I’m No Longer on a Boat, but My Boys are the Mighty Ducks….

So, I wanted to start out this entry with the lyrics to “I’m on a Boat” as rewritten by myself and Darren Shuster.  We are making a music video so I thought yall might want to see the lyrics and all that jazz.  Hope you enjoy:

(T-Pain)
(Campers) Aww Snap!!!!
Get your towels ready, it’s about to go down. (Campers Yeahhhh!)
Everybody in the house get yo sunscreen on. (Campers Yeahhhh!)
But stay on your camp-loving toes.
We’re doing this let’s go!

Chorus
I’m on a boat (I’m on a boat)
I’m on a boat (I’m on a boat)
Everybody look at me cause I’m sailing on a boat (sailing on a boat)
I’m on a boat (I’m on a boat)
I’m on a boat
Take a good hard look at the friendship boat (Boat, Yeahhhh!)

I’m on a boat take good hard look at me
Straight flowing on a boat on the deep blue sea (Yeahhhh!)
Cruising 1 knot, wind whipping out my Camp Chai shirt
You can’t stop because I’m a counselor on a boat

Take a picture, Ha, (Ha), I’m on a boat Das (Das)
We’re drinking water champ because it’s so good (Good)
I got my swim trunks and my flippie-floppies (flippie-floppies)
I’m flipping latkes, you in the office straight flipping copies

I’m riding on a noodle, doing flips and such
The pool splashing getting everybody all wet (Ohhh!!!)
But this ain’t SeaWorld, it’s as real as camp gets (Yeahhh!!!)
I’m on a boat campers don’t you ever forget

I’m on a boat and it’s going slow and…
I got a nautical theme, pass me that suntan (Suntan!)
I’m the king of the world on a boat like Leo
If you’re on the shore, than you’re sure not me-oh! (Me-Oh!)
Who are you? This boat is real!!!

Forget land, I’m on a boat Camp-Chai-oh! (Camp-Chai-oh!)
Forget cars, I ride boats Camp Chai oh! (Camp-Chai-oh!)
I’m on the deck with my boys, Camp-Chai-oh (Yeahhhh!!!!)
We have no engine today, Camp-Chai-oh!

Hey ma, if you could see me now (see me now)
Arms spread wide on the starboard bow (starboard bow)
Gonna fly this boat to the moon somehow (moon somehow)
Like Kobe Bryant, anything is possible!!!!!!!!!!!

(T-Pain)

Yeah, never thought I’d be on a boat
It’s a big blue watery road (Yeahhh!)
Poseidon~!! Look at me, oh! (All hands on deck)
Never thought I’d see the day
When a big boat coming my way
Believe me when I say, I saw a mermaid!!!!

(Chorus)

(T-Pain)
Whoahhh
Ca-Ca- Campers, Campers
Yeah, yeah, yeahhhhh!

So Aladdin, is on Disney and it reminds me of summers when I was a little kid in the opposite position of myself (a camper, not a camp counselor).  Today at camp was carnival day which was pretty interesting.  I enjoyed myself and I am pretty sure that my campers enjoyed it about 10 times as much as I did.

I am starting to think about my future more and more everyday.  What does my future hold for me?  Will I be successful?  Will I go to graduate school.  So many questions are being hurled in my direction that it is a bit insane.  My head is a bit on the busy side, but at the same time, I don’t feel like answering any of them.  I am thinking about careers, families, weddings, children, and all of that and it is starting to freak me out a bit so I am trying to sort of divert my attention to other things.

My dad has continued to send out resumes to jobs all over the place.  It is sort of funny, because whenever dad isn’t working, our family eats quite well.

Anyways, that’s all I got for today.
