Christ walks on this Island, will you meet Him here?

Well, I promised that I would re post my list and say how it went. I'm just saying, Word of Life Island is the best place on earth. I met and was reunited with so many interesting and wonderful people this year. It was probably my best year I've had.

Although, I did not complete every thing on the list as I promised I would.

1. I did see Vito. In fact, I saw A LOT of Vito because I hung out with him most of the week and became very good friends with him. I've known him since I was ten or eleven by the way. I miss him about as much as I miss Kai. Which is a lot.
2. I saw Nicole only twice, but she was as great as ever. I miss my big sister.
3. I saw Taylor every day. She worked for the Medication Station so she was at every meal. Thank goodness I never actually had to go to the infirmary for a real injury.
4. I saw Shannon every day because she was my counselor!!! :D
5. I saw Elizabeth everyday because she was my counselor as well. :)
6. I saw Joseph only twice. Because he was working across the lake on the children's camp.
7. I did make a lot of friends. (And also several enemies because of the friends I made.) Lake, Victoria, Adrienne, Vito, Kai, Devin, Hunter, Jables, Jon, Ginger, Heather, Amber, Green Lantern, Will, Adam, Blaise, Steve, etc. etc.
8. Our cabin gave up on trying to win cabin of the week on account that it took too much energy and time to impress the program guys. Plus, who wants to cheer their heads off every meal just to win a stupid party barge? I'd rather have fun during the week.
9. I got 3rd place in my web site. I also got 5th place in poetry. I did not place in my short story though.
10. I became well known as Twix the Monkey, Fez Girl, Nerd Glasses Girl, and the girl who followed Vito and Kai. What can I say? I'm pretty awesome.
11. I spent everything but two quarters and the lucky penny our youth leader gave me.
12. I FAILED!!! I did not do a meal time challenge. At all. Lucky me.
13. Adam, Blaise, Chung Day, and Steve
14. I helped uproot a tree. Does that count as as encouraging my sense of daring?
15. I ate almost everything. It was GOOD. 
16. I did. Once. Because then we found out we weren't allowed to chill there. 
17. Um...epic fail. But I'm sort of glad I failed at this one. I liked two guys. One of them is now basically my coolest friends and one of them is basically tearing my heart in half because he lives in Indiana. But they are both coming to my sixteenth birthday party in January. So I'm excited. And against popular belief, and my own belief, they WILL show up.
18. I am NOT a Vito and Kai groupie. I am their friend. All you stalkers freak me out and tried to kill me!!! I did not stalk anyone.
19. Gave my ticket for paint ball away to someone so I could hang out with Vito and Kai. 
20. I hung out with the guys from my church everyday and became friends with the guys in their cabin.
21. AVOIDED EVERY SPORTS TOURNAMENT!!! Although I did watch a few.
22. I did dress out every day. Jungle day, nerd day, tacky day, and dress your counselor day 
23. FAILED!!! I did not write everything down... 
24. I did go tubing and it was AWESOME
25. I thought I was going to die in the motel. It was so scary.  
26. I did not die. Thank God. I thought I would sometime.
27. FAIL. I did not get inspiration for my book. 
28. I did learn a lot about God. I learned that God's love for me never changes. Nothing I do can change how much he loves me. I know that he never changes. I know that his plan for my life is perfect. I know that I need to stay in his hands and never try to leave. His plan is perfect and I just need to follow it. Follow his laws no matter how much it hurts. 
29. I listened in Bible Hour everyday. Although I did almost fall asleep a few times.
30. I did have fun doing everything. Even when I was crying. Even when I was leaving. I had an AWESOME TIME!!!
31. Her name is Angie and she scares me even though I know her.
32. FAIL! I did not prank call anyone. 
33. Not only did I sing veggie tales songs with Abby at the top of my lungs I also sang many songs from musicals, the Creep, and several other hit songs.
34. I didn't need to stage the light saber battle. It happened. And I totally won!!! 
35. I participated in the Vito magic show...so yes. I did.
36. With Vito, Kai, and Abby? Of course I did something crazy everyday!!! 
37. My cabin did prank someone. We hung Sophie's Cabin's Justin Beiber cut out from the ceiling. In a noose. It was awesome. 
38. We bribed the people almost everyday and we got really good scores on our cabin.  
39. I lost my fedora. And cried. Hard. It was really sad.
40. I didn't hang out in the Pub. I stayed outside even when it was pouring. I hung out in there once because Kai and I were hiding from Kai's stalker. 
41. Easiest thing to do on the list. ;)

So, obviously camp was awesome. I miss everyone so much. It hurts more than normal, which is weird. I had an awesome time.

My month is so busy. On Friday I leave for Pennsylvania. I get two days to recuperate. Life is AWESOME.

Until the sidewalk ends,
