Busy Life

Last weekend (12th-13th) Jen and I attended the school's high school retreat. It was an awesome time. We had fun. It rained practically the whole time we were there so that kind of ruined some plans or at least postponed them. We had worship time which was very good and insightful. We had games like capture the flag, volleyball, flamingo football, fruit salad and many more. Flamingo football was a blast. It was just like American tackle football except the guys can only use one leg the whole game while the girls get to use both. The girls lost but we got in some pretty good tackles. It was so funny to watch all of us tackle one person. We also sat around the bonfire and sang songs and heard a ghost story told by one of my classmates. We froze our tails off and enjoyed ourselves all at the same time. After getting back on Sunday night I finished up what homework I could and went to bed. I had at least 3 tests that week and felt like I was studying late every night of the week. Then, that weekend (18th Saturday morning) Jen and I went to a school here in Turkey to take the wonderful PSAT. We then attended a friend's party where we played the game, "Honey, if you love me ,please smile." That was a fun but ackward game because we played guys vs. girls (girls had to get the guys to smile somehow). Then we kicked the guys out and had a sleepover where we stayed up till 3:00 a.m. So the past two weekends have been late nights, early mornings, and not enough sleep. I had a busy week this week, too. I had at least 4 tests or quizzes and felt like I was staying up and studying all night long. We got to skip school on Friday because the girls' soccer team had an all day tournament. That is pretty much all that has occured within the past two weeks. If I think my life is busy now I wonder what I am going to think about college?
