Sleeping

I'll never forget the second night at camp. It was loud and the counslers came in every five minutes to check on us. We were having so much fun we almost lost our "z" award.

We were heading back from campfire and I ran into the bathroom and brushed my teeth. When I came back into our cabin and got into my pajamas, Hawk, our counsler read my favorite short story from Where the Sidewalk Ends.

After that Hawk told us he had a very important meeting. When he walked out the trouble started. People started making fart sounds and being loud. People started jumping out of their bunks and runnning around. I can't accuse them of anything because I was doing it too.

Then I was very cold. I did the only thing I could do, put on clothes. We were playing around having fun, then it happened. The door swung open. I jumped into my bed as fast as I could. Lime walked in and looked at everybody. Ten seconds later he walked out. I came out and peeked out the door. Lime was sitting right outside the door. I figured we should stop fooling around.

Camp was really fun. I am so glad our school could go and I hope that the other classes get the same chance.
