And that someone is my co-counselor. Honestly, he is one of the biggest reasons why I'm sick of being here. Knowing that he won't be asked back next year is only a small compesation for the fact that he pretty much makes the time I spend in the bunk when he's there is the worst ever. So let me continue my rant for those that probably don't care ( Read more... )

Summer is passing both way too quickly and not fast enough. I'm kind of ready for home, but I know I'll miss here terribly. Talking about what to bring to school makes me excited yet knowing I only get 5 days in which to pack up makes me stressed. However, my employer did hint at the possibility of me returning next year, yay to that. Tomorrow ( Read more... )

Little kids wear me out. Adults that act like little kids wear me out more. Imagine an overnight with 48 children in which it rained the entire time ("He's touching me" "Tell him not to talk to me," "He poked me with his smore stick"). My co-counselor basically told one of my kids that he was going to die (the kid ate a cookie before my co had ( Read more... )

I can't believe I've almost been here a month. It's kind of surreal. If I take into account how close I am to my coworkers/friends, and how much I love the kids in my bunk, you'd think I'd been here for the entire summer. If I think about my classes and actual work, it feels like 2 days. I have a sailor's tan. Which means it stops about an ( Read more... )

I wish I had brought my camera.

One of my good friends John should have worked at a girls camp. They would have seen a vast rise in the girl's intrest in swimming. Plus, he's British, so he talks with an accent.

I'm sure he'd giggle if he read this, but he isn't, though he is sitting right beside me.

Maine is pretty awesome. I enjoy the waterfront people a lot, well, with the exception of one guy, who calls himself Tweeter. Tweeter is 27 and has been workign here for 7 years. He's nice, but he talks ALL the time, about himself and the random stories about the camp that he knows ("About five years ago some guy drove a sail boat into those ( Read more... )

You know what is really sad? When a doctors office can't take you because their computers are down and they can't access their schedule. It leaves little hope for the world that there is ANY profession that is not reliant on computers ( Read more... )

What is it with middle school teachers thinking I'm a student there? I don't get what part of me screams 13 so much, but its kind of disconcerting ( Read more... )

I went to the gym today, and when I was there I thought to myself that maybe erging didn't suck as much as I remembered, so I decided to try it again. I was wrong. Whoever enjoys erging is not in their right mind. Otherwise, the gym was good, I felt mildly productive.

I want to see the da Vinci Code tonight, but have no one to go with.
