Leaving Camp

It will literally change your life.

Leaving Camp
Tiger Khokunthod

So, I'm home. Camp is over for I and now I'm just back to the school grind. I really loved this summer. It was challenging, difficult, tiring, but incredibly rewarding. I constantly asked myself, "Why did I work at camp AGAIN?". But as I look towards the end of the summer and going into school once again I like to just reflect as to why I had such an awesome summer.

To start off, lives were CHANGED. CHANGED was our theme this summer and it was awesome just to see God work in so many campers lives. It was never easy to get to those moments to create space for those encounter with God but they were so great when it did happen.

I'm really going to miss being in the Chapel. I literally lived in the Chapel this summer and I just put so much blood, sweat and tears into that place. It was always a ton of work and whole lot of stress, but shoot, I just will miss the excitement of Chapel.

And Finally, I made FRIENDS that I will never forget. We had such an awesome staff and I am just so blessed to have made so many great friendships that will last a long time. I just love those people so much and I miss them just writing this article. They are all very loving people and constantly make me feel loved.

If you ever wanted to work at camp, DO IT! It will literally change your life. Shoutout to Lake Geneva Youth Camp for a great summer.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer.
