November

I thought I'd just post to say how excited I am about this month.  That probably has something to do with the fact that I'll be in school for about half of what I would be during a normal month in the school year!

This Friday morning I'm traveling to Florida for the UMC's Exploration 2006 event.  The week of Thanksgiving I will be out of town from Wednesday until Saturday.  And then, on the 30th through December 4th I'll be at the National Youth Worker's Convention in Charlotte.

Needless to say, I'm quite excited about this month and the beginning of December!

I'm planning on blogging the NYWC definitely, and I could possibly blog Exploration.  We'll have to see...

To add to the randomness of this post, I just have to share the lyrics of a song I came across yesterday and loved. The band is named Wilco :

Theologians

Theologians
They don't know nothing
About my soul
About my soul

I'm an ocean
An abyss in motion
Slow motion
Slow motion

Inlitterati lumen fidei
God is with us everyday
That illiterate light
Is with us every night

Theologians
That don't know nothing
About my soul
Oh they don't know

They thin my heart with little things
And my life with change
Oh in so many ways
I find more missing every day

Theologians

I'm going away
Where you will look for me
Where I'm going you cannot come

No one's ever gonna take my life from me
I lay it down
A ghost is born
A ghost is born
A ghost is born

I'm an ocean
I'm all emotion
I'm a cherry ghost
Cherry ghost

Hey I'm a cherry ghost
A cherry ghost

Nat- I'm commenting! You bring me hope for the Church! Perhaps I'll post our list of adjectives from exploration and things which distract us!

[Shottie]

I'm ready for an update!

Nice blog - if it's cool, I plan to read through it. It'd be great to talk to someone who went there and had (likely) a much different experience than I.

[Scott]

edit - i should say, if it's cool with you (the way it's written, it indicates that if i think the blog is cool i'll read it).

Scott -- Haha, I understood you the first time, but thanks for clarifying.

Go right ahead. . . There's not a huge deal of stuff on here that deals with YTI directly, but it's definitely been a sort of undercurrent.

Jot me an email sometime. I'd love to hear about your experience at YTI and compare it to my own. There's an 'email me' link in the top right of the site.
