OH MY GOSH. I have SOOOO much to share! Oh yeah if I have time (doubt it ^^;) then I'll explain why I wasn't here for so long. Today's post will be looooong.
Here's the list:
1. Weekend, AKA 5/8 to 5/10
2. OMG Camp Joy!
3. The other school days
4. Weekend #2, AKA the Past Saturday & Sunday
5. Today and others
#1: The Weekend of 5/8 to 5/10
5/8@ the mini store I bought a LOT of stuff. I won't mention what I got for my mom b/c that'll be a surprise when I talk about Mother's day (5/10). I got a lot of food (that's mostly gone now!) and a few things I'll give away eventually in the summer. We also played Dodge ball and I got hit only once!!! YES! There was also this guy that got a HUGE bag. It was so funny. That's about it...'cause that's all I remember.
5/9 Well this was my friend Samia's b-day but she didn't have a party. Um all I remember is that my brother made an Oreo milkshake. ^^; It was REALLY YUMMY! He just put Oreos, milk, and ice cream together. Mmmm I wanna eat it again. =(
5/10:Mother's DayOkay, what I got my mom: 1st I got her a card. I spent like 2 hours on it! I'm serious. It has sparkly stars, a quote from a fortune cookie (^^;), crayon-drawn backgrounds that took a while, and the note was all in gel pens. It was gorgeous I was so glad to give it to her. 2nd I got her this candle thing and someone told me you just put oil on it, burn it, and it smells really nice. =) I hope my mommy enjoyed it~!
#2: OMG CAMP JOY!!!!!
I think a lot happened on this day. So much, we need another list! (ugg this list stuff is annoying)
1) meals/food 2) ROPE COURSE!! 3) Wetlands & Herpetology 4) Evening Event
#1: Meals.
-Breakfast: MMM breakfast was delicious. It was bacon, eggs, biscuit, and orange juice. :)
-Lunch: grilled cheese sandwiches w/ tomato soup. Chocolate chip cookies
-Dinner: hamburger w/ ketchup, tater tots, and water
-Snack: granola bars + caprisun
#2: OMG the ROPE COURSE!!!!
This was the part of camp that had a sorta scary rumor to go with it: YOU HANG 30 FEET IN THE AIR. o_O
-The pyramid includes goals, positive risk, and support on each…vertex/point? And then in the center it says SUCCESS.
-There was complicated equipment: harness (OUCH! it kills!), ropes ("never touch the metal clips"), and helmet (dang my head is teeny!)
-It was so freaky. First was already a challenge for me: climbing up the net. C'mon. NOTHING WAS GONNA CATCH ME IF I FELL OFF. You gotta be scared of that. Oh, and my goal was not to scream. ^^; I actually achieved that goal! YaY! When I walked across the tightrope thing, I was SCARED. Trembling the whole way. -Shiver- I almost dangled (that's the word they use for "fall") but I got up like right away. =) phew. Then I walked across buttons which really actually wasn't that bad. Next I had to do the tightrope thing again SO SCARY. AHHHH. Last thing I did was the zip line. So fun! I was scared at first, but it turned out really fun - I was floating and flying! :D Seriously it was the best out of everything. Ahh~ wish I could do it again.
sooooooooo this is the remaining of the list I will continue some time I don't know about.
1. rest of day two plus day 3 for camp
2. all the other school days including this week's
3. the past (starting from 5/16) weekend
Enjoy the nice weather! Hope to post soon!
