This week was soo great! So great. The volunteers were amazing and I got really close to a bunch of kids. Not only the kids, but the group leaders were soo amazing to us! They gave us lots of gifts and went out of their way to make sure that we were doing okay. It was really nice to be nurtured and taken care of after the crazy week we had earlier, and they were all super understanding of everything. I'm such a cornball BUT I think my favorite part of the week was being able to hang out at Peter Pan and Cinderella (two sites that are neighbors) for hours every day and just hang with the volunteers. I got to be a staffer there for like 10 minutes and actually say construction-related things, but the rest of the time I'd just jam to good music and talk with them. A lot of times on runs we only get to stay for like 15-20 mins per site but I somehow made it to their sites every day... sick.
Yesterday Jared, Megan and Matt (volunteers from week 2) came and stayed with us!!!! They are the best volunteers in the world, and so last night we had a dodgeball tournament for probably 2 1/2 hours. It was so fun because it was fist pump friday so we would take extended fist-pumping breaks mid-game with the lights off. It got pretty intense. Today we took them to the rope swing again and I jumped off first.. ughh it's so crazy! we brought an underwater camera so I got some good shots, I'm pumped to get them developed. Anywayyssss we just did lots of work and now we're gonna watch some shudder island. I can't believe tomorrow's our last sunday of volunteers... weird. This summer has gone by so fast and I'm a little sad that it's a memory and there's not much else to expect. It's almost August.. whaaaaat!!
203 here I come baby
