smells like bacon

The past couple of weeks have been kind of fun. I went kayaking for the first time, yea I just turned 28 and I've never been kayaking until last week. First time for everything. We saw some huge manatees right below our kayaks! Am I spelling kayak right? Anyway, they were so beautiful, I wish I had a waterproof camera, ugh. Some of the guys I was with got out of their boats and swam with the manatees a little bit, even pet them. They are so huge yet so gentle, the manatees that is.

I've been working at a tennis camp the past couple of weeks. Last week was a little rough. I had middle school boys and all they wanted to do was complain and whine. This week has been a lot better though. These kids are interesting. One girl is sooo hyper and screams a lot. She almost busted my eardrum the other day. She also is into anime and brought me this book to show me that she had been reading. I can't remember what it was called, Antique bookshelf or something? The same day she came up to me and was trying to hide behind me because they were all playing hide and go seek after camp and she told me I smelled like bacon. I told her I like to bathe in bacon everyday so that was probably why. THe same day ANother girl in my group pipes up on the way to lunch and says really loudly, "I just caught a dragonfly with my armpit." Kids are so weird.....
