Hair-ness

i was just thinking again....

The funny thing about right now is, i have a few problems. But i dont feel like they are problems. hahaha. Weird right? I guess it's just because i'm focusing on God right now and i know He'll work everything out for the best if i follow Him. It's really simple when i see it from that perspective.  And our main goal here in life is to do what God wants us to do, not what we want to do right? so why should i worry if i dont get to do what i want to do? I dont think i should worry about it.

I'm just enjoying focusing on God right now and seeing my problems from His perspective... which is: They are very small compared to Him.

 

Camp: first day

Day 1

Camp kinda just snuck up on me this year. ususally there's a big antisipation and countdown of days, but this year, it's like camp was sudenly here. Maybe it's cuz We had the prom, then My birthday, then WrestleMania, so there were a lot of other things i was loking at.

But anyway, when we arrived at gcf, i was really excited. I wanted to find out who was in my team.  Every yea i hope that i get a certain person. I didn't this year, but i got a great team.  When i lined up to get my name tag, i saw justin jamon's name under my name tag.  I also saw johann's name on the list of my team =)  For once, i thought maybe my team could win this year. hehe.

So then i went up to the worship center and i hung out with carmela and jade. I just knew jade cuz i saw her at wrestlemania.  She waved to us there and only maow recognized her. Good thing he did otherwise she would have felt ignored hahaha.  But i didn't know her then.  So i took a bunch of pics and stuff while waiting for everyone. We did ladder match pics. :))

The bus was a bit sad cuz most of my friends were on one bus and me, maow and ian were put on a different bus.

But anyway, when we finally got to camp, we were crammed in this really tight area, which at the time i thought would be our place. i thought, how can we do round the table here? We'll fall in the pool. hehehe. It turns out it was a temporary holding place till we could get our real place, and also there was no round the table this year. awwwwwwwwwwwwwww.

Ok, so everyone on my team was Me, Justin, Hann, Lance, Joshua D., Lauren, Ji, Paolo (one of the paos), Sjay, Jacq, and carmela.  We were the Pinklets! Yey! So we got to know each other and then we got to work on our straw tower.  Our's looked really good. It looked like a bird cage. hehehe.

In the end, our team won second place for that and the cheer.  i couldn't have been happier. Well ok, i could have been, but i was happy. 

We had spaghetti after that... i made a deal with ben too about something. hahaha. Good thing we never really had to use that deal. I also saw this girl who looked exactly like nix from the side view. it was creepy. hahaha.  I told ben and jasper and they said they noticed it already. Hahaha. Every time i saw her i thought of my sister and i would text her.  Not during sessions of course. Althought one after the spy games i did text while listening to the results. haha.

The rest of day one is kinda a blur to me. I've blocked out of my memory our bathrooms and tight bed room. hahaha. I just think about our 4 bed "block" where me, maow, jumpy, jasper, james, be, and justin F would hang out and often be emo. We would stay up past lights out telling stories and stuff... and puppet shows right ben? hehehe. Ben, me, and maow planned to wake up at 6am the next day to watch the sun rise.

The next day had so much potential to meet new people and do new things... sadly... i wasn't really able to do those things. I met some new people. But not as many as i would have liked to meet. 

Day 1 passed by so fast. just like all the other days did. But it was still a great day.

Check out all my camp pics here!

Feeling camp already

Today is the first day i'm actually feeling that camp is near. Maybe it's the way the orange setting sun is filling the room. Maybe it's the smell of the air. But something just feels so much like camp. Everything seems newer... and different... better.  =)

I'm really excited for camp because i get to meet new people.  It's really cool knowing that you're gonna make new friends and form stronger friendships.  Of course, some bad things do happen at camp, nothing is perfect. But it doesn't really matter because it's the whole expirience that matters. It's what you take away from camp that matters.  It's what lasts after camp that matters.  And if you dont make mistakes, how can you learn from em right?

I'm smiling already just thinking about arriving at gcf and waiting till we can get on the bus. =)  It's gonna rock.  The thing that i really love about camp is just how everything changes after it. Everything is new and better and there's just so much possibility.  This is where the new year really begins. =)
