Memorial Day Fun!

Today, we got to sleep in a little but today. It was great! Then we went into work for a couple hours. I got to go to the office and help organize PC cases. These are cases that holds everything that I will need for the week. I really got to talk and get to know a PC and another event staff. It was one of the highlights of my day. Then we went back to Ozark to take down some sets so that we can load them into the trucks this week. I felt a little useless while over there just because I had no idea what was going on and what needed to be done. I would ask people and they would say go take this to the trash so basically all I did from 12:30 to 3 was take stuff to the trash and paint.  You know that was a little hard for me. But I think it was something that God has been working with on me. You see I'm someone who likes to do big ideas. I like doing something that actually makes a difference but really the small things are also big things too. If I didn't take the trash out, it may have not been done and the auditorium would be full of trash that would get in the way of everything else. I didn't do much of taking stuff down. I didn't do much of the big stuff that a lot of the other people were doing but sometimes the things we consider to be small are not small. Our boss for today asked 6 people to take the trash out and they didn't. This was probably because they had many other jobs that needed to get done. He then asked me to do it and then every time after that he would come to me and tell me this needs to go to the dumpster. It's something that needed to be done and it was the perfect job for me because I could actually do it. Anyway, we finished with that then went to happy hour at Sonic for some drinks and snacks. CIY then had a big Memorial Day party for us and the staff. We ate and played whiffle ball. The whiffle ball game was staff against event staff. Of course we did not win but I actually hit the ball and it was a pretty nice hit. It was awesome! Lol I got a kid out but that's ok. We then came back and a girl and I decided to go on a walk. The walk was a little scary but we had some friends come rescue us and we played sand volleyball to end the night. Today was a lot of fun and I'm beginning to realize that I'm making some lifelong friends and I've only been here a full week today. It's so cool and I can't wait to see what it looks like at the end of the summer.
