The Chronicles Of A Camp Counselor: Kid Quotes Edition

It's been six months since I was forced to return to the real world after being a camp counselor all summer. I grew a lot as a person and learned an incredible amount, but the biggest lesson I learned was just how weird and funny kids are. The phrase "kids say the darnedest things" took on a whole new meaning.

I was recently scrolling through pictures of my time during the summer, and came across pages and pages of day-camper (6-10 year olds) quotes that we kept updated on notebook paper taped to the refrigerator, so with only three months until I return, I thought I'd share the top 10 camper quotes of last summer.

1. "I'm going to paris to destroy the world's largest ant colony with a bazooka."

2. "If you say cuss words you go to jail."

3. "I did four sit ups today. I'm trying to get myself bikini ready."

4. "Yeah I'm special because for some reason wherever I go I get whatever I want."

5. Counselor: "Can you please help me find the remote?"

Camper: Rolling eyes and groaning "It's right here."

Counselor: No, that's just a stapler...

6. Counselor to camper: What did you name your rats?

Other Camper: "You should name them fat ass!"

7. "I came here because I thought I could be free...(jumps off pillar) why can't you just let me be free!"

8. "THERE'S A BABY IN MY MOM'S STOMACH AND IT'S EATING HER INSIDES!!!"

9. Camper 1: "We have pimples."

Camper 2: "Actually, they're called nipples."

10. "I drink New York Milk, so that makes me half New York."

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
