| Well, I finally caught up on sleep after a long week at the fair, but my voice is still not completely back yet. I have been feeling a little bit weird this week... Its a strange feeling like I am excited to leave, but at the same time scared out of my mind. I have all these dumb questions that normal people wouldn't worry about but I am really worried about. I would skip college because I don't want to go...but honestly, I feel like I just need to make myself go so that I can face my fears and realize it isn't that bad. If I didn't go to college and make myself get out of my "redfield bubble," I would be stuck in it forever. I DO NOT want that to happen! My worst fear is getting old realizing that I didn't achieve my full potential in life. Matt and I talked last week about how fun it would be to travel all over the world and run from the mafia and other stuff like that... I want to do something big...maybe not run away from the mafia, but I want to do something where I have to challenge myself and step out from what I'm used to. When I'm 76 years old, I don't want to be sitting at home watching gunsmoke, smoking cigarettes, drinking coffee, and waiting to die. I only hope to be satisfied with the life I lived, and better yet have God be satisfied with the life I lived. What can I do being a kindergarten teacher? I feel like doing that would be giving up and taking the easy route.... I don't even know... There are plenty of kindergarten teachers around. How many people get to smuggle Bibles into countries where they are not allowed? Now that would be the coolest thing to do. Have to be all secrety and stuff. Anway, this is longer than I intended so I'll catch y'all later! | | |

| Hey Everyone! I realize it has been like...forever since I've actually updated, so I am forcing myself to give an "Amy's life update!" I am in Tennessee until Saturday at which point I am coming back home, but only until August 26th when I leave for school. Yay! Tennessee has been fun. I am at Summit right now, and while some of you may know what it is, others may not so I will tell you what it is. Summit is a 2 week camp where you learn about all kinds of good stuff to defend the Biblical Christian worldview and all the things pertaining to it. It has been the time of my life. Sunday, I grudgingly went white water rafting. I didn't wanna do it, and I was really super scared, but I did it. We got on the boat and turns out it was the funnest thing I have ever done in my life! The boat tipped a few times (actually only twice), and the guide was sooo hot. I wish I could go back and spend the whole day just rafting. Fun times. Anyway, I have to get back to class so I'll talk to you all later! | | |
| So my life is pretty great, I can't complain. This evening I went out to Twin Lakes with Michelle and Mark and Jared. We had a blast. We took out the paddle boat and had a bonfire and shot off bottle rockets, etc. Michelle got her truck stuck in the sand too...that was pretty fun. Rachel and I went open airing this afternoon at Wylie too. It was her first time ever so it was fun. We talked to 2 kids and both of them recieved Jesus. Yay God! I am teaching a club this week so Jonathan wouldn't have to send someone else to Redfield, so that has been/will be fun. I'm thinking of going to sleep now, so I hope I wake up early enough to study considering I have not even read through the material. Talk to you all later. Here is a good discussion topic: What is your favorite soup and sandwich? Stupid question, but leave a comment... | | |
