BACK FROM CAMP!!!!!!

Jul 26, 2004 12:05


wow! its so good to be home! i loved camp so much. i made a ton of new friends and met up with some old ones i met last year. i was in one of the oldest units, CHAVERIM. in hebrew it means friends. you can check out the pictures from second session summer 2004 at this site:  http://www.campjcashalom.com/photogallery/pictures.php any way, i was in cabbin G-7 along with skyler, marli, moriel, mia, micki, farrah, devin, lauren, fred (rachel), alyissa (she left the second week), and me. alyissa and i didnt become very close so things really didnt change when she left. i made some friends from the other girl's cabbin, G-6, which was also in our unit. there was only one boy cabbin for Chaverim. It was actually a tent so the girls were lucky to get cabbins.  a lot happened and changed. i had so much fun and i cant wait till next year. the time went by so fast. where did it go?  heres a passage i wrote at camp:

here at camp, dust lerks in every last corner. people express their true feelings; sometimes it doesn't matter. cabbins are homes to campers, counselors, and even animals. Trees ranging in any size, shape, shade, and color can be found. people run, laugh, smile. Friendships are created, and destroyed. A place to stop and catch your breath. Where wild creatures stay for many years and campers stay for many days. An art studio for memories. That is what camp is about. That's camp. People play instruments, read books, make jokes, friends; people learn something new everyday. I count the minutes here. I want to stay, but i want to leave. I want to be here; just a few days, hours, minutes longer.  I can't.  I miss home. My friends. My family. My pets. The food, the aromas, i miss so much. Some people get homesick while away. When im home i get campsick. I think about what would i change if i could go back in time. I think about what daring things I could do or acheive. It's coming to an end. Make the most of it! But what can i do to make this better? I dont want to think, " Oh, I should have done this," or "why didn't i do that?" i want those thoughts to never occur. That's the way it works though. That's life. The way it is. This is what camp is about. To get away from it all. Too bad it has to end.

so thats it for now! check out that site and look at the pictures. luv ya! leave a comment
