Big sunny funtastic weekend time.

Yo. It was sunny this weekend. I loved it. I got lots of good experiences to talk about. Let’s break it down.

Saturday: Up at 7AM to go running with Dostertron (Stephanie Dost) and my buddy stephen at Green Lake before breakfast with Ben Troop. It was his 730AM surprise breakfast. Why it needed to be so blasted early? I don’t know. Anyhow, we surprised him. I think. We got there late…and didn’t buy any food. My parents were coming in to take us out to breakfast. They came at 9:30. I didn’t go back to sleep.

We went to breakfast at Queen Anne Cafe (by we I mean stephen and myself and my folks). I ordered the veggie omelet. Lately I’ve realized that I might as well order the veggie omelet to help balance my diet. I really don’t need more meat in an omelet that’s made out of eggs to begin with…then again, I always order it with ham too. Sometimes you just want the ham.

I also ordered coffee. My parents told me not to order it. I did anyway. After I put about a cup of sugar in it my dad said that I didn’t actually like coffee. I sure like coffee icecream, but maybe he’s right.

After breakfast my folks and I went to walk about at Discovery park. We got to the lighthouse. My parents really were not dressed for the weather and my dad got somewhat crabby about having to go on the beach. “I’m not real hung up on the beach.” were his words. It’s code for “That’s not what I want to do.” My mom and I wanted to walk on the beach…so we outvoted him.

Then I returned to campus and had lunch with my Ben Troop (my parents having headed home). I enjoy spending time with Ben Troop.

Then I went to Alki beach with Stephen and my friend Emily Raymond. It was quite nice. I recieved a good deal of redness that will hopefully turn into a tan soon. I also swam in the puuuge (the puget sound). It was balls cold. I couldn’t feel my legs after awhile. Multiple pictures were taken and placed on facebook that make me feel self-conscious…I really don’t know when pictures of myself don’t do that.

We came back and I got dinner with the boys and then I laid in the grass for a long time. I talked with Natalie Closner. It was nice because I never really see/talk to her these days. Then I went down to wallace field and sat on the grass with some friends and played Catchphrase. Fun. Then it was off to Ben Troop’s room to watch a silly British Comedy. When floor hours rolled around Ben and Emily and Stephen and I went to the Matador. I bought Ben some nachos. I bought myself some too. It was his big 21 birthday and he didn’t drink at all in a very integrity-filled fashion. Well done sir.

Then I went to bed. Stephen snores when his head is at an odd angle. I dunno if you read Friday’s post or not, but my friend Stephen from home is visiting. That’s why I keep mentioning him.

I awoke this morning to go the Mennonite Church in Bellevue. Good stuff. Round 3. I like the people there alot. My small group and I are the only college age kids who go, so we call ourselves “the college group”. The men’s division of college group is called “The Redwood Forest”. The umbrella college group name that we’re going with is called the Puuuge (the puget sound, but abbreviated).

After church it was time for homework. Not fun. Educational, but not fun.

Then I went to Beach Bash (a BBQ that 6th Hill does every year) and proceeded to eat free food and then play volleyball for a while. It was very fun. Zach Brenneman threw the volleyball at me and it made my glasses cut my nose. I bled for a bit. My friend Robb would say “So, it was a good day?” Yes Robb. It was a good day. I can’t say too much else. So I’ll end with this.

At church we do this thing called joys and concerns. When something is good it’s followed by “thanks be to God!” and when something is concerning it recieves a “Lord in your mercy, hear our prayers.”…This weekend would fall under the “Thanks be to God!” Category.

Here. Watch this. It’s funny. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92vV3QGagck
