ok so this year was deffinitally better than last year. lets see. where to start. ok my group name was creeping things that creepeth. kinda hard to work with there. ok so to start off ill tell a little about each person in our group. starting with our counseler.
ok. his name was zach. he kinda agrivated me. ok thats an understatement. he was an overweight guy with a lazy eye. he also struck me, (as well as everyone else) as a creepy petafile. for the following reasons. today, saturday, the last day, he was out there giving all the girls hugs and getting them to write down their adresses and phone numbers etc. which would be less creppy if he'd have talked to some of the guys too. but he didnt. anyway. reason number 2 creeps me out equally as much if not more. at the dances, he would pick the most attractive girls and counselers out of our group and dance with them. counselers i have less of a problem with. but the cute
girls... i mean...theyre MY age. hes like 20 something. i really felt sorry for those girls. ummmmm lets seeeeee...what else....ok the next reason both made me feel really like happy and it also creeped me out at the same time. ok so during the service activity cherish, who i will discuss more in depth later (for now ill just mention shes a really cool, attractive girl.) anyway during the service activity she came up to me and was telling me how she was doing something funny (cant remember what) but do demenstrate whatever this thing was she had to kind of...stroke my face. (side note: after she did this i was like "wait what was it agian?" i really honestly didnt hear her the first time but it did earn me an extra stroke.) anyway so she did this to me and then zach walks up and hes like got this huge ear to ear smile and hes like "cherish...you just crack me up sometimes..." it was really weird. becuase had it been anything else he wouldnt have done anything. oh ya now on to one of the most creepy things he did. he had his camera with him and he was showing us pictures from last week, and he was like "and then this girl here (pretty cute girl) had a huge crush on me (total bull crap btw. i asked him how he knew that and he replied it was becuase he had gotten a picture with her) so then we were all like "zach that girl looks kinda youn...is that a participant???" and he was like "ya...but on friday she wore this tight black dress and i was like ohhhhhhhhh" ...then came the 5 minute awkward scilence which we used to look uncomfortably at each other...then we just sortof went back to our rooms. heres another story bout ol zach. ok so one night he was like, "tomorrow every group gets to do something special for the girls. so last week, we got the girls to close their eyes then we'd lead them infront of a mirror and say we wanted to show you the most beutiful thing here at efy. open your eyes..." then he totally lost my support in the matter with what he said next. "it worked really well last week so we're going to do it agian this week. ill be the one to say the line." so we all looked around at each other and then finally i was like... "ummm why do you get to say it?" and everybody started laughing but i was being totally serious. then the participant sack spoke up "actually guys i agree with logan. i think itd mean more coming from us guys cos we're more on their level." then brandon or somebody said "who decided this was what we were going to do anyway?" then the counseler was like "guys it worked really well last week so we're going to do it this week! and im going to say it becuase i have more expierience doing it!" and i was like "hang on isnt it supposed to be more from us though?" and he was like and i quote "i want this time to be for me becuase my guys last week werent unified." for the time being it was put off but then later that night the discussion arose agian and someone asked agian wy the counseler shoud be the one saying the line? and agian he said it was becuase he had more expierience. so then i was like "not trying to be disrespectful but all it is is a line. you dont need expierience to say it" then he broke and was like "fine! you guys dont like my idea then zack can be my spokesman." we were all like ya there we go. unfortunatly later he guilt tripped us all into letting him do it. everyone but me. i still said do it. but everybody else was like "well alright" i was thinking bull crap but whatever...
ok now that we have him covered, lets move onto zack the
participant. really cool guy. i think he was probablly the leader of our little group. and while at times its been proven that he could be calm and not thinking about girls, those moments were few and far between. funny story. i stayed in craton. and i dunno if you guys know or not but those walls are paper thin. so you can carry on conversations with other rooms with ease. anyway one night, while robert was away, zack started talking and i was like "robert is not here right now, can i take a message?" and he was like "yes tell him id like to flick his nipples and that i love him" its funny becuase robert told him it takes 7 seconds until your nipples get hard after you flick them (its actually true. self tested)
ok whos next. how bout alonzo. ahhhh i got some stuff to say about this kid. little asian-ish kid. from hawaii. very abusive. likes five stars (hard slaps on the back). ummm so anyway first of all this kid never sings hyms. its just not his thing. he doesnt feel comfortable he says. also he never EVER bore his testimony before. you know the type. the quiet kid that always sits in the corner and doesnt speak. well alonzo actually did talk quite abit he just didnt like doing things in public. anyway on thursday, the spiritual day, hesang his first hym in 3 years. then in testimony meeting, he bore his first testimony. he said "when i saw you get up there i knew i had to". it was soooo powerful. becuase of that expierience, he is now my hero.
