If you know about aching muscles, throbbing headaches and droopy eyes, you probably know that those are all signs of an individual who is tired. I am pleased to say that I completely fit that category at the moment.
Today was a BUSY day, and by busy I mean BUSY. I woke up at 7am after sleeping at 5am, got ready to go volunteering at a summer camp in which I am going to be a counsellor for the next 2 weeks. Alright I got up, I made breakfast for the entire family except for myself (I had a banana), and left for camp.
At camp there were about 30 kids, not a biggie especially because we did have 5 volunteers to help out...or so I thought. The little kids were a NIGHTMARE, it was like as if their parents fed them spoonfuls of sugar before leaving them with us. Anyways, we have a talent show coming up for the kids in which they will do a play, dance, sing and do monologues. Just guess what job I got to be in charge of...Of course, choreographing a dance for 30+ kids plus choreographing another dance for kids who were over the age of 10.
I had fun teaching the kids steps, although by the end of the day I can totally notice my vocal cords kicking in. I did understand that yelling, screaming and warning kids with time outs is not always the best solution to calm down a crowd.
After that fun filled day, I had to come home and make dinner because my mom is sick. Just as I was about to sit down, my mom said I had an appointment with my physiotherapist so I had to run there. After the appointment, I had to wait for 20 minutes outside the clinic for my dad, until I just decided to walk home (4km), but my dad picked me up half way home.
I decided to hit the gym and swimming pool at my local fitness center so I went there for 2 hours.
Now as I am typing this I can actually feel my eyelids closing. Sadly I have to do more chores before I can finally slam myself into bed, and of course look forward to another "Kaboom" of a day at camp.
