"I didn't really know you. We never hung out or did any of that sort. You were only a grade younger than me. You played basketball and just graduated from high school. You seemed like a nice person. I wish I knew more about you, but I, sadly, do not. However, I do know that you always had a smile on your face. I think everybody knew that. That's how you were remembered--you and your vibrant smile. You are truly missed by many, but you will never be forgotten."
Rest In Peace Kelly Roome
Sunday, July 12th Kelly's showing. I obviously didn't know her well, but from her showing, I quickly realized how many people loved her. The entire thing seemed surreal. I feel for her family who is mourning over her, but I (and I'm sure they) know that God and Kelly are looking after them now.
On a brighter note, Erika and I got new kicks. They're pretty sweet. I'll show you a photo of us rockin them. We also had our 2nd Euchre Tournament for the summer! The partners were me and Brad, Erika and Mallary, Taylor and Alan, Ryan and Abbey, Jessica and Stevie, and Corbin and Rachel. I would like to proudly say that Bradley Wayne and I won the gold. Was I surprised? Certainly not! I would also like to mention that Stevie and Jess were 0-5, making Stevie 0-10 overall. Talk about embarrassing!
What else is new? July 14th-16th was VBS at CCG, and Andrea and I were, of course, crew leaders. It was so amazing this year! The kids at VBS helped raise $875 within THREE days! The money is for Haitian kids, and now 241 kids will be able to eat lunch for a month! I immediately thought of 1 Timothy 4:12 when this happened. 4 year olds-5th graders helped feed 241 children. How amazing is that?!? They are truly are great examples of 1 Timothy 4:12. It just makes me want to cry! Haha
Speaking of crying, I watched My Sister's Keeper. The movie was around 1 hr and 50 mins. I'm pretty sure I cried for 1 hr and 20 mins. It was such a great movie! I loved it. I also watched The Proposal. It was a good romantic comedy. It had Sandra Bullock, so of course there were some laughs! I also recently watched Ghosts of Girlfriends Past. I reallllly liked that movie. I didn't think it would be that good, but I might have liked it more than The Proposal!
Anywho, I don't know what else anyone needs to know about what's been happening with con mi vida! I'm still interning at ESC, and it is still great! I can't believe that July is almost over... Summer has gone by so quickly this year! I start school in almost a month. It's just unbelievable. Oh, here's some random news: Megan Dixon got home from Germany today! I thought that was pretty exciting since she's one of my fave people! Ok, I'm finally done here! Jezi renmen w! That means Jesus loves you in Creole!
