studies show that Devo is never coming home...Camp is where I belong, it's where I've always belonged, and I never want to do anything else. There is no way to fully appreciate the feelings that I recieve while working at otteredale until you've tried yourself. I am one of 63 extremely talented people. We are a search and rescue team, able to call in all of the resources we have at any given moment. We are coaches for soccer, canoeing, sailing, tennis, kayaking, climbing, swimming and an uncomprehendable amount of other activities. We are a drama troupe, willing to jump right into improvisation and exaturation at any time neccesary. We are artists, making a beautfiul thing even more beautiful. And we are the mentors of five hundred children every summer. We take each and every one of them to heart, and we push them to their bests. We know their full potential, and we are the only ones who can make them see it. And when it comes to closing day, and the session of campers is shipped off to make room for the next batch, we are the proudest people on the earth. To see these children, and to see how you can shape them, and to see how you can really make them be themselves, no matter how young, old, shy, awkward, disabled, or unfortunate they may be.
To be a camp counsellor, I gave up nine weeks of my summer. I gave up drinking, partying, sleeping in, hanging out with my freinds, shopping, and being able to relax fully. I gave up my girlfreind. I gave up my entire city life. And I wouldn't have it any other way.
That might seem self righteous, but I am having the most amazing time of my life. I never thought I'd have more fun then I did last year at camp, but this year is even better. I miss you all, but I am where I fit best right now. I'll see you all on the flip side...dont be afraid to write. Lilly, happy birthday soon, I probably won't get another chance to tell you....I love you dude.
Ciao
