Most favorite thing about the new year? I get to have a new start.
-Most favorite ministry to be involved in? Secretary.
-Goals for the new year?
1) Memorize more 2) Be a better witnesser and have a more love for the lost. 3) Obey/know the Charter wholeheartedly (stop giggling) 4) To improve in music more. 5) There's more but i forget.
-Dreams and wishes for the new year? To finish school, speak spanish, go to FDTP, move to another home, feel 100% fulfilled, visit Japan, make lotsa love, turn around and do the boogy.
-Are you looking for a boyfriend?(answer honestly, LOTS of guys read your blog) Not really, but whatever the Lord wants, I'll obey.
-Do you sometimes have doubts about certain letters mama/dad/peter write? Course not. I love them to peices and totally look up to them. I'm one of those simple minded girls that think if they make a mistake in their leadership and ppl get all huffed up about it, I'll still love them whole heartedly cuz we all make mistakes. And even if I do get doubts in the future, maaan...I sure hope I can do all I can to get it out cuz I dont think its very cool.
-Do you love the radicalness of the family? Fo shizzle ma nizzle!! (ahaha)

So there you have it, you strangers out there who are reading my blog, you pretty much know mucho about me...daaang! And I dont know beans about you. Tsk...shame that you don't comment. I really do encourage you to comment on my blog even if I dont know you, it's cool to get random comments from random people....makes me feel happy. Even if it's a simple, "Hey Joan!" Tee hee.

Goes for people I DO know too. (shame on you!)

Some photo I found on this (Ang's) computer.
Was in some "Tolken" folder. Dunno...but I'm all in for it!
What do you think? Bunny, *sad face* for missin u.

Roller Coaster

I'm running out of wayyy far out ideas to post on this blog, and I think it has something to do with the weather...I'm not sure. But anyways, here are some photos that some pals have sent me, and have inspired me to put on my blog because they're simply beautiful. When they send photos to Joan, it means they're going public! (dosen't mean you should stop sending me photos, gosh!)

Look at Anim!! A dress!!! Make up!!

Now ain't this a moment! Phil just can't hide his extremely good looks from the nearest camera, dosen't care whats in Marcus' present, he just wants a camera to capture his wayyy cool smile.


Hee hee, I found this somewhere on the net and I thought it was simply cute!


This Nickolas Fisher takes too much royal-pride in his name...


Mindy, ew ur in hawaii...eww! haha.


 Mar, I hope you know that diggin them graves before hand will only make you get out of business. (for reals) and...si, sabes mucho! *giggles like a hippo*

Well that's all I have to my newly collected collections folder, well I have more but I'm getting a little bit worn out sitting here like a mushroom.
And onto something meaningful: life's been busy with lotsa responsibilities, disapointments, mysteries, Jesus times, tears, understanding, love, buildings, happiness and on and on lifes roller coaster goes. And I'm learning to love it cuz it's all in the process of becoming a pretty flower, or a pretty butterfly, or a pretty weavers tapestry, or a pretty clay vase, or a pretty person *wink*.

So TYJ! And thanks for reading.

Sean the shiz

No Sean, I didnt forget your birthday...you just live a day ahead of me.
(Ah, feels good to proove that you remember someones birthday when they think you've forgotten it...ahh, feels good!)

So, down to business...

Happy Birthday amigo! You're so wonderful to such a simple little girl like Joanie. Always lending a shoulder to lean on when the going gets rough. I can probably write a huge list of thank you's for always being sucha pal to me, but then again...it'll bore you...and then you'd start getting tired of reading it, then you'd go to sleep, and wake up the next day to see that you haven't finish my list yet, so then you'd be like, "heck, forget this...Joanie needs to learn how to cut down on her thanks and thank yous." then I'll be like, "Damn it, that sean guy dosent understand". Then our friendship will end............ not the vision, deshyo? So instead, I'll just say....

Thanks for everything.
Hope you have a great 17th year of lots of loving Jesus times, lots of loving ooki oppaii onna tachi (aheee), and being a great pal to all the wonderful people that are in your life.
Keep going for Jesus and the Family, cuz that's like....the bestest reason outta all them reason to keep going in life. (amen?)
I love you mucho y mas y mas!

Love like the little stars in the ocean, Joanie.

(I sure hope this post mooved you...teehee)
