November 17, 2002@9:06 pm.
I got back from retreat today. It was a lot fun! i got to know everyone so much better and found out my spiritual gift! there was a tie with Healing and Miricales which both basically mean that i pray for healing and i belive that things that other people see as impossible can be achieved through prayer with God. It was a lot of fun we left @ 6:30 on friday night and then had short devotion and basiacally had the rest of the night for free time. I woke up early sat and went running with Amanda and Tara. lol only went for a little while cause that place was all hills and it was still dark out so we didnt get very far from the cabins. We didnt get to the do the low or high ropes cause it rained the whole time we were there. blah! and was all muddy so we had to play team building "games" in the cabin. which werent that bad but i really wanted to do high ropes. We had a lot of free time on sat. we walked down to the lake and took some pictures. listened to the osu game on the radio lol cuase we were out in the boonies and didnt get any channels what so ever. it was funny i flet like we were in the 40s or something. I got to spend a lot of time wiht Jared which was awesome, hes a really cool kid and got to know John and Miles a lot more, im glad Miles came cause he came to work camp but he didnt really talk to many people so it seems like hes getting a lot more comfortable. we played capture the flag @ 10 wiht the other church that was there and played till about 12:30. it was fun but it was really cold and muddy and there were all these rules and crap so you couldnt escape from jails and all sorts of stuff whihc jsut made it all the less fun )-: but overall it was pretty ok. we didnt get to have a fire outside either cause it was so wet so we had to have our bonfire inside. we still got to make our smores and got to sing and it was warmer inside anyway so it wasnt that bad. We had to wake up really early this mornign and pack and get ready for church and everything before we had breakfest @ 8 so that was kinda hecktick, but it all worked out. We pretty much slept all the way back to cuhrhc and were back @ like 9:30 for the 11 service. So we had a little downtime before the service. Heather, Caitlyn and Tara all joined the churhc today so that was really cool to see, plus it was concercration sunday so the choir sounded really awesome.
So i had some time off after i got back from lunch after church so i took a nap (-: and then went to my cheerleading banquet @ 6. It was awesome, we all got along really well and it only went for 2 hours and so yea it was awesome. I also got the award for most dedicated (-: i was really happy, i also got scholar athlete and my numerals for my letter jacket (-: im like going craay with all these smilies in this entry, im just in a really good mood.
I also got promoted to cashier!!!!! omgosh yes i know, im just having the best 2 weeks! God must be really looking out for me! lol cause i also got to see Harry Potter this weekend AND go to Chipotle! yea wow, saw the play run through which was the shiznit an its not even done, i'll get to see that this saturday hopefully! its gonna be soo awesome!!! so many of my friends are in it too - so their just in the courtroom scence, but Antwan is Reverand Sikes.
