Oh Heyyy, It's Engineering Camp!

So for the past three weeks I had pretty a non-existent life except for engineering camp! Don't get me wrong it was a blast and I met a lot of amazing kids and staff! I wouldn't have traded that experience for anything.

Our typical week day looked something like this...

7:10-Wake up and get ready for breakfast and the day
7:30-Breakfast
8:30-Take the kids to class
9:00-3:30-Free Time! Ha..most of us had class or napped or went to the gym.
3:30-Pick up the kids from class
4:00-Free time where the counselors were "available and visible"
5:30-Dinner
7:00-Evening Activities! This is the part the counselors planned. We did everything from bowling, to water balloon fights, to coffee runs, to "Syme Fun," Engineering projects, arts&crafts, LOTS of sports, and finally a TALENT SHOW!
11:00-Curfew for the kids
11:30-Counselors can finally sleep!
12:00-We finally do actually go to sleep

We had so much fun these past few weeks. I learned how to shoot a water balloon from a sling shot (and I had pretty good aim if I do say so myself), gained muscle weight from the gym, choreographed a dance to "Call Me Maybe," drove a FREAKING FIFTEEN PASSENGER VAN and didn't die, successfully wore Champion shorts every single day, perfected my "mom" look, and so much more.

I hope the kids had just as much fun as I did and hope to see them at NCSU in one or two years! :)
