Camp 2009

I was cleaning my desk out yesterday, and I found the notebook that I wrote in when I went to camp last summer. Every chance we got to rest, I would resist the allure of the book stuffed under my pillow and instead either write letters to my family and friends or write about my day in the journal. Some of it has really bad grammar because my hand would cramp so bad, I figured I'd understand what I was trying to say even 20 years in the future. So here it is, with grammar mistakes and all, although some parts have been removed for fear of offending people, should they ever stumble across this meaningless mush of words.

I met my cabin mates. Sorrell, Emmie, and Rachel who is obsessed with blue! For dinner we had spaghetti w/ cheese! There was also bread!
Retyping this, I realize I talked a lot about food and used a lot of exclamation points. Please don't get irritated. and peas, corn, carrots, and lima beans! I had 2 1% milks. I am nothing if not thorough. You even get to hear about what KIND of milk I drank. Lucky you. I got seconds of everything. I'm not afraid to admit I'm piggy. Mama does love her food. We acted out a skit where I was the clown school teacher! Everyone liked our skit the best! Wow I was snotty. Sorrell and I are slooowly mastering our Ping Pong skills. Julia handled everything well. Time for lights out! *presumably written the next day* (for dessert we had popcicles) One kid, named Andy, had to get up and sing a song because he put his elbows on the table! We sing LOTS of songs! Before every meal, during every meal, and at activities too. Finally, a sentence that doesn't end in an exclamation point! Shoot, I did it again. Sorrell and I chose all the same activities. BTW, Sorrell hated this camp with a vengeance, and does not plan on returning in the near or distant future. Rachel knows how to knit and purl. Emmie is 5' 10" and I know everything about Sorrell! Uhm, random and slightly stalker much? I <3>Gahhhh! I'm so annoying! I wasn't this annoying when I wasn't it publishing it for the internet to view. And I was not planning on typing in bold so much. I got red paint all over my leg and sock and sneaker after our skit. Under my pillow I keep my journal and book.

All righty. That's enough for now. And none of this is supposed to be in Italics. It just so happens that I have sucky luck.
Great. Add "pessimist" to the list of my character traits.
Wish I had some more of that cheesecake Sorrell and I got tonight.

If you comment, I'll give you a muffin! Okay that was a lie. I'll give you a lollipop! Nope, still not right. Hang on... How about I give you a shiny gold star sticker? Grrrrrr, forget it! I never was good at bribery.
