Time for a new game I think
this is easy - i will start with a phrase and the next person posts a phrase that starts with the last word of the previous post!
Summer camp
sounds amazing!! I agree we do need a new game, I don;t know how many times we can go through the alphabet or ask the same this or that questions!
camp songs!
Up to the highest height!
summer lovin, had me a blast
central to life (camp that is)
(i hope you mean without!!!)
boring is not a good thing to be
Be not afraid to try new things!
Things are just things...
have a great summer at camp
friends see the real you!
awesome times at Killoqua! haha I won't be that mean! Go Camp K!
awesome times on the waterfront!
waterfront is my fav place on camp
camp holds many fond memories
memories help when things are tough
toughh campers can be the most rewarding in the end
end of camp is a sad time
time flies when you are at camp!
camp chenoa is where my heart is
February? No it is March (barely - the month is 3 mins old!)
for you! I still have another 8 hours!
March means 3 months!
months are too long - wish it was just days
Months seem to creep by when you want camp again!
again i have to decide what to take to camp
camp is the easiest to find a phrase using it!
it is only 102 days until I board a plane to the USA
USA is never warm, it seems!
seems like it is always raining in scotland
(oh and my cat is curled up around the computer cables!)
i don't know which one to do!
cables that hold us up when we zipline!
zipline is something I was too scared to try
try anything once, that's my motto!
mottos are phrases to live by
by gum, I will live by those phrases!
phrases can come in very useful
useful things to have are band-aids, water, and your version of the CBIAB!
CBIAB is simialar to my book of randomness
randomness at camp is oftentimes truly random, but sometimes planned!
planned activities should be flexible
Flexible is a trait all camp staff should have
Safety first!
(Does that count???)
(works for me!)
first comes campers
Campers are the reason there are counselors
Counselors drool, campers rule!
Teehee...
teehee! and as a counselor, I would have to say that I agree with you! After all, would we need counselors if not for the campers?
Rules sometimes actually make sense!
Sense... er, common sense, is nessecary for camp survival.
survival skills are oftentimes taught at camp!
Camp can't come soon enough!
enough with the stick throwing you guys!
Guys and girls cannot share cabins.
cabins are amazing! (so was your last post!!)
Haha, thank you.
Amazing friends can be made at camp.
just to be difficult...
camp is amazing!
Oh, well, great, thanks.
Amazing things can be seen nature.
nice save!! I like it!
nature is beautiful! (I could have been difficult again, but I decided to let you off this time!
)
Actually 'amazing' is pretty easy... (ignore the fact that I had to edit it!)
Beautiful things can be made in the Arts and Crafts hut.
hut rhymes with peanut
Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are popular at camp.
(At least at my camp...)
That was amazing Angharad!!
Peanut was my co one week!
Schedules are the only reason i get to where i need to be
Be happy and go with the flow.
(You guys had a busy weekend).
Flowing water can be dangerous if it goes really fast.
Sorry if it makes absolutely no sense.
fast is how quickly camp goes by
by july camp will be in session
sessions of camp are always different
different cultures make the world interesting
Interesting people can be met at camp.
camp is where my heart is
yet again i find myself wishing I was somewhere other than here
'here' is only temporary!
temporary lack of finances is frustrating
frustrating is waiting for an interview, too! may camp come soon soon soon!
soon i will be at camp - only 100 days!
days seem to go slower right now...i just thought about it, and my countdown, if i'm hired, is only 88-90 days?! what?!
what that is really soon - i am jealous
jealous of you am i, you have a job at camp!...wow, yoda speak much?
much of camp is about improvising
improv theater is the best!
Best summer plans are Camp plans!
plans are afoot to go to london for my Visa
Visa credit card would not be a good thing for me...i would buy lots and lots of camp stuff!
stuff - i have way tooo much stuff
stuff is overflowing my camp box!
Box of Matches for starting a fire
fire is necessary for roasting marshmallows
(lighters just dont work! I have tried!)
fires are not my friend...thanks to asthma!
asthma is the bane of my life
Now and then I like to think about camp
Camp is one of the best things ever invented.
invented, created, imagined!
Imagination is good for when you want to write a song, story, or skit!
skits are the best part about campfires, except s'mores!
S'mores are essential to a good campfire.
campfire lighting is a skill
Skills can be tought at camp.
camp is where the cool people go
Going to camp is something I look forward to all year!
year after year I have returned to camp
Camp feels like an eternity away.
away in the distance I can see a guide camping hut!
hut is spelled different than Hat
hat is the last three letters of the word that
this board really sucks you in
in the kitchen only if you are working
fun is what i like to have
have i made plans for the summer - yes indeed
indeed I am procrastinating now
now I should be making cards for a demo tomorrow
tomorrow is just a day away
fairies are so fun, my favorite is tinkerbell!
tinkerbell is in peter pan
yummy scrummy in my tummy
pleasant things make a day happier
ahead we look, toward summer!
summer camp is only 100 days away!
away with you! I have 109 days!! I wouldn't have notice if not for your post Smudge! Thanks! haha I have to write 8 pages in 1 day!! go me!!!! At least ther is one bright spot to a stressful day!!!!
