Kaylee at a Céilí

Tongiht we attended a super fun PARTY for one of the girls who is leaving here after a 2 year stay. Some folks here have an Irish and Scottish back ground so we had a little shin-dig called a céilí. First we has a pot-luck then some Keith games then the dancing began.

Once i steal katie's camera i will up load them. It was really fun getting to learn some new dances. I know know how to dance in 3 ways. Then we watched Chariots of fire. Fine until it got cold and i was tired and i was sitting on a bench.

Tomorrow we will head up to the camp site to have a team meeting before camp starts on monday. I will do a quick update with pictures before we leave on monday morning.

I only have 11 days left here i want to cry

Everyone loves Kaylee's Mamma

my mamma is here so everything is great.

We are starting all our stuff for the second camp today. Katie is in the kitchen cooking up something reallllly good smelling!

I will try and post some pictures later!

I got a little haircut today. I was a bit worried since Laura got a mullet 2 years ago at a place here, but it went really well. My friend Arzana showed me an awesome place and i was very happy so.. fun!

it isn't much different... but that is ok it is nice and leess heavy

Come on down

You are the next contestant on Name those Legs:

 

A full fun and fabulous Monday.

Yesterday was a crazy day. By 10 in the evening i was so tired i didn't even want to move.

We woke up extra early to hit the Football ( Soccer) field with some friends to have a little game.

I found out that goalieing must run in my family because i was the bomb.com at being goalie. I was blocking those balls like a mad woman.

After the game we quickly headed back to the house to meet up with all the kids for our exscertion to EURO PARK.  Which is an awesome pool that has diving boards, a slide, 2 huge pools and tons of other stuff.

After the pool on our way home and for the 2nd year in a row the bus broke down. I think it is a curse! hahah

But to pass the time waiting the boys decided to braid my hair haha

After a wait of about 30 min.  we got on another bus which was PACKED full of kids and we all had to stand for a 30 min. bus ride.. but that is the adventures of this wonderful world.

When copies get you down

On saturday, as normal my task to get ready for our meeting was to get the certificates made for our award ceremony. Knowing that i normally have trouble Katie prayed that i would be calm and not stressed. I was very glad for that.

So my good friend Trimi and i set off to get these copies finished. We walked in to our normal spot which told us the machines had been down for 3 days and we needed to come back monday... too bad we needed them for that day. So we headed over  to the old shop and their printers weren't connecting to the computers. Then to two more places who could only print in black and white and on this paper. ahhh

So Trimi and I head back to the first place just to print out on normal black and white since it is the cheapest there. After printing our 50 or so copies all the sudden the color printer is open and we can use it. So we start to print and every other one coming out got stuck. At this point it is 2:20 and the meeting starts at 3 ( note that all the copes must have students names written on them, signed by Rachael and Joanna and then stamped) so the guy at the shop tells us he will create the document in a new program.. so trimi and i are sitting there twiddling our thumbs watching the clock get closer and closer to three. So the guy finally finishes and at 3:05 a few minutes after i sent trimi with the first load i walk into the place we were having the awards ceremony. As i walk in rachael says to me " did you print out Outstanding Servant Leader " ( which please note is ONE copy) Of course i had forgotten in the rush of things. So i truck it back to the printer shop where they had already started another order and i had to wait 20 min. to use the machine for one copy. So i ended up getting back to the meeting at about 3:35 or so, but it was all worth it to see the guys face when he got the award.

below are some pictures of trimi and i trying to not go insane while waiting at the copy shop.

^^^Trimi ^^^^

some pampering

After a long and not much sleep camp our team always goes out for a "surprise dinner" There really is only 1 place that is the surprise so since most of us were returning we all knew we were going to our favorite place Trofta. So we got all dressed up in our sunday best and headed off for a nice quite dinner.

Trofta, which means trout in albanian, in a cute restaurant in a town called Istog. They raise trout there and it is really the only good place here to get fish. Lucky for me i don't like fish anyway, but i know that Katie really enjoyed her first fish in a month and a half. I did get Fish soup, which surprisingly i love despite my strong dislike for fish.

 

The picture above is of Nina, Trent and Katie.

Nina is from tenn and will be leaving out tomorrow and my wonderful Neighbor from back home Trent returned again for his third summer here. And everyone knows katie hehe

NOW... after some quite time we were all needing to let out a little.. i dont know.. frustration... anger... aggression... whatever you want to call it... so we headed across the street to an old favorite... BUMPER CARS. This is probably the only place here i have ever seen bumper cars, so it is awesome. I wouldn't say these are your Six Flags bumper cars either. They are alot less safe, a good bit faster and when you press the gas it tends to spark

below are some hysterical pictures of us killing each other on bumper cars haha

 

HIGHSCHOOL CAMP 2008

Team TEAL

I AM HOME.

HOW ABOUT SOME PICTURES 1ST?

cLICK TO MAKE THEM BIGGGGER!

The K-FOR called and they said you needed to move your missiles.

copies.

oh my gooooooooodness

today i made 579 copies. Now by working at PureFUN! you would think .. 579 that is nothing... but normally i would do like 2000 of one document, today i copied 33 different documents, in English and in Albanian. KILL ME!!!

HAHAHA

but it was fun... they let me take over the computer at the shop and it kind of makes me feel powerful.

I was actually really stressed this morning, but as i was just zipping through the copies i knew it wasn't My strength that was getting me along and it was just a really great feeling.

camp is Monday camp is Monday AHHHHHHHH

Fish out of water

 

Today we met up with some of our good guy friends and went to the local pool. You pay about $2.00 for a day of fun!

We played cards, took a few dives and laid out, laura and katie left a little early for visits and such, but i hung out for a few more hours and it was fun playing card games and just laughing with the guys. They are so funny and their ability to cheat at card games just crack me up. We played a card game where you have to spell DONKEY  in albanian the first to spell it loses. I got really close to losing but luckily I was ok in the end.

Defined cheekbones.

ha.

Defined cheekbones + Velosa Raptor eyeballs = awesome.
