     Yesterday Rachel and I were sitting at a picnic table after dinner. I was making her a name bracelet. An intern whom we had spoken with yesterday comes up. He's pretty nice. Then a guy volunteer named Steven comes up, and we all talked. Today is Wednesday. Monday, my

sister and her friend went to Discovery Camp, the same place I had been going the last two years. That was a tough day for me. I really wanted to be at Teen Mania, but I still liked Discovery Camp and had a lot of good friends there. On Monday, Aimee let me borrow some book, like

the Hunger Games trilogy. Rachel S. is leaving Saturday. I'm sad. She is a good friend. I made her a friendship bracelet wit her name stitched into it. we went back to work today after a nice 7 day break. We didn't serve though...we cleaned. It is called the law of degeneration, as Zach

puts it. I cleaned the womens bathrooms. Actually, I volunteered. Actually, I was going to fight with anyone who got in my way. Not really. But I did clean the womens restroom!! And a nasty refrigerator with spoiled milk. The way I was crouching, I pulled a muscle in my foot

(that would hurt for the next month or so). I Skyped with my family on Monday night. And then I Skyped with Jordana (my sister) last night. So, we have two new people in our dorm. One is a missionary to South Africa, and one is a missionary to Australia. I'm a bit jealous. I want to

travel the world. Oh, and this past Saturday (the 14th), Desiree, Rachel S., J.R., Rachel L, and I all went and saw Brave. We saw it for free because the room they were showing it in had no a/c because it was broken.
