Headed to Rifle Colorado

We are at the hotel right now after finishing one day of driving, and one more day of driving to go. Every room of high school kids had to have an adult in the room, and I was the assigned adult to Garrett Sutton and Zach Stephenson's room. Zach and Garrett planned on waking up at 7:15, but I planned on waking up at about 7:45 or whenever both guys had finished showering. So when I got up the hotel clock said 7:45, but the guys were also just waking up so we were kind of in a hurry. I went to eat breakfast while they were getting ready, and the clock down in the lobby said 7:15, which turned out to be the real time. I now have a few extra minutes so might as well post.

We'll get to Rifle tonight, host their worship service tomorrow in which I'm preaching, then throughout the week host a VBS for the community. We've got 20 people going, and we made some pretty sweet stuff for the VBS, like a big boat thing out of cardboard and possibly the best ring toss game ever out of water bottles and cardboard and spray paint. I'll probly put pictures up later.

A New Era Has Begun

This is my third day in the office at church. I thought last night was awesome: I gave a presentation in the high school class about my Thailand trip, Bonnie, the other intern, taught the junior high, and afterwards there were hours of epic 9 vs. 9 volleyball games, with several subs in the rotation for each team. Basically get ready for a legendary summer

Here's a few things I'll be working on this summer:
- spend time everyday memorizing scripture
- spend time everyday studying some spanish

as far as interning with the youth group:
- I'll be working on the Rifle, colorado mission trip
- setting up JH and HS gym days
- camp Goddard (though I'm not 100% sure what I'll be doing in which camp)
- setting up Terrific Tuesdays where we do things with the JH like volunteer and go to Ranger games or Six flags each Tuesday
- basically getting everyone included and involved

I'm packin

gots ta get mah room empty, so I'm puttin everything in boxes

My Easter Miracle

I thought I had a huge emergency tonight. I have a project due tomorrow. I've lost probably 20 hours of my life writting computer code for this project. When I was probably 30 minutes away from finishing, I hit "save as" randomly and saved over my file, just in case my computer froze or something . The only problem was, I had opened up another page before I saved, so that I saved this useless page over my whole project. This meant no sleep and rewriting everything tonight and probably an incomplete project to turn in tomorrow, until I figured out I had backed up the project a little earlier, so I didn't lose that much, and just finished with everything working! It was an Easter Miracle. Time to sleep

School controls my life

Woohooo! Just got a back 93 on my stability and control test, so I'm excited. Now I'm studying 72 hours straight for my Engineering math test on Thursday. And there's not really too much hw or projects due this week, so it should be hard to find time around assignments to study like it usually is.

Wednesday is kind of busy so I want to get studying done now. I'm getting something to eat with Morgan after her work at 5, then church, then playoff intermural mens basketball. I'm gonna try and get that moved though because lots of ppl on the team have a test on thursday to study for that bball would get in the way of.

yo yo yo postin on that blog of mine

Test tomorrow.

So mom and dad have accepted a job at a children's home in Amarillo and they're getting everything ready to sell the house. I think they will be awesome at it. They'll be in charge of like 8 kids, but those 8 kids will change because they're kind of like substitutes house parents. I think it might be hard sometimes, but i hope rewarding, and I hope it's a dream come true for dad to not have to have an office job. I'm proud to tell people about it and I hope they do well in what might be a thankless job. Or possibly they might get a lot of thanks but not from their paycheck.

As for me, just keeping school the main time commitment right now, doing RA stuff, and tryin to keep Nishadi from being mad at me. Not that she gets mad or anything, just I figure I can be a pretty frustrating person (:
