" Staff tryouts were today for UCA! And to my surprise, I wasn&amp;#039;t as nervous as I thought I would be. I was so excited to see my staff family - I haven&amp;#039;t seen them since camps ended last August!   For staff, you have to try out every year until your fourth year, so I definitely have to stay in shape! I started practicing about a week ago with my friend Jackie, who&amp;#039;s also on staff, and let&amp;#039;s just say that my body is still sore from that workout. It doesn&amp;#039;t help that I&amp;#039;m sick, because every time I try to cough, my muscles won&amp;#039;t let me. I had so much fun with everyone at tryouts though! It&amp;#039;s always good to get involved with something you love (it&amp;#039;s not too bad when it&amp;#039;s your job, either!) It&amp;#039;s a way that I can have fun with the campers and my fellow staff members, but still be professional at the same time. The kids LOVE having an awesome camp, and it makes me feel good when we give it to them. There&amp;#039;s no better reason to love your job.  You&amp;#039;ve probably already figured out that I made staff for my second year in a row, which makes me a rookie no longer! Having experience under the belt is a good thing, and I learn more every camp! I&amp;#039;m so excited to start my summer! "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
