The Sentinel on DVD, and other news
Jul. 28th, 2007 08:59 amHey, just found this link - some people are trying to get together a small campaign to get the rest of The Sentinel released on DVD, and need people to fill in a little form on the company's website to ask them to make the DVDs. It takes about two minutes, so if you're a fan, please go here and follow the instructions.
So, Lighthouse is over for another year. I've been helping since I was thirteen, so that's seven years now. And I still don't believe in God. Guess they need to work harder, huh? We had EIGHTEEN children this year, which was manic but actually manageable, surprisingly. The biggest problem was that we had quite a few troublesome kids, so as soon as you got one quietened down, another one started acting up. Which is why this was my most stressful Lighthouse ever, even though I also had the most competent helpers I have ever had.
What's weird is how, when they said up on main stage 'only people who believe in Jesus can go to Heaven', it really bothered me, despite the fact that I don't believe in it. I guess I don't like the idea that I could be left out, or have whatever happens to non-believers happen to me if they're right. And Mum was a Christian, so presumably she's gone to Heaven by their philosophy, which means I'd never see her again. Nasty. Of course, everyone says something different about who gets to go to Heaven or not, so I'll try not to take it to heart!
I managed almost 500 words of writing last night, so here's to hoping that forcing myself into it will work the business. I just need to get back into the swing of it, I think. Sticky scene or something.
