FREEZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

okay.... so i helped to support special olympics today.... that was fun... wanna know how? by jumping into oak hollow lake in the snow!!!!!!! omg, so cold.... can't move my lips... however they are a very pretty purple, even after taking a shower, getting put into an ambulance with a heating blanket, drinking coffee and hot chocolate, nothing just seems to be working, seeing as i have pnemonia!!!!!! haha. it was really fun though, i mean, jumping into a lake that's 33* and its snowing, not many people have that story to tell, but i do.... and i did it with my boss! how awesome is that?! i mean, it was really cool to see how much money was raised for the special olympics.

So.... tonight, along with jumping into a freezing lake, i'm getting baptised in the tub that also has no water heater, so i'm basically going to die after i get baptised... but i'm really excited. I know everyone thinks that because i'm susie's sister, i've been baptised and i'm holy and what not, because she's been so involved in everything. but i've always had the choice of if i did want to get baptized, and its always been my decision to go to church, or not, or how i want to live my life.... and in the past few weeks, i mean, i had this phase from about uh..... feb. to jan. where i wanted nothing to do with church, i just went because i didnt want people medling in my life.... so i went. but since about the first of the year, something hit me, it was like... what the heck are you doing, you can't do this on your own... and so i got over my pride and started to go to go... and my life just got 10x's better, no joke. things just started falling into place. and these past few weeks we've been having that video service with Seacoast church in CH. SC. and they kept talking about being baptised and what not, and i was like.... thats the final step i need to take... i've personally accepeted christ as my savior, i mean, i did when i was in the first grade. but i never outwardly showed it. i was afraid of what my family would or wouldn't say, i was just not ready to make the commitment to say i was a christian. but so much has happened in my life that i just feel that i need to let people know, well if you didn't know... because these past few years, i've acted christian, but didnt really qualify myself as one. but yea, i guess that's it, since this blog is def. a novel right about now.
