Mission Trip

Here it is, the day before the mission trip has finally arrived. Wow, it's 11:00 and I haven't even started packing yet. That's fine, I can just sleep on the way up there I guess. Anyway, I'm going to be leaving tomorrow at 7:00 AM and arriving sometime next Saturday around 5:00 PM. Some people tell me I'll have a good time, and I really hope they're right. After all, it will be a whole week's worth of whatever it's going to end up being, and thus I pray for it to be enjoyable. Supposedly someone is going to be posting daily on the Mission Trip Website. There's also a place for you to contact me while I'm on the mission, like send me a good luck e-mail or profess your undying love for me. Either way, I'd love to hear from you. I'll have my mother's cell phone and I just might call some of you during my absence. According to my sources I'll have about an hour every night to do so. Well, wish me luck. I shall miss the lot of you. Well, maybe not Trevor because he was mean to me today. I sure hope I didn't forget anything.

Say It Isn't So

Well, the campaign came and went: it came with promise, and went with failure. Of course, I do know that it is possible to beat it, and when I come home from the mission trip, it's going to happen. The Garage Sale also came and went, but I'm just plain glad it's over. Of course, we will eventually have to do something with all that stuff in the garage. It really wasn't that bad since I had company. Ross came, and so did Trevor who brought Mairead. I love Mairead, she's so cute and so sweet. She's even pretty clever. She drew a picture of me, which I'm going to do my best to get on the blog, all I have to do is find a scanner... coughRosscough. I went to see Ross's play today: Cinderella. It wasn't absolutely awful, but I really didn't like it. By the end of the performance I hoped a random stage light would come crashing down on Cinderella... actually it was more like as soon as she started to sing. Anyway, don't go see it. It's definitely not worth the ten dollars the evil ones will try to collect from you. Although, I did get a kick out of their inability to get the curtain down during the one of the scene changes.

OOT Campaign

Well, I'm posting this early in the morning because I'm stupid and have decided to just not go to bed. Not the brightest idea since I've got garage sale stuff to do today, but oh well. I'm sure I'll survive. It's summer, I'll catch up on my sleep eventually. Speaking of which, I'm going to be pulling an all-nighter again sometime next week because of my Ocarina of Time Campaign, as I have chosen to dub it. So far I've gotten Talley and Ross to agree to help me. Talley's free to bring Lairen, the more the better. I asked Jared, but he'll have to "see how he's feeling" next week when we decide to do it. I may have asked Trevor, but I can't really remember. So Trevor, if I haven't asked you yet, feel free to join us. I'd invite Scott, but he told me he hated me today so I think I'll just not do that. Then I could invite Sarah Williams, but I don't know if she'll contribute as much as I'd like. Either way, I've already recruited Rachel to be in charge of refreshments and all the random things we need. I guess she's kind of the go-pher. I'm really hoping this works out well. I have to talk to everyone and figure out what day would be the most opportune to take on the task, and I still have to ask my mother when it's OK. Hopefully I'll be able to pick a day in which my father's out of town allowing my companions and me to play downstairs in the living room. Well, wish me luck on my endeavor.
