YC: part uno


First all i have to say is HOLY COW! i had soo much fun at yc. I won't put everything into detail but I might have to make two blog enteries..lol! We arrived at Yc around i dunno 7:00. There were sooo many people. We got fairly good seats, they were kinda high up on the side, but they had a jumbotron to see everything on. So anyways, theres a guy called mike love who talked to us for awhile, then a guy called bob stromberg. They kinda talked but mostly said what would be happening this weekend. Then a guy (yes there were lots of guys..lol!) named Miles Mc Phearson, he was a formal nfl player and he kinda did the "sermon" thing. Iwas like oh great, but he was amazing! at one point he was describing this person who is a believer, but kinda stuck in the mud..thats kinda what i feel like right now. I want to get closer to God and i feel like i'm in a standstill with my faith. Aftermiles did this amazing talk, there was worship with tree 63, which was VERY emotional.. right katelynn!? lol then there was a sweeeeet audio adrenaline concert. we stayed at a chinese baptist church, which wasn't that bad. I slept in a library... haha! then we got to bed like i dunno 1:30. Then in the morning we (steph, katie and me) got muffins and chocolate milk! we drank 3 litres of chocolate milk! Then we went back to the stadium thingy and miles talked again and tree 63 did worship. Then we started sessions. The first one everyone wanted togotowas called, love, lust and acne: teenage love, isn't it great? lol hahahahha. But unfortunalty it was full so we had to go to this other one about pressure, which was kinda boring. Then i went to steller kart with leanne, rachel, keith, steph, and katie. I loooooveeeee stellar kart!! anyways, then somehow, me and steph got seperated from the group and we decided to go to hawk nelson. luckily somehow we found leon, keebo, and kent. then we stayed for pillar with them for awhilebut i wasn't feeling good so we went and feed cheesies to seagulls on top of the 15 seater. aww... i miss jim bob! lol.. anyways.... yeah, then we had dinner.. i think we had like chicken and cole slaw and stuff like that. Then we went back to the stadium thing. Miles talked again and tree 63 did worship and there was a tfk concert which was soo cool. I had never heard of them before but i love them now, although not as much as stellar kart. Well im gunna tell u more later so bye bye for now and stay tuned for yc:part 2!!!

<3>

p.s. the pic is kent in mexico..lol


heres the song i'm listning to:
spend all your time waiting
for that second chance
for a break that would make it okay
there's always one reason
to feel not good enough
and it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
oh beautiful release
memory seeps from my veins
let me be empty
and weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight
in the arms of an angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you fear
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort there
so tired of the straight line
and everywhere you turn
there's vultures and thieves at your back
and the storm keeps on twisting
you keep on building the lie
that you make up for all that you lack
it don't make no difference
escaping one last time
it's easier to believe in this sweet madness oh
this glorious sadness that brings me to my knees
in the arms of an angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you fear
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort there
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here

miss busy


yo.. well today was veryy long and i just wanted to get home..i can't wait for the summer..and well for yc too! cept for the fact that my daddy might be coming..blahh...well i talked to him adnd he said he would talk to mike and see if somebody else could drive instead of him.. and srry katie but u don't need a special liscence to drive a 15 passenger, nice try tho..lol. Unfortunatly if nobody else can drive then I guess i will have to put up with my father being on like the highlight trip of my whole year! yeah.. school was okay.. on of my friends keeps saying she's depressed and Im worried about her.. shes always worried about something, shes kinda umm immature? and shes not a social butterfly if u know what i mean..im one of the very few friends she has and she one of my best buddys. a few days ago she said that she was comin to centenial and now shes bumed out cause they decided not to do japanese and thats like her favorite thing in the whole world.. i love her to pieces and she like the sweetest girlsyou'd ever meet.. but i just worry about her sometimes becasue people get a different impression than i did when i met her because we were in grade 7 and i was all weird cause i just moved here.. but yeah. She feels like nobody loves her.. and thats not true! I tried telling her about God but she won't cum to youth because she thinks everyone doesn'tlike her and her anime shows are on at like 10:30 or something.. so next time i bring her to youth can u guys do a BIGGGGGGG favor? just reach out to her and let her know you enjoy being around her (only if you do) since katelynn is probably the only one reading this im sure u know who im talking about...
is flirting wrong if your not allowed to date?
should i just go out with someone even if i'm not allowed?
doilike him because im desperate?
does he like me?
does he like me for who i am or justwhat i look like?
who does God have picked out for me!?!?!?!
these are a few of the many random questions that are going thru my head right now..im just so confused sometimes and im one of those people that just wants to know whats happeneing...<3>

Wow...


Heyy peoples! i have beenhaving an amazing week so far. Well first of all Im getting bumped up (yay!!) to the faster team in track cause my coach says im really good. I have an 86 average in English.. which i thought would be more like a 75..lol and also im actually reading my bible everyday (remeber its all of ephesians katie!).. but today i was kinda depressed.. i dunno why but in fourth i didn't even talk.. i sat in my desk, did my work and walked out.. it was kinda weird because one of my friends next to me was being sorta umm loudish and it was really immature.. so i kinda got to be on the listning side for once. It made me realize how much I have calmeddown over this year.. i used to be always hyper and loud and obnoxious and totally out of control, but now i actually slow down a bit and breathe..Im sooo busy this week with Variety night (cum see me 7:00 on thursday or friday at my school), i have a 3 hr theory exam on saturday and of course my social life..lol..yeah.. thats not going to well..at school i feel some of my friends.. meaning one or 2.. care.. like really care about me.. the rest could be like oh grace is gone.. when did that happen? so yup.. thats that. Im scared realllllly bad too! im scared about going to centennial. Im not sure if i should change one of my electives so Im not too stressed cause im in all enriched classes. i guess i just have to keep praying that God will show me what classes I should take. man oh man.. i miss u guys at youth...its so hard at school because nobody understands..everyonethinks my lifes okay.. and i mean it is.. but theres so much stuff that bothering me and growing up is hard..esepcially beingthe oldest in your family..oh speaking of which.. uggg my dad is proabbly gunna drive one o fhte buses to alberta on yc..i REALLLLLY don't want that to happen.. its not like i don't want my dad to like see me doing bad stuff...its just .. hes my DAD!!! its like taking yur parents to camp with u..this was my three day weekend to be alone with my friends..i feel so selfish..but it bothers me a lot. Yeah... Wat else is going on?? well theres this guy at school who supposedly likes me.. he says he doesn't but does nothing when his friends say mean stuff about me and him.. i don't even like the kid and my friends always make me sit beside him in forth and it REALLLY makes me uncomfortable.. ii really don't like this kid.. i dunno wat to do.. we don't have a seating plan and yeah.. it sucks..well i will stop writing all my worries/joys/troubles and stuff so yeah. i love you guys and im gunna be late for youth on friday
