camp #1

hey all. im trying to update more. camp is going well. it's been a week since the campers have gotten here, and it's been going really well. it rained for a while and was pretty miserably cold which had the campers pretty down and made doing anything much besides putting on 8 layers and curling up under all of my/our blankets.
teaching jewelry has gone well. it's intimidating but i've actually been really enjoying teaching. it's frustrating sometimes because there's a point that no matter how many times or ways i explain something they still don't get it. but at the same time, when they do get it and are interested it's 10x's better and totally worth it.
i also got an awesome new north face vest for 50 bucks yesterday at the north face outlet im pumped i guess it retails at around 82-120. woot woot! there's also a really sick store around here called mexacali blues that has the coolest clothes in the world. it's all awesome hippy clothes and sick awesome nastiness. in love. i will probably spend almost all of my money there. that and being really close to ll bean and all the cool outlets and two awesome bead shops. let's see how much money i keep from my paycheck. hahaha.
i have a job in september. woot woot. call/email me if you want to know what it is. but it's nice to know i have employment when the summer's over. especially in this economy (etc etc blah blah blah) so hoorah.
so other than that, not much is new. food here is great. the kids are great. my campers in my cabin are great. things are all around pretty freakin awesome. we're watching pirates of the carribean in the staff lounge right now, it feels like i ahve so much time off. it's great, a total change from theatre work. woot woot. alright off i go. call me/write me/email me.

hey all!
so hopefully I won't be so lax as I was on tour. We'll see. I'm at Camp Kingsley Pines this summer as a camp counselor and jewelry making instructor, should be wicked fun. Maine is beautiful, and it's fun being at camp, even though it's just staff training this week. the summer looks promising.
send me letters and packages!

my name (michelle obvi)
