Stuff Campers Say..

After seven incredible weeks of being a camp counselor for 11-year-old girls, I walk away with the most rewarding feeling of making an impact on these kids. I also walk away with a sense of how utterly ridiculous campers can be.

I've compiled a list of highlights of the hilarious and weird things that the campers have said to us and to each other this summer. You can't make this stuff up, folks...

“HELLO! I am single and ready to mingle.” 

“We're the hottest group on camp without a Kardashian.” 

“I'm available, and who are you?”

“I'm not wearing any underwear! I'm thinking of going cantaloupe.” “I think you mean commando.”

“It wants to have its way with you.” (Talking about a mosquito that just bit me)

“I had a staring contest with the light, and now my eyes hurt.” 

“He wants to know if you have a map because he's lost in your eyes...even though you're wearing sunglasses.” 

“Can I call you Dominique Puen Contriguez, and you can call me Jo?” (Said by a girl named Rachel) 

(On one knee) “Will you... give me some nail polish remover?”

“Aim for the toilet. If you miss, you'll land among the floor.” 

“I'm gonna have an even number of kids so they all have a partner for the ski lifts.”

“They're wearing seven pounds of make up. I measured — with a calculator!”

“I fell.” “How?” “I was trying to step on Devin's shadow.”

“Wait, who's Baltimore?”  (After hearing the song "Good Morning, Baltimore") 

“You're like the scrambled eggs here — once you have a bite, nobody wants them anymore.”

“Don't be happy it's your birthday; you're one year closer to dying.” 

“If I had to change my religion, I would change it to Greece, because I like all the Greek Gods.” 

“You know someone could be a lesbian but they don't realize it yet. You can go online to take a test and find out.” 

“Sharks don't have eyes, right?”

“Blind people don't have eyes; they have holes in their head. That's why they wear sunglasses.”

“Minions have nice eyes.” 

“Where is Moscow?” “Russia.” “Do they speak Spanish there?”

“I'm really good at taking pills. It's like my hobby.”

“Do the fish sticks come from our lake?” 

“I hope I shart at the camp party, and then I'll open the first aid kit, and they'll hopefully have a diaper in there!” 

“Can we glue my foot to the wall?”

“I drew a concerned devil — a devil with a conscience.”

“Do we have to wear underwear?”

“I feel sick. Can I throw up on you?”

“My shadow makes me feel tall.”

“Would you be mad at me if I pooped my pants? I poop the most!”

“Did you fall from heaven? Because your face is pretty messed up.”

I hope you enjoyed a little taste of the absurdity and laughter that kids bring to the world. The quotes just keep rolling in, and the things they say never get old.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
