| Seeing as my last update was July 26th and it's September 1st today I
thought well heck, why not go write a blog entry, haven't done that in
a while. Thus I am here. Since the last time I've been doin all sorts
of fun and cool stuff.
August 11-22 was my trip to World Youth Day for those of you who didn't
know. It was amazing! We saw so much stuff and every day was so jam
packed it felt like three days in one. Sadly we didn't actually get to
see the Pope except for on the jumbo screens and I know some people
complained about that and thought it ruined their trip but think of it
this way, we were still sooooo much closer than most people will be to
any pope in their entire lifetime. It definatly made Toronto seem that
much more amazing seeing as I was about 5 feet from JPII. Our trip
consisted of flight to Rome and three days there, then drive to Assissi
and one day there. Next we went to Munich and visited Dachau and then
we drove to Koln where we stayed for the entire time of World Youth
Day. Met lots of cool people, fell in love with a crazy German kids
show, and best of all came closer to God through seeing youth from all
over the world in one place for the same reason, a love for God.

| I'm so bored. I haven't been this bored in quite a long time. Nicole
said she wanted to do something after work so hopefully my insanity
will soon be over (yes, boredom has driven me to insanity).
|
| |
| Grrrrr. I just finished Harry Potter and I'm so mad. How could she do
that? Why did she do that? I can't believe it ended up like this!
Luckly I'm doing something w/Matt tonight so I won't drive myself to
the point of insanity or possibly tear the book out of my brother's
hands and rip it to shreds.
