Hey y'all. That southern accent is all I had to listen to yesterday, because my group leader for the retreat I went to was from Arkansas. (I don't know why they pronouce that the way they do, Ark-an-saw, shouldn't it be Ark-an-sas? I guess that they don't want they name to be over sassy :-)). It was 6 hours long, way to long for that sort of thing to go on. It wasn't as bad as the church thingys usually are though, because the people in it at least tried to make it interesting. Besides talking about God and "Ignighting the Flame" (that is what the retreat was called), I learned a lot more about the south, because of my group leader. The NET people (National Envangalization Team) were from all different parts of the country, which was cool. They all took a year off of college to do this retreat, so they were interesting people to talk to, with all sorts of different personalities. I met a cool girl from California too. It was interesting to hear their points of view.
Yeah for a day off!! Thank you Columbus for sailing the ocean blue in 1492!!! (I hope I got that right, it would be pretty sad if I didn't.)
Story of the Day: First the Nobel Peace Prize and now action figures? The first family has now been made into action figures. How much acknoledgement do they need? I think that it was ridiculous that the President recieved the Prize because he was just in office for two weeks when he was nominated! He didn't even do anything yet! Now, the latest action figure that has come out is of Michelle, featuring her most famous feature "her bare arms". Come on. Give me a break. Read more about the figures here.
