I had to do this as a project so I thought heck I might as well post it here for you all to see. Note that I am a sixth grader so give me some slack on grammar and Enjoy!
Ok you might think six days and nights away from parents with your friends is fun? Try mine because six days at camp with three friends and a sister is going to be something. Not bad but not good either. Oh forget it, just read and fine out for yourself.
Day One out of Six
The first day is going to be all nice and pretty right? Nope, not with my friends and my nine year old sister. Breakfast isn’t hard, right? Cook some eggs and get out some juice and bread. That’s if you didn’t have someone behind you the entire time. My sister is special in my family’s case. Yeah right, she can’t keep her mouth zipped for ten small seconds. So think about it and do this; five people each want two eggs, a piece of toast, and some juice. The eggs take five minutes each. Five multiplied by five equals twenty-five. Toast takes another ten. Thirty-five, get the juice ready in about five. So the grand total is forty minutes that she’s behind me yapping her head off. Now that’s not even the worst of it. She also got me up at five o’clock. You know how tired I am at this moment? I swear this can’t get any worse but I have such bad luck it’s like this all week.
Don’t you think swimming is fine? No one is going to drown with five lifeguards at the pool or crack their skull on the high dive board. Well something else happens. You think you can’t break anything going into the deep end. Well my friend Echo proved me wrong. She went off the end and broke her arm somehow. But her being my best friend, she stayed but won’t be going into the water anytime soon. But I’m not done yet; Jeremy, my nice friend did something worse. You know what a klutzy boy and a high jump equals? Well, it equals a black eye and pain killers. You know what I’m surprised about? That only two things have happened so far, but the week is going to get worse.
Night One out of Six
I love the dawn of night and I have always been a night owl. I would stay up until midnight or longer. Right now the sounds are just wonderful except one; Charlie, she is nice and all but she can’t go to sleep without music. I have to listen to her loud, annoying IPod for the rest of the night. At this point I’m tempted to throw it in the lake at camp Pretty Pond or Pretty Puddle.
Day Two out of Six
Today breakfast went like this; you know how sometimes we like to eat with our hands when you don’t care if it’s finger food or not? Jo, Charlie, Echo, Jeremy, Deanna, and I do it with a baked breakfast potato. The Girl Scout version is when you cook the potato in tin foil and after that cooks, you crack an egg in it along with some cheese and bacon while allowing all that to cook together into a great breakfast. We all tried that and that was a mistake. Charlie dropped it on herself and ended up taking another cold shower. Jo had a spasm attack and she got it everywhere and as of now cleaning her messy tent. Echo did just the opposite and sadly has to help pick up every little part of her potato off the ground. Jeremy, thanks to my sister has a face full of potato. Deanna and I have been left only with messy fingers and a mess to help clean up.
Arts and Crafts aren’t much of a mess. But with my friends it is. If you haven’t noticed that everything we do ends up as a wreck. Now you need to know one thing about Jo to understand this. When Jo eats candy and does anything else it ends up a complete disaster. Well, for us in an Arts and Craft tent, with everything from paper, scissors, glue, glitter, and anything else you can find in an arts and craft store. You can see what happens with my unfocused and hyped up little sister can do. Right then, she had glue and glitter, the two messiest things that were in the tent. She ran around like a little hyped up squirrel or maybe like that little rabbit I saw. I don’t know how, but she got glue and glitter on everything but herself. The bad thing was that the showers where going to be freezing. Not if you did what we did.
In the daytime the water is freezing because everyone takes their showers then because it’s winter so it’s too cold to do at night. You see we stayed up till twelve o’clock. Going out of our tents and getting in the bathroom. The bathroom at camp Pretty Pond is huge and it has heaters and because it’s freezing outside we can stay in here with blankets and pillows. The people outside are freezing to death; I feel bad for them.
Night Two out of Six
Now I want to throw that IPod at the alligator. Now you might want to ask what alligator. Now someone give me earphones or I’m going to hurt something. Maybe I can get a blow horn and see if Charlie likes it.
