Yes. Yes that did rhyme. It took me 5 whole minutes to come up with that too, so you'd better appreciate that :-P
I got back home from camp evergreen on Saturday, and man oh man... in the nine years I've been there, this was the best week ever. I am so on fire for God now!!!! I've had such a dormant relationship with God this school year, and I'm so glad He uses evergreen to constantly regenerate me. I'll write more all about it in another post, probably on Saturday...... because all I'll be doing this week is AWSI!!!!!!!!!
Assistant Water Safety Instructor. People have told me its a walk in the park, especially for us homeschooled kids who rock at paperwork. BUT I AM SO OVERWHELMED!!!!! I think it depends on how your teacher presents it to you, because this is sounding to be pretty intense. My teacher doesn't sugar-coat anything, so right off the bat she was like, "This is all you'll be doing for the next 5 days; eat, sleep, AWSI, AWSI homework. You will be up all night sometimes trying to do this homework!" I just finished day one, and I've already finished my two written assignments and gotten the things I needed to buy and gather together, but I still have seven chapters to read in the manual. SEVEN. CHAPTERS. Facedesk/
And I'm the oldest in my class, which is definitely a first for me. Everyone else is going into either grade 10 or 11, while little old me is already gearing up for grade 12!! But that's for another post ;-)
I did meet a fellow sister in Christ though, I can't tell you how HAPPY I was!!!!!!!! I noticed that she was wearing tons of wrist bands, and in reading them I found out that they were all from bands like Toby Mac and Skillet! Turns out she was at Creation Fest too this year with her youth group. Which happens to be a youth group I've been thinking of checking out for a while, but I've been to scared to go by myself! God works in mysterious ways :-) He opened a door in a way I could never have imagined, YESS!! :-)
So, AWSI has had it's benefits as well, but your prayers would still be welcome :-)

Wow, I took AWSI a year ago and it wasn't that bad. ;( If your AWSI is this hard I'm not sure I want to know what your WSI is going to be like :p Hahaha. Atm I'm in the middle of taking NLS and trust me it's tons of FUN!!!! Try not and stress to much. :) Good luck!
