So much has happened over the past few days, and I've so little time to say it. Just came back from con camp and I'm leaving for ATC tomorrow. Lots of stuff to be settled, but at the same time, I don't want the memories to fade away.

It's only been a couple of hours after con camp, and I miss it already. The practices with the band, the fun we had from the company all the way to the three days of camp itself - facilitating and playing the keyboard (which still was sadly lacking in skill, the people I've met), realising how much I actually love my godsisters and God - the entire experience I'll never forget. Con camp wasn't just for the teens. I'm sure the facilitators and youth catechists all had a wonderful experience too. Thank you God for everything. I really don't want to let go, and in some ways I don't have to. People have asked me to join SALT, and I'm considering but I really don't know. My reasons for not wanting to join it initially are still there, and yet I don't want to miss out. This is a chance for me to stay at that level of connection I'm feeling with Him now. Maybe you could call it ambivalence.

ATC tomorrow is, for my part still somewhat messy. I haven't had the time to iron things out. I don't know what's going to happen, but I'll pray it'll turn out alright. I've to admit I never really was an outdoor person, so I never liked ATC that much either. But then this camp isn't for me, it's for the cadets so I've got to tell myself that. It's just, I'm so tired.

Had a haircut today and it turned out horrible. It's totally fugly la.

NUSIS. I shot a 542, Irvis 533 and Keith 525. We won team 2nd with 1600 points, losing to MJC by only 10 points. Didn't attend the prize presentation because I was away at con camp. I only regret having an 86 series, which was a waste. The other 5 series were all above 90 except for one 89. 550 for nationals here I come.


Still thinking about con camp. Thank you Lord again.

So You Would Come
Before the world began
You were on His mind
And every tear you cry
Is precious in His eyes
Because of His great love
He gave His only Son
Everything was done
So you would come
Nothing you can do
Could make Him love you more
And nothing that you've done
Could make Him close the door
Because of His great love
He gave His only Son
Everything was done
So you would come
Come to the Father
Though your gift is small
Broken hearts, broken lives
He will take them all
The power of the Word
The power of His blood
Everything was done
So you would come