day to day life can be dreary if not for the though of camp which is now only 99 days away!
away i want to go, backpacking and to the lake!
lakes are usually a good place to go Kayaking!
kayaking is my favorite waterfront activity, but canoeing suits me too!
too many days until i can be at camp!
camp seems very near yet very far
far away in New Hampshire is where I long to be
happy campers make for happy counselors
Counselors used to be strange specimens for me (why the hell would anybody want to roll around in sundae toppings???), but since I found the boards, I have discovered another side of them, and now I want to be one, too!
too weird- I have never had any counselors roll around in sundae toppings, but I did have counselors who had a frosting fight with our leftover snack frosting! I was in 6th grade, so this was the best part of my week!! haha
Haha, that's funny. I think the sundae toppings were for a skit or something. I don't really remember, though.
hmm well i havent rolled in sundae toppings but we did all eat ice cream with lots of toppings all over it when we were blindfolded and sat on our hands so we could only use our mouthes.
mouthes are very useful for eating with
With great power comes great responsibility
responsibility sometimes lays heavy on your shoulders
Shoulders allow you to carry backpacks to the meadow
meadows are good for games
games are one of my specialities - if you could be a counsellor who just specialised in running games (and doing archery) I would be very happy
does that bell mean fire drill or KP?
KP....what does that mean?
Means Kitchen Patrol- the campers of a unit set the tables in the dining hall. This kaper/chore is given to a different unit each day at my camp.
Camp is going to be so much fun!
Awesome is the fact that camp is going to rock!
rock n roll is cool music
Music is helpful for not being bored on the long flights to the USA.
USA is a long way away from home
Home is where the heart is... at camp!
camp has my heart, but is not geographically far away for me!
me time is something campers always want more of
of my list of favourite things camp is quite high up
up in the sky the big birdies fly while down in the nest the little birds rest
rest can be hard to find at camp
rocks arent nice to throw at people
people should all go to camp at least once
once you pop you just cant stop
stop look and listen when crossing roads
roads can be dangerous places
places that I want to be include camp and Utah
Utah was a fun place to go to play at being a cowboy
cowboys compete in rodeos
cool weather sometimes happens when you are at camp in New Hampshire
Hampshire is also a place in england
england is where I went to university
university is a place of learning
learning to be happy with who you are is of vital importance
importance is a tough word to start a sentence...
Sentences are made up of words
words arent the only way of expression
expression was seen on her face
fear is only in your head.
head is the opposite end of your body to toes
Toes are blue due to the cold
cold is the temperature of ice
water is good for swimming
swimming is my favorite activity at camp
camp is a four lettered word
words make up sentences (lol)
sentences are what we talk in
in or out the front door?
Door to the mind
*makes no sense
Gap years should be compulsory!
Education is necessary but should be fun!
Fun is out of school currently
currently school is too focused on tests (in the uk at least!)
Tests are the bane of my exsistence
existance is a hard word to follow
Nvm- Following my footsteps would be bad since I run into walls
walls are useful in houses
Houses make up neighborhoods
Neighbourhood watch is important.
Important papers to turn in
In America summer camps are a religion.
Marking the days left 'til I go to camp off my calendar is making me very depressed. I found out I'm only at 134!
Time goes by slowly when you're waiting for summer.
summer holidays for uni students are conveniently long
Long camp sessions are better in my opinion, but some say that short ones are.
are we as crazy for wanting to go to camp as some people think? i dont think so.
So much time left until camp, that I think I'll explode.
explode and you wont get to camp at all
all of us are camp lovers
lovers of camp are often misunderstood
Misunderstood is just something people call themselves when they want to feel sorry for themselves.
Themsevles is the plura form of himself or herself
herslef is a word i dont use much
nothing I want more than to be at camp right now
Now is the time to get prepared!
prepared for camp - i already am - it would take me an hour to pack!
Pack my bag and off I go, to the land where summer camps are the attraction!
Attraction to camp is what brings me back every year.
Return for the fantastic campers and to make new friendships.
Friendships are what keeps most people going.
going to camp is the best summer anyone could ask for!
For camp, I am most definitely willing to sit through two flights across the Atlantic.
Atlantic ocean seperates us
lovers might be found at camp- more likely if at a co-ed camp!
(I love your caveman english!)
Thanks!
Camp is what I look forward to all year.
Year after year I will return
returners to camp going through CA get to pay only 1/2 price
price of gas keeps rising! make it stop!!
sign language is something i would love to learn! i must go to bed now, i must go abscond...
Abscond is a hard word to spell
spell-ing is my favorite! abscond was my word of the day!
Say, did you ever try going to camp? It's the best!
best time of your life, that's for sure!
Being at camp makes me happy.
Happy days are to be had at camp and is it possible to end with be and begin with being, because I think its cheating :P
Cheating is for idiots...
And I think it counts, because being is the present form of to be...
be prepared it the Girl Guides motto
Mottos can be useful to have.
have you been outside lately? the weather is sad.
