Vancouver, oh Vancouver
So tomorrow morning, straight after breakfast I leave for two weeks to participate in local missions in Vancouver. Myself and 12 other students along with our leaders, (my sister and brother-in-law) Erin and Viktor, will be helping with Potter’s Place, an organization that works with the homeless and New Beginnings, a church that works with First Nations people and inner-city kids....

This has been one of the best birthdays ever
Today has been all over the map with an exam, class, having to make a group presentation and enjoying life with my Kaleo family. But God has been present through it all. I just feel so incredibly blessed to have such wonderful people in my life that I can laugh and have fun with but also that I can learn and grow with. I really don’t know what I would do without these people. I’m thankful that I...

Dude, it’s a good thing I’m not Jewish. This has been the seventh meal in a row featuring pork. You’d think someone on camp staff ran over a pig with their car…

whenever I say “I want that” please know that I am quoting that scene from Napoleon Dynamite where Uncle Rico is trying to sell tupperware and is sweeting the deal with the model ship.

We have completely lost our minds
My friend Hannah and I have locked ourselves inside all day studying for our Theology of Mission exam tomorrow morning. However in the past two hours we’ve lost our minds and have started quizzing each other in a southern drawl. We also threw around an orange, sat upside down and giggled uncontrollably. It has been a long day!

Living by the Ocean
The fog has descended, a covering thick
Days like this pass slowly, anything but quick
I hear the fog horn, oh the blaring noise
I can’t escape the future, left without poise
-
The clock slows down, yet I’m still stuck
I’m biding my time, pressing my luck
The slower I move, I’m procrastinating
The less time I have, agonized palpitating
-
I haven’t got any words, with empty lips
There’s nothing...

So instead of skipping a chance to hang out with my friends to do homework I apparently skipped a chance to hang out with my friends to google why my sneezes smell like honey. This procrastination is getting out of hand. And I still don’t know why I smell honey!

Nerf war + Tim Stabell = awesome!
Tonight we had a building-wide Nerf war with all the students in my program, Qwanoes staff and Dr. Time Stabell (pictured below), the professor teaching us Theology of Mission.
Seriously though, in what other program do you get to have a Nerf war with your prof?
Kaleo is awesome.
