Hello loves,

Let's see, what has happened since the fabulous Chris Tomlin concert?  Well, not too much as far as during the week goes.  I made a resolution to go to the gym four times last week and only went once.  I got soaking wet running from the Visual Arts Building to my room (the farthest darn classroom from Libra).  I ate lots of fabulous leftovers from Easter and accidentally dropped a bunch of delicious turkey on the floor.  It was sad.  See?  Nothing too interesting from the week.  

BUTTTTT, this weekend was great!  Some friends and I went to Lakeland to stay with my suitemate Ali's family.  Originally, we were going to go to Bush Gardens on Saturday, but then decided to do pottery and hang out instead, as we are all trying to save funds right now.  Sooo....Saturday was wonderful.  We slept in till 11:00, had pancakes and bacon, went to Ali's cousin's house and played with baby possums, got locked out of Caitie's car and went to the dock and took pictures while we waited on the AAA guy, painted pottery, ate, sat around a campfire and played with a bug, and...duh duh duh...learned the Hoedown Throwdown from the Hannah Montana movie!  Yes...we watched her teach it over a youtube video and learned it.  Don't hate....we're actually pretty good at it. haha...

So I'll leave some pictures from this weekend.  Hope you all have wonderful Monday's and see you very soon in LaBelle!  

Love,
Brit

I am not forgoooteeenn.....*dances*






Ok so I'm totally listening to "Not Forgotten" as I write this blog.  It's kind of become my jam since Saturday evening.  The experience of the concert can't really be put into words.  Israel and the New Breed and Chris brought different aspects to the show that were both fantastic!  

Israel has such a fun spirit and every single song made me want to dance.  And dance we did! :)  I'm pretty sure that our row was the craziest in the entire amphitheater.  His kids came out at the end of his set which was so sweet and awesome.  They are crazy just like him.

And then there was Chris Worship-Is-What-I-Do Tomlin.  Yes, that is his actual middle name.  We're tight, remember?  There is nothing I could write about him that I haven't written before after attending one of his nights of worship (aka concerts).  q3;waeofkln;laskdfj.  Amazing.  It was awesome to hear new songs from "Ello Love" *in British accent*.  At times it was kind of awkward because I'm pretty sure he saw our group from stage as we often started the jumping/clapping of the entire audience.  But it was great....we even saw Louie Giglio!!!  Emily and I almost started chanting, but we somehow restrained ourselves.  Christy Nockels was there too and she just has such a beautiful voice.  It was a great addition to Chris's set.  

I'll leave some pictures that I got.  Probably not any from the show because none of them were really good, but some from before were cool.  It was a great weekend for sure!

Love you guys and am so glad that we got to share the weekend together!!!

Short update

I guess this isn't big news anymore since you all know, but looks like I'll be spending my summer in Franklin, TN working as an intern for Inpop Records.  I leave May 16 and return August 16.  

As much as it's really exciting, it's definitely nerve-racking too.  Coming to college was not nearly as unknown, considering I'd been to UCF a million times before, and already had friends (and family) up here.  Nashville will definitely be a crazy experience.  At this point, I'm so thankful to the Lord for the opportunity, and it seems like all is falling into place. 

There is a woman at Inpop who rents rooms out of a house and I think I'll be living in one of those for my stay.  The only roommate thus far is Breezy, Inpop's graphic designer and an sweet photographer.  And best of alllll...she went to UCF too!  Haha...she looks great, and I'm excited to have her up there.  

I'm pretty sure that's all that's been blog-worthy lately.  I'm going to get working on microeconomics homework before I  catch the shuttle to the Rosen campus to work out my summer deal.  Whew!

Hope all is well!

Love,
Brit
