Summer Camp 2008

hey welcome all tell me about what eveyones doing for camp... explain everyone

What Im doing for camp?
I'm being a general counsellor nothing too exciting!
but i'm really excited about meeting new people

I'm a swimming counselor! It's going to be mad fun!

I am a relief counsellor so I help other staff memebers, cover their breaks, take over a cabin if someone is sick and help look after the directors 7 month old as well

ooooo mel that sounds interesting!
how'd u get that did u apply for a general counsellor role or was that the role they pikd for u?

Yeah that sounds way interesting Mel! You get to do heaps of stuff and I asume you'd get plenty of time off!

The cmap director emailed me and told me about the position and told me if I was interested in the camp and the role to email her back.

I get about 2 hours a day off plus days off between sessions. I think nearly everyone has 2 hours off and between sessions off. Between sessions it is anywhere between 24 hours and 3 days off

thats the same as me!
wow you must get real busy then!
wat made u take the role?

i love babies.

im a cabin counsellor of the youngest age group and i get to go around to all activities and shiz and if i wanna help lead something i can

I thought the role would be interesting and I get to go to all of the age groups.

i'd like to do all age groups see what they're all like

i'm a 'music specialist' at camp , they havent defined it 100% but as far as i know i'm teaching music to all ages, teaching drama, accompaning a little on piano (it better be a little lol i'm not particuarly comfortable accompaning i'd rather be singing with them haha) and also auditioning and running musicals/plays with the rest of performing arts team (theres about 5 of us i think?) But yeah nervous but very excited

mel ur going to have SO much fun!!!! 7 month old wowwwwww lol, he'll just have learnt to sit up by himself and will probably be babbling instead of cooing! man wat a lovely age to work with, seriously lol. the 6 month old girl i look after is beautiful. you'll have heaps of fun!

i hate composition!
if you had to write ur own music that would suk!

gosh i hope not lol. i've done up to gr 6 ameb theory but it made me hate writing even more lol. i guess i can teach a basic chord progression for song writing but if i have to help everyone compose a song it will be interesting lol.

hahah imagine if u were that piano person wen they have skits and shiz hahha funny!
i memba doing composition in my exams it sukd ass and altho i passd it use to spend frikn ages on them!
