So, I am a crew member for the YMCA Camp Ernst. I will do janitorial work for free in exchange for free room and board from the dates of June 12 until July 2nd.
I did this so I'd have the chance to bump elbows with interesting people and foreign people for 3 weeks.
I did this so I'd have an escape from my house for the summer.
I did not do this to be surrounded by obnoxious, rich, spoiled Cincinnati brats who are only here for their oh so important community service hours. I did not do this to be stuck on the outside of a BFF community. I did not do this to be the poor hillbilly girl.
I am not a hillbilly. Yes, I mow the lawn. I have no servants, I will work minimum wage jobs to get through college.
At least I'm going to college on merit and not on my dad's money.
I was at the orientation today. The 4 people who didn't make me ill to my stomach, the attractive kid named Nate who skipped a grade and remembered my name, the friendly Twins, the skinny blonde girl named Emily... All of them are in different sessions. I won't see them.
Its only May 15th. So I have a little less than a month to get together books and music and stuff to do in my down time to avoid these... People? Spoiled, nasty, preppy brats? My fellow Crewmembers and future best friends?
Not likely.
I hope the foreigners are nice. Because I don't think its a good idea to commit suicide while volunteering at a christian camp.
