“Where the Rubber Meets the Road” and Other Idioms

I feel like I am stepping out of a whirlwind of activity!

Last Friday, May 30, I left to go to Catalina Island for four days with my 8th grade class. Catalina was an amazing experience and I really felt God’s hand there. He worked in my heart and in the hearts of my classmates. The worship there was unforgettable!

The next day, which I had off, I had a choir event in the evening and that was pretty fun!

The rest of the school week, I had dress-down days for various reasons – that was nice!

On Thursday, yearbooks were passed out and signing started. And the whole evening I had my graduation banquet which was a blast! Everyone looked beautiful (and handsome)!

And then, yesterday, my brother and I went to DisneyLand with our school. I had a ton of fun. My group went on Big Thunder Mountain three times, and Space Mountain was AMAZING!!!!! The group I was in also won second place in a scavenger hunt.

Finally, today is my Dad’s 35th birthday, so we went to see Iron Man and had dinner at BJ’s.

So, yeah. . . I’ve been pretty busy lately!

Just a little hint about Iron Man if you haven’t seen it yet: it’s really cool, but kinda weak on the storyline.

It has awesome graphics and stuff and the action scenes are really intense, but the storyline is kin of like, “Huh. . “

In conclusion, I want to say Happy Birthday to my Daddy!!
