so i just moved into my new cabin and there is a lifeguard still living there, and there are cobwebs and all of this shit there as well. men don't clean. ewww.
anyway-
i guess you could say yesterday was pretty exciting. we went to mudcave in the morning. we took the pontoons across the lake, and it was a mile hike to the cave. this one was cooler than the other one, and it wasn't so small and claustrophobic like. but yes, it is called mud cave-for good reason. so we start in the cave and you are told not to wear clothes that you would want to wear again, and you get prepared to get your feet wet. well, it starts out with wet feet, then ankles, and mind you this is in 60 degree or less water, and then you work your way up to having almostyour croch wet, but that is because i am tall. poor little rae, my new roommate from new zealand, is barely five foot tall if you are lucky and she is was to her waste. also, we went with the lifeguard trainer lunny, who is from australia so he is just so used to getting dirty all of the time and dealing with crazy animals. he is fun, but he came up to me when we were heading back out of the cave, which was taking forever, and he goes, 'steph, you don't look like you have gotten very muddy... and this is mud cave....' so he takes this huge slab of mud, and slaps it all over the back of my neck into my hair. then he just smothered it all over my legs, arms and face. then we all started throwing mud at each other which was fun, but then i got some in my ear and eye, that wasn't fun. then before getting onto the pontoons we had to rinse ourselves off in the lake. it was a good time. i think i took like two showers in 5 hours yesterday. then it sucked because the whole afternoon we had cpr, aed(defibrillator), and first aid training. we had to take a test and get certified for that. we took a dinner break but we started at 1 and didn't finish til 930. that sucks but oh well.
last night was the last night for being with my other cool roommates which was sad.
tuesday night, me and my friend tami decided to go to wal mart and get baking shit so we could make cookies and stuff at bill the conference pimp's house. i really am not sure why we call him that, we just gave him the name because he is a nerd who works in conference. anyway, we made cookies and this brownie contraption thing. well, lets just say i had 20 cookies that i took back to my cabin. by the next hour before we all went to sleep, three english girls and one german, who are all skinny, ate 16 cookies! there were only 4 left! they kept saying that i made the best cookies. it was funny.
oh, and my brownie contraption thing:brownie, then two cans of frosting, then another layer of brownies. everyone said it was good, but it was too sweet and it was killing most of the english because they aren't used to it. except for mark- this lifeguard who is skinny as shit just kept eating and eating it because he said it was so good. i had a stomach ache afterwards, and he didn't. holy crap.
well, we have a lost swimmer drill today then a party! then memorial day weekend so we are on our own and actually working in this madness....hmm....
hope that i break a leg!
love,
steph
