Six Sides of the Block-Side 3

hola! i think i wrote that in everyone's yearbook i signed. so before i begin let me clarify this blog. a lot of people have been asking what this blog is about. like how im cherishing my best friends. but lets get this clear, this isnt about praising how much i love my best friends. its about praising those who have had a huge impact on my life. we dont have to be best friends but theyve done something that has been super impactful on me. so thats why there will be some people who shock the hell out of you. haha. and to my best friends who dont make it, dont worry i have something special to write about all of you. which leads me to the next side of my block. but remember this is a friend blog. not a sponsor or family blog.

Philip Gapusan

WTH right? haha. ok so yes im not very close with this person. but this guy had a huge impact on my life. so i went on this retreat called a YFC retreat. Youth for Christ. i wasnt very into it to be honest with you. it was so much different than lifeteen. SO much...but it turned out that i would actually get a lot out of that retreat.

so my group leader was Philip and this guy named Justin. they were of course in high school and it was wierd to talk to people around your own age. but it was interesting to clash people together who wouldnt normally talk with one another and share their experinces with God. ok so Philip was in my group. and we knew each other. he was in council, used to go to lifeteen, he was filipino. it was all chill you know. and we talked. he actually let me into his life, and i learned a lot of things about him i didnt know. we had some really great talks. he made me actually think of what God was to me. even if this guy was so young and made a lot of mistakes in his life.

so the retreat ended. i was kinda bitter about it. and then i got this letter from Philip. he said that he sees me growing in God and how much potential i had. he even gave a clue as to wanting to be my sponsor. haha. i'll be honest, i wanted Philip to be my sponsor. but, i knew that Philip wasnt ready yet. it was hard for me to see someone i looked up to leave church for awhile. well at least OLPH. and then come back but still not be the same. and even if we dont talk and were not as close, Philip did make a huge impact in my life. he made me see why God was in our lives in the first place. and even if we stray away, we can still have a huge impact in the faith of others. i know Philip is on a new journey now, but i pray that hes gonna be okay, and when he comes back, frick he better say hello. haha.

Six Sides of The Block-Side 2

ok so here's Side 2. so far, we Side 1 belongs to Jamaica Agustin. well side 2 may come as either a surprise to many or it might be super obvious. but here it is...

Jeffry Campanero

now this one came to me as a surprise. i think me and jeff became friends afer i got a myspace. haha. he added me right away...idk why;]. haha. kidding. but i set out to make something called an Advice Blog which soon turned into a bust after all i wrote about was Tadpole. yeah, that sucked. but my first request for advice was from no one other than Jeff. about a girl named Patricia? haha. i think that was the code name right?

well i wrote it. and he wanted more advice. so xcheffeh, toopsycho4ya, and may the AIM conversations began. it started off small. we were getting to know each other. i mean we knew each other. both of us were on council, we were both boys, and yeah. i think that was it. haha. but we soon figured out we had more in common. a lot more actually.

jeff was one of the few people i opened up too. and then after the So You Think You Can Love Retreat, he decided that i was drifting away. he wrote this blog and all of this came at a surprise to me. i mean i never wanted to hurt Jeff at all. and our friendship was never the same ever since. then, at FullFilled i finally learned that he put so much trust in me and after being so busy it seemed like i didn't care. and all i could do was finally see how much i meant to him as a friend in his eyes.

jeff's helped me through soo much that i really can't thank him. that would be like nothing, he deserves more. hes been such a great friend to everyone in his life, even if he gets little in return. nevertheless, he still remains the best friend. so seeing him graduate and leave is gonna be hard because i wont have my safety net anymore when im down. but jeff, when you leave promise me you'll be there when i get to California. haha. and don't be afraid of what the world holds next.

Six Sides of the Block-Side 1

so hello everyone! a lot of people are doing this whole VIP BLOG stuff, so i was inspired. it got me thinking of the book the Five People You Meet In Heaven. I didn't read it, but form the title it seemed like tears kind of book. haha. so i came up with Six Sides of the Block, the 6 people who personally changed my life. and i could only choose from friends so it was hard to narrow down the 6. some of my bestfriends never even made the list. but i chose the first 3 already. but im only going to do one side everyday. for the next 10 days. haha, just in case i get lazy to do one i gave myself 4 extra days. so side one belongs to...

