Yes Yes it is true. Im not dead. Horray! No no, I just havent updated on here in quite a while. I even forgot where the update button was.
Life is just so amazing right now. But the wonderful thing is that nothing is perfect, and nothing is horrible. The thing that makes life beautiful is the fact that its full of trials, and joys. Camp this year has been one of those joys for me. I went into it not knowing if thats where God wanted me, but every week I keep coming back. And every week He reassures me that indeed, that is where He wanted me. Kristin and I drive down together just like last year, and I am so thankful for our friendship. Its like having someone to laugh with, when theres nothing to laugh about..all the time. Yeah we were made to be friends. Ive made so many new friends, and been stretched so much.
I got accepted to Ecola Bible School in Cannon Beach. I was so excited when I found out, and I'm just so excited to see how God will work in everyones lives there.
My birthday was on Tuesday. The big ol 18. Yeah Im pretty young for my grade, but oh well. My Dad got me some sweet lottery tickets..BINGO! They take FOR-EV-ER to scratch and the 2 that I have scratched are no go's. I can go see rated R movies that I could have seen when I was 17 anywhere else but Salem...oh well its not really that big of a privilage. Ciggarettes are within my reach now...hah just kidding siiiick.
At camp they sing the birthday song to you, but i must have heard it at least 100 times that day. And at the end of the week they sung it again just for kicks.
Gosh I really dont know what else to write about...
Oh yeah! A bunch of us went up to Northfork today, and it was really fun we swam in the river creek thing for a long time and jumped off of the rocks and caught crawdads and fish. And I look like a tomato. Yeah all summer at camp I havent bveen wearing sunscreen and I acctually have a tan for the first summer in my life...so I thought hey why not try to get one here to..bad idea. I have never been this red before. But no worries if I keep putting lotion on it it wont peel and ill get a tan. yessssssss.
Well thats all i have for now. And hey if anyone still reads this you should write to me at camp. You dont know how fun it is to get mail from the outside world. haha
