I Wish I Could Save You

I don't even know where to begin. Forgive the stram-of-consciousness nature of this post, but that is the only way I will be able to get these random thoughts/highlights/ramblings all in one sitting.

Our screenings have been going incredibly well....at OU, Heather danced/chased people/swung in a Chewbacca costume...at Moore High School, all of the teachers thought Heather was a student...we got quoted/featured in a newspaper from our OSU screening...we thought we left our projector cord at Mustang High, so we spent 40 minutes and a year of our lives worth of stress trying to find it...we didn't find it but we bought one for $8 at Radio Shack...not only did UCO put on a killer screening, but they also had free root beer floats...we made some amazing new friends at Mid-America Christian University...one of the girls knew Kayla Garver...such a weird, small world...we went to a 24-hour Trucker restaurant...I punched Tessa's chicken sandwich...we blindfolded and surprised Heather by taking her to Taco Bell...it's her least favorite restaurant...we had to drive 3 hours round trip today, just to get to a bank...we got pulled over last night for going the speed limit...the officer recommended we go a bit slower than the actual speed limit because they have had 8 traffic accidents in the past three days involving cows...we saw the bloodstains of said accidents...at first we thought we were $500 over in our merchandise sales, but we were actually $80 under...they do not make people like Crystal Mayhue anymore...I was told that I was creepy enough that I should try to grow a mustache...we had a near-fatal experience in the van trying to pass a slow truck on a 2-lane highway...I stayed calm, cool, and collected...seriously.

On an important note, Kelly Clarkson's album leaked online and I cannot stop listening. She has really outdone herself. "Cry" slapped me in the face and made me do the laugh-cry.

On a serious note, please pray for my friend, Kaleb. I love him very much and want him to be safe.

I have started to really feel the weight of what I'm doing in the past few days and it is difficult to describe. I have also started to really miss my friends and family. I am having the time of my life and I don't wanna be anywhere else, so maybe you could all come visit me!

I love you all.

Keep Your Eyes Open,
Brandon

Brandon,

Thanks for keeping us updated back home. I agree that you should grow a mustache; a big, thick, girthy, Jeff Fisher-esque mustache. That's really random and cool that someone knew Kayla. Where is exactly is that school? Know that you are missed back home.

Most affectionately yours,
Cory
