When we last left off, I was heading back down for lunch, and I had a great time that afternoon with archery. I talked this camper into having a competition with me. If I won, he had to go get me a pop from the canteen (using my money of course). If he won, I would buy him something. I wasn't allowed to leave the archery area, as it was my shift, and so that was my best bet to get some caffeine for the afternoon. I won by 5 points :D. Yay me!! The poor kid was NOT happy, and he would not follow through on his word, so Daniel told him he'd be pulled from the real archery competition if he didn't follow through on his promise. Daniel told me that the kid, who he had known for a couple of years, was just mad that a girl beat him. :D That night at chapel we had a little celebration time for the kids that had accepted Christ. I had 5 of my 8 stand up! They hadn't even talked to me at all, and I know several of them had already accepted Christ away from camp just months before. I think they were a little confused, but it was great to see them proclaim their faith in front of the camp anyway. They're precious kids. Saturday morning was a sad thing, cause I did not want them to leave at all. I hope I get to see them again. Last week I think will be my favorite week of the summer. Though an even better one would be pretty awesome as well! :D
This weekend Katie, Alison, and I went to Prairie Du Chien (spelling) and picked up a few things for the craft room. Our green paint smelled like rotting peas, so we DEFINITELY needed new. We ate at the Skinny Dip, which for any Ackley people, is kinda like a drive up Gus and Docs. It was amazing! We then watched Monty Python, which was supposed to be amazing but I was bored through the entire thing. But something hilarious happened during this time. I was sewing a dress for myself while the movie was playing, and Alison looks up and says there was a mouse in the ceiling light! I thought she was trying to pull my leg, then Katie sees it too! So I stare at the light above my head and then I SEE IT!! These little pink paws are just chilin' on the plastic covering of the light!! Start yelling my head off and it scurries away. I go tearing out of the lodge yelling for Camie. She tells me to catch it alive so I can feed it to the python!! I love camp!
Now, you have read about me having a college class, but nothing about how it's going. I honestly had no idea until Sunday. I have two sites that my information is on, and none of them said anything about homework or tests or even anything math related. One of the sites said I needed something updated. So I had someone look at it, and they tried to tell me I needed a 30 dollar update. I was not happy. Then I'm sitting with my computer, and Nathan R comes over and asks me how I am, and I ask if he knows anything about Macs. He then proceeds to tell me I need to download Google Chrome. I let him, because I'm desperate, and then BOOM! I have all this extra stuff on my websites!! I have 50 questions to finish that night and a test the next day. First question: write an integer between two decibel numbers. WHAT IS AN INTEGER?! I finally figured it out and finished the homework. The first 5 questions and the textbook freaked me out until I realized I did this all before in high school. I even ended up getting 100% on the test in 11 minutes the next day!! My next test is on my birthday. Hopefully it will be that easy too!
This week we have the camp rented out to a church group. It's very different from other camps, but it leaves perfect amounts of time to finish projects all over camp, from weed wacking to painting projects. I've been in the craft room, obviously, and we're getting a lot of things done and had a lot of new crafts made. I made this just today.
It's with a VHS case!! We have a bunch and I'm so excited!! I'm going to add a strap! I need to go out to my cabin, but I will update on more of the projects later on. I love my craft room!
