Awe Yea Summer Camp!

This past week was Wet and Wacky week at the youth center and I was super lucky and got to go on the field trips with all the kids! Which basically I got to go hang out, swim and tan like the coppertone kid! Yes, I Pamela, GingerFace, tanned! Shocking to most of you I know! Don't worry I'm sure it won't last long and my pastie whiteness will be back with a quickness. Any who back to what I did this past week!
Monday we went to Agacpinar, the cold water springs that we usually go to all the time. 
 Tuesday we went to Yumurtalık which is a beach that is about 25 miles from Adana. It's a Mediterranean port. The beach was all sand and no rocks it was pretty awesome. Also I've never been able to walk out into the water at a beach and not have it drop off. 



 Wednesday we went to AQUALAND!!! Which is a water park here in Adana. Nothing special, wave pool, lazy river and like 3 slides. 

Thursday we went to Kızkalesi on a boat trip! This beach was BEAUTIFUL! I didn't get any pictures while I was there because I was trying to not throw up because the guy who was driving the boat was doing a terrible job. We will probably be going next weekend or the week after and I'll be sure to get pictures then. This water was so blue and clear it was insanely beautiful! Super salty too haha.
This is a picture from google but we drove out and swam right by the castle. AWESOME!

Hooligans and Hipsters

24
I don't feel it nor do I look it. Awesome!? Not always... When you have a 11 year old girl tell  you that you look like you are 13 and then a 12 year old girl says, "No, she's at least 16, 17." Then I have to explain to them, no I work at the youth center and I am twice their age. A lot of the parents that come in to the youth center think that I am one of the kids. Well I definitely get it from my parents, neither one of them look their age. I'm sure I won't complain about this later on in life but right now while I work with teenagers it makes my job twice as hard.

It also gets old when people ask me why I've spent so much on my glasses. Funny thing, I spent so much on my glasses because I like them and because I wear them everyday! It's even funnier that AFTER I tell people that they say, "Oh so you can't see?" Sometimes I want to bonk (yes I said bonk) them right on their forehead. I usually just give them the "you're an f'n idiot" look and say yes I cannot see with out my glasses. Or I get the people that like to argue and tell me that I don't wear them everyday... LOL I'm pretty sure I would know if I wear them everyday or not...
