Disc Golf, y el basso

So I'm officially hardcore hooked on disc golf. This past week I went about 4 or 5 times. This week I'll do the same. Adam lost my first and favorite disc a few times ago, and last time I went, Jesse found it. My hope is restored. I've been discing it at Parkside's course. It's a decent course, its much shorter than Indianola's. They are redoing half of the course, so Adam and I thought holes 7-11 were being built, but last time I went, I found them. So me and Adam will go tomorrow and show those holes who's boss.

Today I get to play bass in church. I can't decide if I should enjoy it or view it as a chore. I don't really want to play bass my last sunday here, but w/e. It's been a few months since I've played my bass; I've been playing Jon's bass there in Indianola. So it will be good to get back in touch with my own bass.

Let's get it on!

Mad

Do you ever do something knowing that it will make you mad? Man does that make me mad! It's like it hurts so good. But I hate it! AHHHH!!!!!!!!

Noah's Ark

Yesterday I went to Noah's Ark, America's Largest water park, located in Wisconsin Dells. Not the best day to go there weather-wise, but not the worst. Lines were super short. We didn't wait more than like ten or 15 minutes for any ride. "We" is me, the Medina family -Grandma, and the Gerlach family -Tim. It was just a blast. It sucked getting up at 7 in the morning, but it was definitely worth it. There were so many funny things that we said and did, it was just unforgettable. "Excuse me, are these free samples? ...Yes sir they are... Well, then how much do they cost?... nothing, they're free... so you're telling me there is no charge for these samples? ...yes sir, totally free... well, let me go grab my wallet then, how much did you say they were?... i said they were free... oh, well i dont have enough money then. bye." Man adam and I laughed hard for a good five or ten minutes. like the laughing to where your stomach starts to hurt and tears are pouring out of your eyes. Good times, they are amazing.

Home

So I'm home. Home in Kenosha. It's good to be back, but it sucks to be back. There's things I really missed here, but there are things I now miss from Indianola. It's kinda like an emotional roller coaster. One minute I'm having a great time, the next minute I'm depressed about missing you guys from ICC. Even though I usually enjoy what I do, I just can't stay happy for very long. It's just kinda rough on me all this moving and changing and stuff.

Potluck/Baptism/Pool Party

Lastnight, at the Indianola Aquadic center, ICC held it's annual baptism party. Let me tell you, I haven't had that much fun for awhile. Just hanging out with all my childs was fun. I had such a blast. It kinda sucked having that pool party two days before I leave, because now it's even harder to say good bye. Now I'm totally at a point where I know a ton of the students at ICC and I just hate to leave them now! I'm going to work my hardest to come back as much as I can (which will probably be like every 3 months or something liker that). Just want you guys to know that you're great, you're wonderful, and I'm going to miss you tons.

Disc Golf

Yesterday I went disc golfing with Ian and Aaron. It was a blast. I ended up with a great score too. I was only 6 over par; its a new record for me. I am also beginning to build up a set. I've got 2 drivers, 2 putters, and 2 or 3 midrangers. It was super hot out there, but we all had fun. We went at about 1, and then lastnight at about 1130 i found a tic on my knee. That sucker was chillin there for like 10 hours. What a bum.

SBR

Silver Birch Ranch. What a week. So much happened. I couldn't even guess where to start. The week was fun, relaxing, exciting, stressful, awkward, competitive, educational, tiring, relational, thrilling... It was a week of memories, learning, growing, and making new friends. "Oooouuuch" "BOW MY NUTS!" "UR MOM"
Despite Satan working his hardest there, distracting us and attempting to inhibit our growth, God still showed up and releaved Himself to us. Spiritually, it was a rough week. It wasn't the normal silver birch experience. Satan put up a really good fight this week and held us up a lot. God still showed each person something new. God helped us grow closer to Him and to each other. Satan faught good, but God came out on top and won this week. Thank God for his plan, and how powerful and good He is.
