Ahh…High School camp.

In about an hour there will be almost 300 people in camp. Most of them will be in high school. I am excited. High school camp is by far my favorite of all the camps. The kids I have had in the past were fun to be around, curious about what I had to say, and in general thought I was cool. I know that it’s not the same with everyone else, BUT I’m pumped.

Staff break ended about 3 hours ago when we cleaned up camp. Here are some thoughts on the matter.

I like staff break and it’s always nice to have time to do whatever I want for however long I want, but at the same time a three hour dance party that ends the night is hardly restful. It was great in some ways, but in other ways it felt just like high school. All the awkwardness, drama, and general discontent I remembered from high school dances were recreated in a night where I was hating high school (and mostly wanting to leave the dance floor) the whole time.

Highlights of staff break:

1) My friend Wade and I double blobbed a bunch of people. The blob is a giant inflatable pillow that people jump on in order to launch their friends. Together Wade and I weigh about 500 pounds. We blobbed a girl who weighs roughly one hundred pounds. She did a flip, went about 25 feet in the air, and survived. Awesome.

2) I like good food. I ate lots of it.

3) The sun was shining like it was it’s job. I am still brown, but it was nice to be warm.

4) I took the whaler out for a spin…money. Straight money.

Well, it’s time to go wrangle up a clip board. Bye for now.
