A Week - or rather, two - More of Summer Gone

Well, last week at work was alright. It wasn't amazing, but it wasn't horrible.

Good Points: (about last week)

a.) Signing: I got to visit the only Deaf individual that lives in Silverton (a 10-yr old boy). That was nice...though I have some "issues" and things that bother me....I'm learning from my experience there.

Also, I got to go to the Deaf chat at Border's in Salem, and that was a challenge. The f/s (fingerspelling) was what killed me. Overall, I felt I understood alright and was able to communicate my ideas somewhat clearly.....we'll see how class treats me this fall. Hmmm....

b.) Fishy, fishy, fishy: I had the opportunity to go fishing with my mum this last Saturday. I caught the same fish twice....well, it looked identical in every way. The third one I caught looked significantly different. My mum caught one or two....dumb fish. But, thems tasty worms! I didn't eat any, but the fish thought they were. One time, my worm made it's way all the way up the line - past the place where you hook/clip on your hook - and up to where the weights are....can't figure that one out, but it was a relaxing and enjoyable time.

c.) I'm sure I was originally going to put a third point here, but I cannot remember - from the time I first drafted until now, I've slept.

For this week - since it's almost over - camp was not good. I'm about ready to "quit" since the campers DON'T listen. They almost do the opposite of what I and the other counselor says. We are now threatening (in just about every way) the campers that they will not ride if (dot, dot, dot). It has been a trying week. Hopefully next week will get better. Yeah for only ONE activity tomorrow! Whooooo!

This weekend? Looking for a book and plan to organize boxes. Also am hoping to finish a DVD project. Just need to adjust a few things, then: presto! It'll be done and over, and I can send it out to my trip advisor and two faculty support staff. : )

That's it for now. Nothing too interesting, nor anything to really write home about. Had the chance to give an opportunity to do a special pony ride for some family friends, and they spent about two hours or so with and around the horses....that was a great experience I am happy I had the opportunity to do this.
