Choga makes me angry on the inside. What is choga you may be asking. Choga is the combination of challenge and yoga. Challenge is what I teach at camp. It's team building games and all those silly things like making a tower out of pasta and gum drops. So it's had and there's a lot of behavior issues that come up but the kids generally love it. What they hate is yoga. Yoga has been combined with challenge cutting program time for challenge so we can do the stupid cow pose and play 'meditation ball'. To top things off the yoga teacher sucks ass at working with kids. When you have kids with social, emotional, behavioral and learnind troubles you can't really demand for them to be still and quiet because it'll never happen. Also saying 'like' a million times while explaining a game doesn't help. If I can't figure it out for all the 'likes' then the kids can't understand.
So basically I'm pissed about choga. And that I don't have a day off till day 9. And that I didn't have any nights off at all till I pointed it out. All in all a really hot sucky few days. This doesn't even detail the issues of staff being childish and annoying.
Rawr. I want to sit in an air conditioned room and watch Doctor Who.
