Camp Moment

Shhh! Quiet other cabins are trying to sleep .

If you don't want to sleep then just lie there.  Henna and I just lay on our bunks. A cricket climbed in the window, we saw it go into my bag of clothes. I kind of squealed! Someone from cabin 10 walked in and told us to be quiet but we kept on talking when all of a sudden … Mrs Seth walked in saying “if you don't stop talking you will  be doing chillout.

So then the cabin thought that was our warning but then we kept on talking. Mrs Seth burst in again “this is your last chance!”

I got nervous because I didn’t want to do chillout so I started to lie down on my silky smooth sheet that was gliding up my leg. Peppermint toothpaste lingered down my throat as I swallowed. Pitch blackness eventually overcame me.

As I walk across brown golden wooden planks to get over the soaked green grass I am strolling through the deep dark mysterious forest all alone until I get to the creek and I don't want to cross it.

But it's the only way I can get to the warm soft cabin with candles lit.

There is only 16 more steps and then I will be there.

The rocky river only has little fishes they won’t hurt, I will just run across.

It then it will be fine 3,2,1 go. As I run I do get wet but it is to get back to my hot smoky hot chocolate with light fluffy marshmallows floating as little pink and white boat’s. As is have strolled through the icy winter Wonderland with a happy feeling in it with a hot chocolate waiting for me just to take a few more steps as I enter the creaky wooden door…
