The Theme of My Life??

So yesterday I drove up to Maine because the summer camp I worked at for 7 summers of my life celebrated it's 50th year with a camp reunion.  I was excited to see people and walk around my old home away from home.  This was probably equally as life changing as ENC--in some ways even more so.  I'm not going to lie...and this is going to make me wicked cheesy but...when I drove into the town where it's located I started to cry a little.  Lame I know!  When I finally got to the camp I shut the car off and just took some deep breaths to calm my racing heart.  I felt like I had come home.  

The reunion was great, I walked all around camp remembering funny and sad things, talked to campers and wondered how I could have given that much energy all the time for 8 weeks every year, saw some ENCers who were working and caught up with old friends.  Everyone was married, most had kids and their first question for me was, "So are you seeing anyone?"  They all wondered why I wasn't married with children.  I'm the same age as all of them but apparently way behind the curve.  So I've been thinking about singles and marrieds for a few days now and here I am face to face with it.  I have been very fortunate to be blessed with married friends who know me and love me and I never feel judged or weird.  But when I run in to people I haven't seen in years it's almost uncomfortable to talk about my singleness.  Is it too late to rent a date for my college reunion?  Like in the Wedding Date?  Where does one even look for that??

Transition...

So for the longest time ever I used to blog on xanga but then that got old and blogger seems to be the new place to go so here I am. I have no idea what to do with my old blog now. There are some posts that I really really liked, do I copy and paste them here, do I save them to a disk--does anyone save to a disk anymore??? This is something I will have to ponder for a while.

In other news it's almost time for my fifth year college reunion and I am really working hard to make sure people come. It's been this weird mix of responses. Those with families are really gung ho for going. They are planning on it and even willing to help out. The people who are still single are much more apprehensive. I've even noticed the classmates with children are even more excited than the married couples who are just married.

I've talked with some of my single classmates and there is this feeling of what could I bring to the discussion. They feel as though they are not nearly as successful since they aren't married with children. These are people who have great and interesting jobs, traveled the world, gotten masters, working on ph.ds, and have just had amazing life experiences since leaving college but still they feel inadequate standing next to the family man or woman.

I graduated from a small, Christian college. I'm curious if this is something seen at larger or non Christian schools. And should I be nervous? Not only am I not married with children but I never even left the college. But I'm happy with my life and my experiences. I just need to keep repeating that I guess.
