Never Knew How Hard It Is To Be A CIT

I wrote this last night. For now I'm off to bed planning to continue my new trend of waking up at 8 in the morning.


Here i am at the last night of camp. Its been my first time in a leadership position outside of my church and babysitting and I am surprised at how difficult it has been. Even though I've been splitting the responsibility of being a counselor, managing eight girls aged nine to twelve, is no easy task. I had forgotten how sensitive girls can be and how much time it takes to move a group from point A to point B. I'm shocked at how tired I am and how difficult it is to be responsible from the time I wake up to bedtime every day. So far, there weren't any bathroom breaks in the middle of the night, so at least I have my sleep to myself. The girls are beautiful and clever, though trying at times. They have fights, get sick and are picky eaters. Overall, it's been a good experience and i probably will go back as a counselor instead of a CIT (training), but for now I cant wait to get the camp songs out of my head.
