OV @ Grove City

Since most of my blog posts are all about OneVoice, it only seemed fitting to write one about our trip today (and also about life in general). Today, the OneVoice ensemble and the band (#OVEAB, of course) drove to Grove City. Not Grove City, Pennsylvania. Grove City High School. And not the one from Princess Diaries. Grove City Christian School in Grove City, Ohio. After driving 50 minutes in a completely full 12 passenger van, successfully avoiding the flooded portions of the country roads, and driving around the building for another 10 minutes trying to find the right entrance, we made it. Being there reminded me of my high school days, with the facilities kicked up about six notches. Grove City is an average sized Christian school attached to a fancy-schmancy church that looks more like a museum than a church in certain places. Talking to the students brought back tons of my own private Christian school memories... wearing uniforms, hanging out in the hallways, and being really excited to get to college but sad about leaving high school friends behind. I really like high schoolers, which is probably good, since I'm working on a high school teaching degree. Lately, I've been thinking a lot about where God will take me after I finish at Cedarville... because right now, I have absolutely no idea. But I know that I miss hanging out with teenagers. They're pretty cool sometimes :)