Day Three out of Six
You won’t believe what happened at breakfast today. I mean you can’t imagine what happened. You remember the boy who got a black eye and needed pain killers? He and a rabbit went at it for a plate of food. The rabbit was maybe two feet high and five pounds at the most. The rabbit was jumping for the plate of food and was able to pull it into its little home, not far from the table. Jeremy was a little slow and lost his breakfast to a small rabbit in this round. In my opinion, I think it’s going to come back.
After dealing with the pancake problem, I decided to name the rabbit Pancake. We went to the lake today. Camp Pretty Pond has an alligator, that’s been there forever. Some think it’s a problem, but the alligator is just part of the wonderful camp. It hasn’t tried to eat or hurt anyone, so it’s harmless. Today we saw the alligator, it’s really big, and I mean bigger than the last time I saw it. I could easily say it’s around twelve feet and maybe two to three hundred pounds. Today the alligator did the most surprising thing ever! It did not move an inch. I’m surprised because most of the time it will go back into the water or onto the little island in the center of the pond. Now, it was in the water maybe ten feet away at the most. Now that was scary, but fun at the same time. Don’t ask me how, but I hope something like this will happen again.
Night Three out of Six
I hate iPods as of now and a new problem has started. You know my friend Deanna that I mentioned once or twice before. She’s gotten the song “Country Boy” stuck in her head so when she sleeps, she sings the song that’s playing on the iPod. Now I’m really going to throw her and the iPod in the lake.
Day Four out of Six
Breakfast was like yesterday, but from the looks of it the rabbit was getting fatter. Instead of being five pounds it might have gone to around nine or ten pounds.
Now, its time to go to lunch. The camp say’s because of our age we can make only one meal. Breakfast for me is the easiest to make. So for lunch and dinner we have to walk to the big cafeteria. Walking there is the farthest place from us. There are also two paths, the rocky path, and the cement path. It’s a problem because most people can’t remember the route. My friends are some of those people. I don’t know how they can’t remember the route, but I wasn’t there to help them. It ended with me coming to the pool seeing them lost as they can get while having to make yet another meal since everyone had their lunches a few hours ago.
Night Four out of Six
I want to hurt someone because of the loud iPod. I need someone to help me. Whoever is reading this story please give me an ear plugs or a hammer.
Day Five out of Six
Return of Pancake! The rabbit came back and my goodness it got from nine to fifteen pounds. I’m really surprised the food and the weight haven’t killed it yet.
Right now my problems are getting worse. Today is just crazy and insane in my opinion. You’ve seen those small two seated boats? Today we were using them on the lake today. We got in pairs that went like this, Cassidy and Deanna, Jeremy and Echo, and lastly Jo and Charlie. There’s a bunch of boats here and we got, nine, twelve, and lucky number seven. At least I hope so and maybe the others might if they thought about it for a while. We had the lake also to ourselves for the rest of the day. It was all good till someone stared heading toward a tree in the lake. When that happened we all made a dash to stop it or get them in another boat. Unfortunately for us the lake had other ideas and got us stuck in a little thing of plants. The next thing, as you have guess ended up being those people flipping because they ran into the tree. Those unlucky people where Deanna and myself. We ended up being soaked.
Night Five out of Six
I really want to set Charlie’s tent on fire along with Deanna’s. I can’t wait till tomorrow and finally get away from all of this havoc and maybe get a decent nights rest, there’s also the possibly of me sneaking some stuff at my house and/or playing videos twenty-four seven till I pass out from no sleep.
Day Six out of Six
Last day for everyone here. That rabbit is so fat now it doesn’t fit in its hole, so we gave him to the camp leader and she is going to keep it since it’s so fond of people.
In the afternoon we get picked up but not without some fun. We went down to the campfire pit before to long making burnt marshmallows and jokes about them. Then the people that ran the camp got us as our parents came. I guess this week ended not being so bad. I hope I get to see everybody again next year.
I had to do this as a project so I thought heck I might as well post it here for you all to see. Note that I am a sixth grader so give me some slack on grammar and Enjoy!