Sad and depressing are not things you see during summer.
summer is only 95 days way for me and my rubber chicken Fred
Fred must be looking forward to another summer with Smudge and the gang.
Gangs are not usually found at camp.
camp is where my heart is
yet we always want to go back, no matter what we get paid!
Paid or not, I would love to be able to work at camp.
camp songs rock the most!
most of the time, i'm thinking dearly about camp memories...
memories I will never forget
forget what people think about you, it's what you see that counts!
Counts
downs are amazing and also agonizing!
Agonizing is this wait...
wait wait wait for camp all winter and then it feels like it is over before it began
begin camp as early as possible!
begin to start thinking about what to take and packing
packing is only fun when you are going somewhere you want to go
Go to camp I thought all those years ago, who knew it would turn into an obsession!
obsession isn't that the name of perfume for guys!
Guys are not allowed at Girl Scout camps!
Boy Scout ones are fine, though.
Though is a hard word to start a sentence with
With camp to look forward to, I am very happy.
name is something you are given - unless you have changed yours!
wrestling with my dog to get my tennis balls back!
back to back running of Camp mix cds
CDs are not allowed to be brought by campers at some camps.
camps encourage growth and individuality
individuality is only harbored and nurtured in a camp environment.
Environment protection is something encouraged.
encouraged is something we should all feel at camp
camp is a place we call home
Home is where I get camp sick, but camp is not where I get home sick.
Fun having is what we go to camp for.
for we will always remember our camping days and friendships true.
(bonus if you know what song that is from!)
true friends are hard to find
Finding good friends at camp is not very hard, though.
though it does depend on what sort of person you are
Are you the type of person who makes friends easily?
Away to camp is where I go every summer.
summer camp starts in 90 days for me!
Me is very jealous of you.
you came up with a good one campluver!
Campluver is my name!
(And thanks, btw...)
name that tune is fun game to play with camp songs
Songs are often sung at camp fires.
fires are fun when run safely and there isn't a fire ban
Ban bullying, begin with friendship!
friendships made at camp rock the most!
Most of all, I love going to camp.
camp is getting closer day by day
Y-yes it is, can't wait till summertime
summertime is the best time to hold a Summer camp
Camp took a chunk of my heart and refuses to let go
go home for the winter and plan to come back next summer
(cedar trees I really like what you said! It is soo true!)
summer is nearly here but what should I pack?
pack your song book and your rubber chicken and then you are ready for anything
anything you can't fit into your rucksack you probably shouldn't be taking anyway!
exactly!
must haves: cards, duct tape, extra bear, rubber chicken and you're set!
set is something a badger lives in!
in 2 months i will be flying over to camp.
(is that right ahahha )
Planes are fun I've learned after flying to camp last summer and I'll be flying again this year.
Yeah erin - you got it right!
years without camp suck!
sucky that it is only March!
march is one month closer to camp! (YAY!)
yay - only 82 days until I get to fly to my beloved Camp Chenoa
chenoa i have no idea were that is
Is in New Hampshire and it is one of the bestest camps in the whole wide world
World is sometimes a sad place and when the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.
peace is part of what my camps name means - Chenoa means peace with nature
home is where the heart is - and I left my heart at camp!
camp is only 2.5 moths away!!!
ahh excitement!
excitement for camp seems to be building
building my list of things i need to buy before summer!
Summer is the best- where els can you sing songs about a dead buffalo?
buffalo, oh he lost his brother, that poor buffalo.
buffalo live in the desert, where nature knows no man
man it would be nice if camp time was right around the corner!
corner fells like it has been rounded now that easter is more or less over!
over the rainbow there is a wonderful world called camp
camp is where my heart is
is there such a place where i can be home but not at my camp?
camp physically serveral thousand miles away from me but it is close to my heart
hearts beware! Camp is a heart thief!
thief of our hearts maybe - but we willingly let it be so
so we come back year after year
yearly returning to camp makes the drudgery of winter more easily endured!
endurance is much necessary in this wait for summer!
summer is over in australia but is about to begin in america
america is amazing it has many camps!
camp's not too far away!!!!
Away Message always says my Camp Addy about a week before camp... so people can snail mail me!
me is trying somethin new.
(what terrible english that was)
new camp in a new state is where I'm heading!
heading to a place thats going to be heaps of fun
me, myself, and I love camp!
Camp Tweedale is my home.
home is where your heart is and mine is firmly planted in the USA and at camp!
Camp makes my heart sing with glee!
glee is something I will be feeling when I fly to camp on June 11th
11th is when smudge is flying
flying through the air my heart will be, when the gates of camp i'll see
june is not so far away! only 67 days!
days is how im counting till i go to camp
camp mad is how many people would describe the users of this forum!
forums take up my whole day
day by day camp grows closer
closer we grow to camp time!!
time flies when you are thinking of camp
camp how i love that word
word are not always necessary to for the expression of our emotions!
emotions are going to be excited when i get to camp.
im so bad at this hahah
not long till i get to fly 33.5 hours :|
33.5 hours is approximately a day and a half! (that one was slightly evil! hahaha nice!)
half of my flight i think i will annoy people next to me.
