I went to camp this monday.
Jr 1 started on tuesday.
I came home today for my sister's graduation.
The campers are on their outtrip right now. I was only at camp for 1 full day with campers there, but it felt like a week. It is very weird to be at home during a camp. And to know that I am going back tomorrow and none of the campers will even know that I was gone. But it feels like I am in a different world right now. It was so bizarre. As I was driving home everything felt like it was changing from 'camp mode' to 'regular life mode'. And tomorrow I will change back into camp mode.
Head counselling has been good so far. But I can already see that it will require things of me that are hard. It will be good though, to be stretched and to grow. I am generally a non-confrontational person. I am more of a passive-aggressive type. So dealing bluntly and openly with staff members (especially those I know well) when there are issues with their behaviour, attitude, etc. will be VERY hard for me. But will probably be a very useful skill for me in other parts of my life.
Anyways. I love camp. The new lodge is big and convenient. But will take some getting used to. I am living in the same teepee as when I did COLTS. Back then, I was right in the middle of everything. Now it feels like my teepee is on the outskirts of camp. Its kind like it is off in the slums of CROW. Over with all the old, run-down cabins and the boarded up dining hall in the abandoned courtyard. It is a little sad.
