Camp War Eagle vs Kanakuk

It's that time again.

End of the school year, start of summer.

It's no secret I'm a big lover of summer (see post below).

But this is the time to start thinking about camp.

Yup.

Camp.

I know there are a lot of college students that think camp counselors are annoying and think that it's a dumb job and give us typical stereotypes and what not...


(ie; choco/teva/keen loving, watch wearing, large v-necks and niki shorts only, kiddie jewelry, funny tan line people are "naturally" camp counselors)...


but I love the job.

My best memories, and some of my best friends came from camp.


[Sidenote: I usually spell camp with a "K", because I worked at

Kanakuk Kamps and they spell EVERYTHING with a "K". But I refrained. You're welcome.]


This summer instead of working at Kanakuk, I will be at Camp War Eagle in Rogers, AR.

Most of my friends and family thought I was crazy for changing camps.

Mostly because I am a die-hard Kanakuk fan.

I just felt like a change.

I felt like the Lord wanted something different for me.

I still feel that way...but it's somewhat frustrating knowing all my firends are going back to

and I'm going to be somewhere completely different.

I'm trying really hard not to go into it with any expectations.

I'm REALLY going to miss Kamp.

I'm also really excitedt to try something different

and see what the Lord has in store for me.

We'll see how it goes.

Senioritis

Oh wait, I'm not graduating til December.


Makes it that much harder.


I need you, Summmmmmmer.


I've literally been dreaming of sailboats.




I'm a nerd and miss summer so much I made this...


10 Best Things About Summer:


(Yeah...I went there.)




(Not in ranking order)



1. Lake Eufaula


(This includes sailing, wakeboarding, skiing, tubing, kyaking,


basically anything boat, swimming, sand volleyball, etc.)




2. Sunglasses


(Thank the Lord for warm weather)




3. The smell of freshly cut grass


(Reminds me of my daddy)




4. My sunroof


(open 24/7)




5. Tan lines


(You love them. Don't lie.)




6. No school


(If there were a ranking order,


this would probably be numero uno)




7. Campfires/Smores


(These go together always right?)




8. Flip Flops


(Although I still prefer barefoot to any shoe)




9. Sweet Tea and Sunflower Seeds


(These definitely go together. AND I know


these are available year round but they taste SO much


better during the summer for some reason. )




10. My Dock


(Where my hammock is located=my haven.)






If I keep dreaming of these things,


I will NEVER graduate.






Motivation motivation motivation motivation motivation.......


I need some. Pronto.

Hmmm...... This guy is good for that....






Steve Moakler.



Beautiful right? I know.



I'm on a huge kick right now. So check him out.



His lyrics are nothing short of amazing.





That's all I have.

Its 1am and yet again I'm awake.

Maybe that goes away when you graduate?



Counting the days...