Me love camp (yuck! horrible english and grammar! (cringe))
home, is what i feel when I land in the USA
USA is where i live and always have
have you begun packing for camp?
Camp is in 84 days but i have acutaly got a few things together!
together putting is what I am doing with my ideas! (haha horrible grammar)
ideas are something i am being asked for alot lately!
lately, i have been missing camp more and more.
more and more hours i sit on forums
days seem shorter at camp
excited is what I currently am and getting more so each and every day
days left in australia are limted
limited days in school makes me happy!
happy am I at the thought of returning to camp
required attendance at camp would be wonderful - for those who love it - but those who hate it (strange to think of) would spiol it
it is seriously all we talk about haha
haha is commonly used to show we are laughing
fun can be had with a rubber chicken
meat is good with mushrooms
i love mushrooms
mushrooms rock my socks
socks are essential for my camp. ( I heart mushrooms 2)
topics like this i could stay on forever!
forever is how the wait feels till camp
camp is going to be the best time of my life!
life can be better with camp
camp is in colebrook connecticut
conneticut is the state i did my report on in 5th grade
grade we use year not grade
years can be never ending if we dream of it
food smells good in restaurants!
restaurants are fun to eat in
in camp i can be very outgoing
outgoing is my middle name!
outgoing i am but im even more loud
name is stupid shay who skips me haha
hahaha - jokes and pranks make camp far more fun
fun is wat we're going to be having at camp!
camp is being used way to much already in my vocab
vocabulary can be taken from the dictionary
dictionarys are hardly used by me
me as in I as in me and I
i think ur stupid (hahha)
stupid is another word for erin
erin is from Australia and is also the name of my friends sister
sisters are wat people have i have one whose 23
23 was offically 7 years ago for me but unofficially I will be in 3 years time
time is different in every country
countries where we all are placed
country is were my camp is
is anyones arm getting sore
tyring happens wen ur on here all the time looking at the comp screen
screens r fun 2 look at and now im going out and im sad
sad is what I have been today
today is bad since erin has left smudge is sad and I'm at work!
work must be slow or boring if you can be in forums
forums are fun to be in wen u meet all new diff ppl!
btw yes work is slow and boring lol
boring work sucks - what kind of work do you do?
banks, tyra...anyone like her show?
shows are fun especially sex n the city!! (btw yes seen her show and no i dont like it lol)
city life might be fun...but for now i'll stick to camp!!
camp is going to be AWESOME but i can't wait to travel!
travel would be fun, but i must get out of this house first!
first camp and then travel
first is like number 1
and the first thing i want to do wen i wake up is go back to sleep!
sleep is necessary but not an option as a junior in high school. growl.
growling is wat my cat does wen another cat comes to our house or well he whimpers away lol
lol is what i do a lot on these boards!
boards is something you can play on like checkers
checkers is a game I haven't played in years!
years is wat waiting for camp feels like
liking the fact that time is ticking away!
like to be at camp now but have to wait until June
away is where i'll be when i'm in america!
away to camp I will fly on June 11th
weeks better fly by, summer better arrive fast!
fast time will fly while on camp - but slowly it seems to be going by at the moment
moments seem to linger when i look at the clock.
clock is slow wen i want to go home!
home is camp! always and forever!
forever is wat its feeling like for camp to come
come one, clock, tick faster! better yet, fast forward to camp!
days are getting lighter! yay for spring time!
time is just another object of our lives
lives are what you make them.
them things that you dont know wat u mean
mean what you say, say what you mean.
mean is something a bully can be
be yourself, no matter what.
what is a question waiting to be answered
answered is something that happens to a question when someone responds to it
it seems like this can go on forever
forever is how long i would like to be at camp
camp is a whole lot of new friendships waiting to happen!
happen to know when my flights are by any chance?
chance is something that happens by fate
fate is something that i dont believe in
in can be a type of fashion or music
first of all i am back now.
now i am even closer to camp than i was the last time I posted!
posted is my application. I sent it in a while ago.
ago is a hard word to start a sentance with but DAYS isn't - Days left until camp is 76 (nearly 75)
nearly 75, wow!! I've got 83 left to go.
go and have fun while preparing for camp
camp is going to be a time in my lyf where sleep will be an issue lol
lol is commonly used when talking about buying rubber chickens
chickens are something that people eat
alive is what im going to be at camp!
camp is gonna be soooooo much fun!
days are going slower, it seems.
thats true.
but i got a cash passport yesterda and loaded it with american money so very exciting

smells of camp make me feel at home
am i a camp lover or what?
what you love camp i would have never figured
figured that you might too
too much money is coming out of my pay for my trip
alot of money is coming out of my pocket and not enough in my savings!
savings ha my savings are all going to go
go go go as all ive been doing lately
lately i do nothing but work and wait for camp
camp should come a little faster and more money should come in my pocket!
pockets i have none in my work outfit
outfits for camp can be really out there!
there is so many days till camp but tomorrow will be 50!
