Aisha's Journey

  Casi después de 2 meses, llego el día esperado para ver “El Señor de los Anillos: las dos torres ”. Estuvo el clan original compuesto de Owen y Tanya con una integrante nueva, nuestra querida Dani. Aprovechamos el día libre para los asesores después del JONACAP (Jornada Nacional de Capacitación) para descansar con una buena película buenas conversaciones. A diferencia de la primera película, encontré que esta tenia muchos temas bien interesantes y estaba llena de esperanza. Voy a estar dando varios spoilers así que, si aún no la has visto, ¡te animo a que dejes el blog y veas la película lo más pronto posible! (Aunque son como unas 3 horas, pero bueno, ¡salen volando con tan buen contenido!) Hay demasiado de lo que se puede hablar de esta película, por ejemplo, la escena de exorcismo por un Gandalf Blanco, pero solo tocare algunos puntos.   Los Ents Parecido a las historias de Narnia, los ents de Tierra Media hablan. Aunque los ents tienen aspecto de árbol, son los p...

Si me conoces sabes que me encanta encontrar nueva música y ver películas. Así que cuando salió la idea de poder ver “El Señor de los Anillos: la Comunidad del Anillo” con Tanya y Owen (amigos asesores en GBU), dije que sí. Cuando chica mis papas habían traído en VHS la primera película de “El Señor de los Anillos” creada en 1978. Lo único que me acuerdo es que tenía muchas criaturas raras y mucha confusión en la trama alrededor del anillo, así que nunca más lo vi. Entendiendo que es una historia altamente referida dentro del mundo cristiano, sabía que tarde o temprano tendría que ver por lo menos la película más actual. Pero como muchas cosas en la vida, se postergo. ¡Qué bueno es tener amistades! ¡La película fue fantástica! Tan fantástica que lo compartí con mi familia y lo vimos el próximo día todos juntos (¡les gusto!). Si aun no la has visto, recomiendo que uses este tiempo de encierro y disfruta una película que te dejara pensando por días. Aun nos falta ver las películas que ...

LAST WEEK   As you might've noticed, I haven't posted anything regarding last week. It's been a while so I won't recall details but there were things to celebrate. I was invited to the house of one of the ladies at church and had an awesome time. We had a bonfire and roasted hot dogs and s'mores. The highlight of the evening was watching her Evening Primrose bush blossom at around 8 pm. It was quite the view! We were invited as interns to the house of someone from the executive team and had a blast! We were able to hear of the couple's experiences as they traveled the world and the ways God has been working in them. With a few interns we went to Celebrate Lancaster. A whole street was blocked with food trucks and music, celebrating Lancaster's 275th Anniversary. I was able to have my first days at the part-time job! I'm going to be completely honest, it's tiring. I enjoy it though, there i...

I named this post "thoughts" because I just want to share some of the things I have been processing and reflecting on lately. This past weekend was very interesting and a new experience for me. Both my roommates were gone, one left Wednesday and the other on Thursday. They had both shared with me previously and were caring in terms of finding different options of how I could spend the next 3 days well. I didn't know what to expect. I began to worry that I would lose track of time and daydream or resort to trivial activities to keep me from boredom. I thought I would become increasingly homesick and have a horrible weekend thinking of my family and the different things they would be doing instead. I am glad none of the above were the outcome! I not only had a very productive weekend, but a much needed time alone. I was not bored at all because there was so much I had to do, but I was also given time to reflect and think in times where I would regularl...

Second Sunday!! So you might be wondering the meaning of my title. This week I have been blessed to have friends who have cared for me, and it's all been through food. I have been reminded of the beauty of friendship and it has taught me things of myself and of being a better friend. After a hectic Tuesday, we were able to start our first day in the office Wednesday. However, because of all the orientation we had, Thursday was our first day working. Up to this point, all our meals had been provided for us. I was excited that the moment would come where I would prepare my first lunch. I had the easiest cook-in-the-microwave meals to try-out. The day before, I made sure to have everything put into containers and then stuffed into my lunchbox. I was ready to start right! It was Thursday morning and as I was ready to go outside, I realized it was raining. I ran to get my coat and in all the hectic movement of things, left the lunchbox by the front door. I only realized wh...
