Day 218 - This Is Not The End.

"Last day, last chance to make a difference. After this, the story changes. You write the rest, the highs, the lows, the middles. It's all up to you. Be the change you want to see in the world!! Good luck."

^I love encouraging messages from best friends. :)

I really do feel like "after this the story changes". It's something that's been on my mind the entire two weeks, and apparently I haven't been the only one thinking this. It's like my entire summer has been building up to these two weeks, and afterwards, who knows what's gonna happen. I mentioned this to a friend earlier this week (same person who wrote me the wee note, love you! starhugstar!). I said that the two weeks I'm having feel like the centre-point of something. Afterwards, I'm stepping into something new. Life's gonna be different.

I don't really know why I feel this way. But I'm looking forward to the future with a new-found optimism. I just have this feeling that this next year, the last year I have at home, will be different. A good different. Gonna be honest, this year (from last summer until a few months ago) wasn't good. I didn't like it. (understatements are fun!) But I know that I'm now stepping into something new. A new start. This isn't the end. This is the beginning. (clichés are also fun!)
These are some pictures from today. Ah FUSED, how wonderful you have been. We were blessed to see two kids become Christians. :) I can't help but want to dance just thinking about it! *dances* I really hope I'll be able to do this again next year!

Sorry about the long post today, but I had a lot to post!

Day 215 - Looking Like Idiots...

More dancing with the kids, except this one makes us look more like idiots. :D

This picture was taken in the evening. This afternoon we were at the beach for FIGHT THE TIDE!! Woop woop!! This was a sand castle building competition and then Leaders vs Kids water fight on the beach! It was immense. I would have loved to get pictures, but my camera would have been destroyed in the process... a risk I'd rather not take.

Day 214 - "Tell The World!"

Don't want to stand here and shout Your praise
And walk away and forget Your name
I'll stand for you if it's all I do
Cause there is none that compares to You

And all I want in this lifetime is You
And all I want in this whole world is you, is you

Tell the world that Jesus lives
Tell the world that, tell the world that
Tell the world that he died for them
Tell the world that he lives again

This is a picture of us all dancing to "Tell The World" by Hillsong United. Awesome song! :D I love these kids, their faces light up when we play this song, and they dance like it's their job. :) Love it!

Day 211 - Anything For The Kids...

Today was a day for getting messy! Messy on our faces especially! :DDon't I look awesome with cream on my face? I personally think I suit it! What do you think? Well yep, it was the Talent Show / Parents evening tonight at FUSED which meant going the extra mile to be absolutely crazy! I ended up doing the rap part to "Baby" by Justin Beiber, which of course I knew none of the lyrics of! Apparently all the parents saw "a totally different side to me" tonight. Anything for the kids :)After the evening session, I hung out with some of the Swift leaders along the promenade in Newcastle, and had a bit of bant :)

I can't believe the first week of FUSED is over already! I love these kids! And I love my team mates in the Adventurers, we all had a massive group hug tonight which was awesome :)

God bless

The Banana Olympics... not intentionally inappropriate anyway...
I am fully loving FUSED. I'm in a great mood, and I just want to dance and sing! :D
