I burn in Leo

so 11:30-3:00 = Lobsterness :)

yesterday I had this brilliant idea to do my internship readings poolside. And it would have been perfect if I would listen to my mom and PUT ON SUNSCREEN. Nope I decided to just get as much sun as I can... well that sure back fired. I am not toasty and can't walk without pain especially upper legs and my back! Oh well it will all fade soon. I never remember how bad sun burns hurt while I am in the sun. (does this sound like sin? We know how to avoid it but in the moment it doesn't seem bad. so if anyone needs a Sunday school life lesson)

Other eventful happenings this week... We had two other volunteers out this week. Victoria Stoller and Mindy Cambell and that was a lot of fun. I learned how to play "spaz or crabs" it is like around the world ping-pong collides with Pool (I didn't do so hot and in turn didn't love my first experience).

Ashley, the other intern and I, offered to give swimming lessons to 2 of the Gateway girls :). Any suggestions on where to start? probably with treading water. possibly floating on their backs. I don't know - it is more for survival and safety than improving on skills.

Last night, Leo high school had a "coffee house" night. Each student in Jazz choir (maybe 20) performed a solo Jazz song. There was some real talent! I really enjoyed the pieces (well most of them).

And getting read for Jr. High girl's camp. Leaving Wednesday. Our cabin is Thessalonica... not really sure what to do with that (I'm not that much of a decorator to begin with I just like to run around and act crazy at camp). AHHH I am also giving my testimony - what an humbling opportunity. I think I am focusing on some main events in my life and bringing out the theme of "getting better or bitter" with God's grace.

well that is long enough for now.
