It has been so much fun to work up at Aspen Ridge. I end up going to bed at about 10:30 to 11:00 at night and waking up at 6:00 in the morning. I have actually gotten a pretty good tan from helping down at waterfront during free time but to all the guys that work on waterfront I'm still pretty white.
This week was Girl's Week up at Aspen Ridge and I was helping at C.O.P.E. course on Wednesday, and that’s just some games the troops play by themselves to help them work together, when I was leading a girl's group through it we were at a game where there is a huge pole and the girls had to put a tire on it. Three of the girls decided to lift this other girl up to see if she could put the tire on. Well, when they had lifted her up she started laughing so hard that she peed her pants on the other three girls. It was so funny. I tried so hard not to laugh and I am happy to say that I succeeded in not laughing.
I also decided that I hate girl's weeks. They are all so annoying and the comments they leave on the evaluating papers are so frustrating. They complained about the mosquitoes, how there was no cell phone service, how when they went to ride the horses the wranglers (people in charge of the horses) didn’t explain how to ride the horses very good but I know for sure they did because I’ve heard how they explained it and I think it was just the girls not listening, and they wanted us to knock everything down, flatten it because its pretty much all a hill, and build everything closer together. I think that if they didn’t have anything good to complain about they made up something. But besides that it was all extremely fun.
We were all bored last Saturday night so we got some hair dye and dyed my hair and a couple other kids' hair lighter and colored my bangs pink with marker. When my dad saw the pink he threatened to shave it off if it didn't come out soon.
Well that's about all.
I hope you all have a great 4th of July.
Love ya,
