Blog?

I've always been told I think way too much, and for the amount of thoughts that run through my head, I don't ever share enough of them. Well that's just me. I don't open up to anybody who I don't trust completely, and even then, my thoughts just don't translate into words very well. So I'm trying this whole "blog thing" out to see if I like it or not. So who knows? Most definitely not I! (but then again... what do I know?)

A lot has been happening in my life in the past few months. A lot has changed, but through it all some things have stayed constant (Mr. Amadio... I'm using a physics word even on Christmas break!!), one of those being my God. As everything is changing around me, I often feel like a leaf in the middle of a hurricane. Just a teenage girl who has no say-so in the world. Throughout it all, the high school filled drama and the like, my God is ever-present. No matter what is going on in the life of me, God is there. He wraps me in his arms and never leaves my side.

One of my dreams ever since I started going to camp three summers ago was to be able to work there one time. I was a measly fourteen year old then, who had NO idea what I wanted to do with my life. I just dreamt (is that a word?? I thought it was but I'm getting a red squiggly line... hmmmm) of working at Cho-Yeh. Well that dream came true. Next summer I'll be a part of Work Crew, spending three full weeks in the wonderful Livingston, Texas. I know this is what God wants me doing. I dunno what he wants me doing with the rest of my life (although I wish this would become clear before college..) but I know camp is where I need to be. I honestly can't wait. Super stoked!

Tomorrow is Christmas Eve, which means the Holiday craziness will be in full swing. It's just my parents and Kole who'll be together this Christmas (well, and my puppy :)) Everybody else is up in Iowa or Michigan, facing the dreaded horrid winter weather (while Texas is in the 70's!) but getting to spend time together. I wish we could be there with them. Christmas in Texas next year, I really hope.

That's all for now. I'm kinda liking this "blog thing" so we'll see how it goes. Merry Christmas everybody