brandon. ahhhhhhh brandon. that kid cracks me up. never serious, always smiling. except when he sleeps. during devotionals, brandon would always be behind our counseler, making faces and...other...things...it cracked us up. and it wasnt just during devotionals, it was alllllll week. brandon was zachs shadow. so halarious. ill have pics and vids up later.
ok next is harry. harry was alonzos shadow/roomate. pretty cool guy. really mellow. he always appeared as if he was about to go to sleep. we played frisby alot. not just like me and harry but harry too. now that i think about it we didnt hang out that much. anyway in summation seemed like a pretty cool guy.
logan. do not make the mistake of thinking its me. diffrent logan. i cannot stress that enough. he sortof creeped me out too. but not in such a stalk...no wait thats exactly why he creeped me out. he stalked me and anders (anders is the man. not in my group. but the man none the less) ok so i walk out of the cafeteria and hes standing in the middle of the field and he starts walking toward me. im like...ummmm...mm-kay...so then i get to about where he is and he, trying to be inconspicuous turns around and starts following me. once agian a red flag pops up...so he followed me all the way to my room. then he just went to his room and slept. also, for some reason he was really really mad at anders. keep in mind he has no legitimate reason to be angry. anders told me he didnt do anything to him. but logan still refused to talk to him.
thats almost all the guys. there were only 8 boys and 20 girls.
tyson. didnt really talk to him much. but he cracked me up. he had the funny look on his face. also he weighed like 80 pounds. he had a kinda funny voice too...
ok so thats the boys. now out of 20 girls i know like 5 of their names. argh. whatever. so if your one of those 5, you should feel uber special. if not, its not that i dont like you, its just i never got the chance to dance with you or talk to you that much.
ummmm first off is cherish who i briefly described eariler. she is actually zacks brother. (zack the participant) any we became pretty good friends by the end of the week. one time, at lunch after we had just dont the cheer, she was like "uhh...im so tired of doing that cheer!" and i just kind of looked at her and time froze as she realized what shed done. and then i was like "ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT, ALRIGHTALRIGHTALRIGHT! HEY!" and she glared back at me from across the table as she clapped her way through the jingle. i believe that was pizza day. we had just gotten out of class and i saw her and the other logan (looks like a sheep its really funny) power walking to the lunch line. let me just say, in that line, if your not first, your last. so i power walked up next to cherish and i was like, "no way your beating me to that line" so we raced to the lunch room. i won. but she later passed me in line. i was angry. oh ya another funny story. one day i was playing frisby (i did this alot) and i got tired so i went over to the tether ball area. cherish was there and she challenged me to a game of soccer. i gladly accepted. we played for a bit and then eventually anders, harry, and alonzo came over and were like "hey logan! still tired? now that you get to hang out with cherish?" im like "no guys im good now thanks". ahhhhh good times.
ahh colby and katelyn. they were cousins but you couldve mistaken them for siameese twins. thats why im not giving them their own paragraph. i never like talked to one of them individually. anyway i have a funny story about them but its really hard to explain in text so i wont. if you ever see me thouhg, you could ask me about it. but they were really nice and also very cute.
also i saw mckenna there. we actually didnt talk all that much, i mean i danced with her some and all but we didnt like hang out the whole week. but there was this one guy she danced with and hung out with that i am 85 to 90% sure is a homosexual. she was like "oh ya hes soo cool becuase he likes stuff i do" like musicals.
musicals. no straight guy likes musicals. he was watching highschool musical on his ipod with a diffrent girl before classes started one day. i didnt know it was high school musical. the guy next to me told me and i was like "ohhh ya that totally makes sense." plus for the variety show he did stand up he copied from bryan reagan.
ummmm classes at efy were really good...
hmmm
oh ya the dances were awesome. had a really good time. ummm lots of fun. cant remember any other stories right now. ill post more later.
