packunpackinging

yep.  packunpackinging.  i'm trying to do unpacking right in the middle of packing.  you might get that later.  it's the only word i could come up with to describe the craziness of trying to unpack from college life and at the same time pack for 3 months on an island.  school is DONE, i'm spending the last few days with family and jenny, and then i'm outta here!

Things i'm not taking:
- my TV
- my super nice chair
- procrastination
- remote controlled helicopter (it's sad...but i'm afraid it'll break)

Things i AM taking:
-snow globe
-calvin and hobbes comic books
- every charger imaginable
- every Bible i've ever owned! (the more the merrier)

the last night at mt. lebanon was great.  we spent most of practice learning a new song called "Sing" by Sanctus Real and we could have watered it down but we didn't and it was incredibly tough on every aspect of the praise band to learn all these intricate parts in an hour, but we pulled it together and it was amazing.  Those kids are amazing.  Then they all suprised me with cookies and a cookie cake, and julian gave me a little DOPEY from the seven dwarfs stuffed guy that i will keep with me ALL summer.  

other random things to note:  
-my hair is the shortest it's been since 8th grade.  
-i can't wait to get down there and buy a croquet set and a badminton set.  
-i can't wait to get to the OBX and be a part of what God's doing out there.  
-i can't wait to get back to be a part of the Stone Bridge Travelers Rest church start!
- i can't wait till tomorrow to go kayaking with my dad.  
-i can't wait to see jenny on saturday.  
-waiting and anticipation is half the fun of anything!  like Christmas!
