This weekend all of us MAD students went to the mountains for two nights. It was cool to finally see the whole crew in one place at the same time. The place where we stayed was so pretty, though the bedrooms looked like they were straight from a horror movie that takes place in an asylum or something... It was creepy. Annnnnyway...
During almost the entire weekend we all shared our life stories. It took a while, as there was almost 40 of us and one story lasted from 5 to 20 minutes. But it was very intresting, and it got pretty intense. When it was my time to share I just cried my eyes out and by the time I was finished with it I was soaking wet. But it was cool and I felt like God really worked through the vulnerability. Later last evening we had a worship session and intercession. It was good. God did some powerful stuff, tho I'm not gonna get into the details.
Althogether the weekend was frikkin amazing. Everyone's so great. I feel like every moment I spend with these people is a party like no other. What's funny is that everybody keeps complementing my clothes. I wore my harem pants (well actually they're Hanna's, but whatever) today and like 10 people said they were awesome. Also my jeans, my scarf, my hat.. All very popular amongst the dts people. And they're all weirded out by my british accent. Some people just can't get over it. One of the staff members named me FB, as in the Finnish Britt. I don't have anything against it, though he keeps mocking me by talking to me in a ridiculous posh british accent. But it's all good fun.
On the way back from the mountains we had a proper rave in the bus. Everybody was singing and dancing to the music and there were times I was actually scared that the bus is gonna roll over... By the time we got back to Brisbane it was raining. I've never seen a thunderstorm like this. I'll post a video on facebook once I'm able to, I really don't know how to describe it. The lightning literally lights up the whole sky and the rain's pouring down so hard that it's impossible to move from a building to another without getting soaked. We haven't been able to unpack the van yet cos it's still raining...
Tomorrow we're starting the actual lectures. Should be awesome, I can't wait.
