So, I'm home from camp right now... actually got a couple days off. I'm probably going to leave to go back in about an hour though. So far, I've actually been having a good time overall. When I first got there, things were a little shaky... I failed my lifeguard test and people were really cliquey, but then some new people showed up who I get along w/really well. I actually feel like I've got some friends there now, like friends that I'll probably keep even after camp is over. It's been so tiring and I really feel like the experience should be making me miserable... we've been doing lots of crappy stuff like raking and weeding and cleaning and waking up early... and sitting through boring training and stuff... but somehow, it's been fun. It really taps into my little kid side. I get to play ping pong and kickball and go swimming and canoeing and be outside and all that stuff. Even though I'm completely exhausted a lot of the time, I much prefer being busy and tired to sitting around the house and being lazy all summer. The kids haven't shown up yet, but we had an open house the other day. That made me feel a lot better about everything. I was really worried about dealing w/kids... but after seeing them the other day, I realized they're very easy to talk to and will love you for no reason a lot of the time. Kids were grabbing my hand and jumping on my back within a minute of meeting me. Hopefully it'll be that easy once I'm actually in charge of them. The kids are showing up on Friday... and I probably wont be home again till early July. I was going to write a better entry here, but I'm really distracted... so I'll end here. Feel free to send me mail! I don't really get many chances to get online.
