back from youth conference

hey all,

well i'm back from YC and it was ok. i was mainly hangin around a certain friend o' mine. we had a choice of a bunch of different service projects and i chose to chop down and move a mesquite tree. i didn't get a thorn but the bark certainly scratch my arm. and we cleaned up the persons yard too. in doing so i was stung by a wasp while trying to move a metal table top thing. we had leaned it away from the house and i was about to pick it up when a thought came to me saying check for wasps so i did. as soon as i put my head over the table thing i saw a nest and then proceded to get stung on the nose. only one came after me which seemed kind of odd but i'm not complaining. we then drug the table out to the road and one of the guys ran inside the house and got a bottle of spray deoderant and matches. i asked if i could do it to exact my revenge but he already sprayed it and lit it. we then stomped on it. my nose kinda hurt for a while but i was fine. there were a lot of nice, pretty girls including the one i was hanging out with most of the time. a lot of them seemed to be in cleburne, weatherford, or some other wards. i'm thinking about going to EFY at some point next year. everyone who goes seems to love it. i wish we were somewhere cool like denver so we could go have conference in the mountains like emily or at least do something cool. after the service projects we went to burgers lake and it was ok. it was really small and crowded full of scantily clad women and men which was really scary. you don't want to see a grown man in a speedo trust me. but it wasn't as bad as Schliterbahn. we went there 2 years ago durig our scout trip to the gulf for deep sea fishing. my favorite line from that trip was by a friend of mine. we had just barely gotten there and were trying to decide what we should do there. and Ryan said, " We don't ride the rides" what he meant was that you can't ride the rides because you're standing in line the whole time but it was funny the way he said it. anyways i got my drivers ed course while at YC and started that today. surprisingly you only have to have 6 hours of classroom time for your permit so in about a week hopefully i can be driving assuming i can get a ignition/coil for my truck. mine recently died. anyways i'll talk to you guys later.
