A big hello to all you guys in dads maths class! I hope he isn't working you too hard! Thanks for all the msgs you guys send me it's really cool to hear from back home. Sorry about only gettin back to you now but it's really hard to get on the net at camp because we only have 1 crappy computer for all the staff and the internet is really slow and it crashed the other week and hasn't been working since. Next week is my last week of camp then I travel round the U.S and canada then to [View Full Entry]

This weeks theme was super hero’s and me n Ying had the batman boys. ( the older boys 7-10) I also had shitty bus duty with Ryan a local doing an art major at college (he’s real good at drawing comic book characters! This gave me an extra 4 hrs every day, which sucks! One morning we left on of the little girls at the Y.M.C.A where we picked all the kids up and had to go back and get her, making us an hour late to camp. But it wasn’t entirely our fault, no one told us to go inside [View Full Entry]

“I can change the world, with my own 2 hands! Make a better place, oh with my own 2 hands, with my own, with my own 2 hands!” A couple of thousand people with both hands in the air singing along, holy shit this concert was awesome!! After a full on week @ camp me n Ying (1 of the US staff) drove to Royal Oak a nicer suburb of Detroit. The Royal Oak music theater is an old school theater with big high ceilings, balcony, seating and plenty of standing room. When we got there a guy called Tim Freud [View Full Entry]

Hey Everyone, We are back in America and I decided to put one last post up for the sake of closure. We went through the whole range of emotions, from joy to anger, as you may have seen from some of our posts. I'm sure it helped us to become more unified. We did a lot, saw a lot, and learned a lot. Now we just need to do more. It would be easy to preach to you about how spiritual we are for going to India. It would be easy to accept praise from everyone about our willingness to sacrifice.

PUT YOUR PANTS ON!!! And stop running around naked! The amount of times that I have had to say that in the boys changing rooms. Little boys luv to run around in their b’day suits and flash each other. This week if any of the boy groups had swimming and had to get changed I had to be there helping them get dressed, undressed, sunscreen on and making sure they don’t run wild because they would if I wasn’t there! Because there are only 3 guy counselors and Ying is tower instructor most of the time so he isn’t a counselor [View Full Entry]

Americans love their fireworks! Every person in the U.S lets off over a pound's worth each a year if you divide it All up! The 4th of July weekend (independence day or something) sounded like we where at war and the artillery was going sic, BOOM, BOOM!! non stop all weekend. It was tops though because the opposite end of our little lake are houses and they let off heaps. So we got to watch them lettin em off over the lake all night. The Monday was 4th of July and a holiday for the yanks but we had to work, [View Full Entry]

Go the Tigers! I was so pumped to be getting out of camp, even though we get weekends and afternoons off we can only go somewhere if the American staff take us out. And since I was with Detroit fans and I was staying in Michigan I became a Detroit tigers fan. We finished on Friday and got set and Ying drove us to Detroit. But in his little 2 door sporty car we had me and him in the front and Gaby from Mexico, Sara from Denmark, Nstia from Russia and aika from Kazakhstan in the back. So the car [View Full Entry]

Week 3 was pretty good, the boys where a bit better behaved. Some of this weeks boys where funny little characters and they all luv the croc hunter. They all ask if I know him and if i wrestle crocodiles! So for the talent show this week we did a croc hunter skit. We made a cardboard croc and painted him up and named him mean Murry and had it strapped it to 2 boys backs and the rest of us where all croc hunters. And we did our best Steve impressions and jumped on Murry and carried him off to [View Full Entry]

Week 2 was pretty similar to last week with a few variations. Firstly our camp director Dustin got sick and was in hospital for most of the week so we had the big boss Bear in working with us. He is a bit full on and a bit of a natzy, you can't wear pluggers or sandals without back straps and we had to carry our first aid kits at all times. And he made a heap of changes which resulted in nobody knowing what the hell was going on, but we managed and it was all good. I had a [View Full Entry]
