Scarred for Life

This is my first blog post in almost a week! I think that's a new record for me. So this past week at camp, I think I cleaned more than I ever have in my life. I dusted off windowsills and doorframes, swept many, many floors, and then mopped those many, many floors. And I painted the wals of a small cabin. And I cleaned bathrooms, one of which had a dead mouse in the toilet. I made soup with it, it tasted almost as good as Ramen Noodles. Only two interesting things have happened to me this week. First, my computer broke. I dropped ir and now the screen is all black and has bright colors, doesn't do anything except make annoying beepy noises whenever I hit a key, which I did often the other night cuz I was mad at it, so I was pounding on the keys. I thought maybe it eould magically work but nope. So one of the camp staff offered to see me his laptop, which is much nicer than mine was, but I have ot wait until the end of summer to buy it. The other thing, which has left me scarred occurred the other night when we were coming back from the best ice cream place in the world, Wishy's. There are three guys and five girls at camp right now. The three guys were in a truck ahead of us girls in a car. They sped up and were way ahead of us. Well, when we caught up to them, it was quite a sight. The two guys not driving were standing in the truckbed, with their shorts and undergarments pulled down aroud their ankles. The driver of our car put on the brakes because she was laughing so hard and couldn't believe what she was seeing. Neither could I, but I also didn't find it quite as funny. I've been spending so much time reading my Bible, and Purpose Driven Life and Lady in Waiting:Becoming God's Best While Waiting for Mr. Right. A book I recommend to all single Christian ladies :-) Especially those who find it hard to wait on God. I know I'm under that category but I'd like to think I'm getting better with it every day. PDL has also taught me a lot about life and such. Today is my parents' 11th anniversary!! Can you believe it? I can't. Sunday is Father's Day, I haven't bought my dad a card yet, oops. Maybe I'll write him a nice little poem or letter. My brother's in NYC, actually he's on his way home right now, he'll be home at 2 am. Then my dad has to go pick him up from school. I'm 20 and I've NEVER been to NYC. Kinda sad. Oh well, I don't think I'm much of a cityslicker anyway. Country bumpkin all the way. Ok, one thing that's been bugging me, actually the past half-hr, are people who always seem upset. Whethre they're depressed about one thing, or angry at someone, or angry about something that happened, or bummed about this, sad about that. I just want to scream and tell them to get over it! Seriously, your life cannot be that bad. You have Jesus! What could be better? I know, I've had my bad days, but I bounce back, at least I think I do. But others are like that all time, always finding something or someone to complain about. I'm sorry, but a Christian should not tell their own family member they hate them. It's wrong and very un-Christlike and I know I'm not supposed to judge but seriously. Idk. I probably sound hypocritical right now or something. And I just want to say I am not referring to anyone reading this, so please do not get mad at me. I just needed somewhere to vent about it. So I chose here. Anyway, I am sooooo happy to be home. It gets lonely at camp, especially when your puter breaks so your only means of communication is non long-distance phone calls. It is so hard but so far, time seems to be going fast. Oh! Guess what??!! Praise thy Father who art in Heaven! I only need 1400 to come back to Oz now! I am so happy because that's about what I'll make this summer. Yay!!!!!!! I excited. By the way, there is one beautiful lady who promised to come see me before she went to China. I would be a very sad person if she didn't :-( I would be very heartbroken. Just so ya know. Um, I think I'm done ranting and rambling, as I seem to do everytime. Guess that just goes to show how random and completely arbitrary my thoughts are. Thank you for tuning in tonight to Dee's blog. Stay tuned for the next exciting post, which will not occur for quite some time. Goodnight. And Goodluck.

P.S. I dunno, I wanted to put something inspirational here but nothing comes to mind.
Be cool. Stay in school.
