Last round Tomorrow ends the days of summer. Tomorrow we go back to school for metrocards. Although technically classes don’t start till the 13th, it’s finally time to start settling down. This whole summer, a lot has changed. The beginning felt like the end of an era; a lot of the people who I’ve comeContinueContinue reading “(59th) Day of Summer”

Breathing Room School is supposed to start officially this coming Wednesday, but since I only have to be in school for two hours, it’s like not going to school at all. My Sociology class is cancelled this week which means I won’t be having class again until next Thursday, so guess what I’m NOT doing!ContinueContinue reading “(58th) Day of Summer”

Perfect mixture I didn’t get up til 12 today, because my room was so nicely lit and so comfortable that I just ended up staying in my bed for hours. Anyways, half our EM went crabbing in Long Island today. I decided to stay home and get some work done. I am close to finishContinueContinue reading “(57th) Day of Summer”

IHOP I finally got around to taking my permit test today with Kim Chin. After all this stalling, I realized that the fee I had to pay at my age was actually more than what I would’ve paid if I took it at 16. Fail. We got there at 8:30 because that was the timeContinueContinue reading “(56th) Day of Summer”

Back on track I got back from Seekers Leadership Conference yesterday and knocked out at 2AM cause I was pretty tired. The past three days have really been fun and I am excited for the coming year. It’s so different from last year, when the whole team was there and it felt like we hadContinueContinue reading “(55th) Day of Summer”

Changing me, and changing you I think tonight was probably the first time we got a group of 10+ people inside our house, and man is our house not suited for gatherings of such! I think if we utilize it correctly though, we should have enough space to fit 20 people inside our house comfortably.ContinueContinue reading “(54th) Day of Summer”

Books, books, and more books Now that I am officially done with having to get up early for work, I have to hit the books and catch up on all the stuff I was supposed to do over the summer. It’s funny to think about how I started my AP assignments back in June becauseContinueContinue reading “(53rd) Day of Summer”

“You got brinner? Damn Turkledawg!” My summer working period has come to an end. Well, sort of. Next week is Leadership Conference, and then I still have to do assignments, write papers, and do my projects. We ended VBS today, and although the week has been really hectic, it has been a fun ride. NowContinueContinue reading “(52nd) Day of Summer”

God, prove me wrong I repeatedly asked God that today. Today we presented the Gospel to the kids at VBC, and to be honest I was really uncertain of the day. Each day at Summer Day Camp, when I noticed the kids’ lack of interest in the message, it pushes the buttons in my heartContinueContinue reading “(51st) Day of Summer”

Last timeTonight will most likely be the last night the Seekers crew hangs out for a long time to come. By this weekend many of us will have started college. It has really been an adventurous summer with these guys. Obviously not the type of adventure I wanted for myself, but there’s a certain comfortContinueContinue reading “(50th) Day of Summer”
