Dear friends and family,
I just wanted to say "Thank you" for praying for me while I was at camp. I had a great time and met a lot of people there who I hope I will remain in touch with. I snowboarded every day for four days. We had a great worship time every morning and evening, with small groups at night. We talked about identity, what we find it in, and what is a realistic view of identity. We played lots of games, went sledding, had a ski/snowboarding race, not to mention my favorite part, just hanging out with people my age. I had a friend here say that my Romanian had gotten better since last week befor camp. I talked in Romanian almost non stop, which was pretty hard. Some of the people I met live in Brasov, so I plan to see them often. It's been pretty hard not having any friends here (my only good friend that I met 2 years ago moved to Germany), so I was really excited to meet some people my age there.
As some of you know, I turned 15 at camp. I was slightly nervous about celebrating my birthday away from home, but it turned out to be really fun. The leaders woke me and my roommate up by singing "Happy Birthday" in English, Romanian, and German. I got a Snickers bar and other candy, plus everyone kept wishing me a happy birthday throughout the day. I won't forget my 15th birthday for a long time.

Glad to hear you had a great time! I tried snowboarding for the first time a few weeks ago (without a lesson) and I fell down so many times I was already sore and hurt my elbow after 15min. :) So I switched to skis, which I'm more comfortable with, and had a great time. Maybe someday I'll learn to snowboard!
