Some of us go home on break or go to our girlfriend or boyfriend’s house, or to family and friends. Some of us do a mixed combination of the previous. I went to my girlfriend Amy’s house over the first weekend of break, and then spent the rest of my time on break hanging out with Hans Shenk and his loverly family. Amy and I hung out and went to the thrift store. We even got some Chinese food and watched some movies. Her mother bought me a GI-JOE and some candy from Wal-Mart. She even made me some peanut butter and jelly French toast (I know, it was amazing). The quickest way to get to a man’s heart is through his stomach and his inner child (also his sweet tooth.)
Like I said a few moments ago, I spent the rest of the time with Hans. We just hung around and were super lazy for almost a whole week (that’s what you do on break in case you didn’t know. Unless you worked and made money, then you are exempt.) Bennet Wenger came to hang out with us as well, so we grabbed Levi Ziegler and made an evening of it. We went to the thrift store also (I love the thrift store.) Levi and Hans bought some emo clothes and altogether it was a blast. It was almost as fun as my time with Amy. Hey, I said almost. Hans and I also went to the Plain City Public Library and went skiing on the web. I borrowed a book and a movie.
There was even a group that went on tour with Veritas, a group of individuals that perform in a band in different churches in various states. They traveled to Maryland, Delaware, New York, and Pennsylvania for their tour over our break from Feb. 14 to Feb. 22. It is usually a lot of fun but if you are like me then you will eventually want to come back to the Rosedale Bible College campus, and hang out with friends and just ultimately goof off until classes start.
Whatever you may choose to do on your break, have fun with good friends and even better family, even band members. Eat good food (**smiles at Amy**) and watch movies that are edifying (Well, I guess that is a matter of personal conviction). Have lots of fun and do a ton of stuff that you normally wouldn’t do on campus. Tell me about it later so I can put it in a future blog.
