For you PRBI Lovers...

I mean those who love PRBI, they started taking out the windows of the guys dorm a couple days ago...Tuesday to be exact. Part of me wanted to cry because I've seen the dorms that way my whole life. The other part of me was excited because they really need renovating...however that is spelled. So, you tell me which emotion won? I'll just tell you I didn't cry. :D I smiled, tried to look back and watch while I was walking on the road. Luckily I didn't change my direction at all, I'm good at walking in a straight line while looking back ;). I'm also good at not thinking before I look behind me. Nothing happened, but it could have. Does anyone have stories when they were younger about looking back at your parents and then walking into a wall? I just remembered that as I was talking. My parents love telling stories like that. I never thought I'd get embarassed by my parents sharing stories about me when I was a baby. But a few weeks ago I remember my parents telling my uncle and aunt a story (I don't remember which one), and I was embarassed! And they're my family, no need to be embarassed...ANYWAY. What a silly thing to blog about...haha.
PRBI, yes, I miss it. I miss it so much! I was doing okay until I saw Jody and Kat at West Ed. Then I missed everything, but I was satisfied, because I didn't have to do homework with Jody. Instead, I could just walk down a busy mall and shop for gifts for people or just look. It was great. We had fun! I wish I could fly up to Regina, I wish I had lots and lots of money. I would fly to Regina, Vancouver, and stay at each place for like 2 weeks! But...I'm only going to Seattle...which is coming up! And boy am I ever pumped! SOOO PUMPED! I'm not going to camp, but I'm working (which seems to be the only other option people give you in a conversation of "So what are you doing this summer, camp, working...what?" Sorry to the people I have done that to. I don't think it's a bad thing, because those are the common things Christian kids do in the summer. Makes sense to include them in the question. Maybe. Ya. Alright. This is how I write in my journal, I come with one topic thinking it will only be like a page but I end up writing 3-5 pages blabbing about other things. I don't erase it, because I think it is in my personality to blab about pointless things. I find it entertaining myself :)
Ashley is in Mexico for those of you who know her. She's doing well by the sounds of it. For the first couple weeks I guess there wasn't much for them to do at the base so they were just playing cards. They are supposed to be doing stuff now, some stuff planned by a guy who was at the YWAM base last year when they went. He's gonna help them find ways to help. So pray that they do find something, that they have somewhere to stay, and that they work together well. They are together everyday for a long time. :) Pray for their friendship to be awesome while they are there, and to continue when they come back. :) And...pray for Mexico! Lots of missionaries are there. My parents went there the two weeks I was gone right? They helped out at a dump. They saw a bunch of kids locked up in a cage while their parents went to work, they saw where these people lived...garbage all around. Anyway, there are many missionaries there, handing out water and...I forget what else they handed out...sandwiches maybe? Anyway, they are trying to help. My parents talked to some Mexicans about it at their resort, and apparently one guy said they shouldn't help them, because if they were really in need they would make the effort. He says they are just lazy, that they could have a house and food if they wanted. Another lady they talked to who has some friends who live at the dump said that they are helping them a great deal by going down there. So, with mixed feelings about it, my parents went. I think all they needed was one person telling them it was good. Their hearts were there. Soo...ya. I admire my parents. I just hope we can start letting our heart poor out to the homeless people we see in Grande Prairie, maybe they are lazy too, but maybe we're doing good handing out water and sandwiches to them to? We could do it...but we don't...how come? Maybe I'll talk to my parents about it...maybe our church could do something...I don't know. Ha, that just sort of came out. I guess I'll be praying, if you want to join me...:) I would love it! Take care everyone. I love you all! :D
