i'm leaving this weekend with a mixture of the mind.
i'm tired, excited, petrified, optimistic, fearful, anxious, overwhelmed, appreciative, hot and wondering. and probably much more.
quite a mix i think. it was interesting to be with a bunch of people - some of whom i know well, some of whom i have never spoken to before, and others in between - who are so different in our strengths, but all passionate about young people and young adults in our different ways. i'm glad to have strengthened friendships, and hope to strengthen team life for the particular bit i'm a part of.
i'm a bit anxious about being boxed and labelled. i don't mind being in my little box, most of the time, but it would be nice to have a someone share my box sometimes.
sometimes i find it hard to be connected to anything. i think it's apathy more than anything else.
i can't believe that the alarm where we were staying malfunctioned and went off every hour or less from midnight last night. that was insane. and loud. and incredibly annoying.
that being said, i am thankful for the alarm malfunctioning because our substitute venue had air conditioning.
i am thankful for cookies and cream icecream.
i am thankful for my sister.
i am wanting to be thankful for opportunities. and less scared of the bigness of things.
