ALOTTA 'BOUT LIVIN N ALIL 'BOUT LOVE

The past few days have been great--my first normal weekend out here. Got to SLEEP IN which was great. Yesterday (Saturday) I just watched some movies and went swimming. The guys have this game they call XMP (Extreme Marco Polo) that we played. The word extreme is probably the best fit word for a reason. The game is just a adaptation of the widely popular game of "MARCO!" and "POLO!" However, the extreme version does not include the shouting and you basically just mess with whoever is 'it' by splashing them or messing with them in any way you can until they tag someone (of course, this is still all while their eyes are closed). So after that, a few of the guys thought it would be fun to have a BBQ. We rushed over to Wal-Mart and got some bratwursts and buns, sweet tea, and some chili. It was quite the feast (to say the least). After this meal, the guys and I retreated to the couch and watched a few movies and played a few video games... a few friends came over... then left. It was a low-key night. I also got to sleep in today (Sunday) and haven't done anything up until now. I am, however, planning on going to Status tonight. Status is a college-aged church service on Sunday nights. Some of the interns are going so I'll probably tag along. I shall let you know how that goes when I return. Anyway, just wanted to let you know I am still alive and having a great time. I'm sure I will be up to a lot more next weekend so be prepared to listen to my crazy adventures! Hopefully soon I will be motivated to take some pictures throughout my typical day that way y'all can see what I do and who I do it with. I know you will like that. Until tonight, my faithful friends and family, thank you for reading my blog. I love and miss you all.
