So the other weekend when I sang in church, Erin tricked me into agreeing to sing this weekend for Inspiration Weekend at Tyrifjord Academy. So here I am.
The speaker for the weekend is Dan Vis from the US of A, and the topic is "Think 20/20" - basically learning to change our thinking on how to reach out to those around us... he's a fairly decent speaker, slightly too focused on the US perhaps, but interesting.
Along with singing, I also have the duty of lifeguarding the little pool here in the mornings - from 6 to 7am - which, despite the early hour, makes me happy, as it has been forever since I have gotten near a pool.
Tyrifjord is a beautiful location; the school is on a lake, however, not an actual fjord, but it's breathtaking nonetheless. The weather could be nicer, but you can't have everything.
There are people here from Finland, Sweden, Denmark, and I don't remember where else, along with our very culturaly diverse students from EBS. It's pretty cool. I had a German lesson today. :)
Been here since late yesterday afternoon, and leaving Sunday evening. I am hoping the whole weekend is a really good experiance.

Wow...You don't know how envious I am. I SO wish I could have been there for the whole experience and be with all my BEST friends--you guys!
But, we had our own little weekend with Dr. du Preez and Dan Augsberger. It was incredibly busy because I had to play the piano for all sorts of stuff, but it was also a big blessing. It's just something else putting it to practice, but God is really helping.
Thanks for the pictures! I miss you!!!!!!
