The first day of year 8 camp

My legs absolutely ached as I continued to run, although I could’ve walked it. Our year eights had started to take a 3km hike up and down the Ngaruawahia mountain range. Some people even struggled to make it ten metres up the hill. Mind you it was very steep.

“Finally” I screamed as we had finished our 2-3 hour hike. It was time to run down the last little bit of the walk then......”ooohhh”, I had tripped over a rock that was sticking out of the ground but wasn’t visible. Luckily I wasn’t hurt in anyway.

4:30 pm and it was finally free time. Arcade room,mud slide or pool. I ran straight to the pool. It was really fun swimming in the rain splashing around without worrying about getting much things wet. But the real stink let down was that we weren’t allowed to do bombs into the pool.

Our hour of free time was over and then time for showers that everyone was eager to go for. But then sadly the showers we so slow that you could barely feel it running on you. It was a shower so you had to appreciate it. I was back into some dry warm clothes and read to eat dinner.

“Um,Um, Nachos for dinner!” I was very happy to hear that we were having nachos for dinner. My plate was stacked with a lot of different calories and carbs. It contained chips,mince,onions,veges and sauce. Some people looked like they didn’t get fed at home going up for heaps of food. Although our school looked like starving pigs, thanks to ted and the cooks for cooking our food.

“Hahaha” the year eights laugh as the movie Nacho Libre played. Mr Barks and the crew had finally managed to get the sound working. But the had only managed to get it working at about 10.00 p.m so we only watch half of it the slowly went to bed. And like that the camp was quiet. Everyone asleep no sound. And that was the first day done and dusted from my point of view.
