The Ravencrest Year Book

Today my fellow classmate John and I went to the Estes Park library to organize our videos and brains so that we can get a move on the video year book for Ravencrest this year. Thats right, video year book. I thought that monthly videos were intence…oh boy. This project is going to rock my world. John and I are editing the video, Amanda, Joe and Christoph are gathering footage and My is our expert picture taker. I’m really excited about putting it together though. It will be great practice for what I hope to study next year at George Fox. We are hoping to make the video as if it were a week-in-the-life of a student. Going through each day and encorprating the entire year in one week. I think it will turn out good, we just have to do it right. We are also looking to have a two-disk special dvd. the first disk would have the year book on it and the second would have all of the monthly videos as well as the Christmas play that we did back in December. And of course I would love to throw in little bouns features here and there. The down side is, that there is so much to filter through. My pictures, other peoples pictures, videos from Amanda, and so on and so forth. So much! I feel like my brain is going to melt. Once myslef and a few other buddies are able to sift though and get all of the usless junk out then that will make life a tad bit eaiser, but even then there will be lots of footage. Oh well, I guess that could be a good thing right?

This past weekend was mid-term break. Got off of school on Wedneday after morning classes. Thursday I went to Timberlineto hang out at the school and chill with Wes. They have so much snow! Sarah, Amy, and I frolicked through a feild of snow that came about half way up our shins. So much fun, trying to walk through thick powedery snow like that. Rather cold too, but so worth it. I learned how to ice skate as well. ^_^ Everyone kept telling me “no, Molly! You will fall and hurt yourself even worse than before!” But I still rocked it. Amy helped me not to fall and I felt like those kids at Holiday Skate to hold on the wall and slowly roll around the rink. Except that I did not have any wall to hold on to, I held on to Amy’s arm.

Eventually I slow skated around by myself. And I was proud of myself. Ice skating is fun and I want to do it again when I don’t have to act like a porcelain doll. Then I could go fast! After ice skating those of us who went to Timberline for the day went into town and ate dinner at a little mexican restaurant and then went back to Timberline to watch the Ravencrest vs. Timberline hockey game. Our boys put up a good fight, but in the end lost by three. However it was very fun to watch the boys battle it out, and watch the snow slowly fall to the groud. Although, the guys said that the snow on the ice was rather annoying. I’m no hockey player but I can see where they are comming from.

And after a hockey game of epic perportions those of us who rode with Andrew jumped in the car and began the very long treck home. The rest of my mid-term break was filled with hanging out at the Chalet, playing Monopoly and going out to dinner last night at Pasta Jay’s for Spencer’s birthday. A very good break indeed. Next break is spring break. How amazingly fun that will be and yet how sad it will be as well. Because that means that we are that much closer to the end of an amazing adventure of which I wish could last forever.
