HOLA!
Well, I am pretty sure everyone had an AWESOME time at YC last weekend. I did. I especially liked the TobyMac concert!!! It would be awesome if people put comments up about things like YC (Hint! Hint!). Anyhow, this Friday something is happening that I am not entirely sure of; but it will definitely be good! It may have something to do with money.
By the way, I was looking on this website that listed different Christian bands and such. Among them I found this band that I think is Christian too, and it's rock (so far so good :D), and it's French! They actually sing in French and English. Pretty talented! I listened to it on http://www.myspace.com/nannup because the band is called Nannup and that's a really funny name but it's actually a city or town in Western Australia.
But it may not be so good for you people that don't know French because then it'll be like gsdgjksdlghsdkjg...and you'll be like what?
I shouldn't have to remind anyone of this one!!! Hopefully you received a sheet from Michelle about the time we will leave the church and other important info. If not, I will summarize it for you here:
We leave the church 30 minutes before each day starts and we arrive back at the church 45 minutes after it ends.
You have to buy your own food there or bring food from home. You can bring a bag that is put in a bag check area. You have to be responsible for your own money, and Pastor Brad won't give you any! Bring about $20/day for food if you are buying it there.
And of course, everyone has to behave (i.e. stay in all the main sessions, check in with your group leader at the time agreed upon with your group, and overall be good!). OTHERWISE, YOU HAVE TO GO HOME! (I'm not joking with you. They are Pastor Brad's rules.)
For a schedule of what's happening, and the bands playing at certain times go to:

Then look under blog updates and click on the PDF final event schedules under Final Schedules.
This week is also another youth service at the church and you have to come to find out what will be happening!!!
YC is next Friday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Heeheee...you can tell I can't wait for summer and warm weather and Hawaii... actually I'm not going to Hawaii this summer but I can pretend... :D
Well, it is another youth service at the church this Friday so come to find out what we are doing and what Pastor Brad will be talking about!!!
P.S. I can't wait for YC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, all I can tell you is that what we are doing this Friday is a surprise and you won't find out until then. See you there!!!
By the way, did you ever imagine what would happen if you had a huge bouquet of helium-filled balloons and they started to pull you up, up, up... I started thinking about balloons because of surprises and surprise birthday parties but apparently there is such a concept. It's called cluster ballooning. You wear a harness and have large, helium-filled balloons strapped to you. You release a ballast to go up and to go down again you just simply pop some of the balloons.
One of the funniest balloon flights was in 1982. Larry Walters strapped 42 helium weather balloons to his lawnchair because he thought it might lift his lawnchair a bit. Instead, he went up 16 000 feet! He actually survived this and now balloonists have even flown higher!
I WOULD CALL THIS A PRETTY EXTREME SPORT!!!
I got my information about cluster ballooning from http://www.clusterballoon.org/
