A Week of Firsts.

Hey everyone, this Creighton Arrington blogging. Well it's the first full of day camp and everything is just awesome. I really and truly am grateful for being able to get this chance to be here in Jamaica with the teen ministry. I really miss my family and I wish they were here with me right now enjoying the trip with me, however, there are other important things I have to worry about; the better word I guess is not worried but concerned about. What I mean is that this is the first time that I've ever been a counselor. Another first is that I've never been out of the country and even more I've never flown before. Going in order so far, counseling is great, the kids I have is fun and they seem to listen, follow the majority of the directions they're given; we have plenty of days to work on that. Being out of the country is definitely a different experience. However the flying, is certainly something I did not enjoy; I liked the second flight from Miami to Kingston more than the first mainly because it was night time by then, so I could not see anything out the windows on either side, and I got a pair of headphones from one of my friends so I could watch the inflight entertainment. Another first was that I was the first one in the group to get sick, I had a nasty stomach ache, but I'm fine now after throwing up last night; I got sick mainly because I was really dehydrated and I think one of the sauces I had yesterday, which tasted good to me, did not agree with my stomach. Finally, the last two firsts for this week, so far, is that my boys and I had our first challenge and dominated, and also this is the first time I have ever blogged. Hope everything is still fine over in the states and in a way I can't wait to get home, but I really don't want to leave. I will try to blog latter, bye.
