Sorry about the cut off audio....its hard with a no cell rule. I saw one of the adults and had to hang up! lol
Well it was rather interesting, I guess. Especially since I did NOT want to come back this year at all! lol Taking a year off with INW sorta made me not want to go back. Standing duty was alright. (Duty-equals two and a half hours of standing outside greeting visitors and other weird jobs such as cleaning the cannon and stamping tickets) Some days it rained and some days the sun shone so bright you couldn't even see. Flags sucked in teh beginning of the week. I was Canadian on Avenue and so all the flags go up and down at the same time. We had to practice so much! (Flags- each girl and her flag partner each have a flag to lower and raise, its sorta hard to do! lol)
I worked in the Governor's Mansion on Wednesday. It has a lot of rooms. But I did see a box of Corona! (Shame on you Jennifer Graholm!!!) We helped with the tours of her house. We had two busy days! Augh! (Busy Days-a day when your patrol can NOT leave the barraacks at all, all day. You have kapers to do and they have to be done by like 10:15. We cook all the meals for the day and do a service project. We had to sweep like 13 flights of steps on this one trail.)
So this isn't your typical Girl Scout camp, oh no, its a lot of work and energy. Well it is a service camp so its supposed to be strict, I guess. One of our biggest rules is not to fratinize (whoa spelling) with the male fortstaff. (AKA the soldiers of the fort) Of course I find the only loop hole! lol Well on my busy day, at fortstaff night I was the 'hopper' (you serve your table and get whatever they need) All of the soldiers come to our barracks for dinner. There were like three at my table. They weren't the best that we have had so I just ate and didn't talk very much. Well the next day my duty was in the fort. One of the soldiers (who had been at my table) came up and asked if I was majoring in History at MSU (I am...) I was like yes, how'd you know? "Oh, I looked you up on facebook" !! He looked me up on the internet?! lol I didn't even know that he knew my name! lol ha so we said that we can fratinize with the fortstaff online! lol (Oh and don't worry about that guy, he just wanted to tell me that he is head of the history depeartment at MSU and just wanted me to know in case I had questions about it, nothing creepy! lol)
ok I'm done. Augh I have to work today after having a week off. OOOOO yea my old high school director is now the prinicple at Keppen School. So as of now my high school has no badn director. Their first marching band rehearsal is next week!!! Well I'm out of high school so it doesn't affect me! lol
