Poetrymania

These monday, tuesday, wednesday, thursday, and fridays,
     I've been doing absurd amounts of alliteration.. and I am literally limricked out.
FOOLED YA! There's never enough writing in this world.

''What's that saying? Less is more.. NAH. That's hogwash.More is more!''
-an inspirational quote from myself 

Yes.. I was telling about you my life these days.
I've enrolled in a writing class.. so that I can learn, improve, and grow like a metaphorical flower.. in my own writing abilities. (BUT I"LL ALWAYS LOVE MY RUN ON SENTENCES AND MY COMMA SPLICES CANNOT BE TAMED.)

*pretends to clear throat* Life. Right.

Another class I signed up for.. is called ''Agriculture and Sustainable Resources''.
Agriculture for short.. Or for somewhat Scottish people like myself..

''Agri'kilt'ure"
Get it.. kilt. HA.

Or if you're an extreme agriculture fanatic, and love talking about plant life with yo groupies.. then 
''Agricult."

Back to the topic though- I've been enjoying Agriculture class. 
Walking into a greenhouse; is certainly a magical experience.. and next week my class is going on a field trip to a fish hatchery! Whoop da whoop! (All expenses paid+PIZZA)
I'll be sure to keep you updated.. or perhaps I won't. 
Meh. Probably not. Well.. Wait I probs should.. since this is my informal little web writing world.. which some of you actually read!

Okay. I'll keep you updated.

The Campfire Collection:Part One

I love campfires.  The smoke, the ash, and the way that they can bring a group of people together. Where individuals begin to share stories;of their life, their faith, and how they got to where they are today. Powerful stuff I tell you.
Today, I just got back from an amazing youth retreat up at a Camp, and about a week before that I was at a different camp..more "camp camp"(roughing it).. where I was running wild through the wilderness like a raving lunatic-but enough about that.. For the time being I am going to post the pictures/stories from the retreat I just returned from.

 Background story: We'd just finished playing a wide-game of.. umm was it pool-noodle soccer..(hence the glow sticks to show what team we were on.)Hah anyways.. I love the way my trusty old phone camera', was able to show the different dimensions to the campfire; the odd flicker of blue, deep shades of scarlet, and the glowing embers.. (I'm not a pyromaniac.. honest. ;)

This was the same fire-pit.. but on the next morning. We had a finger painting contest, and then displayed our artwork around the fire... And in our snottiest Artist impression, had to describe the story/hidden meanings behind our art. I got kind of nervous and said something stupid like..
''Uh I painted some trees..burning..uh on fire.. because you never know when that could happen in the future...and then I stuck these spitz on the tree trunks to uh-channel my inner spit?".
Fail.
Here is a picture.. of several trees. I enjoy the different tones and variations of green, as well as the dark trunks that wind their way through the forest.



And here, is a rather chaotic video of some singing around the camp-fire. Enjoy ;).

And have a beautiful day! My challenge for you today is to get outside.. with a group of friends.. or even just by yourself! Go and experience the natural beauty that God, the creator, has surrounded us with!
