What next?!

I forget where I was or who I was talking to, but somebody asked me what my next big adventure is.

Well, let me tell you: It involves living in northern Arizona for three months.

I'm going to be a CAMP COUNSELOR! Or, something like that. I could also end up doing photo/video for the camp, but counselor is a close enough description.

When I applied for an internship with the Associated Press in January, I also applied for a position at United Christian Youth Camp--where I went basically every summer between fourth and eighth grade.
This was probably fourth or fifth grade. Can you find me?

I've wanted to be a summer staff member there since I was in eighth grade (maybe even before then) but it hasn't worked out until this summer.

And, so, that's my next adventure! I'll be moving to Prescott in about a month, and will remain there until the beginning of August.

While I'm there, I hope to:
  • Do some outdoorsy stuff (kayaking, biking, swimming, etc?)
  • Be the cliché camp counselor with a ukulele, yoyo, fanny pack and cowgirl hat
  • Take photos/video for UCYC promo material (and to make this look good on a journalistic resume)
  • Complete an online history of photography class so I can officially graduate in May
Before then, I'll also (hopefully) be taking a quick trip to California to go to Disneyland with my friend Mitch and to climb some rocks and eat crepes with my friend Jess (who moved back to California after I helped move her back to Arizona...)

And after camp, I'm going to help move my friend Hannah back from Dallas and visit my friend Natalie in Austin while I'm in Texas.

Later, I'm road tripping with my parents.

As you can see, I've got a lot of adventures planned for the rest of the year :) It's really never a boring moment in my life, so brace yourselves for a summer of adventure with me!
