10 days

Today marks 10 days until I get on a plane and go home. I'm so excited, but it's hard for me to imagine going back to normal life after being at camp for so long.

This session (the 3rd session) started out in an unexpected way. I had asked to be in the gigabyte unit again, because the unit head is amazing, and also because I like the age range of the kids. The co-counselor I have had for the past month has been awesome, but I wouldn't have been mad if I would have had to change within the gigabyte unit. However, instead, they put me in the megabyte unit with another counselor who had been in the gigabyte unit during 1st session. It was a bit of a shock because it was pretty much the exact opposite of what I had asked for.

So far, my workshops are great, my co is great, and most of the mega counselors aren't horrible. Basically, I don't love the unit, but I also don't completely hate it either.

So, even though I shouldn't be, I'm counting down the days until I get to go home. I'm going to miss all of the staff, but I'm ready to go back to being a normal human being and having a job where I don't work for 18 hours a day. This job has been teaching me so much, but I don't think I could ever do anything like this on a regular basis because I really takes so much out of me.