50 days to camp is 22 less than I have
soon i will be going to bed!
bed is what i just got out of.
of course you did or you wouldnt be heading for breakkie
weetabix is a cereal I dont like
like a few people here, i am in love with camp cedarledge!
cedarledge is a place i've never been before
before i can go to camp I need to get my visa
visa interviews are still going on and i've already had mine!
visa, american express, mastercard, all things we should never use, lol, but always do cause we are camp counselors and make pennies a day:):):):)
day is wat it will be on the 20th may till i leave for camp!
before i go i have to remember to by plug hole adapter things
things like that can be bough cheaply in the USA - for things like hair dryers I totally suggest waiting and just buying a cheap one from Walmart
walmart- iom so excited to go to it lol
lol is a commonly used way to express that you find something funny!
funny thing might make me laugh uncontrollably
uncontrolable yearning to be at camp right now is what I am currently experiencing!
experiencing camp is yet to be done!
done is today so i am closer
closer to camp, the happier i become!
become very tired after a long journey!
journeys to camp make me excited!
excited is the emotion im feeling
feeling is lost until camp comes!
away from school i want to go!
FRI - do you mean friday? it already is
is not Fri in the US. what time is it over in Austraila?
australias time in sydney is 10:14am friday
r u excited to go to the US?
Camp is where I wanna be!!
be ready for lots of fun this summer
summer memories last longer than a lifetime
lifetime without camp would be very sad!
Is there anyone going to Camp Horizons this summer??
sad are people who don't like camp!
camp is definate now that I have a Visa or will have when my passport arrives
arrives in america on the 27th
27th june is when my pre-camp ends
ends is just another word for a new beginning
beginning to want to sleep
sleep is over rated at camp!
camp is where I wanna be right now
computers can be really annoying
annoyig kids are worthwhile when they look up and say how cool you are and how they want to see you again!
again and again and over and over is how many times i want to go to camp!
camp has given me some of the best experiences of my life
life feels like the time ticking by
by golly!! I hope I get my visa tomorrow!!!
tommorow is a bright shining day with no mistakes!
mistakes happen hopefully not really bad ones
one summer can always make a difference
Difference is what makes life interesting.
Interesting is what every summer at camp is
night sounds make me happy
happy is what i will be when I finally get my flight details!
details are important right now while i do homework.
homework i havent had that for 5 months so great
great grades on chem tests make me happy!
happy am I that my passport and visa have arrived
arrived at camp, i knew that i would come back again and again when i stepped on Cedarledge soil!
soil is what australia lacks of
of mice and men is a book set in america
america is home for many cool camps!
camps are the best place to spend the summer cause they totally rock!!
rock wall is something I have never climbed
climbing the hill, i encourage my friends
friends made at camp last a lifetime
lifetime of waiting till camp
camp is where memories and friendships are made
made by the camper, the camper proudly boasted their artwork to their parents
parents shouldnt be allowed to spend too much time at camp!
family dont understand why I love camp sooo very much
much planning goes on before camp
camp america is who i am going to camp through!
through the years, my love for camp has grown
grown in wisdom and experience cos of camp
happy that camp is soon, and my plane trip im excited for my little tv.
tv is not something we watch at camp- we watch campers!
campers love fun counselors
counselors should try to be the best they can
camp - i most definately do love it!
It is one of the best experiences of your life.
life should be full of amazing experiences not regrets
Regrets can often cause worries.
worried? Realize life is too short, and the only thing that will help is to be proactive! (Wow, i sound like a poster!:D)
proactive is a very good way to be at camp
camp makes me happy inside!
excited campers line up at the gates waiting to begin this year's camp experience
experience as much as possible during your life
life is neveer to be taken for granted.
granted many people do though
though life can go fast, make sure you take time to slow things down!
down by the water sitting on the rocks is my fav spot on camp!
camp makes me realize how amazing God is when i look at his artwork.
artwork of God certainly is amazing in its awesomeness
awesomness surounds me at camp!
camp is not too far away!
away to camp i will be in only 51 days
its soemthing like 39 for me!
me, myself and I love camp
camp is where I will be heading in only 50 days!!!!!!!!!
days go by quickly during camp!
be by the action when the fun happens
happens that i will be at camp in less than 50 days
58 days to camp was how many days i had 10 days ago!
ago, long, i was a wee little camper.
Camper stories always make me laugh.
- Teenster
campers are what makes camp, camp
adictive? no, I think not!
not at all, camp could never be addictive, ah who are we kidding, it totally is
is we addicted to camp? yeah, I suppose so!
so we have come to the conclusion we are addicted to camp then?
then, I guess that is our conclusion.
are we all ready for camp - i know i am
am too! (we are so horrible with our grammar! haha)
haha - that we are - but who cares when talking about camp
camp makes the world go 'round!
round about now our thoughts turn to packing
packing is fun and stressful at the same time!
