Long Time No Blog

Hey Everyone.....well everyone being like 2 people....maybe 3! Oh well, so I haven't posted in a while because my last week was so hectic!! I was a Jr. Counselor at a camp with weight training 3 days that week!! Anyways, I was working with ten year olds and I swear, I've never had to take so many kids to the nurses office before!! No one was seriously hurt, it was little things so no worries. So most of the kids were good with the occasssional show off or bragger (I don't even know if that last word is an actual word....). There was one kid, bless their heart, who was a bit overly dramatic, but I felt kinda bad for them. For example we would play battle dodge ball with those really squishy balls, the kind where it stings maybe a little but nothing more than that. So we would be playing and someone would throw the ball at them and they would get out and go off crying, saying they wanted to go home and wanted their mom......pitiful right? I felt so bad. But as soon as someone on their team caught the ball and everyone was able to come back in, they were ready to go!! There were many other......incidents with this kid, but I won't comment on those. Anyways, I'm doing it all again tomorrow with a different group at camp. The only difference of this upcoming week is I have weight training only one day and practice three days, so I'm pretty pumped!!! Have a good week!

Hence the Name "Blog of Random"

Well, I have a bunch of really random stuff to say, so I'm proud to say my blog lives up to its name!! Well first, I finish All Quiet on the Western Front for summer reading and the ending was sad!! Almost all the characters you are introduced to in the first chapter all die by the end of the book. But of course, it is a war novel and it is about the German soldiers in World War I; I guess I could have seen that all the main characters would die...

Second, today while I was reading I got to use these hammocks my dad got for my mom and me for Christmas. I know most of you are thinking, "Hammocks? For Christmas? How strange." And I can't say I disagree with you entirely; this was a pretty unique idea of my dad's, but let me explain. While in Honduras, the place we stayed at had a little dock which had hammocks at the end. This is where a lot of people did their surface intervals in between dives. (Surface intervals help bring down nitrogen levels after you dive....at least I think it's nitrogen...) My mom and I especially loved the hammocks, so my dad ordered some from Mexico, so we could enjoy them during the summer.

Third, my fish tank is full of freaking baby fish!! I swear one of my female guppies is like a breeding machine!! I have 8 babies in a little breeder thing, and 8 free swimming out in the open water!! I also got three panda corries, however one unfortunately died....

Finally, my hectic summer starts on Monday. I know that most of you are thinking, "Haven't you been on summer break already." The answer is yes, yes I have. Have I been doing anything? No, not really. You see starting on Monday until the end of June I am going to be a Jr. Counselor AND will have workouts 3 times a week!! Then in July, I'm going camping for a weekend then have practices all throughout July along with teamcamp and a sleep away camp with my friends. My summers are always really busy!!

Well that's all for now, hope everyone's having a great summer! Ciao!

If You Only Knew

Ok so there's this great song that I love right now. It's called If You Only Knew and it's by Savanna Outen. She's really talented and you can check out the song on Youtube (and if you don't know what that is.....well where have you been? Under a rock? just kidding!). Anyways I'm starting being a counselor next week along with workouts so if I don't post for a while.....it's because camp and workouts is taking my life away haha. Oh well, that's it for now! Hope ya'll are having a great summer and go check out this awesome song!!
