The Diva is Back!

Sorry about my hiatus, friends! 
Well, earlier this semester the time came to decide what I wanted to do this summer. Of course I had so much fun last summer at camp but did I want to do it again? PTL Anna and Kanuga came to  PC for a camp fair and I immediately knew after i felt the immense amount of pride I had for Kanuga that I had to go back. And luckily, I convinced two of my besties, Harriet and Townley to apply to work there too!
We found out a few weeks ago that we all got hired! What a blessing it will be to have two of my dearest friends at camp this summer for a few reasons:
1)We're all 21 now, so I'll have someone to do adult things with on weekends
2) I'll always have a little piece of PC with me in the mountains with my pals
3) I can get away from the young crowd from last year...you know how much I love a good highschool throw down! not.
4) I know they'll always have me laughing
5) They're my sisters...any other reasons? 


Although I'm super bummed that my old boss, Anna, left us and decided to pursue a different career path, I'm super excited about working with Bethany this summer! I've only met her via Skype but she seems really awesome and so fun!

My job this year is different than last year. Although I will for sure miss my babies in the Baker Building I wanted to work in more than just one area of Kanuga, so I applied to be the Assistant to the Program Director, which means I kind of help with everything. If a program needs an extra hand, I fill in, or I help get carnival together, or help set up for an event. Kind of an all-conclusive job description which I feel like fits me well because I don't have a very long attention span. 


Thinking about this summer makes me so happy, yet so sad at the same time. This week at school it's our last week of classes and I've already begun counting down "The Lasts"...and I'm thinking of this summer as "my last" summer of freedom. Ideally, next summer I'll either be preparing for Graduate School or be Employed by the real world, but if that doesn't work out I'll always be welcome at Kanuga. I cannot believe I'm almost a Senior...until I have to face the facts, I'm going to continue living in denial while getting tan. 


I leave June 4 so let the countdown begin! Until then, here's a list of everything I'm excited for this summer:
1) Seeing my babies from the Baker Building..in particular, Sweaty May. 
2) Reuniting with my old pals from last year, specifically Nan, Chelsea, Kat, and Nicole. 
3) THE LAKE...seriously it may smell funky some days but it is so beautiful
4) Slip N Slide
5) Building back up my Chaco Tan
6) Playing No Bones
7) Carnival Nights 
8) Smiling and trying to suck up to Miss Anita
9) Getting to order prizes off of Oriental Trading...I could do it all day
10) Rocking on the big front porch of the conference center...one of life's little pleasures.


I'll cut the list there, but here's to another summer of laughs, sun tans and some more funny stories to throw your way!
