Urg...I think I am ready to be done!
I don't know if it's the cute, yet rambunctios, blonde girl who was blowing bubbles with her saliva and encouraging the rest of the class to follow suit; Or if it was trying to teach sign language while the kids had excess drool running down their faces after making their saliva bubbles; Or if it was telling the kids a gazillion times to get off the table...or the chairs; Or if it was when (on more than one ocassion) the kids thought it would be funny to kick their flip flop or croc up in the air in the middle of my lesson and miss my head by about a half of an inch; Or maybe it was all these high squeeling voices talking at the same time...my throat hurts from trying to talk over them. I don't know what it is...can't put my finger on it...but I am ready to be done. Two more days...praise the good lord because my patience is running out real quick. It's hard...because it's a camp...I can't yell at them for being silly and having fun. Half these kids are camped out...their parents just move them from camp to camp...I can totally see the difference in the behavior of the kids in the first session to the behavior of the kids in the third session. Tomorrow should be better...my aunt is going to come in to my classes...that should scare them into behaving for the last two days! Yippee!

My Most Recent Travels
I went to visit Joel for the 4th of July weekend. I wasn't supposed to see him until two weeks after that but we both were missing each other a super lot. We decided to search for last minute tickets. We finally found a good deal to New Orleans, which is only an hour and a half drive from Joel's house. We went to the Aqaurium of the Americas, the Imax, the zoo, Bourbon Street, and lots of cool restaurants. New Orleans is such a cool city. If you ever have the opportunity to go...I say go for it. We had a great time and it wasn't as raunchy as I thought it would be!

I am an Idiot with a capitol I...
I had a horrible headache. So after work I popped a few aspirin, went to the porch, and layed on the hammock. I left the back door open. My aunt came out for a smoke and told me that she would be out, but would come back around 5pm. I must have fallen into a deep sleep because I didn't hear her leave or anything. I had this intense sensation to go to the bathroom so I woke up half dazed and went to go inside. I noticed the door was closed.."oh sh**" I thought...I went to turn the knob and realized that the door was in fact locked. I remembered my aunt telling me that if I ever got locked out that I should climb through the bathroom window. So I immediately tried to slide open the window. I pushed and pushed and it wouldn't budge...it "must have been locked" I thought to myself. I circled the house checking every window while the neighbors were watching me like I was nuts. Meanwhile keep in mind I still had to pee hard core. So, I am super frustated and I finally came to terms with the fact that I would not be getting into the house. So I peed under the porch. I girls gotta do what a girls gotta do.
So I figured I would just chill til my aunt got home. I had no clue what time it was. I didn't have my cell phone or my wallet or anything. I knew my aunt went to work at her office. After what felt like an hour of waiting I decided to go to her office. I saw a brochure that listed the address of where she worked. At this point I was starving. So there I am shlepping up and down looking for her office. After going up and down the street with no luck I decided to head back to the house..."surely she would be home by now" I thought. So I get back home...and still she wasn't there. I was so hungry and I had to pee again and I was beyond frustrated so I go again to the bathroom window (which I tried to open at least five times prior to this) and with all my might I slid the window over. FINALLY I was in! I looked on the window....there isn't even a lock on it. I am an idiot. I was convinced that it was locked because I couldn't get it open...it was just stuck a little. I looked at the clock...it was 6:30. I had waited for at least two hours and the flippin window was open (unlocked...didn't even have a lock no less) the entire time! This is why I am an Idiot with a capitol I!
