Chapter 2

I didn't know I had created soo many posts... Sorry? Or maybe not. I get excited when I find people updated their stuff, and the more posts there are, the more things are updated. But maybe the posts aren't worth reading. Gasp, why did I say that? Some of mine prolly aren't worth it. Especially for their length. But I don't think I've read one post so far that I regret reading. Every blog is different, talking about different things, or maybe the same things, in different ways. People have thoughts that they want out there. Or maybe they jus want everyone to share in the joy or pain or plainess of their day. There are crazy reasons for blogs out there.

Alright, so guess what book I aquired today? And you have to guess before you read much more, k? So, to fill this space before providing the answer, Today I was at Mike's for a bit. Just a short while before I had one of the most real conversations I've had recently. Real conversations don't come up around Werner much. Prolly cuz he doesn't know much how to deal with them. And maybe he's a tad off the deep end. Anyway, we enjoyed deep fried fries while pwning computers who don't know the art of Mario Kart. We unlocked it all. Everything. Hmm...Now what?

The book is called Velvet Elvis. By that Rob Bell guy. A while ago Graham was advertising it (man, I don't think I'd know anything current if it weren't for you. Thanks) so I went to the church library to get one. But it wasn't there. But today the librarian was like,'Hey, you wanted that book before, right?' So I got it. Woot woot. So far, I don't know much about it, but it seems to be this guys thoughts on christianity. If someone painted a painting, and it schooled all other paintings, the painter of the painting cannot tell all painters everywhere that they can no longer paint. Painting is not for he sake of creating the best picture ever. That's about as far as I got. Woot, first page.

So, my weekend was a beach party plus. Yesterday, We built an amazing fort, waded out to an island, and such...Some went garage sailing while I worked. Okay. Then today we went back to the fort of ship likeness, went swimming, almost dragged someone in who didn't want to go swimming in the ocean voluntarily, however she seemed to want to be forced to. Weird. And don't throw rocks at people. It doesn't make them happy.

Enjoying all this crazy beautiful weather has fully detered me from school mindset; something I'll need to make the teachers happy. I don't think I can go back and just settle into the routine again. Of course, that's what I think after every summer, when school comes in right after. Is it possible that a whole summer experience had just been encapsulated in one weekend? Maybe a normal one. But it doesn't look like I will be having a normal summer for a while.

Is it worth coming back to earth? There won't be crazy partying this next weekend as there was this one because of the main party bringer, whether he will admit it or not, will be attending his sister's graduation in Abbotsford. Looking ahead is hard though. You don't know what will happen. Except for small major things. That might not make sense, but it does. Like, some of my friend's leave for school in September. Alright, that is small now, but once it happens. It'll be like changing planets. I might be in a foreign country for about a month in the summer, but once summer is over and this new normalcy begins to set itself in place, It'll be more foreign than anywhere else I can go. That's my looking ahead right now. Pretty sweet eh? But so many amazing things are happening before that happens, so I don't want to look ahead, I just want to soak in the stuff that's happening now, like sun rays that burn your face, and enjoy it.
