Summer 2023 ( long story )
In may summer 2023 , I embarked on an journey to work at an summer camp in the USA. Little did I know , it would be hardest summer of my life. I remembered I would cry an lot , I worked 18 hours an day on average , if the night were really challenging I would work longer. There were this guy , who were my age. He were one of the camp directors. He became like an older brother to me. Despite us being the same age. He would make me special omlets for breakfast with chopped up fruit on the side, nobody else got one but me. They all had toast or baccon. Every time I were upset , no matter how big or small , he would always be there for me and make me laugh. I didnt have to approuch him first. He always came to me. He always knew when I were upset. No matter how big or small or stupid , he always listened to me vent and offered the best advice. I remembered him giving me an ride on his golf cart to the staff cabin so I didnt have to walk alone in the dark 🥺 He never lost his patience with me. When one of the other directors gave me an hard morning , he came up to me straight away as soon as he spotted me crying , he sorted them out for me and said he would slap him around the head. He always knew how to make me laugh. He let all my mistakes I made pass and never made me feel bad for them. I remember that night I handed in incident reports into the office , he called me to sit down and couldnt stop telling me how proud he were of me. He gave me an above and beyond award along with an dunkin donut gift card. He told me stories from back in his camp days to help me feel better for my mistakes. He never told me off for being slightly late. He always took my side every time I had any problems with another counsolor. He always told me that I were doing an amazing job , the only problem I had were that im way too hard on myself. It were his final year working at camp. I felt extremely greatful for everything he did for me. I miss him already. I hope one day we meet again. I hope I make him really proud of me. Thank you for making my summer amazing.
