The Truth

Camp is over. This is the morning after the last day and i'm watching a drama while telling you my favourite (and less favourite) memories.

Day 1

  • Chatted with JG on the bus. Swapped some embarrasing moments. Talked about how boobs (and the brown blob on top of it) changes colour and shape according to surroundings. Now that I think about it, boobs are kinda like chameleons.
  • Wasted the whole morning dramatically sorted out camp groups. Many people in the grade cried :( It was hard to do cabins so that everyone got what they wanted.
  • Sport science was actually really fun because we played a lot of games. There was this one where you had to meet eyes with someone in a circle in 5 seconds. I got out the first round.
  • Fitness tests = 0 in flexibility. I'm very unflexible. When I was young I did ballet and that's the first thing the teacher told me. It was also the last thing she told me because i quit 1 week later.
  • Food wasn't very good on the first day :(
  • Night activity was pretty fun. Everyone went in their friendship groups and played games together like catwalking as twins, duo dancing and complimenting the teachers. Felt really sorry for my friend Vicki because she did two of the most embarrasing things. But she was really good at it.
  • After that we went back to the cabins and got ready 'for bed'. But actually we just made the place as messy as my garage and started playing games and two of my friends started singing Disney songs and I was pretty sad I couldn't join in. But I found it so cool they knew every single word.
  • Afterwards me and two friends had a deep and meaningful conversation while the others continued playing 'Twister'.We slept a little later than we were supposed to. Actually, a lot later than we were supposed to.
The first day was alright. If you ask me 'was it fun?' I wouldn't know what to reply. It wasn't as fun as I expected it to be and the day was filled with drama and the night filled with confessions. Some of my friends got hurt from misunderstandings and though I apologised, I still don't know if they understand. With a group of 10 people, it is unavoidable that someone gets left out and that caused some problems.When I thought about those problems while listening to some really sad songs, a few tears dropped but I had to wipe them away quickly so no one would notice.

But overall it was ok. At night when we had a 'truth talk', I said some things I have been meaning to say for a while and it felt good to let people know what you really think. I also learnt some things i could change to make myself a better person. I like it when people tell me what's wrong with me. That way I know they want me to be better which means they care about me. I agree with JL that JG is really wise. She knows a lot of things but doesn't blab anything out like me. I think I should be more like that.

Will write about Day 2 and 3 later. They were much funner :) But now I have to head out for a friend's birthday party. We are watching the Hunger Games!
