   Bob Ditter says "NO!"
Well...the people I work with will get that (the subject), at least. Not like anyone from work actually reads this anyway. Anywho, the past week was week five: Operation Purple. It was a week of 100 military kids. The week was...well, stressful. At first, we thought that the kids were going to be rather respectful and listen to whta we had to say, but we soon found out that we had a handful of bastards on our hands that made the week shit. I had 8 girls in my cabin, and one cried every night. One night I got sick of it and yelled at her, told her to grow up, and not to come back to camp if she can't handle it. Yes, I was a mean counselor this week. On Wednesday, the entire camp took a trip to Water Safari...a water amusement park. I had 8 kids in my group with another counselor, and it wasn't really that bad. I actually had a decent time. I spent a lot of time with one boy...he asked me to be his buddy for the rides, so I agreed. He was so polite and simply adorable. That made my time even better. On Thursday, I went with half of the campers as a Chaperone to the military base around here. It was rather boring for me because I have no relatives in the military, but it was good for the kids. After we came back, we had missed all of our classes, and there were speakers that arrived at camp to give the campers some presentations, so our job was just to sit back and make sure the campers stayed awake for the speakers. We also had a dance on Thursday night, which ended up not so good for me. To make a long and depressing story short, something was said, and I over reacted, and was crying for the rest of the night. We had campfire after the dance, and the only one who could make me smile at that point was the boy that I spent all day with at Water Safari, so I was greatful for that. I ended up going to the nurse's station at 10:00 that night to use her phone so I could call my mum to calm me down. It helped a little. I got back to my cabin around 11 or so, and put on a CD. That CD just happened to be the new Blink 182 CD, and that just made me cry again. I slept like crap that night -- I was up every hour until I had to get up for a shower. It was not a plesant night. Things got straightened out on Friday, however, so I was feeling better by the time we left. Friday night I went to Ted's house for a small get-together, and we all drank schmirnoff and watched Team America. It was a good time. Tonight I am staying home for the first time in a few weeks, and then it is back to camp for the final week. After that, back to college, and then my birthday. Whoot. Artemis, Goddess of the Hunt, is off to burn some CDs...aluve'



Your theme song is Graduation by Vitamin C. You
seem to like school and learning. Summer
vacations or other long breaks from school
don't seem to do much for you except make you
want school to start again. Maybe having a life
outside the classroom would be a good goal.
