I won't lie to you in order to make you think I'm feeling some sort of humble. We did a f***ing amazing job organizing that conference. Oh boy, what a fabulous con!
Friday was a little bit hectic. I had about a gazillion different jobs to do and got quite a bit stressed out. Roz is my goddess for ever and five halves.
Most people there would come up and be like, how's it going? or, how are you doing?
But wonderful marvellous Roz stands me up, sits at the computer and says "Tell me what to do."
Our country for our touch group was named Sambouca (<3 Riannon).
Our religion was the worship of Kevin Fox, because it was his birthday.
More on his birthday. On Thursday, me and Caitlin went out and bought him 17 birthday presents for his 17th birthday. They were fabulously useless things like foam swords and rubber bouncy balls. OOh, and a shot glass that lights up when you slam it down.
Also, Roopa wrapped me up in streamers and a bow and presenting me to him, along with a card that said "Luc's not coming, happy birthday". He got quite a kick out of that one lol.
Then there was a supremely awkward bunch of minutes when we were going to sleep when Ali and Slater decided to join us under the duvet. We all kind of lay there awake for who knows how long, before Ali was like "Uh, Slater, do you want to go lie down somewhere else now?"
Saturday was also pretty fabulous. Workshops went as well as we expected, and food was soo good. For free time, Sarah, Dale, Paul, Morgan, Laura, Glynis, Riannon, and Kevin came over to jump on the trampoline and we watched Edward Scissorhands.
The coffeehouse was also really good, and organised, minus the part when my dad was the MC and made humiliating comments i.e. (after I sang Light my Candle with Eric) "I don't like you staring at my daughter's ass. We're going to dance later alright!"
The bridging worship was very nice and sweet. They played Circle Game and I managed to not cry.
I was planning on staying up all night, but I realised that I was very supremely exhausted and that most of my super close friends were already asleep, so I went to bed at around 3.
And here I am, sitting at my computer, somewhat lonely, not allowing myeslf to fall asleep, because I know that if I do, I will sleep until I don't need sleep any more, and then I will never sleep tonight.
