Well this is my first blog and I’m not so sure how to start things off, so I’m just going to jump the gun and tell you some things going on in my life.
I just got back today from touring with my friends on warped tour and it was one of the best times I’ve ever had! I’m so tired now from it but at the end I just thank God so much for giving me a chance to experience it all. I actualy talked to my friends about how amazing God is and all the things in my life he has given me. I had also convienced them to try going to a sub-culture church which I’m really excited for them to try it out. So something crazy happend while we were in Miami Florida. I had walked back to the van for water, only to find that we had been robbed! the front side window was smashed in, the had taken a Mac Book Pro ( worth about $3,000) all the bands money, everyones wallets (including money and IDs), three red shirts, the side mirror, a red poweraid, and my friend Tim’s flip flops. There were about 8 cops helping us,so one of the cops tells me to check the pawn shops to see if the guy pawned the Mac Book. I told the guys and they went to the closest one which was half a block away,so my friend Geoff walks in and sees it on the counter, the man at the pawn shop said he had bought it for $75 from a man about 20 mins ago. So the cops had gotten it back for us. That’s all we got back from this but it was the most important thing (because of the files on it). All in all I don’t believe I will be going to Miami anytime soon.
In other news, I’m starting to worry about the money for my internship. I was supposed to get the money from my fathers work ( Florida Crystal) but they havn’t given me any word, or notice about that yet. So the only thing I can do is have faith, pray, and get my sponsor letters out. My church (xchurchx) is going to help me, we plan on having a bake sale, and a big dinner, than I can give my testimony and share with everyone why I am doing my internship. I know God wanted me there I just have to overcome the trials. So please pray for me I can use any help I can get right now.
Summer camp at work ends soon. I’m excited yet very sad. After working in the same school for 3 years and having the same group of kids during that time. Having to say Good bye is going to one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. I see the same group of kids 5 days a week for 2-8 hours a day. I know it is for the best though, I need to prepare myself for this year coming.
Well I’m off now.
God Bless-
Ashley King.
