hey guys, i miss you...
well we just got backfrom this place called YMCA Greenhill: we had fun, a little too windy and cold, but for the most part good.... we did group training... we did orienteering, archery with crazy games like robin hood... we built a raft( out of logs, and rope and barrels, and had to get five people to balance on it- we had to go out in the freezing water , and paddle a bit and turn around cause it was soo windy) and got soo muddy, then freezing when we had to get off the raft in the water... but it was good... we also got to share our testimonies, it was a good time to sit and get to know everyone... we are all getting very close... i already have some best friends,
probably my closest is Anna... we are room mates and really help each other out... i wish i was more longwinded, but i am tired and dirty so i will see you later
* we have many different nationalities here... Some more Canadians... Australia, Minnesota, Isreal, California US, Ireland, Norway, Pensylvania, New Hampshire, and many more...
hey guys.... miss you lots... its going really great here.. we have had some challenges already but none we couldn't weather, including the weather, haha... that corniness was for dad... miss you... but as we talked and gave testimonies, i realized something really amazing, that we as a group have become so tightly knit already, that although i miss you guys, i'm not sad... i have a best friend Anna that i have known for 5 days... i have an awesome guy friend that is almost if not funnier than Aaron, dont tell him that ( and no MOM he's too young, and taken, haha)... we have formed quickly into a community, taking care of each other ...helping each other whenever possible...its been an amazing experience already, i cant wait for more... we are starting schooling within a couple days, so im excited to see how it is... the staff also have this cool thing set up, where we have a ONE on ONE to talk with if we need guidance, like a mentor.... very cool... so thats all for now.... love you lots
