Junior (Mints) Samplers

-
So on Friday I learned that I am with the Junior Samplers with Blue. A lot has gone wrong and we are only 24 hours in; however, these kids leave on Tuesday evening.
Juniors A- 9 campers in 2 tents (one of 5 and the other of 4)
Juniors B- 4 campers in 1 tent!

The things that have gone wrong so far... a list

  1. Not enough tents in Sleepy Hollow
  2. We were told we need an epi-pen but we don't
  3. We were both scheduled for kitchen on Friday
    1. quick update on that they never told my kitchen buddy that she was in kitchen
  4. One girl spontaneously breaks into hives for no reason
    1. I had to walki Goosey about it

Junior Samplers Round 2
So on Wednesday we got 4 new juniors to have for the rest of the week. Everything is going grand we got their names down to a T(i). Then we are walking back up from lunch and one of our girls has peed herself. Which fine accidents happen but neither blue nor I had ever dealt with this before so we had no idea on how to handle it. Fortunately that was the only major incident. This second wave of girls had a wide wide range in personality but they ask merged together so beautifully.

I lost the game! and other fun traditions

-
One day last week, or maybe it was the week before, was national wear your camp t-shirt day-of which no one (at school) that I know participated. However there is no need to fret because yours truly-super counselor extraordinaire remembered and wore her staff shirt from last summer. This combined with the Hillel retreat where we sang a lot of the end of session songs and an email encouraging us to apply for summer 2020, reminded me of all the little traditions from camp that I wish took place more in my daily life. For my camp friends reading this I hope it doesn't make you too nostalgic, and for everyone else maybe this a way to bring a little bit of fun to the office or maybe the holidays. The pineapple game When you are out with a group of people the first one to point to the pineapple and say I win. Wins. Yep- that's the whole game. I do highly recommend it for group shopping trips as it brings a sense of adventure to what can be a drab day at the mall. Invisible ...

Less Busy

Yesterday I got up and worked on some papers and then around 11 decided to make up my mind for the day. I had a kind bar and hit the road. I went to the Barbican, Postman's Park, and Postal museum The Barbican is a really unique building because it has plants overall the windows. The Postman's Park is much smaller than many parks that I have been to but that there are some titles that describe heroic events live saving children from a fire. Finally the Postal museum was incredible. I didn't think that I would enjoy it nearly as much as I did. Also at the museum, you can ride the mail rail, which is the old mail cart which would run under the city. Overall I had a great time and I was able to walk most of these so I saw many new parts of the city. Today I leave for Derby today to visit a camp friend. Don't expect any more posts until Sunday Morning. Have a Great Weekend!

Meal Prep and a Movie

-
This will be brief because I am going to watch a movie with some friends. Today I got up and read in bed for a bit. I then got up and worked out before going foodshopping. I got stuff for the week and also to make Nutella brownies with. They were pretty good, a little gooey but that didn't stop anyone. I then proofread a paper and did more research for AA overall it was a really chill day.
