Goodreads

I love to read. It's something that I have loved to do since I was a little girl. Last year a good friend of mine introduced me to the social networking site for books Goodreads.

I love this site!
You can keep track of what you have read and what you want to read.

You can explore books and add them to your to-read list or your read list and rate them.

You can even measure the progress of books you are currently reading.

You  can even set a goal for number of books you want to read this year.

Its fun because you can explore books in the same genre you enjoy, explore books by your favorite authors, and discover books that you would like to read because your friends have read or are reading them. You can also join online book clubs and participate in book swaps with other members if you would like.

I've really enjoyed this site because I am able to keep track of all the books I want to read in one place instead of on scraps of paper and on bookstore websites. So if you love books as much as me I would really recommend it. 

Camp is Almost Here!

This week has been very busy for me as I have been taking classes to get ready for my job at camp. First off I took a sailing counselor class this past weekend to train me to be able to teach sailing to my little campers. This week I have been taking a water safety instructor course which is helpful to have at camp but certifies me to teach swim lessons (so I can use it all year long).

This is a picture of our staff at day camp last year.
(Recognize the shirts? We did a legends of the
hidden temple theme)

I love camp. Anyone who has ever worked at a camp before will tell you its not an easy job but it is also a very fulfilling job. Also you get to meet some great people who can also pull some of the funniest pranks on you.

This is me two years ago when I discovered they'd put mine and the other counselors in my leanto's mattresses complete with bedding, alarm clocks, and stuffed animals on the roof. :)
