so, i just read my last post and realized that i didn't actually put how many days until i was leaving oregon...hahaha! i'm an idiot, and for some reason, they're letting me be a senior in college...wow.
anyways, i'm getting ready to go into my last week of camp, and then i have 1 week at home and then i fly to illinois and drive to iowa to hang with emily, and then we're driving to virginia for school. i'm definitely pumped for this next school year. it isn't going to be as hard to leave this year...i'm kind of sad that i didn't get more time with my friends, but i know that there is a reason that God put me at canyonview camp this summer instead of being at home and hanging with my friends and working at a better paying job. maybe it was just so these people could minister to me in ways that they could not even imagine. maybe it was to teach me something that i wasn't learning in any other way. who knows right now. all i know is that i am going to be really sad to leave the canyon for the year. not being on staff is not going to be easy.
anyways, i should probably be going. i have to take my asthma medicine, and then i'm going to go to bed because i'm uber tired because i didn't sleep much last night because i was finishing my camper letters and i got done late. anyways, i'll write more about my entire summer when i'm completely done. God is amazing. i hope you all know the wonderful joy that i know when i think about God. He is amazing and i can't believe that He loves me as much as He does. Why would someone love me that much? i might just not ever know the answer to that question.
EDIT: October, 2006
so, at this point, i definitely know why God had me at canyonview. no lies. He had to bring me to a place where i could hear His voice above what i wanted in my own life. nursing isn't for me and because i worked at canyonview this summer, i was able to hear Him tell me that i was headed in the wrong direction.

the countdown begins...
officially, i have 2 weeks left until i'm done at camp.
i'm leaving oregon in days and hanging out with emily in iowa and maybe virginia beach for a couple days.
and then school starts shortly after that.
it's insane to think about everything.

amazing week
this past week at camp was pretty much amazing. i'm definitely going to miss the mass amounts of time off, but i think i can handle it...at least, i hope! anyways, next week is going to be a pretty rude awakening, but i know we can handle it. i should be heading off to bed now. i'll maybe be writing something else next weekend...
