News and Stuff

Well I am on a worship team and we are singing at the Sunday night service, and I am signed up for singing and my grandma will appreciate this, and for playing the piano…I am not playing this time but my team wants me to play at least one song. I’ll probably play next time around. And singing should be interesting because I have a cold. So my voice is horse and scratchy so I am stuck singing the guys part, which I’m fine with because my range is lower anyways. So I’m a little nervous, but excited at the same time. I also went into Lancaster for a birthday dinner on Tuesday at a little Italian restaurant. I have also signed up for an outreach thing were we got into schools and talk to kids about Jesus and God. We do assemblies and clubs, and my age group is little kids to younger teens s that should be fun. And Saturday, I am going to fottball game (soccer game) in Morcambe. We are just watching a local team…nothing too big. But definitely FUN!!
until later...

three weeks already

hello all,
i cant believe that i have been here three weeks already...... and its even harder to believe that i am in school, which might be a bad thing, because I'm not in the school groove yet. so other than that i have not done a whole lot, things are starting to settle down, and become more regular so its getting boring, hahaha just kidding its not getting boring at all, but its definitely slowing down. but today i went on a walk to the top of this really high hill that is in front of the castle so that was fun and I'm going to go to Scotland at the beginning of November so I'm looking forward to that...... and a couple of days ago i walked into Carnforth which is the closest town to the castle and it took us an hour and a half to get there because we went the wrong way at first but then we got the direction right.......um what else oh I'm doing aerobics twice a week now, and playing soccer every now and then and going swimming, and taking daily walks around the grounds....so i can stay in shape, and I'm eating what seems like not a lot to the British, but they also have HUGE portions, so I'm eating normal, and everything i deep fried and fatty so i mainly eat salad, so i don't gain like a hundred pounds while I'm over here.........

and ya that's pretty much it nothing else is really going on........I'm making lots of friends, and being social, and every Friday night we have an event planed and it is different from week to week, like this last Friday we had British night, and last Friday we learned some Scottish dances.... it was really fun and funny to watch......

until next time
cheers

end of the first

so it is the end of my first week of school, and it is pretty intense. lets see the food really takes some getting use to, and definatly waking up in the mornings and being expected to pay attention and take notes for four hours IN THE MORNING, UGH. but we get brakes between each session, so thats good. ummmm im learing to like tea alot. oh and the names for thing are so hard to get use to, for instance our evening meal is called tea, and our evening tea time is called supper, it is very confusing, and everytime they anounce tea in 5 min, i think that i am getting sick of tea and i really dont want to go, but my roomates so kindly remind me that it not drinking tea, but eating dinner. so i have resorted to calling them drink time and food time. oh and just so no one is confused i have mad other friends than the cows that are around. and i was so happen when i found that they have nestle's chocolate milk. and they had sunny d i was so happy that i just had to buy them. the cold showers take some getting use to, im highly considering taking my morning showers in te pool room shower, cuz they get hot water, its so bad that this morning i had to wash my hair in the sink, that was an adventure. i have had many laugh with my roomates, over rediculous things like laundry, and blowing peaoples noses, just stupid things like that. oh anf the highlight of my week was when we had an objective of getting a picture with a sheep, so me and my team went out and chased a sheep and tackled it down and took a picture with it, and it was at night when we did this, sheep are really hard to chatch at night havent tryed it durning the day....... yet........maybe i will????!!??!!?!?!?!!?!
