I've really been meaning to post for ages. And somehow there's never time, bah. And I was doing so well, there, at the beginning of the month!!
I haven't posted anything "serious" in a while now. Hmmm. Should probably get on that......
Wow, life has been busy lately!!
Last weekend I had the incredible pleasure of meeting Somnite and Anilee -- it was WOOO HOOO exciting -- for the very first time!!! I have to say, guys, you both are EXACTLY what I pictured. Which is a good thing :)
A crazed week of still trying to finish up intense amounts of schoolwork among other pressing matters (application deadlines.... other commitments...plentiful meetings...lots of cleaning....) filled my last few days and as of right now, I am at an annual church assembly, which is pretty exciting -- I was elected the female delegate for my congregation. Today starts Day 2 (and it started bright and early, UGH!) and I have to say, I am positively fascinated by everything that's going on. We are voting and discussing some really major issues here, and I'm finding that I -- even as a youth -- actually have a voice. I'm being treated as an adult instead of like a silly little teenager and I have to say, it's an incredibly exciting and positively terrifying feeling all at once. I've been feeling very naive compared to most of these people and very unqualified to be voting and making these sorts of decisions. And yet, others are trusting me to do so and that responsibility is a little overwhelming!
Kind of funny, isn't it: I've begged and pleaded for eons to be treated like an adult and now that people are finally doing so and taking me seriously, it scares me out of my wits.
Life is confusing. Sheesh.
Well, we are off ISO Wawa....mmmm, cappucino!!!!!

Reminds me about something involving grass, green, and a fence...
Totally not fair, you had seen pictures of both me and Anilee, but had not given out any of yourself.
It's really cool that your church has gotten you as a young (somewhat very young) adult to join into an actually voting/debate thingy like that. My church would never dream of putting someone like that in a council. Ours would most likely form a "youth committee" to keep the "stodgies" away from "something they know nothing about". I want to see a lot more integration like they have out your assemblies!
