***ps I am slowly adding in pictures from previous posts! Keep checking backward for some epic captured moments!***
Yay for Fridays! Woke up to the sun shining brightly in my eyes (from sleeping on Star Rock) & FREEZING! I snuck back into my bed for an hour & then returned to Star Rock...because that's where we had our 1st chapel! We sang some worship songs & then we were told to journal about how we want to be/what we want to achieve at the end of this semester & how we were going to do it. It was also a time of reflection & time to simply just spend with the Lord. There's something about it up here...I just feel so much closer & in tune with Him...His creation speaks to me. Looking out over the vast array of deep green trees plastered against the bright blue sky...it's pretty difficult to deny His existence & love. After...I went & took an epic nap while everyone else was in class (no class for me today!) I then went to lunch & after went and read on the deck! It was beautiful! and so successful!
A group of us then went on a walk to The Pines (same place as yesterday I went running) & we picked out some sweet shirts to be screen printed! I got a dark green long sleeve with some majestic deer on the front that says "Oh Deer" (Amanda's idea...so clever...I know...everyone back at campus loved it!) and I also got a gray tank (I'm in LOVE with tanks) that has a cute little teddy bear camping scene! I also purchased some epic postcards! Maybe some of you reading....expect some to come your way? Perhaps... ;)
We returned just in time for dinner...they served lemon punch cake for dessert...probably like my favorite thing ever. Drew then decided to bet me that I couldn't read to pages 60 by tonight in one of the books we are assigned (midnight...aka the goal I had set for myself) Quite frankly...I didn't think I could either...but now there was a bet...and I was all in. The loser has to serve as the other's servant for an entire day. So naturally I sprinted off to go read! I found a quiet place in Burn's house with some other girls and things were going GREAT until in walks Drew with a cup of hot chocolate & cake for me! Don't get too excited...it was all in his devious scheme to distract me! And let me tell you...it worked! We all were so distracted and by the time we got him to leave I had lost time! So...we locked all the doors and got to work again! But...Drew...being...Drew... sent in multiple people to come "distract" us! So funny! So I shut myself in Burn's spare bedroom and pushed my way through...and WON!!!! I finished with plenty of time to spare! I'll keep ya posted on how my little servant does ;) hehehehehe.
Had some great talks with people today! Getting to know everyone more and loving it! Tomorrow we're going on a sunset hike in Yosemite! Stoked!
ps...HAPPY HAPPY 19TH BIRTHDAY TO MY BEST FRIEND SAMANTHA FORTNER! woooooo! love you girl! xoxoxoxoxo
