not gone let it stress me no more.

Had my day off a couple days ago n went into Amherst and Northampton, as planned. We went to this awesome breakfast place where I tried vegan pancakes for the first time. They were amazzzing. I wanted to give my leftovers to this homeless guy on the corner, but he wasn't there when I went back :( We also we to a vegan bakery in Northampton called Evolution Cafe. I had this awesome double chocolate cupcake with chai icing. mmmmm. It was a total vegan day until I came back to camp and had a burger haha. The shops around these towns are so unique. None of these stores would stand a chance around us! Oh, and there's a Whole Foods and a Trader Joes a couple blocks from one another. and they're both less than 5 minutes away. I also bought the Dr. Horrible sing-along-blogs DVD :)

Yesterday wasn't nearly as good as my day off. It was a full day of working out and I stupidly decided that I didn't need to take my period off. So by the end of the night when I was supposed to be giving my all to my Indonesian soccer team, I was hurtin. I also realized that I wasn't in the best of moods, and neither was one of my campers. So I took her back to our suite and we talked for close to 2 hours. She talked about her family a lot, so by the time I sent her to bed I was feelin kinda homesick myself.

So I'm in a somewhat crappy mood thinking about how the people I want to talk to all the time, I don't. and the people who I thought wouldn't check up on me at all are constantly asking me how camp is going. And I know, phone works both ways, I can do the calling myself. but I don't know, the thoughts of not hearing from some was definitely not improving my mood. So I found Kiel Kim and Nick and we all got ice cream. And thennn I hooked myself up with a diet coke, and all was pretty right with the world again - just getting off camp for an hour really helped. the simple things in life..

This post doesn't have any real point to it. It's kindof just a reminder to myself that I don't want to let myself get in a bad mood around here. This is a great experience and I know it. so I'm gonna try real hard not to let anything get to me, from home or otherwise. I've got 7 weeks here to make a real difference for myself and a whole buncha rockin campers. keep shinin on.

xoxo
