I'm Back!

Helllloooooooo!!!! How have you been? I'm doing good, but I'm exhausted.  I had another good cabin this week, the only issue was they took a long time to fall asleep.  Flounder, the head counselor, asked me where I wanted to be next week and so I chose G9 (I've been in G8 the past two weeks).  She kind of laughed at me because she knows I prefer older kids over younger kinds. I mean, don't get me wrong: the younger kids are awesome. They are so cute and love you so easily and say some pretty funny things.  But they also need you to tell them to change their underwear every morning and things like that.  So I prefer older kids. How  much do you want to bet that next week I'll be in a junior cabin? I got a "burn" on Monday.  I wore a tank-top and forgot to put on sunscreen. So I have two lines over my shoulder. (BTW, I also have a major sock tan because I have to wear running shoes for ropes).  It was red for the rest of the day but by Tuesday it was a tan. It never hurt or peeled or anything. So this is why I say I don't get burned. In reality, I probably do get burned, I just don't get the symptoms that everybody else gets.  Doing the high ropes is going well so far.  They have welcomed me in with open arms. Apparently last summer they were a sort of a clique.  The warm welcome may be in part to the reason that high ropes could really use 6 or more people and some people that had been there last year left so there were only three of them.  But I think that they genuinely am glad I'm there, which makes me happy. The only bad part about it is the sun/heat.  The sun because you have to watch your climber but if the sun is behind them, it is really difficult.  And the heat obviously just wipes you out and make you sweaty and other various things.  Another thing is that the rocketry craft is in the same field as the ropes course.  So on Friday when they are trying to launch rockets there can't be people in the air. So we have to alternate and it's really annoying. I don't understand why they can't launch them somewhere else. And ropes kind of took over the rocketry shed. So it's really crowded in there and rocketry really just needs to move.  I would say ropes could move because rocketry was there first, but ya know, it's only four 50ft poles 8ft in the ground. And don't forget the 10ft anchors for belaying. I have a feeling that you don't understand what I'm talking about. Oh well.
