and every other cheesy cliche.: November 2008

back from camp (H)
it was too short i reckon. they should've made it a week. that would've been awesome
well monday morning i arrived pretty early to schoolio, like 7:10 or something

so it was kinda boring waiting for others to come but heaps fun trying to guess who it was in the car because most of the time i got it completely wrong haha
like for mattie i guessed it was .. nvm :P
my suitcase was so tiny compared to everyone else's
like jayson's one was twice the size of mine
no idea what he put in there besides TWO pillows and a doona

so then after 8 we finally left

and it was about a 2hour trip of watching stardust to some wisemen's ferry place

when we finally arrived after crossing some river it looked like such a hole and we had to walk all the way to the actual camp place

the cabins looked a bit like army camp hut ones with bunks but wasnt so bad

my sexy cabin group :]
mish, jasmine, lana, lizzie, me, karen, stella

so our first activity of the day (group 8) was some trolley one

where we all had to put our feet on planks of wood and walk

it was pretty funny :]
next we had to make a square out of a piece of rope with our eyes closed
and yeah .. we sorta failed that haha
after this we got to go canoeing and LOL
bryan, amy, charles, ebony and jenny tran all capsized
i paired up with mish and we were going ok for a while
until we crashed into the bank and i got cuts on my face by the reeds
next we had some navigation thing which was boring
then making damper. haha kimberly chucked in so much sugar :D
and karen made it into the shape of mickey mouse
although it looked like a dick from one angle lol
we then went to shower in the guys bathroom cos it was one whole big shower and it was alot easier

then dinner, we had spaghetti but it tasted kinda sour
but the garlic bread was heaps pro
man, you should have seen jasmine attacking the corn

then dessert, apple crumb
naww you should've seen andrew - he had about 3 bowels of it and he was just happily eating away ^^
then after dinner; our night time activities
we played HIDE AND SEEK LOL
it was so .. random
we had to run around in the dark looking for people with code names like nemo, shrek, elton john, superman, felix the cat, astroboy etc.
and it was SO FREAKING HARD
gosh
they hid in trees! and in holes! and under canoes and under houses :L
it was crazy mang
we all ran around for 2 hours straight in the dark and could hardly see a thing
i kept getting lost haha
like one minute i was with andrew or douglas or victor
and then the next they were gone
after about an hour and a half the game got so pointless so everybody just gave up and lay on the grass
bumped into john kim and ali holding hands
how cute and gay at the same time LOL
ali recognised it was me cos of my singing ngawww ^^
oh but surprise surprise
guess who had their sunnies on
YES. john kim
and it was pitch black too :P
so then he tried making me wear them but ended up poking me in the eye instead
LMAO.
next, hot chocolate and bed time
took me ages to get to sleep
and everyone else in the other cabins were talking to much lol
kept waking up in the night
and then at about 5 in the morning it got so cold so i had to put some pants on cos i only had my undies on

woke up pretty early on the second day due to all the other cabins around me waking up at 6
the sun was out, so that was pretty cool and the mountains looked awesome :]

first activity for the day was creating connections session
that was boring, we just kicked around a bag lol
and then afterwards we just watched hewie show us his freezes and breakdancing moves :D

afterwards my camera screwed up cos some water leaked into it
i was so pissed off cos i couldnt take anymore photos!
grrrrr..
but anyways next were high ropes
everyone went on except for ben and kassie :P
then rockclimbing which was so fecking fun
i reached the top like 2/3 times but after that
zomg my arms were so tired and stiff
it felt like i had botox or something
took ages to get back to flabby and normal haha
archery next which was alright
peter or brenda i think it was shot the arrow and then it just disappeared
and jasmine snapped one lol
then flying fox .. if you could even call it that
it was so crap
just this bit of string over a river
and it was raining so no one went on it and we ended up missing out on abseiling
went for a walk in the rain to visit the guy's cabins
saw john kim in his "grey gangsta looking trackpants"
(he wanted me to mention this:)
but anyways, greek's cabin had so much food :O
it could've lasted them a week!
mattie and co. cabin had shoes everywhere on the floor
and ali was all alone in his ;)
with matresses everywhere on the floor

