Dramatic Footage And Video Diaries Provide An Intimate Perspective Of An Epic Expedition
I have seen way too many little girl boobs. I think even a pedophile would have gotten tired of being flashed by sixth graders as often as I was. I don't understand them. I don't think I was ever that preoccupied with farting and I know I always covered myself. Unlike a girl in my cabin whom I'm pretty sure was purposefully dropping her towel. She did it like seven times. I hate boobs, they're so gross.
But really, outdoor ed was mega fun. I was ready to come back for a nice hour long bubble bath, but I'm gonna miss not having schoolwork and being treated like an adult. It was awesome, the teachers treated us like equals even though I kept forgetting that and excpected them to yell at me whenever I wasn't paying attention to the public service announcements (which was all the time). Plus, we got to get coffee, tea and hot chocolate and the kids were stuck with milk. Although I did drink my milk (no way am I gonna get osteoperosis!).
I've decided that I'm never having kids because you get no breaks. However, I really enjoyed bossing the kids around. It was pretty cool cuz they had to do what I told them. I think the best part was how even if they didn't seem to want to do what you told them, they kind of did because they though all us high schoolers were the shit. I liked most of my kids, especially Tyler, Keiran, Alanna and Chris. I never knew all of the girl's names in my cabin, but one of them, Tiffany, was in my night and day groups which sucked cuz I didn't like her. She had this sinus problem so the first night she kept me up the whole time and it was awful. I dunno though, she was pretty weird. The guys were awesome, although Tyler was a bit destructive and Keiran could be a bit obnoxious. Chris was... I think he had a crush on me because he kept coming up to me and pretend punching my arms and back and just generally sticking pretty close to me. He was cool though, so I didn't mind.
They had a talent show, and for my group's skit, Chris played Ms. Rowles but earlier that day, he asked me to give him a mustache with a sharpie that was lying around. This stemmed from a story I'll let Erinne tell. The mustache became a goatee and some stray hairs under his chin (where guys always forget to shave) and a unibrow. Then we remembered the skit. But luckily that just made it more hilarious. He had these huuuuge fake boobs that he kept like, fondling them. Almost every skit mocked the teachers in some way, and a common theme was that Ms. Rowles and some other teacher flirted a lot. So in my group's skit they got married but another teacher objected because she loved the other teacher. It was pretty good and they got third place.
The counselor's did a skit too, at the end, which was a list of things not to do at outdoor ed. We got to throw candy to the kids, which they loved, and I got to bully Robert Henry. Possibly the best part were when Jimmy pretended to take a huge dump. From offstage, we all provided sound effects. Zach was the toilet. Another great part was when Amy and Maddy pretended to take reallly long showers. Thne Jimmy came on, wearing the bright orange towel I'd borrowed from Erinne over his clothes. He whipped it off, and stepped in to his shower which was freezng. But those sixth graders were nasty because someone yelled out 'wash your knees' and they obviously knew what they were talking about. I don't think I knew about that when I was in sixth grade!
The counselors all left our kids the second night and went for a walk in the dark. We ended up just going to the mess hall and sitting in front of the gas fire (which for whatever reason had been left on). I think the most notable event was the appearance of Creepy Nuts. This guy was crazy. He walked around with a knife and a harness that brought unwanted attention to his package. And he was creepy. Apparently he just slept in the woods the whole time. Like, not in a tent of a sleeping bag or anything. How weird is that? He just walked in with this like, candle lantern and asked how we were doing then left.
The last noteworthy thing to write about is how I got wounded. There was this game called the coyote hunt that had me running through the woods. Somehow I got a huge ass thorn stuck in my calf. It was like, an inch long. And now my calf hurts and is a little swollen. Because I have a HOLE in my leg! Hopefully it won't get infected, but knowing my luck it will.
Phew, that's all for now.
