Random picture that has nothing to do with the post below...
Once again, I ditched my blog for two months while I worked at camp. But that’s okay, because I’m back now.
Camp was… hard this year. I had some problems with some things but I’ve let that all go now. There is no use living in the past. While I say that, there were some really good things that came out of this summer. I learned a lot more about having a true servant’s heart and putting others before yourself. I made some new friends at various churches, which is really cool. There are now a good number of churches I could just randomly show up at and know at least one person there! And, I met this lovely girl, who’s absolute class. So, weighing the positives and the negatives… it was a fantastic summer!
Some bad news… I think I’m officially quitting Project 365. As fun as it was, it was really hard for me to keep it up. Maybe I will try it again next year, or at some other point in my life. I was able to learn some things though. I learned how hard it is to actually post a blog post every single day. I also learned a good bit about photography and how to take better pictures.
After camp I traveled up to Dayton to stay with some good friends and work at a youth event for a few days at the East Dayton Christian Church. It was a great time and I loved every minute of it!
After that I stayed at home for a couple days then moved into school on the following Saturday. It’s conditioning week for the soccer team. Conditioning week and I… well, it’s a love-hate relationship. I love to hate it. It’s only been a day and a half and I’m already extremely sore. I know my body though and I know I just have to power through tonight and maybe tomorrow morning before my body starts to compensate. I am happy where I’m at physically though. The first run on Monday morning was better than my best time last year which I did at the end of the week. And this morning I ran better than yesterday despite being crazy sore. So I’m happy.
Well that was my summer in a nutshell… an extremely small nutshell.
(p.s. I took that picture for my friend Corinne Hodnett… even though it isn’t spelled the exact same)
