Back in “COMMUNITY”!
So let me begin by describing a few of the complexities (pros/cons) of living with the “COMMUNITY” of YWAMness. Firstly you get to meet AMAZING people from everywhere between Timbuktu and your grandma’s house! So you’re steeped in culture, like a huge pot stewing curies, rice, Big Macs, biscuits, and fajitas all at once. It’s NUTS but a crazy cool learning experience. Then you have the spiritual benefits such as worshiping with over a hundred other insanely passionate youth who love God and want to spend their life showing it. However, there are cons… and almost anyone here could attest to these, such as: sleeping in a room maybe twice the size of mine at home with 18 other “WONDERFULLY” fragrant dudes (Imagine what that pot of stew smelt like… and your not far off =), or the way that every time you enter the dining area you come out smelling like whatever’s been cooked that day, and by far the most difficult… finding peace a quiet simply to read and relax.
Now in saying all that, I am RIDICULOUSLY blessed! And I am SO grateful for where I am and what I am doing… yet it has its challenges.
Ok, setting that aside, I have to tell you that the school I am participating in is off to a great start. I have just finished my first video project which was intended to simply gauge where we were at in our skills. The only parameters of the project were to create a one minute film (exactly one minute!), in a sink or swim fashion. Our school leaders thought they would throw us in the deep end and see who could swim. Well I believe I proved I could Doggy Paddle. 
I couldn’t post the video straight to this site but have a link that you can follow in order to view it: http://www.flickr.com/photos/9214254@N03/4012683141/ or you can view it on my facebook if you have an account.
Thank you for reading
God Bless
