Jerms and Kris came over Friday night so we could find some jazz in the streets.
We never did find any jazz, but we had a good time despite, running into old Woodstock friends and walking down by the water front. Kris couldn't find her ID, so we bought White Russian makings and danced in the apartment. Tried to find Jazz a secnond time, but alas, the supposed "kick off" of the festival wasn't really that good of one. After some babysitting last night I checked out the scene, and there was much more sound bopping on Church.
But the water front was realy pretty, and I was just glad to have the two of them :-) We made pancakes and bacon in the morning, and after they left I went and got a little tan in Battery Park. A band started to play covers in the shell.... very badly.
So! I'm looking for a roomate. I've got a couple months and already two potentials. Jill's sister is moving up, and the place is way small for three people. I just wouldn't be able to deal. So! It's kind of exciting. And I get to go out and buy some furniture, which is neat. I'll also be snagging that large bedroom with the DOOR. Yay!
I'm also really looking forward to a cookout I was invited to this Saturday. I had forgotten about it, and Jerms and Kris are supposed to be coming, but maybe they won't miss me for a couple hours. It'll be good to meet some more people.
AND!! I got my assignment for Creation Festival, and it's to good to pass up. That is tons of fun, and I can't wait to see all the people I worked with last year. Yay!!! Meeting all the bands I admire and being on stage is really awesome too. I think last year I talked to the base player from Petra, Martin Smith from Delirious, Duncan Philips from Newsboys, all the guys from Kutlass, lead singer from Pillar... gosh. And to be on stage for Newsboys was by far the best part, starts above, Captain Crunch boxes waving in a sea of thousands of arms
Church today was amazing. It's hard to convey in words how it made me feel. It was on giving yourself completely, no matter what the circumstances, and while sermons like that can often make one feel guilty, I think the whole church was convicted yet so full and inspired that guilt just didn't exist. Just this amazing feeling, and by the end of the sermon, almost everyone was standing at the front, hands on each others shoulders. I have never been one to go up front, and I know it's that pride I have a hard time shedding, worrying what people will think. Once I was up there I realized how it wasn't so hard after all, and I just felt connected to the church. I've been going since October, but I felt it was the first time I belonged to the church's family.
The people there are really great. The old lady friends I have made are hooking me up with job and roomate info, giving me phone numbers to call, etc. They are also trying to get me to go to Bible Study (as soon as I'm on that email list) and Choir rehearsals once they start again in the fall. I went to the "Eldos" yard sale today (kind of like the Elks Club, but for the women) and got rid of some stuff and bought kitchen ware.
Right! School in the morn. Enjoy the week!
P.S. My resume and letter of interest are sent, and looked pretty darn good. My boss at Edmunds (Steph) is already harrassing the lady who hires by email and phone, saying that if she has to lose me to anyone, it would be to this job. Steph also said that the lady owes her a favor, and she's going to call her on it. Hehe. Sweet!
