when life seems to go wrong, just move along...
so this summer was amazing. i made some new friends, one of which, after barely spending any time with her, i already consider my best friend. 4H was, as always, the love of my life. My co-counselor was caty v, which wasn't my first choice (karen and i asked to be co-counselors) but it was totally cool. karen was there which was amazing because she lives in vermont. and gianna and jen hunt, who i love to death. ashley, who i went to camp with when i was probably 12, emma and colleen, love them more than life. and a bunch of my mini-campers from last summer were there, which is great because i kinda feel like maybe i had something to do with them liking camp enough to come back. i love staff dearly as well. tribe with sarah h, ben and cara was great because those were 3 i didn't know really well and i was really glad to get to know them. finally talked to liz r this summer instead of just on myspace cuz sometimes i'm just a stalker like that. went to a counselor swim with amanda and gianna, and it was just a freakin' hilarious gossip session with emily love, who i love dearly and am sincerely sad i didn't get to know my freshman year. took 9:00 shootin' stuff with bucky. small world (not really) she graduated high school with my cousin. love love love bucky. and love that we listened to music all the time. and love kicking butt in the carnival. took 10:00 shirt making with robbi. the Long Island boys were in that class, making it rediculously hard to control, but i have half of a cute shirt done, and one of these days i'll finish it. love robbi. whenever there was slacking off to be done, usually i was with her. sadie hawkins?=me and huntifer and robbi in the store hanging out and gossiping. and finally 2:00 basket weaving with snazzy and jamie. it's a good thing snazzy already loves me, because i absolutely SUCK at basketweaving. like w0ah to the millionth power. but sometimes i pretend.
as always, 4H is my favorite place in the world and i look forward to it all year, esp. in the summer (duh). i had totally forgotten about but am now really excited for teen weekends, just so i can hang out with these friends, 'some that i hardly know' and it doesn't matter cuz 'we've had some times, i wouldn't trade for the world'. and it doesn't get any more true than that song. it sounds all cheesy and whatever, but at camp, you meet the most amazing people, and it's inexplicable if you've never been to camp. camp is part of who i am, and it's why i am who i am. this year was my first year in 6 years i think going without caitlin. i missed her dearly, but i'm glad we both decided to go, even if it was seperately. i loved random staring contests with jesse at mealtimes, sarah mik for feeding me and being the only vegan i know. and just everyone. it's amazing.
then for the rest of my summer i worked at a girl scout day camp in manchester. It's called camp merrie-wood. this year i was a junior counselor, aka paycheck baybee. haha. it was my first one, and i'm not gonna lie, it was pretty exciting to have moola. the first and last weeks were really fun, but the middle week kinda sucked at life because there were sucky people causing wayyyyy too much drama. and the sad part is, the person creating the most drama was a mother. and i just wanted to be like, i feel like i'm in high school. and she would badmouth my boss, who of course i would tell because i'm friends with my boss. and then my boss would get in trouble for being friends with me, etc. etc. basically that week sucked but its all over now and won't happen again. all in all it was really fun and i can't wait for next summer without those few people.
went to AZ and las vegas, nothing special.
and now it's school. freshman year i was all excited cuz "oooooooh high school" sophmore year i was mildly intrested. this year i just went in knowing how much it was gonna suck and it pretty much fufilled my expectations. and i know when i go through my day-by-days they're really boring, but i highly doubt anyone is reading this far anyways.
i was supposed to teach myself french 2 this summer, but between me being lazy, having work, and having other summer work, it didn't get completed. so i had to go find a french class to be in. thank god jordan m is in my class. i never would have survived without her. love having her there and french is basically gonna be a joke because we're just gonna talk the whole time. the teacher seems nice, mme harris-fogerty. but she's catching on quick that we're gonna talk and she keeps giving us looks. whatever.
then was english. the teacher seems a little strict. mrs. begley? i might switch out of that class, we'll have to see. but the people in that class are amazing. brad, alicia, mike, rochelle, and i know there's more too.
then i had study hall, which is annoying because i'm not supposed to have any study halls whatsoever. what happened was i didn't get civics or economics this semester, and i need to take one a semester because i don't have time next semester to take them both. that's currently being fixed, and in the meantime i'm kinda shifting back and forth between study hall and just hanging out with skoronski. who, yea i know it's dorky, i missed this summer. as soon as i walked in she gave me a hug, and it's weird that i don't have spanish with her and jenn anymore. i have kirby this year. which will be fine, i'll just miss the same spanish for 2 years ina row.
then math, with devagian, who i have only heard negative things about, and i'm trying to switch out of that class even though there's julia and rochelle.
and then AP bio, which oddly enough, i wasn't freaked out by. i just kinda let the fact that it's sooooo much work roll off my back. maybe it's cuz the summer work was kinda easy and i understood it. we'll see.
tomorrow i have spanish and latin. i haven't heard anything good about the latin teacher, but i'm really excited to start speaking spanish again.
alright, it's late and i'm exhausted. maybe i'll try to keep this thing updated this year. haha yea right. we shall see. time shall tell.
