Welp, I'm back, y'all!
I had an epic 3 days on youth camp! I drove (at the wheel, ofc) down to Phillip Island. We hung out a bit, then did a Great Race around Cowes (in Phillip Island). One of the items was to bring back a live seagull, and if you did, you won youth camp (no teams managed it, but we were so close).
Anyhow, we had several bible study sessions throughout the three days, looking at the Story of God - from Creation, the Fall, to Redemption and the Promise. It was pretty good!
I got buried up to my neck in sand and was turned into a sand sculpture - so that was great! I also turned into a five year old at the beach before that and was running around like a maniac. Excellent times!
On the last day we went to a highropes course - which was epiccc!! Why do humans enjoy almost killing ourselves so much? Anyhow, got to help a couple of friends conquer their fear of heights - so that was awesome!
So yeee! 'Twas an epic trip, had a lotta fun, learned a bit about God, and got to hang out with friends! Woot!
Have a wonderful day, everyone!

So funny thing happened
I went driving for the first time in several weeks - which is fun!
It also happened to be SUPER RAINY! Like, it could compete with London rain, it was that bad. Funny thing, it was also my first time driving in the wet. Yay.
I managed not to die, but SOME PERSON pulled out RIGHT IN FRONT OF US as we were driving at 80kph
In the wet
I had to slam on the brakes and swerve into the other lane to avoid t-boning them. Fortunately, there were no cars in the other lane but STILL
PEOPLE THESE DAYS AHHHHHHH
Oh yeah, I'm over halfway though The Shadow Rising! And AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I also wrote another poem just then... so yeee apologies in advance *wince*
SpoilerDreaming
With a light touch, as a feather
white and clean, bright and soft
sweet and smooth, eyes open
to a world full of light.Warm impressions caress,
thoughts spin like pinwheels.
I see so clearly here and yet
all is fuzzy, indistinct.Drifting, like a leaf on the breeze
Hither and thither, this way and that
Thought to thought, memory to memory.
Reality seems distant, within hand’s reach.The sky is blue, now purple, now pink
Shifting colours that blend
Like watercolour, delicate and soft
Bright and vibrant, life-filled.Light fades to grey, bleeding
darker, deeper, darker, deeper
I’m falling, falling, falling
down and down and deeper.Blackness surrounds, slips
closer, creeping and salivating.
Fangs, sharp eyes glittering, claws
tearing at my heart, my mind, my soul.Fears, doubts, voices
Scream, howl, quarrel-
My own voice, screaming
As the water closes over me and-With a breath, I jolt awake
The nightmare now a cold sweat.
I breathe slowly, sit back,
Watching the sunlight grow.OH OH ANNNDD I'M GOING TO YOUTH CAMP ON WEDNESDAY
WHICH IS GONNA BE FUN
WE'RE GONNA LIKE BE ON THE BEACH AND MADE SAND SCULPTURES IF THE WEATHER DOESN'T GO APOCOLYPTIC BUT Y'KNOW IT'S FUN ANYHOW
SO YEAH
HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY, GUYS!!
