Day 9 was a very beautiful and chill day here at Camp Myrtlewood. I started the morning doing wakeup call as that’s one of my main responsibilities as Logistics Angel, then headed to breakfast in the field with and Elijah, followed by check in and morning meeting (which was extra special because it was Will […]
Lily: Seeing Seen & Angel Walk/Campfire Circle, Camp Myrtlewood (Day 8)
I woke up in the field, cocooned in my blankets. to wake up call singing, I peek over and wave to friends across the field. Then head to my cabin to put away my stuff and brush my teeth. Breakfast was pancakes (they were so fucking good omg I love camp) I’m still recovering from […]
Kaneya: Trust Circle, Camp Myrtlewood (Day 7)
I woke up around 6:30am getting around 8 hours of sleep and feeling a lot less sick than I had been. After advisee, I went to Elaina’s stuffed animal meet up and introduced everyone to the future US president Baby Cat. I decided to take a break from workshops to call my little sister, but […]

Also camp introduced me to my ex who […]
Caitlin: Sleep-in Day & Concert, Camp Myrtlewood (Day 4)

Rosa: Bonding Night, Camp Myrtlewood (Day 3)
Today was bonding night and it was really fun! I was really nervous about it earlier in the day because it’s my first year. So I’ve never been to Bonding Night before and I heard that there is a lot of hugging. I’m not really a person who likes hugging people other than close friends. […]
Carmilla.: Variety Show Night #1, Camp Myrtlewood (Day 2)
I woke up right before the rickrolling started. I appreciate the tradition but, I’m still glad to already be awake when it starts. I got on the swings as the rickrollers were about to reach the field. Breakfast was very calm (once I got outside of the dining hall). It’s always nice to see my […]
Beck: Camp Myrtlewood (Day 1)
This morning I woke up bright and early (and quite cold) in my tent. While campers and staff slept in and enjoyed their first morning all together at camp over breakfast, meetings, and advisee groups, I dug an energy drink out of the snack bag in Orion’s car and drove the two hours to Eugene. […]
