so, i have ended my life of camp. no more working from 8am to 9pm, sleeping in a tent, and eating the same food week after week. i do miss some staff members and i do miss the great outdoors... but i dont miss all the rules, the uniforming, the paperwork, and the godly image i was suppose to uptake. screw trying to be this perfect scout and director and shit. screw it all to hell.
So, i begin a new life.
i cant believe that in 24 hours, i went to a party, unpacked everything from tomahawk, did laundry, went to the bank and menards, and packed everything for college. and packing for college was an amazing feat. i packed everything im gonna need for 9 months into a 2-door honda civic. and i found room for fishing things too. and i can see out part of the rear window. thank god for tetris. i am a god at packing everything into my car. so anyways, tomorrow i leave for north dakota where i will spend sunday night. monday i finish the drive to montana and start the move in process. then i got orientation. orientation consists of basically camping, bowling, going to the state fair and attending other little activities like a luau. i think it'll be a lot better then a redneck cajun luau. so, college...
i cant wait until i finally get a home. i mean, sure my house seemed like a home, but i didnt belong. camp i belonged but i just hated most of the staff and had all of half a tent to call my own. i want a room, and just place i can call my own... where i feel like i belong and that i have a future there.
so enough mushy stuff. im almost in college. i gotta start thinking about girls, and parties, and homework, and girls.
life is gonna get good.
