| I'm procrastinating.
This is rediculous.......ohman.
I'm so thankful for stuff right now.
Conversations. with friends. [okay. people who I normally just say "HEY how are you?" to]
knowing God put every single person in my life for a reason.
letting go. not letting go...just moving on, I guess.....
so. this post was basically to say
expectations. are a stinker.
"2.the act or state of looking forward or anticipating." [dictionary.com]
i guess this is just a reminder for me......................

This is me seriously missing camp.....
ok.
here's to that.
This summer was the most amazing summer of my life. I've met so many new people. Even those kinds of friends that you're going to be friends with forever...or for at least right now. The kids I met changed my life more than anything too.....every day I heard "nature jenn, look what I caught for you!" and every time that happened, I can't even explain what happiness it brought to my heart.
At the beginning of the summer, i thought that i was in wayyyyy over my head. A few friends in the beginning gave me just the right encouraging words that I needed. Nature was in itself a totally new thing. Lizard week went down in HISTORY.. not even kidding. But seriously, if it weren't for a major prayer life, and those few encouraging words at the exact perfect time, I don't think the summer could have been what it was.
Being a cabin counselor was overwhelming too. Don't get me wrong, it was great! The first week was probably one of the most stressful weeks at camp, I was practically a deer in headlights, but eventually, I got the hang of it and for all 10 weeks had a blast getting to know girls deeper than normal, and learning about their hopes, dreams, and backgrounds. I pray for each camper every day and that they remember their time at camp.
One of the best things I've learned this summer is to become more confident in myself. I know why I choose and say the things I do. I don't have to apologize to anyone for not letting them use my car or even saying that I didn't want to hang out with them...the staff this summer taught me how to love people as siblings in Christ. The way that we can go from completely rediculous to completely serious is amazing and I hope that we can continue to build those relationships as we journey life's path.
This summer created a part in my heart that I never knew existed....and that's my love for kids. I just love them. so much. guh, I can't even put into words how much this summer meant to me and how much of an impact it had on me. I'm going to miss it real good.
so, to my fellow staff members that might read this, thanks for helping to change my life. It was an honor, pleasure, and blast working with you and I never will forget this summer.
well, I hope this made sense, being as I'm the MOST awkward worder-blogger thing...but I'm kind of like that in person..lol
anyways.

| So I've decided that I like camp alot.
But I've also decided that I do miss friends from Grace and the routine from there too.
I've been learning so much. Seriously. Good stuff too.
I had a few tragedies in the nature center this week,
but this week was Lizard week and we caught a TON and learned about them too!!!
haha. Seriously, if I don't have your number, send it.
If you want to send me a letter, that'd be cool too.
read the addy.
leave love. for serious.

| Camp=Awesome. The other night I shared a verse with my girls that totally made me feel like I had fulfilled my purpose at this camp. "No temptation has seized you, except what is common to man, and God is faithful,but when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out, so that you can stand up under it." - 2 Corinthians 10:13 no matter what their situation, age, life, whatev. God IS faithful. Thanks for that, And, ROOMATE, SUITEMATES, you'll be INTERESTED to find out that my cabin was ONE of the THREE cleanest cabins here at camp!!!!!!! YAY! I was so proud of my girls..but anyways. I LOST MY CELL PHONE THOUGH!!!!! CALL ME WITH YOUR NUMBERS!!!!!! OR TEXT ME! OR EMAIL ME! OR COMMENT ME!!!!! I HAVE NO ONES NUMBER !!!!!!! | | |
