God opens up opportunities when we least expect it. But more importantly, He gives us opportunity when we are ready and open to His plan.
Day 09- Something you’re proud of in the past few...
Going to the Blessed Sacrament after work. Trying to make it an every other day or everyday thing after work. Best way to reflect and relax. <3
What's more important, the map or the car?
Need your help
Hello all! I’m planning on designing totes with scripture + illustrations inspired by beauty and love. If you have a scripture verse, or anything in mind, please leave me a note. I’ve been praying about this project for some time now, so hopefully it actually goes through!
PS. Would you buy silk screened tote bags with illustrations + scripture on it? I need some input. Thanks!
Day 08- Short term goals for this month and why
I’m going to check out other gym alternatives. I’m not the “typical” gym rat. I prefer athletics because I get bored with machines too easily. So far on the list is the Diablo Rock Gym. My main purpose of purchasing a membership is to keep in shape and explore new things. I definitely need the challenge and change of scenery!
Day 07- A picture of someone/something that has...
The obvious answer: God
As an innocent child, I loved Him without question. But my teenage and beginning college years were dark. Until I really took the time to recognize, know, and love Him, life has never been the same since. He showed me the path to the Church He founded. He introduced me to amazing communities. He made me realize the importance of being a woman. He made me realize my worth....
Day 06- Favorite super hero and why
I don’t really have one but if I did I’d say…

Just because she’s a young chick with awesome style and an aggressive attitude. Girl powah!

If you are a Lutheran, your religion was founded by Martin Luther, an ex- monk of the Catholic Church, in the year 1517.
If you belong to the Church of England, your religion was founded by King Henry VIII in the year 1534 because the Pope would not grant him a divorce with the right to remarry.
If you are a Presbyterian, your religion was...

Day 05- A picture of somewhere you’ve been to
Japan was amazing. It left me with uncomfortable feelings of culture shock. I didn’t like it at first but after returning back to the States I realized how unique and special Japan was. Besides being a shopping and food heaven, I really admired how kind everyone was. Sigh… I’ll be back soon!

Day 04- A habit that you wish you didn’t have
I’m always late :-(
Reading my mini testimony before Mass today....
Day 03- A picture of you and your friends
This is a hard one to narrow down considering all the amazing friends I have. But to be honest my family has seen the best and worst of me. My mom especially… She is my mom first, friend second. Below is a picture of my fam taken in 2008.

1. I got my name (Remilla) from my dad’s older sister who passed away when she was a child.
2. I freak out when I walk over sewer tops and anything that opens up to an underground.
3. I almost always leave the crust from my sandwich untouched.
4. Majority of my girlfriends living in Long Beach play the guitar.
5. When I was a child my brother accidently dropped me from my stroller...

Definitely not a hobby
Sometimes I feel like my friends think of my faith as some sort of hobby. Whenever we talk about church/church friends/church retreats, it’s as if it’s a part of my life separate from who I am with them. But the truth is my faith consumes every bit of me. I don’t live for my hobbies, I live for my faith.
Beauty is nothing if you have a rotten attitude...
Every call demands a response.
Thoughts in my head
Inspired by Mark Hart’s talk this past weekend at the Young Adult conference:
I use to think I needed a huge conversion story to know that I was truly changed. I went to Bible camp and all my friends claimed to be “saved” and ever changed. I never really experienced that “moment”. I’ve had moments but never just one moment. It’s always been more like a...
Today 2 people asked me if I was going to move in with my boyfriend before marriage, which obviously is not going to happen. One of them called me “traditional”. But I would like to just think of myself as smart.
RECAP
At the end of the week I like to look back at all the blessings God has surprised me with through out the week. Constant conversation with God sure makes a difference. I got a job offer because I showed Him I’m not one to give up. I exercised to the point of being sore because I showed Him how much I value His creation, my body. My family got together to celebrate the arrival of my Uncle...
