lets all agree on the fact that I have the best roommate of all time. k,thanks
oh how i love sitting outside class, realizing Paul is in the class before me, creeping him and laughing our heads off. yea, he loves us.
Spent the night having the worst time in orchestra, crying and ready to punch that old man in the pants, but then went to having the most amazing time cleaning the dorm for inspection with the girls. Who knew that cleaning windows could be so theraputic?
man, I love dorm 12!

Started new job today
Wednesday is just work day.
I work at the church in the morning, then in recruitment at night.
But student rep is such a sweet job! Just call people and tell them about Redeemer, talked to this one girl who goes to Markville for like, 45 minutes today, and another girl who goes to summit, so it was pretty sweet.
paid 10 bucks and hour to drink pop, call people, and tell them about Redeemer, sweet deal. hahaha
I think im going to take up another night to.

Today was so good!
Church was pretty good.
CITB was amazing! worship was just so good. and the speaker really got me thinking about how I really connect with God.
But then...Tamarrah called and wanted to do worship, and we were planning on it anyways. Jordan ended up coming too and called other people to come.
Paul and Sam came over and started with us. and frig, it was so amazing. then Sam had to go but Lenny came and then Derek.
It was just so good to worship with them. They all love God so much, and it just felt comfortable worshiping them right from the start :)
we're gonna make it a weekly thing probably.
man, God is good!
definate answered prayer!

"come to me, all who are weary.
come find rest in me.
You can lay your yoke upon me,
give your burdens to me,
you don't have to carry them anymore."
Thanks, God

such a fantastic weekend! So much to be thankful for!
It has been the best two weekends!
last weekend, Trevor, Katrina, Matt, and Jo came to get us at Redeemer and we got free tickets to Chris Tomlin. :)
This weekend, mom came to pick us up, and we went to TACF. Just walking into their youth, the tangiable presence of God was so thick. I was just on my knees when I walked in there.
Then SNW, I was two and a half hours late. but got there in time for worship, and FRIG. that really is what it sounds like when Heaven comes down!!!!! Such an amazing glimpse of heaven this weekend!
and this is what is sounds like when we sing heavens song.
this is what it feels like when heaven comes down
and this is what it looks like when God is all around
LET IT COME!!!

I have the most wonderful religion prof ever!
I missed class on Wednesday, emailed him about it. He gives me an extension on my paper.
Wonderful man!
Most awkward dorm dinner last night, a dorm dinner is when another dorm comes over, or you go over to their house. Hosts make dinner, guests make desert and do the dishes. So we had dorm one over they tell us, 'we'll come over at 5:30' 6:15 comes along and they finally show up, and instead of their dorm of eight, they bring 12 guys. Huge guys, who eat a lot. Good thing we made 4 bags of speghatti, 6 cans of sauce, 3 boxes of meatballs, 3 caesar salads, and 2 huge loaves of garlic bread. Good thing. lol
But these guys were pretty awesome, some of them pretty rude, but for the most part, it was a great time. Except for that guy who called me a bitch. he wasn't very nice.
So I get to write my english paper today. Due at 12 midnight. Then go onto finishing Religion paper, now due on Monday.
But I missed jazz today cause of religion make up class. :/
On the bright side though, the first Church in the Box is this Sunday! :):)

So I'm home for the weekend.
It pretty much sucks.
I just want to be at camp right now.
I can't imagine being in Markham all summer. Sucks so much.
But God is doing some awesome stuff at camp! It's freaking awesome.
So now I just want to get back so I can sleep in my bed that consists of two mattresses, two sleeping bags, and one foam mat under my sheet, with five blankets, two pillows, and one body pillow. covered by my bug net and surrounded by pictures of the most wonderful people in the world. I miss my mansion. I miss singing grace and shaking it during dessert. I miss having church everyday and getting sweaty for Jesus. I miss my friends and the family we are.
I've only been gone for two days, and I hate it. I shouldn't have come home this weekend. But I'll be back tomorrow! :)

I'm leaving for camp this week, not sure what day yet, but soon! I feel like it isn't real, this year has gone by so super fast its insane. I can't believe I'm done high school, I can't believe I'm going to university in the fall, I can't believe I'm heading up to camp for my last summer, I can't believe how far God has brought me.
Thinking back to my first year in high school, I was a Christian, I prayed, I went to church. But I only prayed when I wanted to, I only called on God when I was in a mad state. To look back and see how much I have grown, blows my mind.
I have always heard in people testimonies "God was rewiring me, changing me from the inside out" And I always thought, "Why wont he do that to me?" well this year, he did. Everything about me changed. From praying when it was convinent for me, to being in constant conversation with a living, breathing, powerful God. From reading my Bible when I heard about a verse that is encouraging or interesting, to pretty much having the Bible as the only book I read, and not on ocassion, it no longer sits on my book shelf, but right beside my bed, I carry it around, read it on the bus, the subway, in class, anywhere and everywhere I can. From memorizing verses because I had to for quizzing, to memorizing so I have a strong weapon to use when the enemy attacks. From spending my Friday nights at a party in someone's basement, to a party in my spirit, worshiping in the Sherman's basement. From seeking desires of this world to seeking the face of my father.
I can't even wrap my head around how far he has brought me.
Camp is tomorrow, TOMORROW!!!! Just found out from my grandpa that we're leaving at 8 am. SO EARLY! I woke up today at 2! hahahaha
I can't freaking wait! omgshhhhhh. God is going to BLOW UP!!!

I wish I made a bigger impact.
Last day of high school tomorrow, scary thought.
But even more scary, how many people could I have helped, talked to, brought to church, stood up for, stood up against, and didn't.
Why did I let the world tell me I shouldn't be myself, that I shouldn't stand up for myself, my life, and my God.
I just let it all pass me by, didn't care about marks, didn't open my eyes to what God has been showing me for the past four years. All those people I could have talked to. Their lives could potentially be different if I had.
High school has been amazing, God has showed me so much, and I don't regret putting my school work on the back burner to move God up to the front. But I do wish that I practiced what I preach more. There isn't Jesus can't do. I know that he wanted to use me for revival at Markham District. But I was scared. Scared of what others would think and how they would respond. But why? What do I have to be ashamed of? Knowing the truth? NO!!
So why did I let myself do this?
This kind of makes me want to go back to grade nine and just tell EVERYONE!
It's easier to start talking to strangers, and work in Jesus somewhere, but the people you have know for most of your lives, so hard, and so scary.
All i want to do is make a difference, not just be a little light, but a big freaking bonfire, burning for Jesus.
If only I had come to this conclusion sooner.
C'mon Jesus, Bring Revival to Markham District High School!
Set the whole school on fire for you, Lord!

Last concert ever was tonight, that was weird. It didn't feel like it was the end.
Duchess gig tomorrow, then, music is over.
3 more days of high school, one exam, grad. done.
scary? yes.
exciting? yes.
nerve wracking? yes.
feels like it's happening? not at all.
I'm not sure I'm ready to leave, and with all the questions surrounding school next year, maybe I'm not.
I really need this whole university thing to work out. So I can register for courses, apply for osap, and go to camp!
Nancy told me today I can for sure come up early! :)
I want to go right after grad, but I'm probably going to need to pack up my room so if my mom moves this summer, it's easier for her, and I should probably wait to see if I'm accepted to university huh?
As scary and final this week is, I'm not even focusing on it, I've just been focusing on God lately, and really reading my Bible. Not that I usually don't, but he's really been revealing things to me this week. And I love that.
