Sr. Trip 2009

Last weekend was the annual sr. trip. we went to the wonderful meto of St. Louis. i was super excited about going, i had driven through it a million times but never actually visited! We left late thrusday night and got back on saturday night late. We went to the zoo, the mall, the city muesum and the arch. We also had a bonfire at a state park on friday night. this trip was probably one of the most fun trips i had ever been on. The st. louis zoo is free and one of the best zoos i had been to. The city muesum is this amazing place where you can climb run through and watch different activities. That was only $12 to get in to. It had a 4 story 'play place' that you can go through. there were abotu 50 seniors that went. most of the time we were lost or not having a clue of where we were going, but that always makes for a great time. On a more serious note since i was a transfer student i didn't come in with most of the people that were on this trip and i noticed that there were tons of different groups opf people going. But thing thing that i also noticed is how un-clique like this group of seniors was. It didnt matter that i didn't go to school with them for 4 years. i was included anyway. i loved it. i kinda wish that i would have come in with them but i know that it was God's purpose that i didn't. The fact that they were so open and welcoming to people that they hadn't hung out with on a normal basis shows how great of leaders that they will be in the ministry. they will be open and welcoming to new students this will make their ministries grow and blossom. Now they have their moments of 'crazyiness' (i.e. jumping over a 5ft bonfire :)) but that just shows that they know how to fun! We did have a few scary moments-crystal got in a minor car accident, everyone was ok but the other person didn't have insurance. And lewis sliced his head open 4 inches and had to 12 staples! it was a great moment. he kept saying, 'make sure you get good pics!' we were dying laughing!! it was great.

I can't believe my time at cbc is almost up. i only have 22 days left....what am i going to do!!! hehe
