heya just a quick one for now i will try and get on later to do a longer one!

so had smores and did our sket and then they had showers and went to bed!

friday everyone else was packing up and getting ready to leave so we had a swim in the morning and then another one again in the evening and the bats were swooping down over the swimmig pool as the girls were swimming which made life guarding a bit more interesting! before that as we were the only people on camp appart from the 4 junior counsellors and raccoon we decided we would move into the enmier for the weekend so we got a tractor ride round the camp site to get to our unit so we could pick up the sleeping stuff like sleeping bag, pjs etc. we then watched ice age the melt down in the basment and after that had finished they headed to the attick were they were sleeping!

Saturday we got to have a lay i didn't have breakfast till aroud 9am then we played some games such as musical bumps, statues, chairs and sleeping lions we then got ready and headed to the pool where i ended up life guarding for going on 2 hours and it was pretty hot to say the least but the kids had loads of fun as okey and jeeves came and joined us! so around 1pm we got them out of the pool to go and have a picknick on the tables and so they could have a rest out of the sun and also i needed one too! then around 2pm we headed back to the pool were we and jeeves tried to use the back board which is extremely rubblish so we mover to the shallow end to do it and we also taugh them some spinal techiques and towing! then i got jeeves to sit up in the chair cause i wanted to say in th water for a while! we stayed in the pool till nearly 5pm then we got out and had showers! then it was dinner and then we had sing star and another movie butthis time on the projector! then headed to bed as we had to get up early on sunday to move our stuff all down to telahi and get ready to go to the great wolf lodge!

anyway sunday we headed off to the great wolf lodge which is a big water park were u an also stay the night, u an only go if u are going for a party or you are staying the night! well we got booked in as a party so we left our stuff in the party area and headed off in groups to the rides! we headed for the tornado first which is like a big sink plugyou get swirled around then go out the middle it was a lot of fun! we headed onto different rides then at 1pm we headed back to the party area to have a cake which was super nice very thick and rich icing then after that we headed off to go on some more rides until around 3.30pm when we headed off to get dry so we could head into the arcade where we had each got 5 tokens each and we could play games to earn tickets which were then turned into prizes! i ended up getting some sweets and a bead necklace! we then arrived back at camp just in time for dinner were there were all the new campers! we were all knackered suday night so we got a nice early night so we could start a new week!

we just done the normal, but in wednesday afternoon the water balloons that the kids had been earning finally came into use when we had our big water balloon fight! it takes hours to fill them all up and they are gone within the space of a few minutes ! anyway me and kung-fu stood in themidddle we had buckets and the hose pipe and a sand pit full of water so if the kids wanted anymore balloons then they had to try and get some off us but ofcourse we soaked them! then we ran out so we allowed them to use the buckets then they started to get us wet! which was nice as it was really hot then we were in the pool after that!

then the big treat came on thursday night so all the kids new was that they were sleeping in the bottom of the enmier and they were going to watch a film! so they brought up all there sleeping stuff and got sent to have showers but were no longer allowed down into the basement! so while they were taking showers then sent off to campfire me and noodles started to decorate the basement with streamers on the ceeling in blue and white for the sea and waves we then made and island in the middle with hawian necklaces round it so each kid could have one! also in arts and crafts they were asked to paint an under the water animals so we had cut them out and they were hanging from the ceiling too!

me and noodles then headed off to camp fire cause we wanted to see our groups skets were they were taking the piss out of some off the councellors includig 2 for me! which was about how i don't like american choclate and only like english asmy nan had sent me a package in the mail and that i wasn't going to share it with anyone! anyway after we had saw that we saw jeeves heading back to the enmier so we bet her back then we got some balloons filled up and put them dow stairs also wraped up pass the parcel, got the candy ready for prizes and hung up a pinuata that jeeves had got the kid as an extra treat! anyway we got it all ready had some music playing and when they came down the stairs they couldn't believe it they were so excited it was great to see all the hard work we had put in had payed off so they played some party games downstair and danced to music then they headed up stairs to watch the movie and also find out what jeeves had got them one was the findig nemo pinuata and the other was that they were having ice cream sundies while they watched the movie they were so excitedagain they were running around giving us all hugs it was the best feeling every! then they all headed to bed around 1am to get up early teh nxt morning as they had to pack and head home! it was weird seeing them leaving as they had been with us for 2 weeks but it was slightly nice knowing we had a weekend to recover!

also on monday of this week i found out the news about ben! when i first read the message left by john i couldn't belive it! i had also missed a few calls from dom which i couldn't work out so i rang joh to see if it was actually true cause i thought it might be some kind of joke but when i talked to john i just broke down! i didn't know what todo so i just rang my mum and dad cause i was just so shocked i talked to them for a while cause i wasn't sure whether i should stay here or come home and they were like it was up to me so i then headed for a shower so i could clear my thoughts and then muym ad dad were going to ring me back in a short while but both my phones were close to dying so i walked down to the unit to get my phone charges and bumped into latte on the way down who gave me a big hug! i then put my phones on and talked to my mum and dad again who told me i needed to talk to one of the directors to i headed to talk to doc and okey! so i spoke to them who were very supportive and informed me they could talk to camp america and have me home within 24 hours and they would support me with what every i needed! i decided to stay out of the unit that night cause i know the kids started to get upset whe they saw that i was upset which i didn't want to do so i stayed in docs office and latte ad noodle came and played apple to apple with me till 1 am! then i went to sleep ad got up for breakfast the next moring but i wasn't very hungry i was still pretty shaken up so i decided to go help cece out in arts and crafts and then i went and helped my unit out for cook out lunch! the kids were all great they seemed pretty worried about why i was upset! i deceided to stay away another night just so i could get my head straight and i moved back to the unit on wednesday! it is still just a great shock! he didn't understand why i was having the goodbye party and was like to me i will see you when you get back so i don;t need to come and say goodbye but in the end i nagged him a bit as i do and he came! and i am so glad i did! one of the hardest things is being over here and not being able to support everyone back at home but i know in my heart that he would want me to stay here and have a good time for him at least so that is what i am trying to do! he will always be in my heart as he was such a good mate and we had so many laughs at work and i could talk to him about almost anything! i know he wiill be greatly missed by everyone who knew him and i am thinking of him everyday and my heart is with you all at home and i am so sorry that i can't be there and i hope u all understand!
