Frankie Manning


The biggest contributor to Lindy Hop died at age 94 yesterday, a month before his 95th birthday. i am so sad i never got to dance with him, there was always work or something i had to do when he was in town. so depressing. i am so glad he was born, otherwise my most favorite hobby would truly not exist.

Amsterdam

My heart calls for it everyday, how can i not go back? i know the Lord has called me to "finish what i start" aka Bible School... but then afterwards how do i go about moving back to Amsterdam? im already getting excited about it and email people about it. i just don't want to have to write people asking them to sponser me; if the Lord places it on their heart then they can give but i want to work for it all. how do i do that though? especially when it comes to visas. i just really need to not worry about it and free fall into the Lord's will; letting Him guide me and provide. haha its so hard though! i am so excited to see what God does in my life, i can wait to travel again!

Brother of Mine

He is so talented and anointed! i am in complete utter awe of how much God has blessed him. He sang two incredible songs on Easter at our church service. the first one was in old hymn that he sang by himself, which gave me chills, and the second was with the band and he hit these amazing notes that he has not been given the chance [until now] to sing in front of anyone.. it literally brought tears to my eyes, let the world know that Michael Best has an anointing upon his life and through the Lord he will create incredible music that will reach thousands of hearts. i am so proud of him!

Woodward West

My friend Linnea told me about this camp called Woodward West that she's been working at for years and said that they needed a housing director for the Summer. I wasn't so sure about it but after I prayed about it, and found out that the dates worked perfectly for school, and the money was good, and I just felt a peace about it I decided to try it out. Now here I am at Spring Camp and it's so amazing! its in Tehachapi and its beautiful here! i was basically testing the waters this week but by the first day i knew i wanted to do it all summer. the people are amazing and chill... all skaters or riders or whatever so pretty much the cutest kids with long hair, skinny jeans and vans.. love it. i wanna put them in my pocket. and i love being slightly in charge.. people come to me with challenges or questions and i fix them or find a solution.. I'm busy and i get a walkie talkie :) i feel so important. but i really do love responsibility so its really a rad job.

i have also been praying about going to the Seattle campus next semester... it would be a little cheaper, a change in scenery, and more chill. i really feel the Lord is calling me to fellowship. with Him and others, its harder to do that with the busy atmosphere in Murrieta. i love it but it will be nice for a change. I'm like 99.9% sure the Lord wants me there... and the school starts like 5 days after Murrieta so i would have more time to go home repack and stuff and drive up and I'd get to stop by San Fran and see Lindsay LaBonte.. i miss her.

lots of great things happening.. the Lord is so good to me.
