i gather my insufficiencies and place them in Your hands
today we did a retreat at Blackfriars, an all boys school for 2 classes of Year 10's. it was a bit scary. the hard thing with all boy schools is that you never quite know how they're going to react. sometimes they're like 'girls! hi! talk to us!' and other times they're like 'get out, this is OUR school', so you never know how to ataround them.
today they were really good, and the old saying 'flirt to convert' came into handy! it was really funny, like, we're 5 years older than these guys, but they still will pay attention to you and not talk when you are talking if you're nice to them, it was fun!
there are 4 girls and 2 guys on this trip, so Karl and Ronan were all like "you boys had better be polite to these girls and make them feel welcome, because it can be really scary as a girl to have to speak in front of 40 males, okay?" and they were really nice.
at lunch and recess they were showing off doing soccer tricks, but it was funny, so we encouraged them! it was great!
dont think we were ACTUALLY flirting or anything, not at all, we just were really joking and talkative and stuff with them.
anyway, i'm really excited about Adrenaline. I helped design the stage, and it's HOT!!!!!!!! we've got some wicked ideas for next year, and i think im on security again, but i dunno. City Impact is doing pretty much all the tech and backstage stuff, just like Youth Alive Easter Camp, which will be really fun! i'm excited about seeing the Nubian Gents again, the dancers from New York, they're amazing!
anyway, i think thats all the rambling i can handle for today... bye.
im home on thursday night for those of you who were asking / wondering
