can i possibly even come close to explaining:
a) how much energy i now have due to the amazing time at freshman camp
b) how much i still want to be a camp councelor
c) how amazing the moose song still is
d) how i could never ever get tired of camp life
....the answer: no. not even close.
mannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn i wish we could do that! mmmmmm it's sixth grade camp all over again!!!
as i was driving home, i started really realizing that i need to SLOOOOW DOWNNNN. i don't mean take more time at the stuff i do, i mean i need to quit trying to grow up so damn fast. i'm almost eighteen. so what. that's still not much, and realizing how much i love being absolutely, go-all-out crazy wild nuts i just think that lately i've been rushing myself into growing up and moving forward too fast. i need more time to sing at the top of my lungs with my friends, i need more time to dance with them, i need more time to laugh really hard, i need more time run through a field in the dark and laugh together, i need more time to be outside, i need more time to PLAY....
i am going to college soon, it almost doesn't seem real, and ya i'm excited, but at the same time, i wish i could get a bit more of this grade-bonding, friend-loving, buddy-buddy time in. i love it. it's amazing what a few songs and games can do. ever since fifth grade when i went to spring hill i deep down wanted to be a councelor but thought, how could i ever get by with that little of pay, well i'll tell you how, i'd get by with being at my peak of happiness! i'd get by with laughing and having the most fun possible day in and day out. i would love to be able to totally go crazy with kids and just be completely nuts and sing and have campfires and run and hike and swim and play and dance all day everyday.
well, i know i sure won't be getting to sleep anytime soon, i'm just too damn excited and awake with energy to settle down now.