Time flys when we are having fun at camp
camp is certainly the place to be - and this lovely sunny weather puts me in the mood to be there now
now I would be finishing cleaning with my kids and getting ready for our morning activities
activities at camp include archery and camp craft skills
then, yes we are so addicted some are suffering from denial.
denial, never!!
never say never!
never say never unless you mean it enough to say it twice (i.e. never never)
(sorry quoting from Stepmom now!)
Twice, the number of times I've been stung by a bee while at camp.
- Teenster
camp is where i will be when my guides go to Ayrwaves 08 - our local international camp where there will be guides and girl scouts from around the world!
World wide is where the counselors at my camp come from.
From staying at home bored all summer long, you gain nothing, but if you go to camp, you gain several new memories and experiences!
experiences are many at camp just like the friends you will make
make new friends but keep the old..
Experiences make camp fun.
- Teenster
does anyone feel like it is taking forever for camp to arrive?
Arrive already camp will you? Yes, I def. feel like that especially as it gets closer.
closer to camp is were i would love to live
live plants are cool! kinda like camp!
camp is 37 days away for me but much less for some people like Ermie who are lucky enough to be at camp now!
now I am back from my 24 hours at camp, sad that I am gone, but happy that I only have 47 days until i will be there again!
again and again and again i tell my friends the days left till camp!
camp is 37 days away for me - and 15 days after that one of my friends moves back to the USA from scotland!
scotland is a place that i would like to visit.
Visit Days at camp are always full of excitement.
excitment is generated by going to camp, visiting new places and doing new things - all of which i hope to do this summer
summer is getting oh so close!
close the door on school, open the door to a wonderful new summer!
summer is when i am at camp and having a wonderful time
time is not going fast enough through finals and AP exams!
exams are something I havent sat since 2006
2006 was two years ago! crazy that i was only a freshman then!
2006 was the summer I didn't work at camp.
- Teenster
Then, I was too busy moving...
(sorry didn't see the other post...)
- Teenster
moving is something i hope to do when i return from camp
camp is a thing few understand.
understand(ing) makes camp so much easier!
easier-spanish is so much easier after a while..
while that might be true I have never learnt spanish so wouldnt know
knowing German is what I am doing. I am going to minor in German.
German, interesting language, never took it cause I figured I wouldn't be going to Germany any time soon.
soon is what camp is starting to be!
be happy that camp is now so close
Close to home, camp isn't (usually), but close to the heart, camp is.
Is there anyway for me to be at camp all year round?
round the year my CD, PD, and outdoor ed director are at camp!
Camp is the reason we are all here, talking.
Talking about camp during the "non-summer" seasons makes it easier not being there, we still miss it, but we all miss it together.
togetherness makes it seem not as bad! Or at least we don't feel as alone in our camp-sickness!
camp-sickness is something i have suffered from really badly this year
soon it will be my b-day, school will be out, and camp!
camp birthdays are not something i have yet experienced - maybe next year i will
Will you share your experience with us if you do?
Do you think it would be great if we all had camp b-days, cause I think it would be wonderful.
wonderful - i totally agree - maybe we could change our birthdates the way you can change your name
Names at camp are not always changed.
changed - never - I will be Smudge forever!
Forever there will be a place for camp in my heart.
heart problems might make it harder to enjoy camp
(just to be ornery!)
here is where we are!
Are you serious??? That was laaaaaaame!
laaaaaaaaaame is what time without camp is!!
Heehee. You weren't supposed to keep all the a's there!
Is it camp time yet?????
yet I did because I felt like it and i think I added a few extra!! (sadly no it isn't camp time
)
Extra days at camp would be really nice!
nice is not what camp is- camp is amazing!!
Amazing is what camp is.
(You did it first, so now I get to!)
is this slightly imature of us? (payback is fairplay!)
Us- no. You- yes. I am never immature! (Muhahahaha! That wasn't a very good example, was it...?)
imature- you? not at all! (no it really wasn't a good example!)
All right, all right! I admit it! I AM IMMATURE!!!! There, you happy now?
now I am happy! We have both admitted to our imaturity!! and everyone who reads this later is really going to laugh at our imaturity and be annoyed with us for getting off topic on other threads and running with it!
it is exciting- camp is approaching!
aproaching the time when I need to be getting ready to leave - but still have 1 month!
months for me is 1 and 11 days!
days for me start 9 hours (I think) before they do for campkgurl
Campkgurl and I are immature.
(Sorry, I just HAD to say that... You know, because I'm immature like that. XD)
immaturity seems to be going around!!
around the world far too many children are being forced to grew up too early so bring on the immaturity!
Immaturity is very amusing at times... and very annoying at others.
others need to learn when to be silly/imature and when to be serious!
serious campfires are close at heart, but nothing beats the silly ones!
smudge loves her chicken, fred.
Fred is excited that camp is getting closer
going and going are the days!
days of our life are often found at camp
camp told me to get a medical and i did today
Me has way more than that... Me JEALOUS. Grr...
Grrrr is how i feel when i see people already heading off to camp!
Camp starts in a few weeks.
- Teenster
Weeks, months, what's the difference?
HUGE, that's what it is!
