Camp Weekend: Hand Jives, Flash Cards and Psychology.

This past weekend. I had my first ever camp weekend at Camp Arc Spencer. And it generally went well.

We do pretty much everything in Snavely lodge during these weekends. And a few campers and staff show up. So, on Friday night, campers and staff showed up, and we had dinner, hung aroud and then put the campers to bed.

After campers were bed, the other staff members were curious to know how "Grease" was coming, and wanted to see a dance. In "Grease" my specialty dance is the Hand Jive, but I needed a partner to show it, so I pulled out Andrea, to do it with me, and we showed the others how it went.

The next day, we had campers color and do some haloween crafts. then during rest hour, Nicole had me help her make Pre-Algebra flash cards. They were regular flash cards, but she was adding negative signs to the numbers, to show how to work with both positive and negative numbers. Since, I'm a math major myself, I helped.

Then we had a hay ride though Kon-O-Kwee. THen dinner, dance and finally we put campers to bed. That night, Jess performed psychology on Mitch. She asked him questions about his life, and why doe does things he does. it was interesting.

I had to leave a little bit early today, because of play practice. But I'll be back at camp in December.

Stay tuned...

Severe Stupidity

That's what I had this past Friday. I had a major car accident.

On the Sewickley Bridge, I looked down to adjust the radio. Then the car in front of me stopped suddenly. I slammed on the brakes, but it was too late. My car was totaled. Air bag deployment and everything.

Damn!

The only good thing I can say is that thankfully nobody was injured. I had a sore nose, from the blast of the air bag, but that was about it.

So I was taken to the Sewickley police station and given a citation for careless driving. Then I called my neighbor, who came over and gave me a ride home. Because my mother was out of town, this weekend.

I managed to get a ride to play practice on Sunday, from John Locke. So I didn't have to miss that.

My mother was pretty angry about this, when she found out. Then the auto mecnanics said that my car isn't worth fixing, because of the extent of the damage. So, I'm in a tight spot right now.

Later...

Homecoming Showing...

For Homcoming, week, The cast of "Grease" did a portion of the show, to promote the RMU Colonial theatre.

This included tidbits of Act One, including "Summer Nights", "Since I Don't Have You" and "We Go Together."

Most of the cast just wore "Grease' t-shirts, but I had to wear costume, as Eugene, the nerd. I didn't do much. I wasn't in any of the songs done, except for But the hoop dance at the end of the Showing. That's about it.

Mitch, from camp, emailed me a while ago saying "Don't hurt yourself dancing." But I don't think he has to worry too much about that. I'm in almost no dances, in this show, right now.
