YQ RECOVERY DAY

Ok. So today has been my recovery day and I don't think that it counts if you're sick. But if I wasn't sick I would definitely need recovering anyways. YQ took everything out of me. And I know that a lot of people worked harder than I did - still feel bad for Chad - and I know that a lot of people worked longer hours than I did - still think that Steve was absolutely nuts - but I was just physically limited this weekend. Having to work while being sick is definitely not fun. But here's the thing. I don't understand why the students really need a recovery day after this weekend. I understand why anyone involved in any working or volunteering capacity would need a day to recover. They work their fingers to the bone, stay up for an insane amount of hours and generally just put all their available energy into making this weekend go smoothly. But the students, not to be offensive, but the students who do nothing but enjoy the weekend really don't need a day to recover from it. Why would they? It's their own stupid fault if they decide to stay up all weekend just to say that they did. It's not like they're staying up late and then having to wake up early because they need to go back into work. No, it's just a part of enjoying YQ. Why should they need to recover from enjoyment? It just doesn't make much sense. Because once the main session on Sunday is over, they already have most of an entire day left in order to "recover." Monday is just a bonus for them because the people who run the school need a day to recover too. Somehow it seems just a little off balanced. But then that's life isn't it.
