Summer

If you know me at all, you know that summertime is my favorite time of year.  But this year summer means just a little bit more.

Why, you may ask?  Because this summer is the last summer I will spend as a college student.  Today was my last official day of work to turn in, and after spending countless hours working on projects, papers, analyzing student work, and writing lesson plans, I have finally finished with one of the busiest semester's of school ever.  And it feels damn good to be done.


Today was a gorgeous day in the mountains.  Sometimes I feel that I have really taken for granted this beautiful place I have been lucky enough to live for the past three years. It really hit me that I will only be living here for two more days, then it's off to the real world of student teaching and trying to find jobs.

 I mean really, how gorgeous is this view?  How can I leave this forever?


Anyway, all depressing thoughts of moving away aside, I cannot wait for summer because summer means....

CAMP!

My summer days are taken over by camp, and I love it. I am the theme camp director this year, I could not be more excited. Theme camps aren't going to know what hit them!

Now that I'm done with school, my next month will be spent planning activities, games, and crafts for camps that range from animal camp to pirate camp, and everything in between! 


What else will I ever to to fill my time?

• redesign my blog  finished today! 
• Finish Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
• Plan for theme camps
• Start running everyday
• Catch up on "Vampire Diaries" from the past few weeks
• Lay out by the pool
• Take vacations to the beach
• Start work at 131 Main

Any more summer suggestions?





"Are you feeling, feeling, feeling like I'm feeling
Like I'm floating, floating, up above that big blue ocean
Sand beneath our feet, big blue sky above our heads,
No need to keep stressing from our everyday life on our minds
We have got to leave all that behind..."
