I can't believe how time gets away from me: one second i'm going shopping for supplies the day before I go to camp, then all of a sudden i'm at camp, wondering how the heck that happened, then all too soon i'm at home, bored, realizing I haven't written a post in nearly a month. I guess life's just crazy like that though. People tell you to stop and smell the roses, and you try, but time moves so fast that when you're done, you forget what it was like and have to do it all over again. Wow, that made absolutely no sense... Haha well I guess that's what happens when I start rambling... =P So, camp. It was pretty fun, though it rained almost nonstop! And when it wasn't raining, the sky was blanketed in ominous grey clouds. Lovely, right? Halfway through the week, I had one of the worst experiences in my life: I touched a slug. For the first time. Ever.I know I sound pretty melodramatic, but I HATE bugs. Especially if they're slimy. So this is how it happened. All of the girls in Cayuse Village (our lodge) were laying on the tarp ( we were on an overnighter and it was time to go to bed). Absentmindedly I reached into my backpack and stopped cold as my fingers met a cold, slimy substance. Looking over with a flashlight in my hand, I let out a small scream: it was a slug! Ewww!!! It was setting on my shorts, so I picked them up and hurled them off the tarp (I was on the end), then used my water bottle to try and get the slime off. It took FOREVER!!! But I finally got (most of) it off, but it was terrible. And you know what else? We had to relieve ourselves in a hiffy. Yep, a good old rustic hole in the ground. We were practically begging to go in the biffy. An upgrade, but it stunk nonetheless. A girl nearly puked after using it, and in other camp sessions, people have thrown up. Okay, tmi, well I guess I'll end this now, as I've started rambling and that's NEVER a good thing =P
As always, TFR :)
