The Jedi Council of St. Paul's

I went to parish council last night to help represent the youth of the parish as we checked in with the council-members on how we were doing. It was pretty fun actually and made me even more glad to be going to St. Paul's. The people on council are incredibly supportive of and interested in the youth of the parish and were really glad to have us there. I wasn't sure how much interest there was in having us sing now that our regular pianist is back (he had injured his knee, so we made a youth choir to help sub in for him), but I'm thinking that we'll definitely be back singing sometime soon. I was thinking before going that we might need a  full-time youth representative on council, but seeing the people who are on it now, I know we've already got strong support. And that's really just awesome. I think this will be "my church" for a long time and I'm really excited about that.

My goals for Lent

are as follows:

• Get through the Math video course we have
• Start the "student life" project I'm supposed to be leading
• Enter the Penfield photo contest
• Use my camera more often
• Push myself to play harder piano pieces
• Try to find a job
• Be open-minded
• Play lots of music
• Keep active
• Be kind and friendly
• Practice Driving
• Start singing at church again
• Be confident
• Write a lot
• Do stuff all the time
• Sleep
• Be adventurous
• Read more books
• Enjoy myself
• Read The Bible- to myself and aloud
• Get up early consistently
• Feel comfortable with myself
• Stop teasing people

I'll keep posting on how things are going. With a list that long, something's gotta happen soon.

So Lent is coming up. Like tomorrow. I think I'll resolve myself to trying to get more done, specifically in a efficient and enjoyable manor. Maybe I'll make a list of goals for things I'd like to get done, that's kinda fun. After I write it up I'll put it on here, where I'll hopefully post with good news on how things are going. 

That's all for now.
