Camp Counselor Coyote news! Bad news :(
Please read this, it’s very important!
I have started to receive more messages from my followers- which is great! I love the messages dearly, don’t ever stop. But some of the messages are advertisements. I have a nagging feeling that because I posted the petition to save the Kentucky Girl Scout camp here, some of my followers now feel that it’s okay to advertise for their camp....

saifonasaurusbrah asked: I've gone to a YMCA Camp in Oregon for 8 years and this year I am going to be a CIT and this blog has made me laugh soo hard because its so true. This is awesome. You're awesome. My counselor had this game she would made up when we were all bored when she walked around and just yelled at us that we were winners. " You're a winner, and you're a winner. YOU'RE ALL...

Time for break stories!
Because I can. I’m going to start off with one of my very favorite break stories, and I want you guys to reblog and tell yours :). Ready?
Okay, last summer, I got really sick the first week there (potentially passed on by a camper). I spent most of my breaks curled up in Okashi (staff lounge-turned health hut) trying to sleep, when my UL wasn’t making me sit in there any other time. A...

halfadozentimes asked: Sorry if somebody has asked this before and I didn't see it, but out of curiosity, why do you use a picture of a coyote for the meme? I mean, besides the title of your blog and all, because the idea for using a coyote must have an origin. ^^ Also I really love your blog, I'm not a camp counselor -I'm too young at the moment- but I love camp and I can still relate to most of them.

Song Time: The Princess Pat
This is a repeat-and-answer song!
The Princess Pat lived in a tree. She sailed across the seven seas! She sailed across the channel too and she took with her a rickabamboo!
Now Captain Jack had a mighty fine crew. They sailed across the channel too! But his ship sank and yours will, too if you don’t take A rickabamboo!
Now Princess Pat saw Captain Jack. She reeled him in and brought him...

Hey! I’m from Kentucky, and one of the Girl Scout camps nearby could potentially be harmed by some Western Kentucky Minerals surface mining. Could you please post this link to our petition and ask people to sign it? We’re trying to save our camp!...

Camp Counselor Coyote news! Well, sort of.
I just wanted to explain those long stretches of absences that’ve occurred and explain when and why more may happen.
I’ve recently dropped one medication and increased the dosage for another (don’t worry, I’m not insane!), and the new, higher dosage of this much stronger medication makes me mega tired all the time. If I’m not updating for days or even a week or so,...

Drink lots of Water
Drink lots of Water
I miss camp oh so very much, and was sad that I had to do the whole real world thing. I could not have asked for more wonderful campers, even in those moments where I wanted to dunk them in the lake in frustration. I wrote this poem with my co-CIT director my last summer as a well wish for the CITs and hopefully some good advice.
Water To the CITs of 2010, drink lots of...

OH HAY THERE.
Sorry, can’t use the ask box from my phone. This is penguin from St Albans. I totally miss camp a lot. Unfortunately I’m old and have to take a job that kind of sort of has a paycheck. I may try to come to camp for a week to two like I did last year. One of my favorite camp sayings is “YOU’RE FINE, YOU LIKE IT.” When a camper is whining. Also, listening to campers...

NO WAY.
I have one hundred followers now and I can’t express how much I love each and every one of you individually. It really warms my heart, because being a camp counselor is so special to me and to all of you and to share this love around is fantastic.
<3 Camp on, guys.

cartophilist asked: You are the sun that makes a rainbow out of rain. You keep the dream alive to try and try again. You are the love that stays when good friends have to leave. I do believe in you, I believe. (What's your fruit camp name?)
peacel0vemusic asked: What do you think about the Girl Scout cookie boycott that's currently going on?
kings-at-heart asked: I notice you put Magic at the end of personal posts. Is your name Magic or is it just the name you're using for this tumblr? :P

Camp Counselor Coyote news! SOPA/PIPA!
You may have noticed most websites blacking themselves out as part of the internet-wide activist movement against internet censorship. Wikipedia has closed down, Google has blacked out their name, Reddit is down as well as many Tumblr blogs.
Just for today, Camp Counselor Coyote is blacked out as a show of solidarity for others in the cause. But please don’t stop visiting the page today!...
kings-at-heart asked: p.s. i would like to reblog everything you post. however then it would be your blog not my blog :P you've seriously made my day.

kings-at-heart asked: My friend told me about this meme site. You are possibly my favorite person in the whole world. On every meme I'm like 'That right there is true life.' Keep up the good work. I hope you enjoy being a counselor as much as I have over the past couple years :)
