Two Decades
I turned 20 on sunday november 5th!! Yay! I'm a little sad not to be a teenager anymore, but I will always be a kid at heart.
I spend most of my birthday in Marshalltown at the Coc youth rally. What an excellent event it was. One of the best turnouts I've seen in years. I thouroughly enjoyed it. I got to see Lonnie who skipped camp this year (grumbles). We finally forced Tim Baily to watch Phantom Of The Opera (he loved it). We played three games of Mow, one of which I won--woot! A few York types made their way up. Chelsea who is one of the funniest people in the world. Kale who is sucha sweetheart--lights up a room. I finally got to meet Kale's boyfriend Ben who was really cool. He was a last minute speaker (as two of the others backed out suddenly). He did an amazing job and fit right in with the camp crowd. We had a makeshift campfire in the church parking lot with the cars flying by on the highway. Not quite the same as at camp, but a worthy supplement. It was just overall, a wonderful weekend. I was so glad I could go.
In other news, I am planning on trekking down to cornerstone 07 next year. One of my best friends (jason) live not too far from there and usually goes. Plus another great friend's (Dennis) website is one of five sponsors at the Underground stage, and he will be doing daily devos every morning. Plus, there's always the chance that John Davis will be there again (crosses fingers). Problem is, if I were to actually do this, it would put me out of work for another weekend out of the summer. I feel like because of that, on top of two weeks of camp (and maybe a week to see the fam on the east coast), I'm gypng my coworkers at the Pie. I feel like I'm taking too much time off. Arrgh.
Plus, I'm gearing up for transfering next fall which is overwhelming me. I really dislike change and responcibility. I'd rather things just happen to me, or I get ordered what to do by God without any questions. Decisions.
Anyway, I'm 20!!! Woot!!!
