I have been volunteering with the Epilepsy Foundation for the last three years. Once a year they have an adult retreat and I volunteer as a camp counselor. Surprising isn't it? Me, a camp counselor, how crazy is that?
But you know what? I think I make a great camp counselor and had a blast doing it for the last couple of years. I actually got started volunteering with this foundation because of my ex-girlfriend. Well, this will be my first time attending the camp solo. They really needed male counselors so I decided to continue volunteering with them. I am excited but a little nervous at the same time. The last couple of years all of the participants knew that my ex and I were a couple so I am prepared to face the questions this weekend about our breakup. I'm sure it won't be a big deal. But every time I have to re-explain the situation, Its like reliving the memory of the breakup.
Anyway, I won't be near a computer all weekend long. This is good, because I just need to get away for a while and enjoy nature. The camp is beautiful and so peaceful. I plan on taking advantage of the peace during the early morning hours and run a couple of miles for some solitude. This is just the thing I need to recharge my batteries.
If you don't hear from me in a while, I was either eaten by a bear or the Blair Witch got me...
