Week 2

We're neck deep in week two of summer camp. The first week flew by incredibly fast. With only fifty campers on East Side (my summer home) it was fairly quiet, but everyone managed to have a good time, I think. I was too busy to not have a wonderful time. Programming consists mostly, I've found, of running from one place to another (camera in hand) and solving problems that pop up. Kind of like Whack-a-mole. A problem? Whack! Another one? Whack! It's certainly an adventure. My sister camped last week and sent a postcard home saying it was really fun to see me "hopping" around.

The summer staff appears to be thriving. I haven't seen anyone fleeing the property in floods of tears. Most seem relaxed and enthusiastic about another week. It's certainly fun meeting a new set of campers and getting to know them. One of my former campers is here on East Side this week! It is great to see her. Maybe we'll have another air hockey battle.

Thanks to my wonderful roommate, I now go around humming songs about pink, fluffy unicorns.

And that is my life, currently

Workshop update

We're into the second week of workshop and time is flying. But at the same time it feels like workshop has been going on forever.

Getting to know the new summer staff has been great. I'm trying to keep a balance between reconnecting with old friends and welcoming new ones. This includes tearing myself away from Lydia, much to her dismay. She doesn't always believe me when I tell her that things are good for her.

Sadly, we were less than successful at convincing people that we were twins - mostly due to the unhelpful people around us who kept betraying our trust by actually telling the truth.
