...is what a morning at Camp Ballibay is like!
Hello readers!
Good morning to you half-way through the second week of this session. When I woke up this morning, I rolled over and looked at the camp calendar on my wall and literally felt my mouth hanging open. How is it possible that I've been here over 5 weeks, completed 3 out of 4 shows, and that this last session is a third of the way done? It simply doesn't seem as though all that has been achieved truly has happened! The way that time passes here, it's easy to feel as though time is literally slipping away from you -- which can easily bring a person down (after all, it's depressing to realize the summer is coming to a close!)
The good thing is that at Ballibay, it's impossible to ever feel truly down in the dumps. Every single aspect of the camp and the camp's programs work against feeling low. Yesterday before dinner, I felt sad because I realized that camp was really nearing it's end and that the whole summer was nearly over. And then, as I walked down to the dining hall, I heard music coming from the porch outside of the building. It was an impromptu rock band performance to serenade us before we ate. It was a fun moment that got everyone to dance and clap along. Just another reminder of why every moment at Ballibay is the ultimate pick-me-up.
More soon,
