0mg...

This girl is a mess... I cannot believe the nerve of some kids.

So this girl is talkin' on her cell phone... right after we have a meeting with the whole camp and tell them that they can't talk on their phones all the time (it has gotten to the point where no one does anything because all they do is talk on the phone all the time). Katie calls her over and tells her to get off the phone... well, this girl decides to walk over to Katie while STILL on the phone and tell the person on the other end, "It's my counselor. She is telling me to get off the phone." She rolls her eyes and starts to get an attitude and just act plain disrespectful at this.

Well, I don't know all of what transpired before I saw her get extremely out of line with Katie and Bryn, but I decided to intervene when she stormed away mumbling things under her breath and sucking her teeth. I called her back and asked her what her problem was... and honestly, I can't tell y'all all of what I said. Anyone that knows me knows that I have a hard time SAYING what I really feel and being forceful when I need to be. All I know is that some of my mom came out in me and I put her in her place real well. She was mad as fire. I said something to the effect of, "You need to show some respect and not talk to us with such an attitude... Quit sucking your teeth and rolling your eyes... If you have a problem, we can talk about it." Well, nothing seemed to be working... she just kept getting more and more upset. Finally, I said, "You know what? Just go away, I can't talk to you right now." I said this motioning with my hand in an attempt to let her cool off as well as allow myself to cool off. Well, she took this COMPLETELY wrong.

She was SOOOOOO incredibly angry. No, she was MAD (on one of Monday night's reruns of The Cosby Show, Claire Huxtable said that humans get angry but animals get mad--and this girl was MAD). Nichole tried to calm her down, but she was all like, "He can't just shoo me away like that. I ain't no dog. I ain't no fly. I ain't nothin'!" Well, the girl has a point... you are a nothin' if you get a ridiculous attitude like that and you are even more a nothin' if you use bad grammar like that.

But seriously... this girl is mad as FIYA at me... and obviously dumb.