JAMAICA AGUSTIN

Jamaica. where do i start? so i got to know Jamaica my freshmen year. all i knew of her was that she was what, pretty? haha. well not really until she got bangs but whatever. haha. we really didn't get close until sophomore year when we decided that we would do broadcast together. and then the original Rymai began.

of course we aren't Rymai anymore, but we still are Ryan and Jamaica, attached to the mother fricken hip. so we got super close, and this huge snag hit our friendship. she took my Presidency. everyone knew Ryan valued his Presidency. haha. but she got it. and all i could do was sit and secretly be jealous and angry and all these emotions built up. but, we stayed close and we even got closer somehow.

over the summer we went ot SLW where we met the ever infamous Jenah(Jena)(Jenna) idk how to spell her name. but whatever. but then school came around. one day i just couldn't take the fact that she had almost everything i wanted. and it hit me and i broke down in Sensei's room. whoa, that sucked big time. i thought i hated her. but in reality i didn't. we didn't talk for like a week when she finally came up to me and we had a "Hills" moment. since then we've been FRENEMIES.

i remember this one day i gave her my Philia heart. you better still have it. it was talking about a friend that we value in life during the retreat. and out of everyone i gave it to her. it meant a lot. she keeps it in her Bible:]

mark this on May 26, 2009, Jamaica said she would date me if i fit her type. haha. but like i said me and Jamaica are attached to the hip. Side 1, belongs to Jamaica Agustin. she changed my life in more ways than one. she taught me not to take life for granted, and all the gift we had. marked me down for every type of concietedness. and she built her trust in me. and not to mentio she got me addicted to Honey Mustard Sauce. i love my island in the pacific. and were gonna be attached by the hip for another year-___-. nah nah kidding:]

Big Week

so hello:]

ok so this past week has been one of the biggest weeks of my life. it starts a whole new chapter in the Book of Lord Ryan. so first off, i am now officially the Senior Class President and National Honor Society President as of May 22, 2009. Haha, pressure switch has just turned on. Second i got Confirmed as of May 23, 2009. That means no more Monday classes and a little less of Jamaica. Wait a minute, were both teaching Confirmation 2. Darn! haha.

so yeah three things. but its still a big week. i've worked for the past 3 years to get to the Presidency and 2 years to reach Confirmation. this big week actually is leading up to the big year. i guess its time for Ryan...Lord Ryan to fly. haha.

taking over the world one block at a time. -Ryan:]

Packed?

so today we passed the flags...and im officially a SENIOR!!!!! but im starting to figure out im doing WAY TOO MUCH for Senior Year. Ok, so here's the list of responsibilities;
1.Senior Class President:]
2.Newswriting Editor
3.National Honor Society President
4.Saber Media
5.AP English
6.AP Psychology
7.Teaching Confirmation 2

and thats not even all of it. College, Scholarships, being sexy is all i have to add on to that list. and of course work on the conceitedness. haha:]

but it leaves the question...Am i Going to have a life? yes, senior year is meant to be the time where we just relax. hang out with friends, eat our hearts out, get fat, look at ourselves, tell everyone were getting fat, and then practically starve to get rid of the fat, but it never works. yeah thats what Senior Year should be. im kidding folks.

Senior Year, so ive heard, is the time to chill with friends and walk slowly to class. (im serious someone told me that!) but from what ive heard Senior Year is the defining moment of the twelve years of your life in school. so then i think, Why the Hell am i doing so much?

i think three years ago i said that i would get Senior President so i can speak at grad and NHS President so it looks good on me. well it came true. and i love it! but is it too much? all i have to say is that i made a choice a long time ago that i would do whatever it took to prove myself that i was the best. and this is the way i chose to do it. i know im gonna give up a lot of my life to do it, but in the end i know it'll be worth it. i turned out fine so far. i have a shit load of best friends, a supporting family, and my faith. so bring on Senior Year cuz Lord Ryan Lizardo is taking over. (damn i gotta work on that concieted thing><) -Ryan:]
