"Furthermore, we have not even to risk the adventure alone, for the heroes of all time have gone before us. The labyrinth is thoroughly known; we have only to follow the thread of the hero path. And where we we had thought to find an abomination, we shall find a god; where we had thought to slay another, we shall slay ourselves; where we had thought to travel outward, we shall come to the center of our own existence; and where we had thought to be alone, we shall be with all the world."
- Joseph Campbell, "A Hero with a Thousand Faces"

Day 1 of the Month of Travel

Ah, my last day off at this Maine camp. I am now the proud owner of a Portland, Maine t-shirt. I love that city.

And after camp...

THE WIZARDING WORLD OF HARRY POTTER!

*ahem

Not to get ahead of myself... Currently I am trying to finagle a way to visit Ashley in New York on my way home. I should be able to leave the night before, though I do not know if I will have a place to stay the night yet. That depends on Lindsay and her peeps in RI.

I am getting more and more excited about leaving this job. Is that bad? I swear it is merely because I am super burnt-out of teaching lame lessons and constantly being surrounded by children. And being judged by whether or not I am outwardly happy. Grr. That is my response. Humbug! Seriously, I cannot work all the time with no me time, especially in a place that is not mentally healthy for me. Kids are too much for me.

So if anyone ever wondered if this awkward white girl would have children in the future, the answer remains negative. NEIN! I say, NEIN!

I bought two books today. Of course a Borders had to pop up out of nowhere while I was wandering, so I had to go inside and inevitably had to buy the discounted books. I got another by Don Miller (I bought one of his books last day off) and one by Max Lucado. Maybe I will write more about those after I read them.

'Til next time...

    Summer camp kids are out of control. Even I , who loves children and always assumed I wanted them...Have decided after a summer with the type of campers that both of our jobs housed, do NOT want children. lol
