say it! just kidding, you don't have to :) ... this time >:-( that's an angry face. Okay, last sunday (yesterday) our church youth group had a meeting and we developed certain administrative groups such as: activity planning, fundraising, bulletin-board care taker, etc. I became part of the activity planning crew with Jorge and Priscilla so you know we're gonna have some awesome activities! First of all, we decided to plan out a christmas banquet and gift exchange. Whether that will be a secret-santa or white elephant ordeal is yet to be determined (I wanna keep you guys in suspense), but aside from that, we are developing other ideas as well. We are going to be planning a snow trip toward the end of the year and I have been getting in contact with other churches to see where there will be other youth services because we wanna get involved in that. We also want to go to some concerts and even if we don't go to all of them, we at least would like to know about them and have them up on our bulletin board. We've been laggin on this kinda stuff for a while now as a group but we're gonna be picking up slack once again. Aside from that, we are building a sweet youth center downstairs at church. It's gonna be sick! We're gonna have like a little cafe thing going on down there, a little lounge with a couch (like the ones from drama, sara and suzy ;) and there's gonna be this wall there that WE (the youth) are gonna paint however we want and make it all colorful and tag it with our names and what not, basically pimp it out. We have a t.v. in there too that we could hook up video games to (not that us guys would, just saying that we could huh isai?) Enough of that for now though. Also on Sunday, a few of us got together and watched a movie in the Stockton Downtown Theatre. The guys watched 2012 and the girls watched... what else. twilight. I'm not even gonna comment on that. As far as 2012, i don't wanna turn this into a movie review but i will say this. If you've seen "Day After Tomorrow" then you've seen 2012. It is entertaining though, I'm not knocking it. All i'm saying is, if you have 10 extra bucks, "The Men Who Stare At Goats"might be a more enjoyable movie. At least it was for me :)
My Movie Update (for whoever cares): Still taking care of casting. Making phone calls and what not. This is getting to be really stressful but I know it will be worth it. OH! That brings up a whole 'nother topic for me to blog about but maybe later this week.
FEEL FREE TO COMMENT EVERYONE! Any suggestions for the activities crew? What about movies? Seen any lately? ... at least wish me luck with mine.
peace.

My friend i love the idea of converting the basement into a youth cafe center. When I was there we initiated the process. Most of the time i used it as a prayer room. I used to take one or two young people with me and spend the weekend in that basement praying and seeking the face of God. It will be exciting to have your own multimedia cafe center.
