| A ton has been happening over here, but it's happened so fast and
furious i hardly remember any of it. I'm quitting as a coach.
August will be the last month i work at Acrosports, probably forever.
I'm thinking about working down at the YMCA or somewhere where i can
get some experience running a register and dealing with money, since i
have all the experience i will ever need working with kids. Lol,
something different. I had a really funny class yesterday...a class of
five four-year-olds. One of them was ultra shy. Another one was in abject terror, and so she cried and shivered almost the whole class. The third
one was slightly mentally retarded and spent the class repeating
everything i said out loud and not doing any of it. The last kid had
incredibly sensitive ears and randomly froze in silent agony in the middle of the room
with both hands over his ears every few minutes or so. Even warmups were strained, lol. We
turned on the music and one kid stared blankly, one kid screamed, one
kid repeated the words, and one kid froze. Sometimes work is great for
your sense of humor.

| Four more days!! Then i'm done. The final tests are on Monday, and i can't wait to get everything done and get the grades back. Classes, coaching, and training have been a crazy combination. I wake up in the dark and train, then watch the sun rise and head to class, or go home and do schoolwork and then go to work. The workload is tough, but i've made up for the grind on weekends. Saturday me and Stephen paddled Clear Creek and named a few new landmarks. There's the Chimney Tower, Coral Snake Park, Chinese Garbage Town...and best of all, The Rope Swing.
I have Water Safari fever in my bones. Just one more month. I can't
paddle, but I'm going as Abby's Accomplice, which means i get to go on
a lot of training runs to help her out with the team captaining work. I
love the river. And until then i'm planning on enjoying the month of May. It will be nice to wake up to the sunlight a little more often.
Welcome home Hannah and Jonyon!
