How I did it
How to get a new Computer
It took me
3 months
It made me
Ecstatic

How I did it: So my comission check came in yesterday, enough to finally buy a new computer. I was going to get one on the best buy website, since they had a brand new Toshiba for 379, but I wouldn't get it by Monday when the libraries are closed (MLK day). So out of the blue I decided to look on craigslist and I found an even nicer one: A Dell, 2 years old, Windows XP, Microsoft office 2007, and virusprotection already installed--for even less!

How to make a difference
It took me

Several staff members have left their marks on the camp by painting their names on the art barn floor. I was one of them. My campers and other staff are going to see this in the future and remember me. When my campers come back as staff they'll see it and I can imagine them telling their campers about the fun they had with their counselor Epcot. Read how I did it…
