Valley of Respose (pt. 1)

I have been looking forward to this for months. Today we finally have our Winter Retreat (keeping it “winter”, cuz “spring” sounds girly). A lot of the people going mostly go for the friends, but the main reason I’m going is to hopefully get some much needed rest. I really want to relax and not care for what troubles may still reside back home. I want to take a break from the school work, the stupid gossip (entertaining, but stupid), and just not worry about anything. As I leave, I hope that it doesn’t go in ruins. Everything I look forward to usually blows up in my face. So I only pray that this trip doesn’t result in something that will only cause me frustration.
