    I always secretly wanted one of those STAFF t-shirts...

    That's right... after years of plans falling through, I'm finally going to Creation!!! And I'm volunteering!! I have to thank my friend for that wonderful gesture. For although I didn't really plan on going in the begininning, I began to realize what I'd miss by not serving. So, once again, thank you for signing me up.. I have a feeling I'll be even more grateful once I get out there. It turns out Alexandra and I have the SAME EXACT shifts, too. I think they saw we were sisters and figured things would work out best that way :) Our job, which is in the Staff Office, will involve checking in staff members and answering any questions the staff may have. haha, I'll basically have to make sure I stay on top of things for that one. I'll have to admit that I was slightly disappointed that I won't be more involved in any backstage sort of activities (the staff office is as far away from the stage areas as you can get), but I keep reminding myself that there's a reason for everything--even in our specific assignments. And it's only 4 1/2 hours everyday, so the rest of the time is completely ours.. and paid for.

    Creation '09... here I come!

    Today's Accomplishments:

    Decluttered my room of my art supplies, once and for all.

    Soaked up the sun on my front lawn--only to blind passers-by with my whiteness.

    Didn't have those same passers-by call an ambulance as I lay with my eyes closed and arms out on the grass.

    Enjoyed myself on the grass.

    Identified a swimming goat in the clouds.

    Had a large spider crawl up my foot... and I DIDN'T scream.
    (jumped up frantically shaking my leg around instead)

    Diced 2 onions shedding only one tear.

    Ate a whole jar of garden salsa.

    *bows*

    more amazing feats to follow.

    So did I mention I'm graduating today?

    Granted, it's CCM, not a 4 year college graduation. But first of all, think of it.. how often do people get to have TWO college graduations? And how often do people fall in love with their local county college? Maybe I'm silly. Maybe I'm too sentimental for my own good... but how I'll miss that place. Not just the classrooms, halls, and tree lined campus grounds, it's the memories these places have held for me these past two years. How was I to know that when I first stepped foot in that place, the cafeteria would become more than a cafeteria? That the student center would become more than a student center? Little did I know it would become the cafeteria where I spoke to Juan-who-made-my-quiznos-veggie-sandwiches-and-whom-I-would-pray-for-daily; it would be that table in the corner where I would sip tea and have a four hour conversation sharing my faith in God; it would be the CHall classrooms where I would help lead CCF meetings and have some people hear the gospel for the very first time; the room where Tom and Matt made pivitol decisions to give themselves to Christ; the vending machine where two oatmeal snacks were pushed out instead of one which, in a crazy way, resulted in an invitation extended for an outreach; it would become the student center where we would distribute free coffee and offer prayer and reach out to lost people; it would become the school that God used in my life to teach me more than academics, to help me work on keeping up more than my gpa. Every classroom, every face, every conversation... I will keep it in my heart forever.

    I wasn't going to go to this graduation, originally. I wasn't even excited about it when I decided to.

    I'm so glad I changed my mind.
