Not Much Happening

Greeings,

I would just like to say that the title is a complete lie. So much has been happening. I can only cover the big events. Maybe I'll mention some of the other points of excitment later.

I guess I'll start way back at March 9th and 10th. The speech tornement went very well (despite the fact that it was rather small) and I think everyone enjoied themselves. I was entered in persuasive and impromtu (did I already say that?). As usual, our club (AOSDA) basically swept everything. One guy won 1st place in impromtu and homurous duo. By the end of the awards ceremony, my hands were so tierd from clapping that it hurt to turn a door knob. Afterwards, we rearranged everything in it's correct place and headed over to Marmon Valley Farms for the after-tornement fellowship, which was fun.

On March 13th we had a boy scout troop meeting election night. I'm now the SPL in my troop.

Moving right along: on the 17th I got my driving permit. All beware. I do have to say that some of the questions on that test were pretty silly. Such as: Who has the right of way when two cars pull up simotaniously to a 4-way intersection? Answer B was "The person who honks his horn first."

19th: My Eagle Scout Board of Review. That was fun. No, really it kind of was. Basically, three guys sit around and ask me questions about scouts.

23th and 24th: The first campout of the year. Isaac probably has more about this on his blog. The couse of events was get there on Friday evening, sleep, do an orienteering course on Saturday morning and hike 7 miles with 50lbs on our backs in the afternoon. This event really deserves another post. I think I'll have to write up a different one just for it.

Today: Went to church. Pastor just finished going through Song of Solomon. I'm helping out in the 1st grade class which is lots of fun. The kids are so fun to work with. This week we were studying vineyared workers in the Bible. We talked about Ahab and Naboth's vineyard. The teachers weren't trying to go this way, but we wound around to a discussion on the death of Jezebell. All the girls were pretty grossed out. Enjoyable.
