peace, out.

OH HEY--I GOT TO ACCEPT MY FIRST RECRUIT YESTERDAY! YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HEY KIDS!!

HEY KIDS--WHASSUP?! Wow....I am sooooooooooooooooo tired today. I can not express how tired I am. It's ridiculous, but all good.

So, the last few days have been cool. The first rehearsal camp is up and going, and I've had the chance to help lead music, which has been pretty sweet. Sang a special last wednesday, and then this past Sunday, sang with one of the guys here, Cameron, who has an AMAZING voice, that was really fun for me. Then tomorrow is my last time leading music in the morning...how sad:0) But it's all good.

so, I think that I need glasses. Have I mentioned that before? Esp. now with this whole computer job thing:(

Still haven't cashed my first check yet. Ridiculous, eh? They won't let me open up a checking account here, which is soooooooooooo dumb. So then the place that I have to cash my check at will charge me $5!! like what?!

So how cold is it in PEI these days, eh? Sounds warm, from what ya'll been talkin' bout. I have a picture of me on top of a snowbank (while I lived at Bev's) hanging on my cubicle wall. Everyone here can't believe that I lived in that stuff!! (and almost neither can I!)

Hey, ya'll. kind of lonely, too. Just so you know. But I joined a women's bible study last night, and it's a study in the OT!! by Beth Moore! Ever excited me!

got's to go. EB--love ya'. Update me on your new adventures! I'm sooo proud of you!
JB: I'll be sad if you can't come visit me. But I understand!

peace, out, hommies.

hey ya'll. I know, I know...it's been a while. My bad. But I don't have a pc at home anymore, 'cause I've moved INTO MY APARTMENT! And have already gotten my 1st paycheck. Scarey:) I'm terrified of life. I've come to that conclusion. anyways...that's been me. I work8 hours at my desk on the computer and phone...so I'm not usually in the mood to be on a pc or phone. So I'm sorry, but don't expect too many phone calls, my dearest Canadians.

well, 24 began. I saw the first two, but then was unable to see monday nights, so I'm really sad, to the point of anger!! But, I think my friend Matt may just have recorded it, so we'll see.

erin, I'm sooooooooo proud of you for goin' out there! YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW EXCITED I AM FOR THIS JOURNEY YOU'RE ON! ENJOY EVERY MINUTE OF IT!!

peace, out guys. sorry...

One Week Tomorrow.

Wow...isn't my life just crazy.

So I will have been here in SoCal one week tomorrow. Totally crazy. Totally. I can't believe it. I still have to learn to work the phones and the computer, but other than that...its all just making those pohone calls, tryin' to get recruits. But I'm excited:0)

So today is "the Lord's Day". Joshua Harris says in right when he says, in his book, "Stop Dating the Church", that our entire week should be based upon the Lord's day, not Monday, or Friday, but His day. I could go on, but it's hard for me to put it into words....and I don't really remember how to put it....anyways.

So, Erin, you had asked me something. I don't remember what it was either. Oh my life. Well, starting tomorrow, I stare at a computer, learning 'bout all the ex-cons (ex-continentals) and applicants...and am on the phone all day, trying to get people to tour!! From 9 am to 6 pm. The beach? Well, when I move into my apartment, I will live 7 min. walking, from the beach. So, I'll get to run in the mornings and stuff. I'm excited!! love life? Um, don't have one:0) As my oversized post card says, "Boys are Stupid: throw sticks at them"!! And, I will put that up at work tomorrow...:0)

got's to go. love you all.

ARRIVAL: 3:00 pm western time.

Can you believe it? I'm here...in California. Absolutely ludicrous. Here I am, relaxing after my first day of work. WITHOUT BRINGING WORK HOME. Now, not to say that I never will, but not really. There's not a lot I can do w/o being at the office during those particular hours. (phone calls...all day long:0)

Many flying adventures yesterday. Every flight was delayed....so I was constantly running to my gates...great fun. But the Lord was good: sent me Jerry on my 5 hour flight...good guy from Phoenix. Laughed and talked the whole time. My shuttle ride to Dean's house: totally almost (like what is almost?) gave the gospel to the shuttle driver. It was amazing,....I don't even know his name. but I know that our shuttle ride was encouraging to him. Everyone was always talking! he said it never happens!! And esp. not posititve convo's! it was awesome!! pray that this man (all of them actually) gets saved!!

well, I'm tired. And should probably start heading to bed soon. Love you all...

DID I EVER MENTION...

Did I ever mention how I really DON'T LIKE flying, SOMETIMES?

Here I am....2 feet from the airport. To wake up in 9 hours (4 am...1 am. CALI time)...to get on a plane in 12 hours. Whatever. This is ridiculous.

thanks for all the comments guys. Sorry I didn't write sooner, and haven't been writing emails. In Calais, I can only check my email at the town library...

very soon it'll be..... shauna@continentalsingers......very interesting:0)

love,
shauna marie
