Another one of those things called posts...

Welp..

I just had another one of those moments where I write an entire post about something and then realized at the end that it was pointless and no one cares about what I tweeted this morning.  Oops.

So yea.. My life.  It's definitely interesting I guess.  Nothing really to note right now though.  (I'm really just stalling until I think of something really cool to talk about.. or have to go to class.  Whichever comes first.)

OH!
I got one.

This past weekend we, meaning my roommates and I, hosted a Beer Tower party!  It was a blast.  Seriously.  And not to toot my own horn, but TOOT!  I won!  Well, sort of.  I technically tied with the neighbor boys and maybe I started a few hours before everyone else.. and maybe I stayed up later than everyone else as well... but hey, I made some sacrifices!  I even paused to make cookies with Pat (S/O to Pat for putting up with me.. I faintly remember dropping A LOT of things. Oops.)

We also managed to get our clock stolen by one of my brother's friends.  It's still missing.  And I'm salty about it.  GIVE IT BACK DYLAN.

........  So that definitely wasn't as exciting or as long as I thought it was going to be.  But at least I attempted to entertain you all (which basically includes Marisa, Bridget, and my mother.  Hi Mom.)

The End.

Happy reading.  Stay Excellent.  ME.

P.S.   I hope you all thoroughly enjoy the fact that I share every thought that runs through my mind as I post.  I find it quite humorous when I proof read.  :)

La la la.. :)

I just really love this song.  A lot. So I thought I would share it with all of you. :)

I Won't Give Up- Jason Mraz

Stay excellent, Me.

A little thing I like to call MAJOR Catching Up.

Oh goodness.  I need to write an outline or something for this post.  It's about to be rough. So bear with me, and hopefully no one gets lost or left behind. Cross your fingers.

Ok, so I guess I'll begin where I left off last; Camp.

I met the most amazing people at camp.  I never thought I would connect with people from all over the world in such a short period of time.  The first show, The Wizard of Oz, went very well.  It was a little rougher than expected, but the kids had a blast so I'm happy about it.  The first 4 weeks of camp went by so quickly that I was shocked to have to say goodbye to my campers!  They were like my little sisters who I adored and led day by day.  They even taped me to my bed after The Wizard of Oz, just to be silly!  The next session began and it was off to a rocky start.  The directors decided to move me to the 2 week camp so that I would have more time to work on our show, Snow White.  I had to start completely over with making friends and connecting with my co counselors and supervisors.  I adjusted as quickly as possible and made another great connection with this group of people; too well of a connection I'm afraid.  As some of you may noticed, I was home from camp a little early.  When our 2 week campers left, some of my new friends and I decided to celebrate.  Well, long story short, it was a big mistake that got us in a lot of trouble.  So five of us were sent home from camp 2 weeks early.  But I wouldn't change a thing.  It was my decision to behave that way; yes I regret making those decisions, but everything happens for a reason.  I had the best last night at camp ever.  That's something I'll never take back.  My first co counselors were Kate and Jesse.  I absolutely adore them!  We had the best time ever!  So many great memories and stories to remember forever.  Kate taught Jesse and I the ropes of camp and the three of us had the happiest, most easy-going cabin in camp!  Kate was even there for my first and only incident of being pulled over (nothing came of that, just a nosey cop who pulled us over because I was "swerving within my lane", bologna.)  My second set of co's were Shelby, Bec, and Jaclyn.  Loved them!  And then there's this odd one named Sarah that taught me tennis, and supported my awkwardness.  Love her as well.  Enjoy the following photos:

We mustache you a question, but we'll shave it for later.  Jesse!

Knit one, pearl two, Kate Tamer this is for you.  Where's there a jungle, you'll find a monkey.  Kate Tamer, chase that donkey! :)  Me, Kate, and Sarah. 

Our cute little cabin, all packed up and waiting for campers to leave after 1st session.

Yes, we loved the food there. :/  

Camp entrance!!! With Lauren, myself, Sally, and Hannah.

Love Kate. A lot.

Sarah and Jesse. :)

Pretending to be Snow White. 

After my campers taped me to my bed.. little turds.

