Lindsay Morlock

Hey everyone! This is so crazy--I have never ever posted a blog on the internet before, so this is my first attempt at it. My only hope then is that people don't get bored with me too quickly and stop reading right now.

Interested yet? Cool! Well, I'm Lindsay...also known as Linzo to many people around camp. This will be my 4th summer on staff, and I'll be running the circus up at LOWBC (Lake of the Woods Bible Camp) for the five weeks we have campers! That means each and every one of you will get to spend one GLORIOUS week with me up there! I'm totally down with Harry Potter July, Derek.

I just graduated from Concordia College with a degree in Chemistry Education. I like chemistry and I like teaching so I thought that was the perfect major for me! I'm currently looking for jobs in the St. Paul area, since that's where I'll be living after August 17th. That's the day I'm getting married. Yes, married. I'm super excited, and it'll definitely be a busy summer getting ready for that.

Some of my interests: mornings, playing cards, coffee, giving blood, desserts, star gazing, camp outs, conquering the challenge course, which I hope to do more of this summer, loving LOWBC, getting to know all of you this summer, going to baseball games, traveling, and reading.

It's going to be a great summer! Get pumped! And don't swim with the alligators in Lake Morgan.

Nels Hunstad...

So I'm having a hard time starting this thing out.. I mean. do I write like "Hey all" or do I give a big howdy? Like.. I could possibly start off with something like "Greetings Earthlings". or even one very loud and long HEYYYYYYY. Of course, I could always just start talking about myself and see if that works. But. An introduction of sorts is sort of necessary at this juncture. I mean, chances are we haven't met. In fact I don't know 10 out of the 26 people posted on the pictures page, and I know they don't know me.. or I hope. Cuz that's weird.

anyway.. I digress...

So. I'm Nels Hunstad, as a spoonerism, that's Hels Nunstad. Which, oddly, is also my name on facebook. So look me up. When I write on blogs like this I tend to use periods A LOT. period. but generally I consider myself a good writer, and that's mostly just because I love it. I'm decent at math, but I'm no Tom.. and I really like films. Which is why I'll be the Technology Director this summer.

Sure, I could have taken the summer off to actually create some of the projects I've been working on.. But let's be real. Camp is the place to be in the summer and I couldn't be happier with my decision.

I really like being active and playing sports whenever I get the chance. I love, love, love the outdoors (yes, 3 times). But at the same time, I'm a total computer and videogame nerd. On the computer I'm into design, writing, and looking at pointless websites. Video games feed my "super-competitive" spirit.

Speaking of competition. I come from MOORHEAD. the Hometown of 7 staffers. and part time residence of at least 13. So what? I'm not that unique, but at least I can admit it... Anyway. Moorhead is a lovely town. But one fun fact about me is that I spent the first 2 years of my life living at camp. No really. My dad was the director back in the late 80's and yes, he did have a huge huge mullet. So I lived in cabin Grace, for the summers and in Menagha during the winter. For this reason, I am able to literally call Camp Emmaus home, and hopefully after the summer all you newbs will be able to too. For the past two years I attended Augsburg College in Moneyapolis, but at this juncture in my life it seems that I will not be returning in the fall. My hope is to take the year off, live in Moorhead, make some money, and then ship out for film school in Vancouver. That's in Canada eh. In other news..

Some people call me a space cowboy.

but that's another story for another time.

My family and friends are a huge part of my life. Instead of explaning my family to you. I'll just let you take a look at the picture and you'll get the idea. Need me to spell it out? They're C-R-A-Z-Y. Which for some reason reminds of Britney Spears, and that brings me to my next point..

One huge thing about me is MUSIC. I love music. The words, rhythyms, melodies, whatever. Chances are if some sort of song is on I will be singing along. If it bugs you, just let me know, and I'll be sure to sing louder. No really, I'll stop if you ask. In reality. I don't like Britney Spears, or her music, but I do know all the words. Also, I'm not funny, sad, or mad. Again, refer to the picture of my family and you'll see that I have no emotion, so be prepared to deal with that.


So.. blogs are fun. Right? No matter what you write. People read it.

like that.

Anyway, I'm excited for the summer of love. err. Camp. to begin. and I'm hoping you are too.

Much love,

Hels.

(oh and for those random ladies who just happen to come along. I'm single, so let's mingle.)

Edit: I take back the math thing.. if you know why. well sweet.. Cookie? Parade? whatever.
