i wasn't sure that i could adequately recap my experience at senior retreat so i wasn't going to, but knowing my faulty memory i will so i can remember for as long as blog exists.
highlights
*arriving at the beautiful maze of a house and being incredibly happy to see ppl
*the amazing starlit sky
*hold 'em all night - peug & andy's orange peel dessert
*pistachio nut punishments for kwan & esther after playing spoons
*sharing a room with ileen, kristy, and jane kim
*morning devotional with some golfers & a view
*getting rebuked by billy when i walked into the boys' room to wake them up - "what if we were naked?!"
*duncan's landing - splashing waves & andy's inappropriate looking mermaid impersonation
*a transparent rev ryan - a humbling realization of my calling
*eug + cards in a ziploc bag
*jacuzzi under some light rain & sparkly stars, sweating it out in the sauna with janet & dan
*picking out moldy bagels while chatting with the girls
*eating and tanning in the freezing cold w/ sharon, linda, & grace while everyone else was active.
*picking some shells and getting one back
*fighting the heat with sharon & linda in the sauna
*a really good talk with elise (i love you elise!) - wanting yet refusing to give up hope
*a rowdy game of uno with billy the cheater & john the spaz
*a traumatic accidental tap on an ordained booty, yikes!
*peug's simple yet moving msg... (is it really in me, Lord?)
*eug: "first pres is non-denominational, right?"
small group: "um... first presbyterian??"
*laughing and cracking jokes with people to whom i've never really spoken before
*bonfire
*watching and laughing at the golfers with the girls
*"do your job & do it well" - be the most compassionate, sacrificial, loving, & faithful person wherever God puts you
*last round of college retreat pictures ever
my favorite
small group time was the most pleasant surprise. with the exception of a few pairs, none of us had every really carried on a conversation for longer than 5 minutes in all of our college lives, and yet it was so incredibly easy to share. all we did was talk till the closet got stuffy... but it meant so much more. roach is hilarious, ileen will make a speech for us one day in sah-too-ri, jane will be our accountant, jenny can be found in kcpc cm for many years to come, eug will retire by 35. thanks for the awesome time guys. i'll never forget it.
