This weekend was, as my title says, very refreshing.
-Friday night i stuck around campus and played music with some friends, and then came back and caught up with some people (possibly you?) Anyway I stayed up late because the next day was the first day I could actually sleep in!
Brian and I were in our Saginaw News, so for those of you who don't live in Saginaw-

-Saturday... some sleep in.... I couldn't sleep longer than 9:30. It was terrible to see what getting up early enough does to your ability to sleep in like a teenager. After I woke up, me and roomie went on a run around the campus. Breathing here is difficult. I can still feel it after 2 weeks. It just takes a lot of extra effort to draw a breath. I've been told when I get back though that I will be able to run nonstop.
We hung out during the
afternoon and at night we went out to the 16th street mall with a group of us. It was ZOMBIE night on the 16th street mall. It was so creepily cool! Basically people were either zombies or victims. The victims wore a duct tape X on their shirts and that meant the zombie could attack you and pretend to eat you as this lady is pretending on the right. It was pretty ridic.We had some Jimmy Johns, which was my first since leaving home,and it tasted mighty fine!
We definitely enjoyed it!Sunday- Went with a group of people downtown to go visit some museums. We found the Colorado History one. It was a lot about the native americans etc. which is i suppose the main part of Colorado's history. I think I'm just sick of learning about that because we got it every year in school for about half the year in history. After this cultural experiance, we had another one. Noodle & Co. Now, I hear this is a must. I tried it, it was alright. Jimmy Johns was better :]
Tonight Brian and I tried out a church that we've been looking at. Bloom Church in Denver. It's a newly founded church, the worship leader is Michael Gungor, which was awesome to find out. It was literally maybe 30 people. It was just starting but it was amazing. The speaker was powerful, and I was so touched by his message. It was about being useful to God, especially focusing on David's availability to God and how much God used him. It was such a good feeling to be worshiping God with these few people in a town 1000+ miles away from home. It was the reminder that I needed today that I am here for a reason. I don't even need to know why, I just need to be willing, available, and ready.
Definitely in process,
Abigail
Jimmy Johns--I just don't get it. Sounds like the zombie thing was fun. Have you been to that big bookstore downtown yet?
ReplyDeleteI remember when we were on the ranch I would find myself sighing deeply fairly often, due to the altitude sowehow. Even though we were there for a week or two it didn't go away. Ah well, you will probably be close to sea level soon.
Look for a letter, going out in the morning.
