camp

the rite of summer

in ,

...comes ooey gooey, 
totally melty, 
and with a bit of leftover dirt from your marshmallow stick...
it'll blow a brit's mind...
extra points if you look like you just came from square dancing.
and triple that if you actually did...

-yeh!

counselors wearing homemade sweatbands

look! look! i'm a fashion blogger now! with the best kind of fashions, of course: the kind you make all on your own at the arts & crafts hut! the arts & crafts hut is my home away from home* away from home** away from home*** away from home****. i go there every day on my hour off and make tons of things. so far i've made three camera straps, a pot holder, some bracelets, ceramic mustard jars, ceramic plates, and lots of ceramic other things. hopefully i will soon find some feathers in the woods with which to make earrings. or maybe the hunting specialty will turn up a bear with which i can make fur earmuffs. kidding. hunting specialty doesn't exist. and if it did i wouldn't use a bear to make earmuffs. unless it was pooh. 


-yeh!

rainy day

in

rainy days at camp mean a few extra minutes of sleep, arts & crafts, and some quality time under my sushi blanket with a pen and my moleskine. lots of drawing pictures of all of the goodies that i will make when i finally have a kitchen again and even more writing letters to faraway friends... two days ago when it was really a rainy day, like raining mastiffs and lions, it was soup weathering so hard. to the point of scarves. and guess what? the cafeteria actually had the most amazing soup. there were vegetables and grains and yumminesses galore. it made me so excited for fall when soup weather visits, like, every other day. hehe. 

rainy days at camp have not yet meant shampooing in the rain though. which, as counselor molly, i might have to fix. {try it, really!!}

-yeh!
