I am completely amazed at the lack of paper cuts I got this week. Youth camp starts next week, and after that all the other camps so the whole team has been going crazy preparing for it. My main part in all of this is to get together all the registration forms, organized alphabetically and by age, and to put together welcome packets for the churches. In the next two weeks we have 25 different church coming here, and a good lot of them have no idea how to get around this town, where and what to eat, or where to get supplies so I'm making a lovely list of everything they might need and where to find it. This then needs to go into folders which means I've lots and lots of fun with the hole-puncher, lots and LOTS. It's not so bad really, and I do like monotonous tasks where I can actually see my progress, but I do wish for something to stimulate my mind a little more. I miss the BSC library, and half the time I'm working, I'm wondering what to do with that place. If anyone who talks to Dr. G reads this, you can let him know I'm considering throwing the card catalogue desk out the window, scrapping the whole system, and starting over. The books are in too much disarray to really be organized properly while still being a running library. Anyway, not what this blog is about. So we went to Lake View yesterday and played with the kiddies. It was my turn, my first one, to run the crafts and I do believe that my call in life does not involve such things. We tried to make American flags since Independence day is coming up, but not all the children understood the idea of a flag and just ended up making whatever. I dont really care if they make the craft or not, but when the try to put glue in people hair, thats a problem. Just kidding, no one actually did that, but for awhile there I was wondering if they would. The bus broke down last weekend, and we didnt have any tables, so we had to crowd all the children into an area on the sidewalk and it was hard to watch all of them at once so if anything bad happened, I didnt see it and no one told me. I got sticks for them to put their flags on, and one of the little boys asked me to put it on for him, and I glued it upside down. I felt so bad when I realized! He, of course, couldnt care less, his flag was blue after all.
Entertained Amy:
So I had a bunch of stuff planned out for this one, but I dont remember much right now. We went grocery shopping last night and the other intern I went with is always shocked that I buy and eat raw vegetables. How else am I going to eat them? Cooking is too much work when I only have a short time to eat. Anyway, I also got some pocky, which I havent had in years and it made me so happy. I forgot I love that stuff, but no longer! Pocky reigns! Oh! And! I might be in charge of the library group in the next couple of weeks! YES!
