I had three things. A job at ITS, I was vice-president of the Association of Latin American Students(ALAS), and my girlfriend of two years was finally going to come to Point Loma. I was on top of the world. Student System/Network Administrator. The job in ITS was the highest position and paying job that a student can obtain on campus. I acquired this position through my sister, but my hard work and ease in learning new things helped me keep it.

This snapshot reminded me that in the Kingdom of Heaven, there is no sorrow, but only
