Ah, summer camp. One of the best times for the campers and one of the most stressful times for the counselors. If you've ever spent your summer being a counselor, odds are you can relate to these 10 things.
1. Never being called the right name
2. Having the worst tan lines
Nothing's worse than having to rock the drastic tan lines whenever you want to wear something other than your work clothes.
3. Constantly having a first aid kit with you
4. Making sure you have all your kids and counting heads every second of the day
The last thing you want is to lose a kid.
5. The stress that is a field trip
Leaving the camp, being stuck on a bus, and having to keep your kids in check in a place with a ton of non-camp people? Oh god please no, no, no
6. Camp songs stuck in your head all. day. long.
From Boom Chicka Boom, Bazooka Bubblegum, to Baby Shark, you can't beat the classics.
7. Dealing with that one kid who refuses to do anything
Don't even lie, you are totally picturing that one kid in your head right now.
8. Always being gifted pictures and drawings from your campers
How many pieces of paper with their name drawn on it can a person own?
9. At least one kid asking you what’s next on the agenda every 30 seconds
The schedule isn't going to change the more you ask me what's happening next, kid. How about you stop annoying me and we can move on with our lives.
10. Meeting some of the best people
Listen, you meet some of the greatest people through summer camp. I mean, you are spending every day together during the week. You're bound to form friendships and make amazing memories with them.
