Hey Everyone, long time no update. Nothing really too exciting ever happens for me to write about, and to be honest even when it does, I never think "Oh man...better post that in my livejournal ASAP!!" Another 4th of July weekend is upon us and I have been up here at camp since June 30th. I was all alone sitting on the beach last night and I started to think about past 4th of July weekends at good old Rainbow Shores. There really are two that stand out. The first was about 6 years ago when I met Samantha for the first time. I'd been camping there for about 17 years at that point and here strolls in this pretty cute looking chick from Nedrow, and she was thinking she could survive the Lake Ontario rains in a little dome tent...."People in tents are screwed!", but she didn't listen, I was hanging out with her a little bit tonight and I remembered to ask her about Tiffany as well, and I guess she still works at Pizza Hut in Nedrow, have to roll on down there one of these days and say hi. The second was about 4 years ago, The first time I brought a serious girlfriend to camp, (not to many ladies head up there with me, its kinda like my family thing.) we had a blast playing pool in the game room, spending hours and hours not to mention about $40 trying to beat Alien -vs- Predator, which we did eventually do, as well as return for a repeat on Labor Day weekend. All of that aside, sitting on the beach last night brought back a more private memory of that night 4 years ago. There was a big bonfire on the beach as there always is this time of the year, and I remembered us sitting there till well after everyone else had headed to their campers and much smaller fires, we were sitting on a big log, she was leaning back into me and I was just kind of holding her there well the waves crashed in the shore, the stars kinda shined extra bright, and we didn't need to talk, because being there together with the waves and the stars and the sand just said everything that needed to be said. I hope that someday I can share that experience with someone else and even though it will be just as special, you always remember your first. I thought I had someone picked out to share things like that with, however I was wrong and all though I really wish we had tried, I think I am glad we didn't.
You need to be more focused on what you want and not what your so called "friends" think, and just be happy. I think thats my advice for this entry.