Is it really true that camp is still 30 days way?
away we will go to camp whenever it comes!
me, i find out where and when i go next week...finally!
finally- very true! I am glad I knew a long time ago (like 6 years ago, but that's besides the point!) I remember the weeks when I didn't know!!
know how to create new memories? Go to camp
me, myself, and I, love camp!
Camp is the place where I love to be.
be your self and you will have wonderful time at camp
Camp clothing is the best.
best definately - especially for making those around you jealous that you get to spend your summers in a different country!
Countries are several when it comes to where people go to camp from... (I'm sorry if it didn't make much sense...)
from east to west. g.s is the best!
best that you can be is what we are all striving for
For camp is the reason I will agree to do things I wouldn't usually do.
Doing things you wouldn't usually do is one of the best parts.
parts of me never want to leave...actually all parts of me never want to leave!
Leaving camp is always sad.
sad is how i feel when i have to leave camp toooo
Too much time before we get to camp.
- Teenster
camp for me in 20 days but who is counting
counting - i most definately am - although not at the point of counting the hours yet!
Yet, I will most definitely be happy when my time until I leave camp is so short that I'll be able to start counting hours.
hours until camp are too many to camp
camp gets closer every day!
day time is when we need to be awake at camp
camp is soon! only 15 days till pre-camp!
pre-camp will start a week after I arrive at camp
weeks number just under 4 for me until i get to chenoa
Woooooooooooo??????
Chenoa is a Girl Scout camp that Smudge works at.
At school... I would rather be somewhere else.
- Teenster
elsewhere, summer feel weird. i belong at camp!
camp is were I love to be
be a champ, go to camp! (started out as "be cool stay in school", but you can't have that on a camp message board!! and i am pretty much sick of school right now! less than a month til I am home!!)
home is were I am at the moment
moments go by too slowly at home/school and to quickly at the place we all long to be!!
be happy and make the most of every moment
moments like these make me groan and then giggle (where we go back and forth between words, intentionallly or unintentionally!)
unintentially is always what it is with me
me and campluver were being immature and doing that intentionally though!
me am distracting myself! Go ahead and keep posting if you want Smudge! I dug my own hole! (how's that for a new word to continue the train with!! We almost always end up on "camp" or "be" or "fun" or a few other words!)
hole was dug by my CIT and other in 02 and the got caught by the Director - they were supposed to be helping build a canteena (another diffferent word!)
canteenas are what exactly? (and that is a different word!! We should try to see if we can stay away from the most common words, like "camp"!!!)
[sorry about my 'wooo' post, i forgot i was in word train!]
exactly how long until we get to go home?
home is not usually on site! (as in living at camp year round)
(that's alright about the woo post, I understand! Sometimes I do it the opposite way and think about posting a word train in another thread!)
(I have done that campkgurl)
site for a camping trip should be flat and above the level of the local water source to avoid getting flooded
flood watch is in effect this weekend for me because of the snow melting
melting is what happens to m and m's at camp! sad panda
panadas dont often go to camp however other bears might
might you be flying out soon smudge? what is the latest count?
count for me is 25 days - well 24 1/2 days to be precise!
Precisely, I feel like camp can't come soon enough.
enough of waiting - i wanna be there now!
now, i am happy because camp is coming soon!
enough with the waiting!!
waiting is not something i am good at!
at camp, it doesn't matter what your role at school is: geek, jock, band nerd, drama, popular, loner, it doesn't matter!
matter - all that matters at camp is that you are there for the right reasons
reasons like love of camp and love of kids!
kids are the whole reason for being a counsellor
counselor duties start in just a bit!
bit of humour goes a long way when waiting for June 11th
11th of June is 10 days before I leave
leave your halter tops at home, kids.
kids are why we do what we do!
(hehehe, nice one CIL!!!)
do we love camp - why yes we do
Do you think that non-camp people will ever see how wonderful it really is?
Is there really any question about how wonderful camp is
is to people who have never been! (does that even make any sense without the word there in front?!?!)
been to camp for 5 summers now - this will be my 6th!
(it doesnt mater we know what you mean!)
6th summer of mine I was a DCA!
DCA is not a position that we have at my camp
Camp seems empty without anyone else here!
here in scotland smudge is preparing to leave for camp but she has to patiently wait for 20 more days!
days until camp need to fly- i want finals to end!
end is in sight cedar trees
trees better be ready for some flash flood gaming action!
action - it is all action at camp
camp is looking beautiful in the late afternoon sun today!
today I did missionary work - cos the missionaries are making the most of the fact that I am only gonna be about for another 2 weeks
weeks have flown by since i started thinking about packing...now k must pack fast!
fast is how the time is going by now - when we started the count down thread it was crawling by
by(e) bye bye!
off i go to camp soon!
soon there will be fewer people on here cos CIL and all the cedar ledgers will be off to camp
camp does mean no ACA boards. how sad. ):
sad but not at the same time cos these are only a subsitute for the real thing
thing I will be experiencing in 25 days!
days till camp for Smudge is 15
15-2=days until our first campers arrive!
arrive at camp after 15 - 16 hours of traveling by taxi, train, bus, 2 planes and white van
(well done CIL! i though that would be difficult to follow on!)
shoes are essential at camp
camp is quite soon for Hiccup!