Last but certainly not least, I would love to comment on these two weirdos that somehow became the highlight of my summer.  They kept me entertained while road guarding, kept me filled in on gossip, and kept me sane during the show!  Sarah and Amanda, you are literally the best things ever!  Don't ever change.  Be yourself and reach high!  Sarah, go after Umans.  I support that.  Amanda, keep your eyes on those Shawnees!  :)  (P.S. this photo captures their personalities so well)

Also, enjoy these wonderful looking men doing some weird dance that I can't remember.  It's something they use to intimidate their opponents, or something.. ?

Ok, so after camp, I basically came home to tell the embarrassing story to my family and friends (happy Marisa?) and to spend time with everyone!  Alumni tournament was the weekend after I got home and I enjoyed every minute of that!  Seriously, best time ever.  Especially our night at Eric's filled with grilling pizza, taking jeep rides, and some serious sleeping issues. Ha! 

Lauren, my partner in crime. 

Now I'm back at school, in my big girl apartment, with a big girl job, and big girl responsibilities... But we all know I'm still having fun! Here's an insight into my first two weeks at BG: basically, some friends from good ol' Versailles came the first weekend, and this past weekend I ran into my APhiO brothers out and about! Great time.  

Eric, Amanda (way back there), Aaron, Shelby, Me, Brett, Brian, and Eric (way back there).

Alan, Ashley, Amber, Me, Jenn, Sean, Kara, and Haley! 

And I think that's a pretty good description of the rest of my summer.  I loved it.  All of it.  And I hope you enjoyed hearing all about it.  That's all. 

 Happy reading, stay excellent.  Me.

Oy Sugar...

So I can sit here and type up a long list of reasons why I haven't posted lately, but I think in the end I would consider myself lying to you all.  Here's the truth: I'm exhausted by the responsibility of 14 eleven year olds.  Along with the responsibility of making the production of Snow White a success in approximately 2 and 1/2 weeks.  Yep.  So more later.

Happy Reading, stay excellent. Me.

Campers! :)

Hi again!

The campers have arrived! Yay!

So here's the situation, Monday was our first day with the campers.  Some arrived around 11am with their parents in cars, some arrived around 1pm on a bus from Chicago, and then our last two campers arrived at 1:30 or so on the Detroit bus.  It was soooo exciting!  All the girls are so sweet and adorable! I had to leave on Tuesday morning for a family thing back home, but when I returned Wednesday afternoon/evening, the girls had made me a cute card that said welcome back and they sang a song to me at dinner saying welcome back and they missed me.  It was so cute.  I made it back just in time for my last activity period on Wednesday so I got to teach an acting class for the first time.  It was great! I'm so excited for the summer to get rolling and for all the campers to really get excited for the play!  

Happy reading! Stay Excellent, Me. 

Lake of the Woods Summer Camp!

Hello all!!!

So, I have a few things to address in here.  

As some of you may know, my summer job is taking place at a summer camp in Decatur, Michigan.  So my posts are not going to be very often at all.  Sorry in advance.

I arrived at camp on Sunday and have been meeting tons of new people.  So many in fact, I can't even remember any of their names.  Oops. Anyway, I got my cabin placement and I'm with 11 year olds! Yay! Should be exciting. Anyway, my cabin is all pretty and cute for the girls, we're the snails! It's adorable.  

My free time is nonexistent right now.  Literally. I've spent this entire week along with everyone else at camp get ready for the campers to get here on Monday.  I'm teaching the Drama and Acting Classes here at camp for boys and girls ages 7-16.  Our first production will be The Wizard of Oz.  We have four weeks to audition, learn lines, get scenery, and stage cews all put together.   Rough.  Our second production will be Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.  I'm super excited for Snow White.  It's my favorite Disney movie of all time. :) 

So that's basically it for camp. So far.  But hopefully I can find some time once the campers arrive to keep you all updated on whats going on in my life.  Considering we're running on Chicago time, that means that I'm an hour behind all you Ohio people. My day starts at 7:45am and goes to around 11pm (or for you, 8:45am to midnight).  It's a tough life.  Really. 

More soon.  Happy Reading, Stay Excellent.  Me. :)

My Boring Life.

I have absolutely nothing to say.   Not inspired.  Hmph. And that makes me angry.  I would love to entertain you all with my awesome wit and sense of humor, but I just can't think of anything.  Probably because I spent the day packing my miscellaneous items for camp, 7 days from now.  But anyway, more later.

Happy Reading, stay excellent. Me.
