BEST WEEKEND EVER!

For those avid readers of my blog who DON'T understand what the letters TYC mean, you will be EXTREMELY confused while you read this. But do read anyways.

TYC: INTENSE, UNFORGETTABLE, AND THE BEST 3 DAYS OF MY LIFE! -sorry grad but you are going to pale in comparison...you don't even stand a chance.

The memories that were made this weekend are irreplaceable, and there is nothing anyone could do or say that could make me forget the feelings that I felt, the words that I heard, the people I met, or even the fun that I had. It was a very special weekend.

Usually at church events, I feel awkward and out of place. I feel as if I am somewhat not accepted. Usually, I find church events rather difficult because I feel as if I missed something that everyone else knows. But not this weekend. Not at TYC. TYC was completely the opposite. I felt included, I felt accepted, I felt like everyone was cheering for me JUST as loudly as I was cheering for them. TYC was the best church youth function I have ever been to, and it's made me excited for church and youth again. I feel that I need to be better. A better example, a better friend, a better person. I have become convinced that what I was before TYC is someone that I have left in the passed, and now I just want to do my best...in everything.

Now before you jump to conclusions and think that I've done something terrible, don't worry. I'm not ashamed of who I was before TYC, I just WANT to be even better! And since there is always an option to be better why not take it.

I made new friends, I strengthened ties with old friends. I learned that sometimes dodging the line is ok (ie make-up...shudder) and when dodging the line isn't cool (ie for lunch -glower-). It was a show of a life time, the buzz back stage and in the dressing room was intense, and I wouldn't trade the time I spent at TYC for anything...except for maybe another day added on.

My apologies grad dinner dance, but there is no way you are going to be able to top this, so don't even try. In my books you are already number 5 of most exciting events in my life...and that's the highest you (Grad) can go...sorry :P
