life according to me

oh camp........

2007-07-20T20:11:00.000-07:00

So the end of the summer is here. Another great season with Adventure Camp. These are some quotes from kids and other crew leaders. Yea for camp and I can not wait for next summer.

camper: oh i don't need to wash my hands, i just wiped them on that kid's back.

camper: man, i would pay anything to see that lady go down the slide. (talking about a VERY large women standing in line at the water park)

val: basically i do yoga in the streets of D.C.

"did you just make that dirty?" (we could make anything dirty, including getting sick)

camper: that's why i don't cut my hair, because lice and ticks don't like dirty long hair like mine.

Jeannie: Can we just duck tape a piece of mulch to it, look here's a really flat piece (talking about what to use to replace on bike peddle for one of our mountain bikes)

Jeannie: do we have any one legged campers this week? (again talking about the mountain bike with one peddle)

me: this is like magic for my eyes (the fire at Blue Jacket)

me: i am just an eye sore today (wearing my lovely matching clothes)

Me: i am just a failure at life
camper: yea you are

me: geeze Bo what took you so long?
Bo: i was waiting for the line to be shorter, girrrl

camper: Jess are you sure you can see? (when i got in to drive the van)

camper: blood, that's crazy! (as she wipes it off all down her pants)

Weddings are VERY educational

2007-07-15T19:14:00.001-07:00

So I learned a lot at my sisters wedding. Some very important life lessons.... hahaha...

1. don't get your nails done when you need to pay attention, because they are very distracting and you won't be able to concentrate.

2. squatting makes every picture look better

3. even i can look like a girl.

4. the bride and groom can still "shake it" despite wearing a tux and a wedding dress

5. I have a very large wendling side of the family, i forget that sometimes....

6. if you are in the bridal party you can have as many drinks at once as you want to:)

7. even if you are not related by blood you can still be sisters... (dbss) :)

Klondike stop taking away our food!

2007-07-04T19:08:00.000-07:00

So its July 4th and I just finished work - 6 hours in the sun (well sun and rain) and a sweaty tear down I just wanted to come home and eat dinner.....

So I walk in the door no one is home to hand me food after my taxing day. Crap the dishes are not washed, (this means I have to wash them). Hmmmmm a salad, too much work to fix, chicken, nahhh that requires heating it up. I wonder if there is anything good in the freezer. A KLONDIKE BAR!!! perfect, I have not had one of those in years! I grabbed one and sat down to start eating. Its then that I realize there is something different. THEY MADE THE SMALLER! Klondike bars are now skinnier! WTF! I want all of my delicious Klondikey goodness. I demand a return of the ice-cream and chocolate that should be there. Go out today and get some Klondike bars you will notice the difference.

So Klondike bar people I am not happy with you at this point in time, you ruined my dinner.... geeze

So not cool. Not cool at all.

reasons why people should listen to me

2007-06-27T22:01:00.000-07:00

1. because i am right, usually
2. because i will speak up when i know i am right
3. because i will call you out when i think your ego is too big
4. because i listen to you, and its only nice to listen to me
5. because i am short and i make up for it in having a loud voice, and it will get louder if you do not listen

i know there are more, especially with camp coming up:)

ummmm

2007-06-19T12:58:00.000-07:00

ok so ice-cream truck man it is raining and its in the 70's with no sun. I would not even consider wearing a tank top right now. However you decide that today, TODAY you will drive down my street. Where were you yesterday when it was in the mid 90's? I was dying, no air conditioning, no wind, and lots of sun do not mix well with out some nice cold ice-cream to cool me down. I will give you one more chance to not screw up. Please be smart next time- p.s. driving through the neighborhood today was a poor life choice........

Ohio State

2007-05-31T07:03:00.000-07:00

so being back home with everyone who loves Ohio state is lovely, except we are constantly going over what is going to happen this next season for football and basketball..........

Dear Ohio State athletes (specifically football and basketball)

I go to school in that state up north, yes i know if i were a true Ohio-an I would be going to OSU. I would be in the student section drunk and with my face painted and yelling non-stop at the players. Well I chose a place where we get blizzards in April, and I love it, even if we do not have the 'Shoe' up there.

So I have a favor to ask of you. I got way too much ridicule from all of my friends, my professors, my teammates (Les:D), my trainers, my coaches, etc. so i would really appreciate it if you did not embarrass me again. I would really like it if you would at win at least one national championships, or at least not loose in two major sports in the final game to the same team.

If you would, please annihilate the gators this year, (I would like to be able to drink Gatorade again) I would be quite happy. Thank you for taking time to read this. Good luck with your season.

MY MOM THREW AWAY MY CHOCOLATE!!!!

so not cool.............

summer

2007-05-27T19:56:00.001-07:00

so i thought summer was suppose to be relaxing.... hahaha summer is suppose to be the time when everyone gets to take a break from school, a break from responsibilities, a break from life and just time to yourself. to re-cope and prepare oneself for another nine months of hard work. most people now have internships are working 40+ hours, and some are even taking classes on top of that. This is all done just so they can build up a resume, or graduate earlier, well i say have fun travel the world, we're young.

i would just like to say good luck to all those who their summer jobs keep them from having fun and for those of you who have summer jobs that allow you to have a blast good luck too:) (elee and kate)

i might have a problem......

Dear chocolate,

I love you terribly much. This is the truth plain and simple. I love you so very much that it breaks my heart when I do not get to have you every day. There for do not judge me when I go to the store and buy one, or two, or four bars and then proceed to eat all of it within 48 hours.

The only reason this happens is because I was on chocolate deprivation for three days. That is too long. One day I can handle, two is hard, but three, three is just way too long. I can not concentrate, and all I see is chocolate. The cars have Reese's Peanubutter Cup for tires, the drivers are talking on their Hershey bar cell phones, etc. So tonight when I go grocery shopping and I fill the cart up with lots of fruit and vegetables, then go to get the same amount of endanger specie bars as I did fruit, do not judge.

see you tonight,
Jess

this is for bridget

as Bridget listens to her British inner monologue I started to realize that my inner monologue is shouting to be heard.....

If you have never read one of Bridget's postings, you really should, they really are good and quite amusing, and one of the best procrastination tools that I use.

So Bridget, thank you so much for inspiring me to start this, and for helping me procrastinate, especially when it came time to study for Mowafy's tests:) I truly enjoy reading your blog, and I only hope that as many people will read mine and enjoy them too.
