Last night was the meeting with the whole Yakima team for Orcas. My pod (pod 'cause that's what orcas travel in), is made up of two women teachers, five girl mentors and two guy mentors. None of you guys know then except Anna and Cherize know two of them. Molly and Kim. Yes, you read right, Molly is in my pod. But it's okay 'cause the purpose of my going to Orcas has nothing to do with Molly. Maybe if I keep telling myself that. . . no it really is okay. It's just that as I discovered last summer, she pays more attention to me and my boy than her boy. That's bad. Plus she talks about her past boys in front of her new boy. She's talking to me or someone else, but he's right there so he hears which is not good. I need to talk to her about that. . . and now I'm ranbling. Anyways, my little boy for this summer is Jeffrey Martinez. I know his dad is white, his mom is mexican, he goes to Adams Elementary and he always looks like he lost his best friend. I will need to call the teachers of my pod to find out more so I can get age appropriate toys. The good news is that in comparing Jeff to last summer's Sergio, he'll be easier. *heave sigh of relief* We leave on June 20th and come back on the 24th. It's almost a month away! If only we could skip to the 17th of June. Then school would be over. (That's an added bonus.) But the 17th is when we puffy paint the blue sweatshirts for the boys. It's really fun! That's on Friday. The following Sunday we have commitioning at 1st Pres at 9:30AM instead of the usual 8:ooAM! Hooray for sleeping in! Then it's back to 1st Pres by 2:30PM to meet the 21 mentors, six teachers, the other director and assorted suppost staff from Kennewick. This year we're going to have a clown's communion. Does anyone know how that is different from a regular communion? I guess I'll find out in a month, but I'm curious. Then we get blabbed at for a while, eat dinner and have the opening ceremony where we get to meet our boys!!! My pod is the spider crab so we need to have a spider crab on us somewhere. Kim and I are going to make shirts. (That way we can wear them after Orcas is over.)
On a side note today I reread a book I'm going to recommend to all girls that read my blog. It's called forsuchatimeisthis by Lisa Ryan. I will lend it to anyone. It's a book about how to be a modern day Esther. (That's why no boys will be interested unless you want to be a modern day Esther too.)
