Here is a pic of Ayla, Ben, and Me in the coffee shop myspazzzing it out!!!

This is a pic of a group of us huddled in together. This pic reminds me of the one we took at Elevate two years ago except for that one had Parker in it.

Elevate!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, of course Elevate was amazing! It always is, but this time it was very very powerful! I also met some new people (Evan and Ben), and I got to know people I already knew a little bit better (Nobbe and Wong). On the way there, we watched Planet Earth which was actually and surprisingly very interesting. If it weren't for Nate Reeves and his love for the Planet Earth videos, I would have never known that they could actually be interesting. The snow up there was fantastic!!!!!!! Yay! Snow! The only bad thing about it was that we couldn't really go snowtubing because the snow wasn't really packed very much because it never stopped snowing. It was amazing! I also want to say that I am very proud of Ben Worland. He gave his life to Jesus this weekend, and I am very proud of him. I had just met him Friday on the bus ride there, but as I got to know him over the weekend, I found out what a great person he is and how fun he really is (except for the constant reptitive singing of 'Oh Happy Day' J/k dog! ). Also, the speaker, Matt Massey, was really really good. He really made me see things in a different way. It was interesting especially the part about how we are all princes and princesses of the Almighty King. I also want to say that I am sorry for getting so angry with you Poopie (Matt Madson for those who don't know)! I still love you! In fact, I miss you as I am typing this. I really enjoyed this past weekend (even though it is Thursday already...sorry for publishing so late), but it went way too fast. I love these trips. They really make me feel like I am that much closer to our youth group which makes me very happy indeed. Our youth group is like my second family and probably the most functional of the two. You guys really keep me going and on my feet even when times are tough. Thanks for being there. I really do love all of you guys! Well, peace out homies!

The entry that has no title!

I am really bored....and not wanting to do my homework. so far, I am really happy that all my classes are so uber easy and/or fun that my school day goes by uber fast....and i've also decided that uber is my new favorite word....it's made of awesome! Just like nerd fighters(...oh John Green you are the best!) I am tired reading all the books I own over and over again, so i've borrowed a couple books from Anna...and so far the first one i am reading is kind of cheesy....but you know good kind of cheesy...i mean is says...." What the frig is that?" That sentence to me is like one of the best sentences ever! and that's just because the word 'frig' is in it! It is also currently snowing....heavily....which rarely occurs here in podunk, Indiana! So i am very happy about that! I've decided that i want to start a vlog (video blog for those of who don't know)! I don't know why, but i was just all of sudden like "OMJ! I should totally start a vlog!" I enjoy broadcasting my life....it's worth it...plus, making videos is so much fun! yes! yes it is! well peace out homies...for now!

It's been awhile!

It's been awhile since I wrote my last blog, and I've missed it! I have just been busy a lot lately especially now that I am back in school from break and have to work five days a week (which sucks, but I need the money so i try not to complain too much). I am really excited and pumped about Elevate 2009 this weekend...it is going to be swoot (it means sweet but like 10 times better than sweet). I hope some cute boy does some pineappling me (I know it sounds wrong but it's a word along with a concept that I made up which means to flirt with...so to pineapple = to flirt with). Anyways, that's not what Elevate is about, but it sure is a nice plus. One of the main reasons I really love going on trips with my youth group (besides Jesus obviously) is because I really get to know my youth group better, and I really get close to my youth group. It's nice being close to my youth group....they're my church family! I love them (if you are reading this I love you guys!) I also heart my small group and small group leader (oh Deborah Hinton...you may be an airhead, but i still love ya! ) anywho, school = sucks...but it's all good because I have easy classes along with a study this semester! yes! well i haven't much else to say so peace out yo!
