Journal Entry from 6-28-2006

Father, as I lay here in the outdoor chapel, I feel you drawing me nearer. As I watch these children play and gaze on these majestic mountains, I feel you making my heart ever more tender. I hear your heartbeat in the river and in the birds. The contrast of the grandeur of the scenery and the intricacies of each flower petal, of each insect's wing - Lord you never cease to amaze me. I am in awe. And yet you created man. Man - what you call the pinnacle of your creation. Man - the single organism responsible for the degradation of so much of your beautiful world, for your heartache. Even so you still love man - you still love ME. Your imperfect, rebellious child. Father, I could question your unfailing love. I could search you for the logic behind your constant forgiveness. But that's just it. There is no logic - you need no explanation. And I am amazed. Lord thank you and thank you again. For seeing me fit for that kind of love. God I want that kind of love. I want to offer that to others. Make me a woman who is strong enough in you to LIVE that love and PRACTICE that love.

Father, renew me. Put a new, vibrant, unquenchable spirit in me. Purify my heart!!

"...Refiner's Fire
My heart's one desire
Is to be holy
Set apart for you, Lord
I choose to be holy
Set apart for you my Master
Ready to do your will..."

A DAY OFF!!

Hey all!!
So today was my day OFF which ended up being AMAZING!! Me and the girls who are on my shift didnt wake up till SEVEN FIFTEEN which was AWESOME!!! That's the latest I've slept since I've been here!!
So Kallie, Natalie, and I (they're my hiking buddies!!!) ate breakfast and then went back up to the cabin to be lazy for a while... we read Natalie's adventure magazines and talked for a while and then at about noon we went back down for lunch! After that, the three of us went on our hike for the day! It was SO much fun!! We hiked about a mile and a half, but we bush-wacked most of the way! (for those of you who dont know, bush-wacking is when you make your own trail! I just found that out the other day...) It was a blast! We saw a meadow on the side of a mountain across the river from us and decided that we wanted to go! We hiked about a mile up the river to a GORGEOUS bridge to cross... We followed some game trails (deer and elk trails, we think) for a while and then "bush-wacked" our way through marshes (strangely enough) and over LOTS AND LOTS of down trees to the meadow! I actually have video of Kallie and I attempting to get across several large trees to the other side of the trail!! It was interesting!
We had a blast, though, and I can't wait until our hike tomorrow!!

Okay, so I've gotta run because I'm only allowed 15 mins on the phone per night, so I LOVE Y'ALL A TON!!! I miss you...
Mama and Ms Rita, I need to know when y'all are coming as soon as possible! I need to put in advanced notice for visitors, and the sooner I know the better!!

TONS OF LOVE!!

Okay guys!! So this will be a relatively short post, but PRAISE GOD i actually got to post!! The staff computer is REALLY REALLY REALLY slow, and its dial-up, which makes it even worse!!

I love yall so much and I miss you all a ton!! I hate not getting to talk to everyone whenever I want, but you all know that I love you!! We might actually get to go to church tomorrow which will be AWESOME!! we'd end up stealing one of the staff members cars and then driving an HOUR to a church!! WOW!!

(SUMMER, BEFORE I FORGET, I NEED YOUR ADDRESS!!!)

I tried to upload some pictures from my NEW AWESOME DIGITAL CAMERA just now, but the connection is just way too slow, and today was my 12 hour day, so i'm pretty exhausted...
ill try again later! ive got some awesome pics from the past week!!
i wish you could be here...

LOVE!!!

(I miss you, David!)

Camp Address

Okay! So I told a few people that I would post my camp address here for a short time and then delete it, but I figured (as did my dad) that I have pictures of myself up here, and adding a LOCATION would NOT be the best of ideas!
Therefore!
I'm going to email my camp address to everyone that I have, and if you don't get it, email Mr. Tyler or my mom and get it from one of them! (Sorry Mr. Tyler and Mama!! I know I just kinda put y'all on the spot!! I LOVE Y'ALL!!)
So that's the update. Now. I haven't slept in almost 36 hours, so I'm gonna go do that for a few hours before I have to wake up to get on the plane tomorrow!!

BY THE WAY!!
I am officially registered for classes at KSU now!! WOO! I'm registered for 14 hours fall semester... my classes include Econ, Psychology, Math Modeling (yes, Doug, that is what you call the "dumb" math class... oh well!!), my KSU freshman class, and a required PE class type thing that sounds like a lot of fun!! So there!! (oh yeah, and NO FRIDAY CLASSES!!! WOOOOO!!!)

Love Y'all!!

So I'm litterally running out the door to head to Kennesaw State for orientation today... it starts at 8:15 and ends around 3. They don't actually know that I'm coming today because no one will TALK to me... so I'm just kind of showing up...
After orientation, I'm gonna meet my daddy and step mom to spend a few last minutes with them. Woo! (that was not a sarcastic "woo," fyi)
Then mom and I are gonna spend the night at my grandma's house since it is closer to the airport...
And the real kicker?
I just pulled an all nighter... go me!
I definately didnt start packing until 10!!
Gotta go!!

*morgan

thanks, natalie and doug for stayin up with me!

I LOVE EVERYONE and ill update when I can!!
Let's go to MONTANA!!!

MONTANA BOUND!

So! It's official... I'm going to Montana Saturday morning at 7am. We finally booked the ticket... (yeah, we were pushing it, i know!) I'm SO excited about going, and a little excited about leaving Washington for a while! I realized today that I don't have a digital camera. Yeah, strange realization, I know... the reason this came upon me so suddenly was because I realized that I would no longer be able to post pictures! (The pictures from the last blog were off of my mom's camera... which she won't let me take... *pout*) I'm hoping someone at the camp will have one that they will be willing to let me use and post pictures... But if not, it will be a very picture-free summer! Oh well, I'll just have to use my increadibly extensive vocabulary and PAINT the pictures for you!! :)

Natalie, Douglas, Erich, and I are planning on going to Six Flags tomorrow! I'm SO excited! I've been wanting to go for MONTHS now, and it's happening! It's really happening!! haha... We have hung out a lot the past couple of days... Huddle House at 1 am... movies at 2... Augusta for no reason at 12... It's been a lot of fun (even though I keep falling asleep! haha)... I'm really gonna miss everyone when I leave, but that's what letters (and blogs) are for, right??

Today is my REAL last day of work, even though I thought I quit 3 weeks ago, so I'd better go get ready for that... ugh. Oh well!!

Have a great day!!

Graduation and New Blogging Skills!!!

So I've decided I'm gonna try to be brave and go ahead and try out my picture posting skills!! Thanks, Jennifer! You're the best!!

Following the Herd...

Hey everyone!!
So I figured I'd jump on the bandwagon and get my own blog!!
Besides, I really want to get away from myspace, and a lot of the people that I love are here anyway!!
As soon as I figure out how to post pictures and things on here, I'll start doing that!
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Love y'all!!
