CAMP! Everyone's favourite time of the school year. No work, no waking up super duper early and no uniforms. However at my school everyone wasn't so happy to be going.
On the first day we arrived. We played some low elements, team work games. One of the was the whale watching. All of us stood on a plank which wobbled according to weight, like a seesaw. We had to try to make it balanced. It was easy for the first round. But the second round was trickier, we were never able to do it. We had to sit down and make it balanced. There was one guy (let's call him Patrick) who always moved right before we got it right. Whale watching is FRUSTRATING.
Then we did (I have no idea what it's called) but some of us had to walk across some sort of tightrope, whilst others supported us.
Afterwards we closed of by all of us standing on a line of ABC mats (the ones in the image below). Then our instructor told us to arrange ourselves according to height without touching the floor. I, of course, had to go to the other end (I'M SO PETITE). Then she told us to arrange ourselves in alphabetical order and birthdate.
After lunch we were supposed to do high elements, an obstacle course eight metres in the air. But the world decided to punish me for that one time I stole my brother's Halloween candy, and it RAINED. I was so gutted!
Instead we got to play with mouse traps. As boring as it may seem, it was actually incredibly intense. The clip thingy (the part that kills the mouse) is a very strong and dangerous thing. And the part to hook it on does NOT seem SECURE. But it is. You just have to trust it. Then we had to deactivate it by clamping our hand on it and pushing it away from us. *GULP* It was very scary. Then we had to trust our friend to deactivate it on our hand.
After dinner we played a Blind Man's Trial. Which is walking in a row, blindfolded, whilst someone gives you directions.
And then Animals Call which is trying to find your group, blindfolded, whilst imitating an animal. Each group has one animal call, so that you can find them.
In between these games my friend and I both got nosebleeds out of nowhere and got to chill in the office for twenty minutes. Yeah.
Then we showered and stuff and went to sleep.
This was our room.
Bye,
Nin
This post was indeed late because... I'm late?
