It well may be
That we will never meet again
In this lifetime
So let me say before we part
So much of me
Is made of what I learned from you
You'll be with me
Like a handprint on my heart
And now whatever way our stories end
I know you have re-written mine
By being my friend:
Like a ship blown from its mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a skybird
In a distant wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you:

The last few days

Okay. So i was sick. Like really sick. Like go to the doctor and take drugs sick. I had to stay in my room for 3 days. I couldn't sleep too well 'cause my throat was swollen up so my day see sawed between trying to sleep and emailing... well that is until the internet went out at like 3am or something and stayed out until today (3days... the whole time i was in my room). That was a bummer. :'(
Buuuuttt, it gave me the idea to work on discovering the potential of my new macbook whom i have christened nicholas. So now i have a 15 minute (well, unfinished anyway) slideshow of EQUIP training pictures.
Oh! and on top of that, I'm gonna (prolly) be getting an LIT in the next week... who's got some serious issues, so i hear. So thaaaats interesting. But i'm just glad to be better. I never realized what a blessing it is to be able to swallow!
Aaaaanyway, Sometimes i just miss home. Sometimes a lot. I am up here on 13th with my cool friend and life is so good. So so good. And my dad said he wanted to have a long conversation with me sometime so that makes me really happy.

Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.
Phl 4:11

Lovin that verse.

Well, time for curfew. God keep you. I love you.

So Love is Blue

Okay. Here's the update! We just had leaders meeting and, as i predicted, everyone is switching rooms. Emily is moving off of Fhallons team and Mary and Bella are going to be her leaders. Only news of one new LIT coming in the near future and chances are that she will be moving in with ME!!!!

That means I will be in CHARACTER SUITE!!!
The cool thing is that i already live in a C.S. room so i won't have to move. Plus Lydia is going to be moving in with me and she is totally the bomb.
Whoever is praying for me, thank you. Thank you so much. It is way easier than i thought it would be to get my head ready for C.s. I thought i would be.... well, i still might go crazy. C.S. is when you stay in a two room suite with an LIT and one other leader (lydia) for at LEAST two weeks. One of the leaders gets to go down an get food at every meal but other than that you are pretty much stuck.
GAaaaahhh!
I am gonna get cabin fever! So if anyone has time, letters over the next few weeks would prolly save my life. REALLY.

Wow. Vacation flew by so fast i hardly had time to blink and now it all feels like a dream.

*sighs* well, its almost time for dinner.
I get the room to my self for 5 days. Thats cool. Wish i had a cell phone tho.... =/
