junior 1 camp

words cant even begin to describe how this past week has been for me.... but obviously, this is a blog and it needs words, so i will try to scratch the surface.

okay i was working at this camp which was for 3-6th graders. i dont know why or how but the speaker had such a bigger impact on me than the teen camp speaker last year. ive come out of this week feeling closer to God than i have ever been and it is the most amazing feeling in the world. this week i had to face some iffy things and they are still goin and im gonna have to deal with them this week at teen camp... but even through that i feel like God is right beside me guiding me through it. He put me in a group of 8 girls who helped me and stood by me through the week... they are seriously a gift from God! we stayed up till like 1 or 2 in the morning every night and talked through stuff.... we laughed all the time! i cried 3 times on thursday because i was laughing so hard! :D the week was not easy at all but the fellowship was what made it sooo amazing! the worship during chapel really felt like real worship to me. at school during chapel it always felt fake but this week it was real and it was amazing!

i could type up all kinds of stories from the week but i think last night was the most amazing. i got to hang out with the 2 cabins that won in the points competition. i was fine and then i ate a bite of someones ice cream and my stomach was not happy! i felt like i was gonna throw up.... but i didnt. one of my friends helped me feel better and then we noticed that all the kids were "missing". then we looked to the back of the dining hall and there was little head popping around the walls. it turned into a crazy game of "staff-catch-the-campers" and visa-versa. it was so funny to watch.... a bunch of highschool/college students chasing these crazy little kids around.... they had us knocked down on the floor jumping all over us. it was so much fun.... i felt like such a kid.... it was amazing! then we stayed up till 2am talking and laughing! so much fun but.... then we had to get up at 5:30. eeek. not so fun! i think 3/4ths of us in the cabin ended up sick because of the AC and lack of sleep but it was all worth it!

overall my week was extraordinarily amazing! im so excited to go back tomorrow!!!! :D
