So yes. I, Holly Pollock, did something SPONTANEOUS. I know it's hard to believe... take a moment to take it all in... I don't even know what came over me. I just got all crazy and was like "no, we're doing it, let's go, take nothing" and off we were. The drive was even more fun than being at Vegas, to me. Singing our lungs out, me being a nerd and sounding like an idiot... I should be in Aaron's army and sing 100%. Hehe... awesome. There were really scary guys at Vegas in the middle of the night. Next time we're going in the day or staying in the car... Trever was there in a hotel we spent like an hour in. Weird... And he sold his car to Chris. Don't worry Chris, I'll get over it soon... I just associate it with him too much. Am I crazy? It's just weird.......... Anyway, the street was Zzyyxx Road. "Zzzzeeeks" Road? I don't know. Most random street name ever in the most random middle of nowhere spot ever. Maybe when you're in death valley for too long you stop making sense are start speaking jibberish.. like that name. Or maybe it sounds kind of like a sneeze... On the way there the moon was all crazy. We were driving up a steep hill and it looked huge and like a cheshire cat smile. But then it got tiny again and I missed it. Anyway, all in all, I stayed up 42 hours straight and had a great time. I think I'm definitely going to take a nap later, though.
I saw Tara yesterday... I was happy about that. I don't see her much anymore. We all went to Cal Oaks after church and Trever, Sarah, and Kim all came to meet us. Then Sarah, Kim, and I dragged Geoff along to look at our soon to be new home! I LOVE it. Best place ever. Plus we get a student discount AND 50 extra dollars off rent each month because the one we want has been vacant for over 30 days. This place is amazing... and living with them will be amazing... please pray that this will all go through quickly! We saw this lady Rita get baptized, ate amazing Pomodoro's, went to Barnes and Noble and accidentally ditched Kim and Geoff without our phones... (sorry, we're jerks!!!!!) we just wanted to sit on the stage in the kids section.. and had yummy yummy tea at Sarah's. I love tea. So much.
I'm feeling soooooooo aware of too many things around me. I can't decide if it's a blessing or a curse. I just keep seeing more and more things in the church that need to change. Geoff had some good advice last night. Thanks. :) So.. if you guys could just pray for clarity for that, that would be great! I'm thinking about getting more involved at South Hills, too. I'm not sure doing exactly what.. but I feel like I should be involved there since that's the church I go to. I like Wednesday nights at Crossroads, and will continue doing it, but it's not my church, you know? Maybe I'm just weird.. I really want to step up my Christian walk... and I'm so thrilled to have people around me who don't only support me, but want to jump in too. I think this year is going to be filled with amazingness since God will be in the center of it all. I love you guys... and I'm so thankful for you!!!
God Bless you all...
and Uh, Darns, and Peter Chaucer.