Hiccup is a funny camp name.
- Teenster
name of me is hiccup only because i had them for a week straight during training last year.
year since I was last preparing to head to camp and now it is that time again - boy the time has flown
flown the coop i will have done by friday!
Friday i am planning to go swimming to prepare for my life guarding course
course of action for hiccup!: get packed and ready to go ASAP.
ASAP - that means you shouldnt be on here procrastinating
procrastinating is what i do best, though!!
though you will be regretting it when you are still packing 10 mins before you need to leave
leave soon do i, but i'll be ready!
ready is what you are when all your bags are packed and you are sitting there singing "all my bags are packed I'm ready to go...!"
home is where the heart is
is a whole conversation- that's what this is!
is it time for sleep yet? i'm tired.
tired i am not at the moment
moments are slipping away...
away to camp i fly in 2 weeks
weeks until i got to new york: 4.14
4.14 is not pi! Pi is rounded to 3.14!
3.14 being pi is something I havent had to think about since I left high school in 1995 - which was prob before CIL even started school - man that makes me feel old!
old is something that I rarely feel
(I was in 1st and 2nd grade in 1995! I finished 5th grade in 2000!)
Feel the wind blowing through the trees on a beautiful June morning.
morning swims this summer are gonna be fun
fun times for you all...but i must say that i was in school in 1994 thank you very much...
much apologies CIL! My mistake!
Ok then - it is all good cos we learn from our mistakes.
I am REALLY REALLY EXCITED ABOUT CAMP for some reason tonight
tonight is definitely a time when you are really excited! (wow, Smudge, you really are excited!! me too, though apparently not as excited as you are!)
excited! did it show! Going swimming tomorrow to practice for lifeguarding swim test!
tests are over! now i'm off to camp! i leave in 1.5 hours, wish me luck!!
Luck to Cil, good luck at that, and also to everyone who is heading to camp this weekend!
weekend is a busy time for everyone heading off to camp, so good luck to all!
all who are heading for camp this weekend are really lucky
lucky is definitely right!
right now I am sore from swimming lots and lots today
today it is good that you went swimming, yay!
yay - need to go again next week but discovered and i get a discount cos I am not working - yet!
yet you would have gone even if you didn't get a discount. (woohoo for discounts!! and that one was kind of difficult to do!)
discounts rule the world - why pay full price when you can get discounts
discounts are wonderful, especially since everything has become so expensive here.
here in the UK everything is even more expensive than in the USA - except for Dr Martins which are cheaper here.
here today I think there is a rather large thunderstorm brewing!
brewing of tea or coffee is the only brewing that is allowed at camp
camp is where I am right now!
now I have just over 10 days until i get to camp
camp is over-run this weekend with Girl Scouts!!
Scouts - Girl Scouts will be invading Chenoa on Sunday too - but i am not a girl scout I am a Girl Guide
Guides are similar to Girl Scouts, not sure which I prefer?
prefer whatever makes you happy
Happy dance time, camp is so close now, just 19 days to go!!
Going to enjoy the sun when is shines - cos it doesnt happen often here!
rainy here too since mid afternoon!
afternoon here now and the sun is so hot!!!
hot is what it was this morning and yesterday - now it is just wet and my arm hurts and I dont think I have done anything to hurt it!
it is now sunny here and the ground is now dry
dry is what my swim-wear is but will be wet again!
Again and again I will be packing until it's right.
right will prob will take about 6 or 7 attempts on my behalf to get everything in!
in my mind i am having a dance party because camp is so close!
close to going to bed is what i am right now!
now what time is it over there! (and goodnight!)
there being here it is 11pm and thanks - gonna be on for a bit longer
longer the days seem as camp comes closer
closer to my heart than camp there is nothing - excepter perhaps my faith and chocolate
Chocolate makes a smore, well a smore!
Smores are one of the best things about camp
camp is a privelidge, unfortunately some can't go
go-ing to camp is something which all children should be able to expereince
experiencing camp is a marvelous character building growth.
growth is something that you do alot of you work at camp
now I have just over a week until i leave for camp and i have so much to do and still i am sat here posting!
it is started - but it I mean my packing!
packing is almost completed!
completed? I haven't even begun.
begun? you don't need to worry unless your leave tommorow!
tomorrow (being Monday!) I will still have a 1 day until I leave!
leave tomorrow I don't so I guess I'm safe for now.
now i am incredibly excited!
excited does not begin to describe what I will be when I get to camp!! I fit the description (not quite literally, but it is pretty intense!) "bouncing off the walls!"
walls of platform tents are the best kind to bounce off of cos you cant hurt yourself!
yourself and i should write to eachother.
each other will definately be writing to each other
other than my extreme tiredness, summer is great!
great fun was going white water rafting
Rafting on white water is an enjoyable camp activity.
activity that i hope my girls like: pop-tab bracelets!
Bracelets are fun to make!
make things is what i did at camp all summer, miss it tons now!!!:(
