so i know that my huge audience has been waiting for my official summer recap 2008 edition. well, here it is:
this was, without a doubt, probably the best summer that I have ever had. yeah, there were times when i wanted to give up and give in, but God wouldn't let me. there were times when i was frustrated and pissed off because of the way that either i or a friend was treated by the logistics of camp ozark, but God kept me calm. He was the theme of the summer. He showed me that I need him more and more. He taught me to let go of the little things which is one of my main problems. I tend to worry about stupid stuff. At camp, I didn't have the time or energy to do such things which caused me to focus more on the Lord and not on myself. Whenever you're in charge of 10 teenage boys, you hardly ever have time for yourself. it was awesome. these relationships that I made with my kids will last forever. they're great! these are kids that I want to hang out with because they are that cool. i wish i was that cool when I was 14. i keep on getting distracted by jon and kate plus eight so its taking me a very long time to write this entry.
on top of have awesome kids all summer, i had awesome co's. each session, I would always worry about who my co would be. i wanted someone who was legit and who I didn't have to worry about. i loved my co's each session. i hope to be able to visit some of them. i think i'm for sure going to starkville to visit hunter and the rest of the state crew and I want to go to baton rouge to stay with quentin and visit brooke. currently, there is ANOTHER hurricane that is hitting louisiana so I hope that they are okay. quentin is from new orleans and has been through so much with katrina. i wish it would've hit texas just so they could've had a break from this crazyness.
well this has taken me at least an hour to write so I think i'm just gonna call it quits. i'll be posting more later.
p.s. i decided to not to younglife this semester/year. this was on my heart all summer long and I know that this is what needs to happen. because of this, i may rejoin.............(you'll find out at a later date!)
