so i'm having my 2nd pm off period in as many days. just went for lunch at rudi's deli with erin and carrie. it was somewhat interesting to eat with both of them since just a month ago they were CITs(counsellor-in-training) and we treated them as campers. but they're both really nice and carrie is to'm's(camper from sessions 5 & 6)older sister and they super duper look alike siah! anyway we had abit to talk about. they ask alot about the gossip in camp and what's going on. apparently they think i know alot but always act blur(its true) so they were trying to weed alot of shit outta me. erin was bitching alot about the CIT program and which of the staff she liked and who she absolutely dispised, then she was telling us about herself and brandon having a brief fling and blah. carrie was like the listener most of the time while i constantly chomped on my chicken salad sandwich when i was pretending not to know what she was talking about. haha. damn baguah.
anyhow i had my mandarin and chopsticks appreciation class this morning. it was my biggest class ever with 15 campers in all. i'm glad they all enjoyed it and everyone brought their disposable chopsticks that i gave them to lunch. luckily no one was really good at chopsticks when i organized the chopsticks championships this time round(last week i was trashed by andrea the sushi queen).
last night was dance night. i think it was the most horrible night i've seen in regards to girls and boys getting dumped. i had at least 5 campers coming up to me face full of tears sobbing about how they'd just been dumped by whoever who asked them to the dance prior. i mean wah lao eh its only a dance lor!! but these kids really take it so seriously, especially the girls. if their 'date' dances with another guy, they cry. 'date' goes play sproutball, they cry. 'date' goes toilet, they cry. wah lau. sibeh kua zhang. like their whole life has been ruined liaoz. somehow i don't remember myself ever being in sucha scenario before. still there i was sitting on the picnic benches pretty often with a sobbing camper beside me asking me dumb questions like "why doesn't he like me?" or "why is she so mean?". thankfully i occasionally had andy kolby and brandie(together we called ourselves the heartbreakers club) to listen to those sob stories as well.
my very own cherokee cabin did vespers last night. it was really good. i would think it would've been one of the better cabin vespers yet. our chosen topic was perseverance. dylan and grant spoke of lance armstrong, brodie spoke about james stewart, roby and cary read inspirational quotes that i found for them, ryan told tyler's story about the boy whose father was blind, brent told a fisherman's tale and finally i sang the song 'ming2 tian1 hui4 geng4 hao3'. so that went well.
this is perhaps my closest cabin yet. in terms of togetherness, this cabin is really champion. somemore we could win the cleanest cabin this week*fingers crossed* so thats gonna be quite sweet. last night, in celebration of what a good vespers we did, i did girl devotion with the kids. campers are enamoured by the concept of girl devotions. its devotion whereby campers get to ask any question they want pertaining to the opposite sex. they love it and by golly do they have alot of questions or what. so there i was alone(it was tyler's night off) giving my take and advice on everything from "how do you make a girl like you?" to " what if i like my best friend's girlfriend?". feels like aunt aggie live in person, but then again it was uber fun.
guess thats about it for now. rockies game tomorrow. whoooooooo!!!!!
oh yah i also got my second batch of pix burnt into cd liaoz(thanks james!), too bad i don't have it with me now else i would definitely post them up. anyway time to clean up my messy mailbox and then its back to camp for closing vespers liaoz...sobz, time passes so fast...especially when you're enjoying yourself so much...
