Home again.

I still haven't entirely gotten to the point of fully realising that I'm home for the rest of the summer. For one thing, I haven't had the chance to, as Mom has me running around like a person on acid (after watching Telletubbies perhaps?) - and it's bloody annoying -. But eh, I'm not bitter.

I have to admit that it's a little bit worrisome, going from the school where it's an amazing Christian environment, and you have so many people constantly pushing you in your growth and walk, and then coming home to Thompson. I mean, yes there are a lot of amazing Christians in my group of friends, and yes we have an amazing new Youth Pastor, but still, I have so much more independence in my walk now, it's almost scary.

It's also strange to think that I'm going on 20 in close to 3 months. This year has caused so many changes for me, in my thinking, actions, everything really. Have I grown up too much? Will things be akward with my friends? The way I see it, if anything, I can just accept the fact that I've become an old bag, get past it, but still hold that mentorship within my younger friendships, only now I actually have answers, whereas the past few years many of my answers were based moreso on opinion. I don't know, things are just so confusing. Does turning 20 do this to everyone? Gah!

Sorry for the short post, I may add a bit more later. It's too early for me right now.

so glad i have people like you in my life to make me feel young. :) next to 20, 18 seems like nothing. which is fine by me.

anyways, thats likely not what you want to hear so now i'm going to run away adn start gaining muscle so that when i step off the plane and you try to beat me up you still can't win.

maybe i'm the teletubbie on acid?
