It's been awhile since I last wrote here, and Lisa's been writing away, so I feel like it's time for an update. Camp ended on a good note, which is always nice. The counselors all got along so well this year, so there was very little drama. The end of the summer bash at Henry Park was fun as always, except because of my sprained foot, I couldn't ( Read more... )

Wow, this has been the most draining week I've had in a long time. In addition to an entire week of camp, we also had the camp sleepover for the 10, 11, and 12 year olds on Tuesday night. They get to swim and make smores and good stuff like that. We were going to watch Heavyweights, but one of the counselors forgot to bring it in, so instead we ( Read more... )

What exactly we're getting out of it I'm not all that sure. The English Ed majors have already taken this class last semester, so we get to sit in this tiny room ( Read more... )

I spend far too much time on the computer, but since I'm on it, I might as well leave something here, right? Just a warning, this entry is probably going to be one long rant ( Read more... )

I feel like now that I have this thing I have to update it every once in awhile. Not much has changed. School is still going...I'm kind of getting sick of being a student. Me and my friends were studying for a midterm the other night and we just feel like it's somewhat pointless. We're all English Education majors and we know how to read a book ( Read more... )
