I have a camper with attitude. Her cup runeth over with it, that's for sure. But thankfully, after involving the leadership team with a mild issue, she was great last night during Devotions, and solid all day. Until my break. (Why is it that kids decided to go bananas when all supervision is gone? Honestly. Either I'm on my break, or taking a poo. Seriously. ) So I'm sitting here, as per usual, with laptop in hand and sour gummy worm in mouth, when a leadership team gal comes roaring up the stairs, fuming from her ears. I will call her Gertrude. PAUSE. If I could dislike someone here, it would be her. OK, I lied - DO dislike someone here, and she happens to be on A Team. She uses her fake leadership skills to make her self the center of everyone's circle. I swear it's a talent she has - it's unbelievable how loud and obnoxious one person can be in the midst of a crowded and buzzing dinning room. ANYWHO. Turns out my favorite little camper was beating the poop out of her cousin, who also is my cabin, on their way to a field game. Gertrude, while walking by, sees this, flips her hair, and begins to reprimand my favorite camper in her nasally voice of annoyance. Not a good combo, let me tell you. My favorite camper rolls her eyes and brushes Gertrude off. Gertrude can't believe someone isn't giving her attention, so freaks out, telling my favorite camper that she has one chance to smarten up, or their will be consequences. (AKA - Gertude talking about herself incessantly while Favorite Camper is forced to listen. LOL. oops...) So, one day of success flushed down the proverbial toilet. All I can do sometimes, is just laugh, and shake my head at the ironic combination of the most rude child and the abundantly self-righteous leadership team member. Tuesday has almost come to a close, and it's been full of non stop action, without a doubt. But despite my camper issues, beef's with the leadership team, and digestive problems related to the lack of veggies, I love it here. And boy, will I miss it.
Peace, Love, and Joy.
