This is simply an update of what's been going on.
School started and after adjusting my schedule to finally fit my own preference, i began to settle in. It truly did put me on a trip to think that i am a senior. Each day after SoundScape, my friends and i walk down the junior hall and deliberately walk through peoples circles just to show them who is king of the school. Yes, that means that despite my new choir teacher, Mr. Angelo, i am still doing SoundScape and Choir. So far so good. It has definitely been a transition year, but luckily Mr. Angelo understands and is making it much easier then it could be. I am very grateful for that. My only "real" classes are College Writing, which is going great, not too bad of a work load. It has challenged me a great amount already. Even as i write this i am analyzing my work immensely.
On the Church side of things, it is going really well. As of now i am trying a new technique of reading the Bible, complements of Josiah Stumbo. I was challenged to read a book of the Bible 50 times before even analyzing it. This has been very difficult for me so far, partly because i am not a very patient person. I decided to start a bit easier and i am reading my way through 2 Peter. Hopefully this makes me a more rounded studier. Theologian if you will. I really feel like my senior year has some purpose. This is the last time i am really going to be able to have conversations with the people at my school. Honestly i feel i am not living like i should. I believe people would ask more questions and challenge why i live the way i live. So that is a stuggle area of my life.
The more buisnessy side of Church, I am in Kevbo's small group that i have been in since 7th grade. I am in Guys Group which i joined about the same time. CRASH, the middle school wednesday night is going strong and i now my small group are 8th graders. WOW! i am really wanting to have them grow this year, so my thoughts have gravitated towards that. I am also now incharge of the middle school webpage. GoToTheLink.com if you get a chance, check it out. This year i am hoping to really develope the site to be as user friendly as possible. God-willing it is used in a way that blesses the people.
I am still working at SilverFalls Creamery. I package goat cheese and i am actaully "Head of Production" so, that has been a blessing and a busy thing as well. Actually right now i am procrastinating working. oops.
I still have my office job that i clean on the weekend out in south salem
I am a backup for Jamba now. it is a complicated story, ask at your own disclosure
I am now in CAYD (Christmas At Your Door) a traveling drama group and music group that goes around this Christmas time. I have rehursals every Tuesday at 7. Fun times.
Anyhow, better get off to work. Those containers won't label themselves.
