Day 120: Give and RECEIVE

Today was awesome. Period.


































Just kidding, I'll explain:
In the morning (which, by the way is an awesome Paper Route song) we had Old Testament with Catrina; today's class was a bit different. She had us give an artistic take on the minor prophets (Hosea, Joel, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi); everyone pretty much had a blast acting, singing, and laughing our way through our renditions of the books of the Bible. We needed something like that. Afterwards there was chapel, which ended up being more worshipful than expected (but then again, how could it not when you sing With Everything?) we didn't have a message since some of our students and staff were kicking off the Online Open Day at noon. So after having lunch with my awesome Australian friend, Jake, I returned to school for our Personal Leadership Tutorial. We talked mainly about conflicts, physical ones and internal ones. It ended up being quite a deep time where we just connected with each other; that in itself was awesome. I didn't have much time after since we had a band practice for an hour; the thing about our recent practices is we haven't had a single practice with the whole band present. That's not a good thing... but fortunately today we had (almost) all the musos present (musos is the Aussie slang for musicians). We had some amazing progress on the song, and I'm feeling super excited about our performance now. Our guitarist, Michael, did a fantastic job as Music Director; he's gonna own it on Performance Day 2. The only other things accomplished was successfully making spaghetti for the 2nd time (it's amazing how good spaghetti tastes with bacon; Y to the UM!) and I got some work done on my computer. Tomorrow morning is my shift for the Online Open Day, so I'm planning on getting some well needed sleep!

God bless,
Steven
