Hey.
It is sunny now. And all the leaves are changing colours. We are also right beside a lake. The leaves are falling. We all spaced out for quiet time.
This weekend is just so beautiful here. The uncountable stars at night and the many shades of colours in the leaves all around us with a cool breeze and cool water...
God's creation is amazing. I like camping so much. XP...
I found this cool, like, deck thing. I'm gonna go later tonight and just lie there looking at the stars.
Peace out.

I Appear to be a Pack Mule... >.>
So. It is now October and I am finally going to my first C4C event. It's gonna be crazy! I may even get a mohawk. XP...
So... Ya. I am now on the 117 going to school for the purpose of leaving the province. I am very glad that the bus is not packed right now........
A few minutes ago I just carried two sleeping bags, two pillows and one very... VERY stuffed bag to the bus stop. The reason for this is that RL, my housemate, is also going to summit but has class until around 5 today, which is when we are leaving and instead of carrying it around all day he asked me to bring them...
I almost never say no unless there is a legitamate reason like I'm doing something already. I'm always happy to help just that sometimes I help too much..? XP...
So, ya. It's almost summit time!
I'm still kinda sick.... XP and I don't really have any cold medicine, just medicine for a fever... So If I get a fever, I'll get better; and if I don't get a fever, I'll be getting better. XP.......
ttyl.

Awesome Creation
So. Hey.
My cell phone was confiscated Friday night, so I couldn't blog this weekend.
Part of the point of the camping trip is to get away from technology and electronics, but ya. This post is going to be a summary of the trip and I'm gonna start at Friday.
So, I woke up and had to finish choosing songs. Apparently I missed a couple though, but really I had to figure out how to print a document that was on my laptop. I thought emailing it to my computer would ruin the formatting because my laptop was all like older ms word's might not keep the same formatting and the whole point of a large portion of the day Thursday / Friday was formatting the document, so I tried to set up my printer to my laptop... It was taking so long, so while that was happening I also emailed myself and the formatting was fine. This was like 10 minutes after I should have been leaving my house... xP I also hadn't really finished shoving stuff into my bag. I ended up forgetting my towel which is hanging on the back of my door because I never threw it on the pile of stuff I was taking.
So, ya.
We were camping in Gatineau Park by Lac Phillipe. This is the same camping site as two years ago. (This is an annual camping trip for the YF in our church.) So, for the missions trip next week we bought walkie talkies so we were testing them out on the camping trip sometimes. NC is funny.
The first night Pastor DB broke the B string on the guitar... xP It was fine, but there was no B string, so like the chords kinda had a low chord and then a high note. xP
At like 11, we were told to get ready for bed and stuff. The other guys tent was pretty loud... xP There were 5 guys in it and really there wasn't enough room, so JS had to lie on top of them... xP This caused much of the noise. By like 12 almost everyone was making an attempt to go to sleep, except for Pastor DB and TM who were talking quietly at the fire, and the boys tent. They were being quite loud and everyone was telling them to be quiet. Nothing worked until HK, after unzipping her tent, yelled "Boys, if you don't stop talking you're going to be cleaning all the dishes tommorow!" Pastor DB and TM thought she was yelling at them and immediately went to bed. xP It was silent after she yelled. xP
AL gave a cool bible study on Prayer Saturday morning, we went to Mont Cascades (I got burned. xP), there were group activites / competitions which ended in everyone sharing bubbles / smores.
The meals were fine. At sometimes there was a bit too little for everyone, but overall it was fine.
We spent a good portion of our free time playing this game that all the YA have been playing recently. I still have only won once... The game 'Monopoly Deal' is pretty fun, but when you have 7 people playing, the game gets kinda messy. We stayed up until 2 playing yesterday. xP That last game was intense. Here's an online demo if you want to know how to play. http://uk.pogo.com/hotdeploy/uk/promotions/marketing/monopoly-deal/ I bought the game on Tuesday, so I can play it too. xP
Today we (my tent) woke up at 8 and then changed, packed up, ate breakfast, then it was time for church. This year, mostly for the parents who would have to come pick us up and possibly miss church Pastor DB decided to have two services; One in the Park and one back at OCBC. No parents showed up for it though. xP
After we got back to OCBC, I stayed and helped the worship team by doing A/V (all the A/V people were on the camping trip. xP) so I heard the sermon twice. It was about the extraordinary schemes of the devil in our lives. Which is very clear to us because our friend has gone through a lot, but that's all I will say on my blog.
The main reason that having my phone taken away this weekend was troublesome is because I like taking pictures of cool still lifes or landscapes and we were in the Gatineau hills, which are so cool. So, ya... that was annoying, bu t I borrowed SB's camera and CC's camera sometimes.
Aside from all that stuff is only the most amazing point.
I seriously spent at least an hour or so just lying on the ground looking at the stars this weekend. I seriously really like looking at the stars when I am in an area with less light pollution. And there were no clouds. none. It was sooo awesome. Like yesterday I spent at least 20 minutes lying on the ground, at about 1 am (it wasn't that cold last night.), staring at God's amazing creation praying. Like, your creation is so amazing and I can't even take a picture of it or express it in words. I deffinately saw like 5 shooting stars last night.
I'm just really glad that I got to spend this weekend in fellowship with all those guys and soon I'll get to spend a week in New York with some of them.
I'll talk to you later.

"Hey AL. I don't feel I talked to you very much this weekend, but sometimes it takes more then words. Just being together under that sky was fun. ROFL. lol... I don't have a girlfriend."

The Heart Of Worship
Hey. Today I spent the good part of 5 hours or so reading / singing / listening to / reformattiong worship music. I went through at least 70% of the songs on the website. I figured: 1. If I don't know the name of the song, I probably don't know it. 2. If its a christmas song, it's irrelevant. 3. If it has 4 verses, it's too long. 4. If I don't know it, it's not worth trying.
I mean if I chose a new song it would just be me and AL singing... If I choose a song everyone knows, everyone will sing. This is a big thing to me because back in my first year of the camping trip, at the time I hadn't really been to church or really sang too many worship songs, so I really didn't know any. And I like singing, so not knowing any of the words sucked... So most of the songs are Starfield, Chris Tomlin and other stuff like that.
I had the most disgusting thing for lunch today... Like you know how some things are tasty, but when you put them together they are disgusting..? Peanut Butter, Balogna, Curry Powder, Onions, Mustard, and Soy Sauce in a wrap. Honestly disgusting..... So I just ate PB and J after that... xP
CHRI is amazing. Someone else told me they were Christian / asked me if I was today because they heard the radio playing in the backroom. It's actually so cool finding out someone is Christian. Hehe.
So, ya. It appears as though my baptism will be in September.
Ttyl.
