Camp two

Camp two...this Saturday
The one week to rule them all.
One week to change the world
or at least 100 kids and staff

Feelings I am having with two sleeps to go:
scared, nervous, excited, pumped, over-whelmed, and happy

Puree these all together and that is kind of how I feel...

Maybe add restless to that...yup that's it.

This week is going to be amazing.

Words cannot describe this week.

I am dying to see what God has in store for all of these teens and how he will work through the staff.

Wow

Make money money

First day of summer and I am bored....

Being sick in the summer (if you can call this summer) is the worst. (who is sick in the summer anyways?)

Being back home in Ladner is also the worst. (Tres boring especially when sick!)

But on the bright side...My mom made my dad some sugar pie for fathers day...but he wont be home for another 10 days.
I mucked that pie good! Ohh it was so Yummmmy!

Tara coming to Vancouver this weekend, Camp two in like 17 days and my Mexico trip in less than two months are all coming up. I am so excited for all three of these things. Too excited. Perhaps my current boredom is just all part of the "calm before the storm." (the storm=good times).

Ohh, before I forget, for all who don't know....Monday is Value Villages 50% off day! So get it whiles it's hot!

I did so much stuff this past year and I have been on the go constantly. I have a list of things, if I had the time, I would like to do. However, when I finally run into a day with no plans, no work and nothing to do, I get confused and become immovable. I can always think of things I should and can do, but I can't do anything productive. I am just get stuck.
I don't know why this happens. I really did nothing today. I get a little down on myself when days or times like this come about. I think it might be because I am lazy..but I am not consistently lazy.

Anyways, that's my thought of the day
If anyone ever wants to make some sugar pie and eat it with me, I would be more than willing too!! It will change your life.

Seriously.

Gooooo

I have not “bloged” in ages. I entirely forgot I had one. My bad friends!
So what’s new with me you might be thinking intently?
Well my friends, Let me share with you…

I have completed my time at life teams. No more Abbotsford for me!
I have moved back to Radner. I am still in the process of legally altering my towns name from Ladner to Radner. I think it would be a change for the better.
I work at a sketchy restaurant on Broadway called East is East. I get complimentary food. So I am tremendously pumped about that.
I imagine that is why I love the job so much. I get fed during AND after my shift.
Pure Beauty.
They also have tea that is made of flowers. Weird.

I start nursing in September. I am pretty nervous. However, I’m truly eager to start learning some new stuff. I really miss Biology and the sciences, as much as a pain in the Bum it can be!

I am so pumped for Camp. It’s coming up so swiftly. Like a week ago I was sure I had about three more months to prepare for camp. Now I have one and a bit.

The new Harry Potter is coming out…lions and tigers and bears OH MY!

Kirsty P. What a magnificent man you are. Call me!

I started to lift some weights. But I am ending that really soon. Mostly because they are too heavy. What’s with that anyways?

I still can’t do a real push-up. Not a single one. I am so feeble. I am little bit embarrassed of this fact.

My goals for the summer:
A) Go to the new exhibit at science world. I heard it is “gross-ology” I am so excited!
B) Do one push-up
C) Be friends with you

..And that’s about it.

Yeah
Bye

Oh Gad..

The first annual Wacky Olympics!

So on Wednesday evenings I am a Volunteer leader for Kids Club at Fraser View church in Richmond. This past Wednesday we had our “WaCkY OlYmPics.” It went really great!

This is the group shot just after the final event which was....drum roll please.....bruuuuuuuuuuuuuu
A three minute SILLY STRING fight...Most expensive 3 minutes of fun ever... (225$) It was my wildest dreams come true.....It was so toxic. Like really toxic. I got it in my mouth and it went numb...it was magical! No kids suffered long-term damages...we hope.

Kids though it would be fun to keep it...dirty toxic string of silliness...ohh gad.
Me and some of my teammates.

This girl is me in the making...Holly. I want to be just like her, and she wants to be just like me. We work well together!
This is one of my roommates Russel (Second to the left) and he is working hard at being a good leader and getting the kids really excited about the Olympics. His method... napping! Thumbs up Russel! You are my hero.
Me cheering...by myself...story of my life.
My team Won..we cheated but you know...we still won. So that's........

So I went rock climbing. WALL OF DEATH I think it was called…
It was pretty good. You know…pretty pointless sport. You climb up a wall and go back down a wall. You climb up the wall and go back down a wall…etc. It takes a stupid amount of good breathing and strength just to make it up (Two things that I do not have). Once you are there (at the top) you can give your self a “Woohoo” for being ridiculous enough to climb a wall for no real reason.
I looked pretty hardcore with my bloody knee! I was pretty excited about that…
Oh, I also learned that I can look like a nine year old boy. Or he could look like me. His parents are highly concerned that he will become like me one day. We are presently working through this unfortunate situation and a restraining order. Haha. Just kidding. He eats meat.

Today my papa and I went on an exciting trip to Canadian Tire and Tim Horton’s for a coffee and donut today. We started talking about the lack of Christmas lights up in our new area in Ladner which led to a discusion on how the true meaning of Christmas is going to shit. I started to get really upset and angry about it on the way home. Why would someone want to ruin something that is so important for so many people? It would be like having everyone I know, come over to celebrate my birthday. But, they all would only come for the party and just insult me, spit on me and ignore me. And instead of singing happy birthday to me, they would intoxicate their selves with consumerism, media, and sure, why not, drugs and alcohol. I never had a problem with non-Christian celebrating Christmas. Heck I was one of them. But when they start changing the purpose and telling us we are not ALLOWED to celebrate our holiday. That. Ohh. That makes me so very livid- like gnashing your teeth livid. I have no idea where the concept came from that Canada or America is an “explicitly” atheist country. We kicked god out. We tell God to get out of our schools, out of out lives, out of our work ethic and out of our governments. No wonder why the world and Christmas is Diminishing! For all those people who ask us, “If god is so great and powerful, why does He let bad things happen?” Well, how can he give us protection and blessings if we don’t let him into our world? God isn’t like us. He is a gentleman. If we ask God to get out of our lives, he will get out. God is deeply saddened by things, just as we are. We believe the newspaper and magazines but we question the bible. We simply trash god and Christianity and then sit back in and wonder why teenagers are bringing guns to school and shooting their classmates in the head. I come home to ladner from being away for 3 months and my old school is in a friggin’ lockdown because some kids threaded to kill their classmates. But no, Christmas tree are offensive! We Reap what we sow folks! (Galatians 6:7-9). We see this in out daily lives, the lives of our friends and family, the downtown east side, in our native reserves and in our environment. Anyways…I’m getting really upset here; I need to get some chocolate. I never feel confident to voice my opinions out loud just because I feel sometimes i'm to uneducated and I just allow my heart and feelings to take over way to much. Or maybe not. Je ne sais pas. Avoir.

All your base belongs to us.
