Mohawk: A Hairstyle, and the BEST CAMP EVER!

Hello everyone!

I feel like I always apologize for it being so long in between posts- but I won't apologize this time.

I'm busy- and if this is the thing that keeps your life happy, you need to find another hobby.

Anyway! I've sort of posted a little bit about my new life developments on Facebook, but I decided to come over here and post in a little more detail about what I'm doing this summer.

So, I just got hired to be the Leadership Director of a camp in Connecticut called Camp Mohawk! Seeing as I have been going to camp both as a girl and as a leader for..... 8 years now, I think that it's time to make my hobby into a job where I get paid (though I would gladly do it even if I didn't get paid.... but don't tell my boss that!)

So from what I understand, the Leadership Director is the one that's over what they call CITs (counselors in training- the 15/16 year old girls). Basically, I teach the girls what it takes to be a good counselor including things like public speaking, self worth, creating lessons, (among other things) It's sort of like being a head teacher- but instead of going across the world, I'm going to Connecticut!!!

The camp is about an hour away from Hartford, and a couple hours away from NYC and Boston- so I'm going to do lots of travelling as long as I'm there! I leave on June 11th (more or less) and I come back on August 21st (more or less). So I'll be gone for 2 months in total. Are we all on the same page? Good.

This camp is AMAZING from what I've found. Everyone there seems so nice and welcoming! I'm so excited to work with such great people. Also, they have THEME NIGHTS like PJ party, toga dinner, Halloween night, super hero and villian dinner. Can I really ask for any more?

I am so blessed! I never expected such an amazing opportunity to happen to me! I know that it will be a tough, but rewarding summer. Did I mention I was excited? Because I am. 98 days until I'll be at camp!
