I HAD A WONDERTASTIC TIME AT CAMP!!!!! IT WAS SO GREAT! ————————————————— Here is what it means now that I am officially back: I will be available to talk about anything, I will continue to post regularly. ——————-/-/————————/-/——— Ok! So I want to start off with some people I met!!! So, on the very 1st day, I see this girl walking around. Wearing a yarn tail and small wolf ears. I was SO shocked in a good way! Because I wanted to bring/ wear my gear at camp, but didn’t want people to judge me. So i decided to go up to her and tell her I like the tail and ears! I never found out if she was a therian, furrie, or other kin, but I personally found it inspiring to see her wear that! I later found out that her mom had crocheted the tail for her! Her name was Kayla if I remember correctly. Next, is Ally! Ally is just so cool! And we are super similar! For example- we both have brown hair. But also, we both -play soccer, do theatre, make gear! Have scratch, do quads! Are middle siblings! I love/d talking to her! And I got her number! She was so kind! And gave off such friendly and positive vibes! I also met Ariya. Ariya was super funny and relatable, but unfortunately our friendship didn’t work out. Here’s why- so we met on the 1st day, and we were in the same cabin. We had fun together and stuff, but my friend from school was also there, so ofc I wanted to play/ hangout with her! But then apparently Ariya started feeling left out because we (me and E (let’s call the friend I know from school E)) know each other so we’ll. And then E started feeling left out. So I’m like’ Jeez. What do we do now???’ BUT THEN. I start feeling left out cause I feel like E and Ariya are avoiding me! So we decide that let’s take a break away from each other for 1 day. And after that one day, Ariya is like , oh, I think we can’t be friends. I just don’t think it will work out. But I’m thinking, ‘we’ll, sometimes trios don’t always work out, but I wanna keep trying, but if you don’t want to then we don’t have to’ and so she doesn’t feel like trying again. So yeah. But I did get her number and friended her on Roblox. And, I’m not saying this to be mean to her, or put her down in any way, it’s just another experience I had. -/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/- Now, I learned/ was reminded of SO much while I was there! I even got baptized! So here is about my baptism!- I got baptized on July 19 alongside Ariya, Katie (a counselor) and another boy and girl. I was INCREDIBLY excited! And I am so happy to be in a new walk with the Lord! And I am joyful for the other people who got baptized, and that they get to start their new walk as well! My mom and dad were there and so were my 2 younger step sisters, and my step dad and step mom! I got baptized in the camp pool and now I try to read my Bible more, pray more, and stay close to God and look for him in everything! …………………………………………… Now. I am a picky eater. Here are some things I don’t like that might shock you- chicken, fries, popcorn, hamburgers, tacos. And you can imagine not having many food options as a picky person at camp. So here is what I ate most of the time. The things they usually served for breakfast- Breakfast sandwiches, pancakes (plain) oatmeal. But they also had fruit and yogurt. Which is what I ate most breakfasts. What they usually had for lunch- sandwiches, chicken, tacos. But they also had salad, and chips, which is what I had most times. What they usually had for dinner- taqitos, (I can’t remember anything else) I normally had salad. “””””””””””””””””” Don’t worrry. I didn’t starve. If I did, I would tell some one. But there were also things that I would eat- they had churros, chips, Ect. And, I like good, healthy foods too, but I am a home cooked girly. I honestly don’t like most fast food places! But yeah, I had things to eat, and even though the food situation wasn’t convenient for me, I was fine. ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Our camp theme was Digging Deeper. Digging deeper into Gods word and what he says, the Bible. I want to share everything I learned with you guys, but that is WAY to much to type rn. So here are some main things. ( also, I am not trying to down put any religion, identity, or belief. I am speaking completely out of my beliefs) God was a creator. He was from the very beginning of the earth. “Genesis 1:1 ‘In the beginning, God CREATED the heavens and the earth.” God is in the details. At camp we practiced looking for God in things we see everyday. For example- some Bubbles. I’ll talk about those later. God has plan and purpose for everything he created. Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you. Declares the Lord. Plans to prosper you. Not harm you. Plans for hope and a good future.” If you want to hear more, you can comment on this project, or my profile! ——————————————— So now, about the bubbles. When we were taking about looking for God in daily things, she (our leader) brought out bubbles. (Continue in notes)
She asked us how can we teach someone about Christianity/God/Bible through this? And here was my response “ When you put the bubble wand into the bubbles but don’t blow on them, it come out clear and straight, not bended. That represents us looking through the Biblical worldview. We see things as they are. But then when you blow in them, they branch out to become bubbles. That represents taking the Biblical worldview when things like doubt and grief come along. You start to see things differently. Bended. And not as they are. That is the blowing part. And when they are bended, they become other things. Other identities, religions, beliefs, Ect. And eventually those bubbles will pop. Representing how all these other world views will be silenced when the day of judgement comes. Again, I am speaking fully from how I see things. And I am not trying to force you into anything. Just sharing. So you have any ideas about how you could see God through things in h to us world? Or if you don’t believe in Christ, maybe see things through how you see them? So for example, if you are lgbtqia+ maybe you might view a the bubble thing a little differently. ——————————————— Anyways, that’s it!!!! That you for seeing this project! I will be making more projects saying that I am back from camp, but those are either for studios I’m in, or just a repeat of this project. Also, check out my featured project on my profile!!! It’s a pfp contest! I would really appreciate if you joined! ——————— You. Are. Loved!
