My Father's Holding onto me- He gave his, Son for me- My father's holding onto me....and he wont let goooo

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE KYCK!!!!!
how uberly aweosme was it? VERY!! how life changinly challenging! how supremely uplifting!

man im tired. I jsut spent a howle 5 hours dancing to X-FILES *screeeeeaammm* for Festivale at school. Don't come at watch me ._.
but its a pretty awesome dance. Gena dn Sam are pretty awesome chorries, and Shrub i an awesome mole, even though she literally doesnt have to do anything at the moment. Not many people can rule at not doing anything :D
Anyway, i thoguht it would share waht we id at camp, becuase the talks are really only half of it.

5:30- All the northern and north shore-ers had to meet at my hous, but for some reason no one was cmoing inside...out of the cold and mosquitoes and they wouldn't eat choclate chip cookies either. And then Sly got out his guitar and it was very Koom-bai-ya-ish. I think the neighbours reaction to us would be the same as if we started roasting marshmellows on the nature strip.
Now i thnk my house has been branded by neighbourhood watch as like, Chinese hooligan hangout.

2 hour car trip, got maccas on the way adn in CPC style we were late by half an hour to the first session. The speakers were tres coolio, though it hink i liked Eugene better (maybe it was cos he was asian XD) and the hwole theme was 'FOLLOW'
Man it was like the nitty gritty of being a Christian, the part that really isn't made clear enough. you need to COUNT THE COST of what it means to actually be with Jesus, 'carrying your cross' on the road to death. Because thats waht true desciples do- if you choose Jesus, you choose death; death of your ambitions and plans for life, the plans of your family for you and the expectations of your friends and of the whole world and be alive only to Christ.
sounds cliche, but it was suddenly made clear, the height and pain of all that sarcrifce, to be lean Wholly on God our survival. It broguht to light the prices we place on Money, on grades, on school, in choosing a course which will bring the most money and security to our lives. How trully futile it really is- and the prices are all fake.
It really expressed the true-ness of ever lasting-ness of God's love, and how easy and hard it is to be soaked up in it.
WOAWWWWW

i tell you- it made me aware of how for so long ive been 'hanging around Jesus' instead of 'following\ him to death. I realised what i have to be water-tight to the influences taht draw me away from him, from laening on him and loving him like the ship that sunk in too minuets. I guess, i have to get used to the smell of rotting fish- becuase inside the ship i am safe to travel to my destination. It really makes me think of the eternal value of things. How the things in this world that we pursue so heavily just disintergrate. Sounds like everythin i jknew before, but now i know it better.
Im gonig to try to make lots of cuts for the rest of my life now so tht Jesus is the only path i walk on. A man who walks to roads at once splits his pants. remember that.

Got to know some CPC-ers better too. A little. And those warm and fuzzies were very nice (little messages that make you warm and fuzzy that people were meant ot write during the camp) i really sensed the subtlty in Aids' one XP *snore* and me and Inu got upgraded to PRESIDENTIAL SUIT, which really lokoed like a prison cell, but it was private from everoe else. We had to move becuase we weren't aloud ot put a matress on the floor int he girls dorms and so somone at the move and then there were child protection things and the only thing we could do was to move Inu with her sister to another room. But itwas funkAY.

OOOOH and the musos were soo cool and that lady had a really nice voice and the new songs we learnt and EVERYTHING,. but i think the best thing to take away with me would be a new Beyonce move. Chest-poppin' like Beyonce!!
and the cool bible verse dance.
let the DEAD Bury their own DEAD, but YOU go and PROCLAIM the KINGOM of GOD.
I kept nearly wacking Pip and Jono in the head during the proclaiming part XD But trully the dead part is my favourit.
DEAD bury their own DEAD!!
where is it from? .... luke...9 somewhere- i guess that was important to memorise too.

And then there was the near purchase of 2 toothbrushed for freakin $11:50!! int eh katoomba chemist. WHAT THE?! bleh. Me and inu totally didnt bring any toiletries becuase we each thought that the other had packed the toiletries bag. So the first nigth we had to brush out teeth with our fingers and chew gum :D HArharharharar. and then keep borrowing the Coz' shampoo and stuff.
Then there was the happy smell of the wookwork shop and the killer bread-cutter violin bow, and then funky HATTERY that sells HATS *soo many HATS!!* and Micheal shi-hee getting kidnapped. or so i thought.

Anyway, next year it should be good too :)
