Posted by Anya in : smiling is good for you , trackback

And of course there were four adults — Pastor and Mrs. B, Mr. K, and Mrs. N.  There were also 10 people from another youth group.  And now we come to actual journal part.  Please excuse ridiculous errors and put them down to lack of sleep, brain being jarred, and so forth.  Also it may be lame all around.  You don’t have to read it.  ^_^

SUNDAY

39 people on the bus, and 2 drivers, which is extremely loud.  Which is why I moved up.  Aimirgin (nickname of Antion) is sorta jealous, haha.  It’s 10:30, we’re just in NC and uh… I had dinner at McD’s with Emily, Alex, Anna, Eddie, Daniel and Britt I think.  Chicken sandwich and broccoli cheese soup, which was surprisingly good.  And now, for some reason unbeknownst to us, the bus is shut off.  Yay.  Although Antion is kinda getting his wish, it’s definitely quieted down.  So far we’ve watched Napolean Dynamite (interesting but barely heard a word) Princess Bride and partway through Dead Man’s Chest.  *yawn*  Let’s see.  Daniel “directed” traffic [when we were going to McDonald’s.  He almost got run over, too!]  I used Matt (one of my bro-for-the-week)’s phone, which is so cool.  =)  [It’s a Treo, and they are fun.]

Josh: (when the bus wasn’t working)  “Maybe I should walk outside in my bare feet and find out what’s going on?”

me:  “Sure.”  (For goodness sake, he’s less than a year younger than me and fairly sensible.)

Josh:  *delighted grin*  “REALLY?”  *does so*

Josh:  *not having found out what was wrong*  “What’s wrong?”

Mr K.:  “They say there’s one too many [Josh’s last name] on the bus.”

Josh:  *very quickly*  “I volunteer Abbey to stay!” 

me:  “She likes North Carolina, right?”

Josh:  “Yeah!”

MONDAY

We stopped about 12:45… yeah… everyone is rather “bleh”*yawn*ish, so fun.  Although it was funny, cuz I went back to the ‘lavatory’ — NOT a ‘washroom’.  Then when I tried to come out, the door was being forcibly held shut.  So I shove at it, saw the person holding it shut’s shoulder (which looked familiar), and rammed it.

Matt:  “Hey!  Who is in there?  Bryan, who’s in there?”

me:  *not wanting to wait for Bryan*  “Your sister for the week!”  [he had decided to adopt me, by the way].

Matt:  “Oh, SHOOT!”  *steps away*  “I thought it was Eddie again.”

4:41 am  Just into Georgia.  At this point Sam and I do look like twins.  Okay, zombie-hobbit-twins.  YEAH!!

6:19  That was rather amusing.  I decided to make use of this row, so I stretched out on my back, turned on Good Monsters, and then proceeded to fall asleep during the LAST SONG (Oh My God).  I woke up and was like YES!  I finally fell asleep! and then I noticed my iPod and realized that I hadn’d thear the last half of the last song.  I found it funny for some reason. 

Ugh.  *yawn*  As a pretty good example of how mind-numbingly tired we were, at our 12:45 stop I went to talk with Antion (maybe it was the 10:30 one)

Antion:  “Have you read this book?”  *holds it out backwards*  *flips it over*  *turns it rightside up*

It was, I think called Babylon Uprising and is by Ted Dekker, and the answer was NO.

It was humid when we got off in Georgia.

~~~~And now that’s it for the present.  Many more quotes will be coming soon.  Hopefully.~~~~

Yay! You posted! Now you’re forgiven. :P

And I didn’t find that boring. Especially the whole zombie-ness of it all, haha.
