DAY OFFFFFFFFFFFFFf
Thank god we did a little partying last night and i slept in until 1:30 today and im convinced that im probably going to sleep for like 5 days when i get back i cant believe how tired i am all the time here, i can never complain about lifeguarding ever again!!!!
So the kids are starting to pair off, i was out in the field reading Jane Austin and all these kids were walking arm in arm around the lake....YIKES and tonight i do believe we have a sleep out in tents and i just pray that they stay in their tents....i really dont want to be the one to break up a midnight visit YUCK YUCK YUCK
So I have a frog update....they seem to be multiplying they are everywhere...before every evening program we have to defrog congress because we keep stepping on thel. But they are getting bigger and i refuse to pick the big nasty ones up and there was a picking up squashing incident with another counselor so i use paper to remove them now and the other night Kitkat took about 5 min to pick one up all lovingly and then proceded to literally throw him out of congress....i dont think it lived!
Yes Mum the speedos were rampent infact there is a vending machine at the pools that sells speedos and bathings suits and caps just incase...and Batman bought himself a 9€ speedo from the machine oh it was fun!!!!
Alright well i think im off to find my day off buddy and have some lunch and finish my Austin!!!!

Real Camp and Lifeguards
Oh man oh man its been a very long week!!! And the best part is that kids stay.....oh wait was that sarcasm uhhh yes i think so!!! No but really the best part is that i have the day off tomorrow which is actually fantastic im so looking forwardx to it!
So the kids arrived and we gave them their funny names including Fergie Beyonce 50 cent shakira(who i keep calling fergie) and Kid Rock. They are all bigger kids between 12 and 15 and the drama is intesne they have been here long enough now that there are cliques including the not coolm girls who hate life, the cool girls, the weird boys, the cool boys...the slightly off boys and then there is James Bond who is in himseslf so very odd!!
Things have been a little rough, Blue and i are the only ones who have been at ths site before and all but three of us are brand new sooooo its a little stressful and we are up til 2 or 3 am every night preping for our classes...mostly because we have ridiculous theme days and ESL prep is so hard with days like Science Fiction.....the kids can only do so many word searches before they are going to attack me with their scissors.
Yesterday was the best day of life and also the longest....We got to go swimming it was absolutly fabulous there was an outdoor pool a outdoor diving area a pool specifically for kayaking trampolenes and then twso indoor pools with a massive slide that went outside.....it was amazing i was in heafven i did a bit of swimming lengths until these massive men came obviously on a sqwim team and i got out of there they would have polverized me!!!! So then we sat on the grass and chilled while Lifeguards delt with the brats...and it was the best role reversal of life except that i kept wanting to yell walk and scream at the under 7 kids who were just jumping in everywhere!!!!
I also decided taht it would be a good idea to get a t-shirt that said lifeguard on it from France and i happen to say this outloud and so Tulip dragged me over to ask the incredibaly amazingly ripped lifeguard if i could have his shirt.....he said he had to ask his supervisor but he said no buuuut....we are going back in Two weeks and he said i could have one then heee hee ohhh he was haaaat
