CAMP IS FUN

Helllooo lovely people!
i am home from camp.
i really should be sleeping at this point consider it's one in the morning, and i've been dead tired all week. buttt i'll just quick update on the strange happenings of camp.
uh sunday:
arrived at camp.
put stuff in cabin.
it rains.
get stuff prepared to meet junior staff.
it continues to DOWNPOUR.
meet junior staff.
eat dinner.
talk to people...
do some other stuff that i forget and is probably not important.
eventually go to cabin to shower and sleep.
MONDAY:
i don't remember if monday or tuesday was unity day but one of those days we were in small teams and rotated and joined other small teams for different events.
climbed GOLIATH. which is the climbing area. there is a rock wall you can climb up, a cargo net and a zip line with a bunch of other things. someday i'll take a picture.
we also played initiative games, and some other things. it was cool.
also awkward.
for the one thing i had to sit on some guys shoulders.
it was awkward because he makes me feel uncomfortable...because he is probably the nicest person at camp.
it's ridiculous. he's always like going out of his way to say hello.
i know it's weird that it makes me uncomfortable but it does.
oh yeah and that was def monday.
also there are two guys who around my age.
we have to call everyone MR. or Miss. unless they are married in which case we call them UNCLE OR AUNT. this is mostly for the campers but it's very strange, at least for me
uh i made some friends with the junior staff :) very nice girls.
learned alot about camp, and the Bible.
and well i must say i actually enjoy camp :)
i'm kind of excited for it!
uh anyways
TUESDAY:
learned some things.
did stuff.
i know that's helpful but i honestly don't remember what we did it all blends together...
WEDNESDAY.
had breakfast duty.
it wasn't too bad.
talked to the one guy who is my age.
it was awkward.
probably because i made it awkward, especially when he asked me where i go to school. that one always makes me be like ..why do you want to know.
went to the craft room to organize things!
one of the guys my age randomly picked flowers and was like WHO SHOULD I GIVE THESE TOOOO! while yelling at his friend when we were all walking the one time. then he gave me one, and i was like uh thanks. haha. it was interesting and that was my first flower EVER RECEIVED FROM A GUY. GASP! i know.
i laughed a lot on the inside.
then i pressed inside my notebook so the flower is in there now.
haha
and then lunch time came around and i was downstairs in the craft room (the dining hall is on the other side of the camp and the people doing bible lessons and camp fire talks were preparing them. well basically senior staff was in the stone house, which the craft room is in the basement of the stone house, and i'm senior staff...haha)
and they left me there. all of them. they didnt' even tell me it was lunch. so you know whatevs.
then it was lunch time
we did ARCHERY AND RIFLERY afterwards! YYYAAAAAYYYYYY
uh i think we had an actual campfire that day, and sang songs.
did a TOUGH QUESTIONS talk that night. it was awesome
THURSDAY
had breakfast duty AGAIN.
did some fun activities.
then we played...CAPTURE THE FLAG.
it was umm interesting. they have different rules for campers which is why we did it, so that we could learn the rules.
so they did team choosing like you do in high school with two captains and picking people off the sides!
good news I WAS NOT LAST! woo.
bad news .. while we were playing i def tripped in a hole while chasing someone and uh fell over. AND later the guy who i was chasing at that time asked me if i tripped while chasing him. i laughed and was like um yeah.
he now thinks i'm an idiot but you know whatever.
also the guy who picked me on his team was the guy who gave me the flower.
again it made me laugh hysterically. well on the inside.
he probably thought i seemed athletic. then our team was strategizing and he was like "can you run?" and i was like hahah...well i CAN run, but i don't necessarily enjoy it.
that's the moment he realized he made a bad decision having me on his team. haha
oh well.
our team still won! woot woot.
then we had lunch
then freee timeeee
we went swimming
although it was kind of cold but it was nice!
then last night we had a camp out
girls at their fort and boys at theirs.
it was sweet.
we made s'mores and talked about guy-girl relationships at camp.
hilarity.
we aren't allowed to date until camp is over.
which i think is splendid, it's better for the campers and everyone else that way :)
then we hung out around the campfire. then went to the fort which is near the fire so all the ashes floated in the air and basically you ate them while you slept, since the fort is sort of like a tree house...
anyways me and two of the junior staff talked until like one.
then everyone woke up at like 7:30 ate breakfast, cleaned up, then we went back to the cabin, and showered. well they opened up all the girls cabins and everyone showered at different places it was awesome. we also beat the guys back to camp. by like an hour. kind of ridiculous
OH MAN! I almost forgot, we all decided while at the camp out to not look at the guys, well make eye contact with them when we first saw them the next day. so all the girls sat together and all the guys looked hilariously confused. it was awesome. i'm pretty sure they still have no idea what happened.
it was great! ahhaha
then yesterday (well friday...)
we cleaned cabins to prepare for the campers
and then had lunch then came home.
i did laundry.
then went to work from 6:30 until 11:30
and now i need sleep
since i leave for school tomorrow for peer mentor training week.
SO INTENSE.
i also have like twenty bug bites on my legs.
okay more like five.
but they kind of itch...
anyways. camp is fun :)
although once real camp starts we can only leave our phones in the stone house and be there to use them. which basically you are never in the stone house.
well i will be because of crafts but i won't be able to check my phone.
sooo. that will be interesting.
anyways i need sleep.
gooddd night.
