| Cookie4Nat: hey Auto response from Horseeyoregal: bored...and lonesome...pauvre moi. je voudrais un petit ami!! waahhhh!!! Cookie4Nat: awww ur bored and loenly? poor u? u want a bf?????? Cookie4Nat: hehe how cute Cookie4Nat: i hope im reding french corretly Cookie4Nat: haha Cookie4Nat signed off at 1:49:04 PM. right...cute... just like when he told me about his dream last night where his girlfriend turned lesbian and was dating none other than ME. and then he went on to say how cute it was and how much it turned him on...and the he wouldn't really MIND if his girlfriend was bi and dating me at the same time. WOAH THERE. (and that is how i get in trouble for posting things that i shouldn't in my journal. i find this really hilarious.) so. i've been thinking. (as i always seem to be.) and i've realized...i miss it. i REALLY miss it. i miss EVERYTHING that had to do with it. and i want it back. NOW. but...that's not something that i alone can make happen. and it won't happen. so i'll just sigh now. *sigh* but ummmm...yeah. i just really, really miss it. i can't say anything like 'i never really realized how much i cared about it until it was gone' because that's not true. i DID realize how much i cared for it during it all. am i a dependent person? i didn't think i was. maybe i am...but for some reason i doubt that. i think i just VALUE dependence. i enjoy it more than i realize. and as much as i'm always bitching about not having enough independence, maybe if i got what i wanted...i wouldn't be so happy. but enough of confusing ramblings. now on to BIG NEWS. (well, in fact, it's not really all that NEW. because i thought about it yesterday. but yeah.) so. here's my SUPER DUPER COOL PLAN!! are you excited? you should be. really, you should. so, i go to this camp every summer, right? camp unique. (and no, sara, it's not for mentally disabled people, it just has a funky name. lol!) this will be my second summer in a leadership role, as a CILT (Camper In Leadership Training.) once a teen is chosen to be a CILT, (the camp directors choose, it's not an application thing, you just are one or you aren't) s/he is given leadership...ummm...things to do. (besides a nice 10% discount from camp...hehe) among these are helping with the sports classes, running the snack bar, and generally getting to know the campers so that if there is a problem, it can be brought up with the staff at staff meetings. once one becomes older, (like, junior/senior) it is imperative to start to specialize in one of the activities (like, ali, for example, co-taught a dancce class last year, and nicole would probably teach a drama class) and eventually, (hopefully) become a councilor and take over the activity fully. my thought: what would i teach? dance, ehhh, i'm no alison. drama? ehhh, it's really more nicole's thing, and i hardly do shows anymore anyway. horseback riding? i would if i could, but it's all run at springdown. and i'm certainly content to be the best rider out there and get to ride in the jumping classes with the regular students. so....thinking of myself, what do i do? MUSIC!! that's what i do. and specifically what? singing and band. what kind of band? MARCHING BAND!! (i haven't really explored the singing idea yet...but a camp unique chorus?? could be painful.) so, with LOTS of parental support, i have decided to bring it up to the camp councilors/directors this year. what, exactly, am i proposing?? A MARCHING BAND CLASS, THAT'S WHAT!!! now, i have actually seriously considered this. the MAIN problem: no one will want to do it. but hey, little kids sign up for yoga every year, why not band?? besides, band is GREAT! another obvious problem: skill level on their instrument. but wait...this is no concert band. this is MARCHING BAND. which is an activity that...when given one or two weeks and a group of 7-11 year olds, may take a while to learn in itself, even if i just taught basics. but think about it, how cute would that be? and i'm so completely obsessed with the idea that i'm sure the kids would just LOVE it. i mean, if i was 7-11, i would want to do it! i could find videos of really good bands, get them all excited....i mean, it's a cool thing, when you think about it! a lot of people working together to make pictures on a field while making music! if there was interest and i was seriously given permission, i'd put SO much work into it. i'd find really, REALLY simple songs to work on, give the better instrumentalists solos or something, and we'd play a little standstill show. then we could do a drilldown. the parents would get a kick out of it!! and they'd all be so excited and proud of themselves!! it would be very cool. VERY cool. |
