Preserved Us a Nation

Never before have I publicized a piece of my personal journal on my public blog for the world to see... but I felt I needed to do so today. In light of the Independence Day festivities coming up, I want the world to know what I truly feel about my blessed country.

My apologies to those who do not share my faith, since most of what I feel for my nation is deeply rooted in my beliefs. I refuse to abridge that which I have written, so please, if you have questions or confusion I can do my best to answer them. (Please note that I will respond to nothing that might be hateful towards my faith.) I ask you, please, to still read on and recognize what you have in this nation. I ask you to read on and recognize the lives given to bring you all that you now have.

Best Job in the World

Think of the coolest job ever.

What are you thinking of? Professional ice cream taster? Video game designer? Professional shopper? Maybe even getting paid to do absolutely nothing? How about something made up, like giraffe rider or moon decorator?

Well I'm sure they are fascinating and all, but please step aside. I have found the best job in the whole entire world.

I present to you: The EFY Counselor.

Lindsey's going somewhere...

If you wonder where she has gone... well, here's the answer.


I'm off to work as an EFY counselor. I don't know if I've been this excited for anything in... years. Yeah, in years.

In case you don't know what EFY is, it's an abbreviation for 'Especially for Youth', it's a summer camp for 14-18 year olds with week long sessions, directed primarily by people 20-25. I went when I was a kid, and ever since going, I knew I had to work there someday. It was one of the most uplifting times of my young life. Here's the official description for it.

Favorite Weather & Favorite Place

Have you ever gone out of your way to find a perfect lookout point during a rain and thunder storm, only so that you can go dance in it?

If not, I highly recommend it. There are few more effective natural highs in the world. And of course, we were at my favorite place on planet earth. I mean, look at these pictures, and the beauty of this building alone is enough...

Singing Recital

Sorry I haven't been around much this last week! Things have been a bit crazy. Prepping for an exciting new opportunity coming up. :)

But to make up for my absence, I thought maybe ya'll would want to see this. I had a recital last Friday, and I am really happy with how I did. So this is me singing Someone Like You from the musical Jekyll and Hyde.
