Well I guess I could update my blog or something...
So my first year of college ended nicely enough and I spent the last 3 months working at Bird River Bible Camp. This was my 5th summer there and I must say I sure do love that place. This year I took on a position with more responsibility and I think that was a good thing. I learned and grew as a person (I think). While there were some trials and not so great moments, the valleys were contrasted by the magnificent mountain top. My God is an awesome God. The times I personally experienced him and saw what he was doing in the lives of others was fantastic! There were so many moving and inspiring testimonies to be shared this summer. It's also wonderful to spend so much time outside enjoying nature... It did seem like I was at camp for a long time but the weeks just zoomed by. Sometimes I wished it would last forever but by the end I was ready to be done. So after two days chilling at home it was time for school again. First week has been good. Excited to do lots of video stuff this year, it's gonna be sweet.
Maybe I'll blog regularly...

Rise and Rise Again
Failure is hard to admit.
When you make mistakes you swore you wouldn't repeat.
When lessons learned are forgotten.
And everything you've built is destroyed.
Your attempts are again in ruins.
"Though a righteous man falls seven times, he rises again.
But the wicked are brought down by calamity".
It is worth fighting for.
So fight.
And
when
you
fall...

Hey people of the interwebs! I got a bunch of new videos up on my youtube channel that you should check out here: http://www.youtube.com/user/BoondoggleMovies
And besides making random videos I've been not really busy with school work. I'm shooting a commercial tomorrow. And I got a video montage assignment due on the 21st, may post that on youtube.
Um... This summer I'm gonna be at camp from June to August! So I'm pretty excited for that. Just a few short months till I'm done my first year of college (crazy!!)
My birthday is coming up... I guess that's cool. 21... don't see me wanting to get any older then that.
Gives me an excuse (even though I don't need one) to have a party. A bunch of people can't make it but that's life, you listen to some Dashboard Confessional, cry a little and everything is all peachy.
An interesting blog I found yesterday: http://www.jonacuff.com/stuffchristianslike/ What I've read so far has been entertaining (more than this blog for sure)... I'm currently typing this blog post for NO other reason then to type a blog post (if that's not obvious) I'd like to actually write something here that is thought provoking or something like that.
If anyone was reading this they probably lost interest by now so I guess I'll let out my deepest, darkest, most secretest secret ever.... I like turtles. Okay not really. Lame. I'll stop.

Ten Talents
As you'd know if you've seen previous posts I love the band Emery. Their EP While Broken Hearts Prevail is some of my favorite work of theirs. I listened to it a few times today and all the songs are fantastic but I found myself relating to the song Ten Talents. So here are the lyrics and a video with the song that's longer then the song....
Emery - Ten Talents
Last night I had a dream that you decided to leave me
and no matter what I said, my persuasion fell upon your deaf ears.
Don't leave me here alone. I'm not so good on my own.
I'm not so good. I'm not so good on my own.
Is it too late? Am I too gone? Is there something I should know?
Am I working for nothing? Will there ever be anything to show?
Is it true? I don't know what the storybooks have told.
Though I wouldn't be so bold to say so.
Will I do what I'm told? Will I play my hand or fold?
Will I stand my ground and hold? I would like to think so.
But if I just walked away, would you still save me?
Or would you take back all that you gave me?
Is it too late? Am I too gone? Is there something I should know?
Are we working for nothing? Is there anything to show for the service?
Is it worthless? All the waiting is the hardest part.
Come home my dear because I love you. I love you still.
It's a slap in the face when I feel my complacency grow.
It's the thrill of the chase, when you catch it you just let it go.
I take for granted the grace that is given me daily I know, oh.
How can you say that you love me when all that I want.
All that I want is your blessing and then I am gone.
Nothing I do can make up for the things I have done, oh.
Your love is all we need. We're gonna make it.
So let's close our eyes tonight and just believe.

Yo What Up?
Hey everybody and nobody... Just thought I'd say what's up. I just put some fish in the oven. 20 minutes ago I pre-ordered Emery's new album. I collected some coke bottle caps and scored some songs from itunes. You can actually download bonus tracks so I got 3 Anberlin and 2 Emery itunes bonus tracks. Cool beans.
School doesn't seem to keep me that busy... I don't spend much time doing homework at home... do it at school so I guess it's school work...
I've been posting weekly on youtube which is crazy... Don't know how good the videos are but what ever. It's youtube. Joined vimeo (http://vimeo.com/davidmacdougall) maybe soon I'll put something up there...
So I noticed a while ago that I have a follower. I can't view any profile info...
