It's crazy that I haven't blogged since Imagine:Nation! Well, I guess it's time for a tiny update. After I:N I went to Brazil for two weeks and it was totally and completely amazing! I met so many new people that I really miss and I really just want to go back! Anyways, after I got back from Brazil we had an all Master's meeting that wasn't a very good one, but then again it was. Every year MCA takes a trip called the Midwest Tour which is where all of the MC's go on a tour and do church services in a bunch of different states. It's a huge recruiting trip to tell people more about Masters and what it's about and stuff. Well, because of some things that have gone on and because of the attitudes of different people, the entire trip was cancelled. If we had gone on that trip, we would have lied to so many people about who we are as individuals and that's not was MCA is about. It was a very good thing, but very hard to deal with.
That weekend a few of the MC's, including me, went to Corpus Christi for a travel trip for at a college ministry. The service was really great and all that, but God really spoke to me that night about my calling if you will. A bunch of the leaders and the MC's were praying before the service started and the Holy Spirit was really moving and as I prayed I could see, like literally see, myself standing on a stage and speaking to a crowd full of women and teenagers. It was incredible and peaceful all at once. I loved it.
I got to go home for my dad's birthday and surprise a bunch of my family which was awesome! I loved seeing my family and the looks on their faces when they saw me and didn't expect to see me. LOVED IT!
On May 3 we did Earthbeat which is when a bunch of us went to clean up different parts of Austin and that was pretty fun. We had UNCUT two weeks ago which was our Campus Days for perspective students. Last Monday was the beginning of the last "Two Weeks" of the year and so there's a bunch of people who are trying to get all of their tuition money in. Next Monday we will all leave for Florida to work Event Force which a huge conference for Microsoft. After 3 weeks of that we come back for a day and then leave for Royal Family Kids Camp which is a camp for abused children. Then we will come back from that and have grad week, which is the last week of Masters. So sad!
Anyways, that's it for now and I'll blog with more updates later!
PEACE!

Imagine:Nation
So we left for I:N on Sunday night and that's pretty much where our adventure started. Since then we have interviewed Lloyd Ziegler, Kelly James, Elijah Kelley and the creator of a radio show for the LA Dreamcenter. We have also been donated lots of food, had hotel suite donated to us for a night and now we are staying at a Disney animator's house for a couple days. Plus, we might be able to get an interview with Switchfoot. It's all very exciting, but very frustrating. Everyone is really starting to get annoyed by everyone else and several feelings have been hurt. I can truly say that I cannot wait to get away from these people or at least away from them in such a closed space, such as a car. However, God has really blessed every aspect of this trip so I know that I'm supposed to be here, I just don't know why. Possibly to teach me patience, which this is a very good way to learn it. I just want to sleep in my own bed and stuff. I think that's why I'm a little cranky. But that's that little update from this little trip. I'm very excited and I know that God will continue to work in His own way because His way is really the best way.

Girls' Trip
So, on Friday, everyone was finally back from break and we could start getting ready for our girls' trip. We all met at noon in the living room, ate lunch and then fjound out where we were going...sorta. We rented a house in New Braunsfels at Lake Placid Estates. This house is BALLER! It looks over this HUGE lake and the people we are renting the house from has this boat that they are letting us ride! It's amazing! Tonight Amanda and Carrie are taking us somewhere really nice tonight....we're just not sure where. They really wanted to surprise us to I'm trying hard not to ask to many questions, lol. Anyway, this place is amazing and I'm so glad that God has called me to this place. I feel blessed beyond measure. Anyway, that's all I have for now and I'll have to write a sequal to this blog later on tonight and say how the night went. But until then I need to get ready and stuff. Laterz.
