So, I once again had the opportunity to go to Girls Camp this year. I got back two days ago.
I made a really good friend, named Meagan. I almost got bit by a rattle snake, went on a 10 mile hike (yes, I am surprised, too), put up a humungous tent with my two other friends OURSELVES,
and bore my testimony for the FIRST time ever. It was great, I even cried.
So, about the rattlesnake: I was walking back from the pool by myself after swimming for three and a half hours, I forgot my toothbrush at home, so i was swishing toothpaste in my mouth. I was hearing a rattling noise, and thought it was some kind of bug, because there are so many. I had a feeling not to spit my toothpaste into this huge bush I passed, but I ignored the feeling and did anyway.
Then, out comes a rattlesnake,and it was now in the striking position. I got scared and started crying, and must've moved and scared the snake, and it strikes at me. Luckily, I have reflexes like a cat, jumped back, and ran an fast as I could to my campsite, and woke up my friend who was asleep in the tent. Of course, the whole night (every night) me and my friends stayed up until about 3am talking.
It was a mistake though, because we heard coyotes and bobcats one night that were in the campsite next to us, which is only about 60 feet away. Then we got all quiet, because we heard something outside of out tent. There was something walking around out tent! We got scared and all curled up next to each other and didn't get much sleep. We only got about 2 or 3 hours of sleep because we had to wake up at 6 in the morning every day.
So, of course there were pranks. We pranked the first years, and we got pranked by the 3rd and 6th years. We woke up one morning to a disgusting scent and found fart bags in out tent, which are bags filled with this horrendous liquid. There was still some left in it, so we put it in someone elses tent and poured it all over in there. I was at camp from Tuesday to Friday. I loved it and can't wait until next year! :)
