Sorry I didn't post anything yesterday on here, comp was being retarted.
day 3
We had to be up at 6:45 in the morning to make breakfast at 7:30. Since I shower in the evening, didn't take me long to get ready. I walked over to the pavilion with Beth and Kelly since they were ready same time I was. We get to the pavillion around 7:15, and only most of the girls and one or two guys were there. The residents were on a trip that day, so most of them would be gone. A few were there though. Out of the people I was hanging out with, only Ethan made it before breakfast started. Ladies first, of course
By the time breakfast was over, I was sitting at a table with Ethan, Seth, George and Amber, and they had all gotten their food.
Then it was time to figure out what jobs we were being assigned to. There were a few different groups, Greenhouse, landscaping, barn, and potato barn (potato barn was mainly getting stuff around for the yard sale over the fri and sat we were there). Greenhouse ended up being the largest group that consisted of, BJ, Amber, Hannah, myself, Danielle, Jared, Ryan, Jaybez, Emily, Kim, and Seth. The residents that were working with us were Dylan and Alex (whom I don't have a pic of, sorry). Once we got there, we found out that the person who ran the greenhouse, Dawn (don't have a pic of her either, sorry. Unless I can find one on the site...), was in training cause she was new. So, Ben, who had used to be a resident and now had a summer job working at the greenhouse, and Alex were to be our leaders until thurs when Dawn got back.
There was a lot of nothing to do. We spent an hour milling around, Alex and Ben trying to find stuff for us to do. One job found was to clean pots, so some people (I forget who, I didn't do that) pulled gloves on and got to work using something stronger than bleach to wash them. Emily, Kim, Ryan, and Jaybez went to work cleaning the greenhouse (it was over 100 in there, and around 90 outside). Seth, Amber, and I were given the random job to fill pots with dirt and load them onto carts of some kind.
Seth had opened another bag of dirt for us to use, and it came out of its bag almost completely whole. I decided to jump onto it to break it down, and ended up sliding onto my rear end (but it was fun!). I had stood up and moved away to get most of the dirt off of me, and was turning back around to get back to work. About half of the block of dirt was left, and Seth had kicked it. Dirt showered over me. Seth had gotten me, gotten me good. Later on, after a water break, I had a foam cup filled with dirt. I fake threw it at Amber, who didn't want to have to re-shower, so she sorta freaked. She laughed, and we talked for a moment, then i whipped around and threw it on Seth. It got all over him, and you could see a huge stream of dirt down half of his neck. It was hilarious. He picked up a snowshovel and dumped a shovelful of dirt over my head.
Yeah, a pillow fight the day before, and a dirt fight this day.
After we finished, we sat around doing nothing for awhile. Danielle and I sat in the shade of one of the pot filled carts, and Ben and Seth were not too far from us, talking. We kinda were in the conversation too, when we felt like talking. I'm not quite sure why, but Seth had pulled change out of his pocket. Then he started throwing it at me. I threw it back, but my aim really sucks, so I didn't hit him half the time (
). Danielle told me that she was pretty sure he likes me. I'm not too sure, but she is his sister.
Kelly came by soon after that, to take pictures. Alex and Ben were starting to round us up and head to a nearby garden area that we had to pull weeds in. That feild was weed infested. I sat down and got to work, next to Danielle. Seth came and sat by me, and wasn't too motivated to do the weed pulling, but did so anyways.
Lunch was interesting, we had to clear the wooden building of the rocking chairs so Mike (our Tech guy) and the band could start setting up for the worship that evening. I sat at a table anyways, and Seth sat with me after he got his lunch. That meal, we had a table all to ourselves.
After lunch, it was another 2 hours of weed pulling before it was rec time. Our group went to the beach that afternoon. The waves wern't too high that time, so I wasn't hurt. Seth stayed out of the water, he told me he didn't like the water due to an incident where he almost got his neck snapped. I was blind, so I stuck near Ethan and George.
When we returned, it was dinner time. I don't remember much of that. After dinner was worship time, and George had wanted to try my marching sticks on the drumset at first, but after it was set up and we were trying them out on the set, the drum heads were too lose for them. So I let Seth play with them. During the worship time (which was jumping, literally) I stuck in the back with Seth, mainly cause he had my sticks.
After that (sorry, bad sentence structure, but I'm being rushed) we loaded everything up, so the pavillion could be used tomorrow. We did an icebreaker game with the residents, whom had returned, I think the game was called "do you love your neighbor?". I can't really describe it, take too long (sorry). For our Devo that night, after the game, we went to a much calmer beach called the "sound" and sat on these huge rocks that were cluttered together. On the van ride down, since I have more empathy than the normal human, i can sometimes sence peoples emotions, but I very rarely ever detect emotions at myself, I felt this HUGE blast of resentment that somebody felt toward me. It was so strong it depressed me. I didn't know I did anything to anybody. My guess it that it was Linaie (the two-faced type of girl) whom had attached herself to George (cause he's such a pushover) cause I knew George from school and was hanging out with him quite a bit and she hadn't ridden in my van on the way up.
Our Devo was mainly our thoughts shared (not many people spoke up) and a few songs. Then we went to Taco bell for fourth meal. I sat in a corner, and since I look tired when I'm depressed, I sat there and tried to sort out my thoughts and looked tired. The people who sat down after they got their food just passed me off as tired too. Amber sat at the two seater table I was at, and asked me if I was tired, after she had gotten her food. I shrugged and she passed it off as a yes. I went to the bathroom, and when i came back out, somebody had taken my spot. So I sat in the other corner. Patrick (our minister, BJ's the youth group minister) came over and told me he didn't want me by myself, and put me right in the middle of everybody else. in the aisle. I sat on the windowsill, cause I wanted a wall to my back. Sam gave me his spot, and sat in the spot I had left to sit on the windowsill. The person next to Sam left to go do something, and my spot was empty again. So I moved back there. Amber finished her meal, and went and did something. Seth, George, Linaie, and Ethan were at the table across from mine. George asked if I was tired, and I shrugged. Seth came over to my table and basically demanded I tell him what was wrong. I was slightly startled, I'm not used to people seeing through me.
"It's a long story." I told him.
"Can you make it short?" he asked.
"Nope."
"Okay, storytime then."
(I felt like i was little again writing that like that
)
So I had to explain everything to him. He pulled the typical guy thing and asked Linaie if she had a problem with me. I didn't put my head down on the table, but tried to explain to Seth that its not going to work that way. Emily backed me up when she called across a few tables and said, "Seth, you can't DO that with girl things!"
But he cheered me up. And I suppose thats all that matters. After Taco bell, it was bed time. I'll post pics later.
Nice bed.
That plush soccer ball thing is mine, btw
