Period. You are amazing and it is such a pleasure to watch you grow as an individual and as a counselor. I love you, and am VERY proud of you. Congrats. ((and thanks for my bday love!!)
policewomantori:
so, the way the CA program works at bonnie brae is that all of the CAs live together in one cabin. we wake up early in the morning, separate before breakfast, and go to our various units and program areas for the day. one CA may go work at the waterfront all day while another goes to work with the group of girls that is learning a guitar while et another spends their days with the girls who are working on a musical. at nine o’clock every night, the CAs meet up with eachother and whatever other leadership program is running that week (CITs or staffers) to debrief the day with our two main counselors. next we shower and go back to the cabin to talk to our “night supervisor” and hang out until we fall asleep and do it all over again.
today i found out that me and my good friend nannerz (anna to all you non-camp people) have been assigned to sleep in a unit for the next week, just like full counselors. this doesn’t sound like a big deal, but it is. CAs have not slept in units for over ten years, but nannerz and i have been told that we have earned it. the fact that we are working with the same group was surprising enough, because normally they don’t put really close friends in the same unit. the director told us that it was her idea to put us in the unit because we both have been doing such good jobs this year and we deserve it. i am so flattered and excited and comforted about the fact that they trust us so much, and i can’t wait for sunday.
i had a ticket to go to jason mraz on tuesday with talia and nicole. i was really excited and had already cleared it with the camp director that i would leave monday around noon and return to camp before breakfast on wednesday. when i came home today, however, plans were slightly changed and would result in me missing even more camp time. had this coming week been scheduled like a normal CA one, i would have attempted to push things around to get to do both. but given an opportunity as rare as this one, i would rather miss the show than miss a week as full of potential as this one.
so i am currently in the process of finding someone to buy my ticket. as excited as i was for this show, i am even more excited to be able to spend a week on the level that i will hopefully be next summer. and as difficult as it is going to be to hear jason mraz music and realize i passed up the show, it would be even more difficult wondering what i missed while away from camp.
i hope this is the right choice.
I has no question but think whoev asked you to pick between the 2 sweetest kids everrrrr is RI DIC U LOUS…Arg! Glad you aer having a good summmer…(so are they) :0D
LOOOOVE YOU!

With a glue stitch, a hole through my cheek and a gash on my chin.
Fucking bit on the face by a dog. Awesomee.
My medstudent/doctor dude was flipping gorgeous, and my other docs and nurses were really friendly and kind. Just took forever, but I’m one of the most patient people I know, so no big deal.
David, Maggie and Steve came to get me/find me but i had left before they got there, and I walked to their house and they weren’t there so I walked all the way home. They eventually found me and we went and got donuts at UDF.
And now i’m back and my face is starting to hurt a little.
I am in a super duper incredible mood. Reasons why:
I got to talk to my Tori and make plans to see her
Went to the Fest of All with Ma Dukes for yummy food & some KILLA entertainment…LOL drunken old people dancing…(vids to come)…
Kent and I have a lovely evening + Sunday planned with lots of fun
Camp is going REALLY well
I’m feeling strong an healthy
I have a hint that I will have a ring very soon…hehe I’m sneaky…
And the Summer 2009 has only just begun so only more good things can happen :0)
So CHEERS to a summer of change…<3
If you get this while you are home from camp, please call me. It has been an emotional good & I wrote you a letter about all the YAY stuff but already REALLY miss having you around for the YUCKY stuff…
Otherwise…i’ll write it all down too…you can’t get away from me! Muhahaha!
Love you.

Tara: I love you, and your son very much. No matter what, I will stand by you both. I am sorry for the loss of Josh, but things happen for a reason…trust me. Two steps back…one giant leap forward, TOGETHER. We’ll get through this and Colby will be a successful, amazing, caring man being raised by a village of people who love him.
Tori: Thanks for this morning. You have inspired me to make the best of this summer and Camp JCC has no idea what is coming for them :0) I love you endlessly and could not ever picture my life without you now that I have you.
Kent: With the recent loss of Colby’s daddy, I have found a new appreciation for you, for us. Our petty bickering seems so silly now…I promise to be more decisive and to stop complaining about the little things. I love you and even after 5+ yrs, you’re still the only person who can give me butterflies..
Mom & Mike: You’re my family..the only people who share my DNA and accept me and all my flaws. Thank you for ALWAYS accepting me, even when I made it near impossible. I love you guys.
To everyone from work: Please don’t forget to think about people other than yourselves…it’s so easy to focus on our own lives and forget about the little things in other people’s…thoughtfullness is a gift, use it.
Congrats HS & College grads…don’t lose the innocence of kindness and naivety…
I’m going to make another drink and enjoy my night…more weird thoughts to come.
<3
Happy Prom Friends!
Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do! ;0)
