this week has been absolute craziness. I thought that the week of the celebration would be relaxing for us students. We had no lectures scheduled and we were all packed out of our rooms and sleeping in the classroom... so we really didn't have anywhere to have classes... BUT... we had massive lectures. More than you would think possible. We have been busy from 7am- 10pm everyday, and thats not even an exageration. We have about 45 minutes between lunch and the afternoon lecture... and then about 45 mintues between dinner and the evening lecture... but its insanse... this is our days.
Wake up : 7
Breakfast 7:30-8:30
Lecture 9-1230... with a small coffee break somewehre in the middle.... which is chaos with 700 people all getting coffee at the same time.
Lunch from 1230-2
Lecture from 2-4
Dinner at 5
Lecture at 7-930 ( but usually till 10)
and then lights out at 11..
that gets really tiring after a week with 700 people and lectures were sometimes so difficult to sit through. The one night we had nonstop lecture from 7 until 1030 by loren cunningham (the founder of YWAM) and it was really interetsing... but 3.5 hours is a really long time to be sitting in your chair without moving... and dont even try to get out to pee because we were so crammed together it was impossible to get out once you were in...
It was a good week though. God did amazing things and it was cool to be part of this 50th aniversary jubilee. I cant believe i met loren and darlene cunningham.. .crazy.
Today most people pack up and go home... and then tonight we have the 30th aniversary celbration for Restenas... (this base) and then tomorrow... we are taking a sabath and putting the cleaning off until monday... except we all have our journals due at 530 pm... and its not like we've had one spare minute to work on them all week... so tomorrow will be a massive journal party in the classroom...
sorry its been so long between posts... i've been too tired at night to post!
