No. No. I will not fail at blogging. I know it's only been five days since I blogged last, but I have a serious history of having good intentions and then FAILING. I shall be a regular blogger, I tell you! I will not let this blog flop. No way, no how.
Today is a Wednesday, which, for my entire high school career, has meant that it has been a very crazy day. I went to co-op today, until 3:30. During lunch, Tim (who was dressed as Batman because of a Spanish presentation he had given the last period), Scott, Erin, and I walked to the wonderfully magical trail that we call Narnia. We didn't go very far into the trail, because we were short on time. But we plopped, and had a picnic. Tim and Scott and I used to have adventures in Narnia all the time a couple of years ago. It was like the good ole days!
After co-op, I went to Tim's house, which I'd say happens about 90% of the time on Wednesday afternoons, during the gap between co-op and Orbit. Tim, Scott, Gloria (Scott's friend who I just met today!) and I watched the Truman Show. Nope, it's not a show. It is, in fact, a movie about a show. An incredibly fantastic movie, might I add. Sadly (no, seriously.), we didn't get to finish it before heading off to church.
Tonight was a pretty big night at Orbit. Mike, our awesome youth group leader and friend, announced to everyone that he would be leaving St. Andrews. I had already heard the news, but it was still pretty hard to hear. We love Mike. He's so genuine, and he cares so much about the people around him. He's really had an impact on a lot of the people at our church. And, yeah, I'm secretly happy that I got to have him basically up until I graduate, but I'm mainly sad for the younger 6th or 7th grade kids. I know that God will provide, and that whoever comes along eventually to replace Mike will likely be fantastic. But it's just hard, because there's no denying that there's no one like Mike.
I hadn't really gotten a chance to hear from Mike himself about everything until tonight, and after hearing what he had to say, I wholeheartedly believe that this is what is best. Even though he doesn't have a plan from here on out, I could see that he has an incredible peace about it.
Also, Gracie, my dear old friend, came to youth group tonight! She's recently switched churches, and she seems to love it there, which is great, but it sure did make me happy to see her back at St. Andrews.
I have a killer US History test tomorrow. I have literally been studying for this test for 2 weeks, and I still don't feel ready. Oh my goodness gracious, why am I blogging? I should be studying! Wait. No. Blogging is important! I want to remember the little things in my life. Haha.
Well, I'm off to study even more. I'm doomed.
