Major Update!

Wow! Its been like almost 2 months since I've posted! I've been so occupied with things!
Well, I've started grade 12, and its a heck a lot easier than I thought it would be! I mean, I'm already doing January work! My life went from one extreme to another, 2 years of nothing really except school, and then this year, anything but almost no school. Its ridiculous! I mean I don't mind lacking school to do, its a nice change, but I've been so bored! =P The past week or so, I literally was out of school to do because I was waiting for my book "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" by Mark Twain, to come in the mail. But I'm still busy.

I'm started my driving lessons with Valley Driving School! I really like it! My instructor is awesome, and even with just one lesson, I was already driving on the main roads! =D It was awesome! Except, I do need work on some stuff, such as stopping at the stop signs (I tend to stop to suddenly, so I end up jolting the car, which isn't much fun.), then I was getting to comfortable with the speed =P, so I was kinda going to fast around the corners (I was a little freaked out.), and then when he got me to drive home, I got to the drive way and almost went through the garage door =P. BUT! I didn't! I stopped and parked just fine. =P So I'm looking forward to my next lesson on Tuesday, he said he's gonna get me to start driving on harder roads.

I'm on two worship teams this year at church. I was accepted as a synth player on the Sunday morning worship team, and then I'm a singer and keyboardist on one of the youth worship teams. Unfortunately though, I was put on a different team that before. I was so looking forward to my last year playing/worshiping with my old worship leader and the team before I graduate, but it seems God has a different plan for me. I'm still getting used to being on the other team though. I miss my old team, and I feel like I'm not getting the leadership I need or anything I had before. The first week was a bit chaotic, I personally was anxious and stressed out just because I felt like the stage was too crowded, and we didn't pray before we started which would have made a huge difference... But I think I'm just going to have to lay off for a while and let the new worship leader get comfortable in his position, and so on. I'm just still trying to figure out why God chose this for me..... But I know God has a good reason for this.

I'm really enjoying youth this year though! I feel like I'm sorta fitting in better, and I feel (I guess) more wanted? I dunno, but I feel like I have new confidence and attitude towards it. I guess the fact that I have time for it, makes a huge difference too. I'm enjoying the people there, and the events and everything. =) I dunno, I guess I feel more comfortable than I used to.

Sunday school was amazing this week! I don't usually go to Sunday school, but this week I kind of had to since I had to be at the church for an early meeting. If you have time look up the video "How Great is Our God" by Louis Giglio! Its absolutely mind blowing! And the worship and the sermon for the Sunday morning service was great too! It was just a great morning of sermons, prayer, and worship! =)

I got to see my awesome Wejefumas again today! It was great seeing them! Unfortunately though, 2 1/2 hours is not very long... So we didn't get to do too much together. But we'll have to get together again soon anyways!

OH! And my Thanksgiving was good too! I got to visit with my grandma, uncle mark, and my older cousin stephanie whom I do not get to see very often. It was great see them all again! We had lots of food, and I got to have a nice walk/talk with my cousin in the beautiful fall weather.

On Thanksgiving day though. I went to my youth group's traditional Thanksgiving football game! It was awesome! I started off with the fun, touch football game with the girls. Then once they decided they were done, I went over and tried playing some tackle football with the guys and some of the girls. It was great! But it was raining a lot, so the grass was really wet and slippery. So I didn't managed to tackle anyone, but I managed to catch the ball once! =D It was hard though, because since the grass was so slippery, I'd try running, and I'd be sliding or slipping everywhere. But it was still lots of fun!

Anyways, I better go.... Gotta run my chinchilla and do some other stuff.

Hope whoever reads this had a great Thanksgiving and is enjoying the fall weather!

God Bless! <3
