The summer between my sophomore and junior years of college, I got asked to be a "volunteer" counselor for my old high school's band camp. Basically I got $150 to spend a week of August in beautiful Interlochen, MI with a bunch of my high school friends (the counselor staff is always band alums, with the only rule being that you have to be a year removed from HS) being cool big siblings and sometimes giving music advice. Nerdy as it sounds, some of my best memories growing up were in the four summers I went there as a student, so getting paid to go back and basically hang out with old friends while helping kids make their own memories was far and away the most rewarding thing I've done, at least in any sort of job. Plus getting to play drill seargent during marching drills was super-cathartic after being on the receiving end of it. I got to do it again the following summer but that first stint was definitely the better of the two.
