  This post is dedicated to the one and only Dina Canlas. For those of you who don't know her, she's this really weird, short girl who pretends to know me, and so she comes up to talk to me at school or at church. What a psycho! Just joshing y'all. Dina is an absolutely completely awesome girl who I got to know at NCYC. I'd talked to her a few times before, but usually only to ask about the status of her older brother Michael. Well, Dina rocks my socks off with her always-happy demeanor and her funny quips about random passers-by. She's completely into God, which is awesome, and isn't afraid to share her faith with anyone and everyone.
That is some true guts right there. So Dina comes up to me after church today with this spring-tinted bag. I mean, Christmas presents are usually in Christmas wrapping, but this one was definitely not, ha ha. So I go to open up the gift, and it's... diapers! Lord knows I need those, right Melissa? Remember Super Mario at my grandparent's house? But inside the diapers are awesome pictures of me at NCYC! In the first one was me taking off my shirt to give to two girls who were fighting for me to get it off. I bet that is the first and last time in my life that that will ever happen. The next picture was of me, Dina, and Irma Glueck, taken by "some random Catholic. " And the last picture was of... yep, you guessed it: Matt from The Real World. Just what I wanted!
Ha ha, actually, it was great cuz it was during his chastity talk, so it's like a reminder to do my best to stay chaste. Very cool, very cool. I would like to publicly thank Dina for her gift and for being an awesome person and a great friend. I also liked the pictures of toilets on the card! Keep it real, Dina, and stay cool! God bless