dinner time - most of the girls wore dresses
chyeahh (H)
it rained though, so that was a downside
amy and bryan looked EXACTLY the same;
superman shirt, red shorts, no shoes and singing and screaming like crazay
we had some BBQ thing which was kinda crap
cos the hot dog bread was all dry and stale and fat and i couldnt fit it in my mouth
and the corn thing was ok
but the jelly + cream was best =9
next our night time activity was ..
some socchockey game
i swear, they ran out of ideas
haha so many people stacked it :L
then cameron and his band for the night's late night entertainment (lol)
went over to where john kim, ali and charles were standing
and watched ali trying to jump all the stairs
then me and amy started our own little shizzle thing
humming the bonds ad song
boom chat chat boom boom chat :D
and doing them pelvic thrusts and dancing like idiots teehehe
then they played negativity
so we all started a moshpit which only lasted for about 5 minutes
then bedtime
i think i slept like a log
only woke up once at about 5 something cos it was cold
but other than that we all slept in til 7 haha
so we got lazy and just went to breakfast in our pjs (:
had really nice pancakes for brekky even though vi didnt agree with me
our activity for the day was pack and paddle
we were all shitting ourselves cos it was raining
and we had to paddle about 6km AGAINST the tide then go on a dangerous steep as hike
i paired up with kimberly
and man, she rows like a tank
i couldn't keep up with her
and LOL i got whacked on the head by the paddle
.. it hurt :(
we got about halfway
and it was brendan and lizzie rowing at the very front
and wow, it was so pretty
they were making all the little ripples in the water
and they were so in sync :L
we FINALLY arrived at our destination
which was
just a bare paddock with cow crap everywhere --"
had lunch :D
then me, jasmine and courtney needed to pee
so believe it or not, we had to go in the open behind a tree
turns out it wasnt that bad
and HAHA i think i stepped on their pee :L
we then began our hike which was mainly uphill
and alan i think it was got stung by a hornet
then going downhill, LOL AT BEN
what a cocky one :)
he kept slipping and stacking it
it was so funny to watch :P
after all the slips and stacks and screams, we finally reached LAND
it was just some open field in the middle of nowhere
so then everyone just sorta died there for about 2 minutes
and then we started on our walk back to the camp place
had free time for once
and what do you know?
we had no idea what we wanted to do
after all this time about complaining about having no free time, we finally get it and dont even do anything :L
went to shower with lizzie
who's legs were completely ORANGE
(fake tan!) jokes
so jasmine and karen sat and watched us shower for about 10 minutes
then we were done but lizzie's legs were still orange
so we both hopped back in shower for another 5 mins or so
steven wore a flannel shirt, so then i decided to wear one aswell :)
then jasmine, mish and brenda (he looked funny in it)
so the night turned out to be flannel night ;D
dinner was pretty crap
(we should've just made the migoreng)
really bad soggy rice with chicken, peas and carrots and gravy
i didn't even eat a third of it
and i think the gravy was the only nice part
i only took the bread cos i felt sorry for ali xD
and that he said no one else was taking it haha
john kim kept chucking his peas on my plate
and LOL he found a yellow carrot thing
like wtf?
then he gave me a frostie on my leg --"
so i wiped it on his pants
and now there's a mark there that won't come out :D
haha you should've seen ali eating his veggies
he stuck the peas and carrots onto the fork just like a kebab :)
then desert which was FRUIT SALAD AND ICE CREAM. YUM
:D
and btw, ali eats like a little kid ;D

then after dinner we played some singing game
and our group was so crap at it LOL
we only did so sick, love in this club, where is the love and gold digger
it was heaps fun though xD
amy's and greek's group totally kicked everyone else's ass
and GG to sherman sitting on the table and collapsing it (Y)
lol the version of immigrant song was classic bruh
"AAAHHHHHHHHH AH!"
:L
well the game finally ended and we had hot chocolate (again)
and then off to bed.. or so we thought
my sexy cabin girls and i; karen mish and jasmine (the rest were snoring)
had our own little party going on
with me randomly playing "i'm a barbie girl"
our main goal was to stay up til 12 for karen's bday (:
at about 11:45, after all the crazy luvo-ing
we sorta died and got tired
so out came the chips and lollies!
and we were high again
then about midnight
the boys came over
nawwww that was so sweet : )
so karen and jasmine disappeared into the toilets to talk to them
then more people kept on coming :D
it was so exciting yet we were all shtting ourselves incase we got caught
but i swear, SO MANY people visited us
and we were making so much noise aswell
ahhh now that i think about it, i really should've went over to the guy's cabins
LOL damn. oh well
all throughout the night, more people kept on coming over
i kept getting woken up haha
i only got about 2/3 hours that night
it was a night to remember though :L
wore my buble shirt in the morning
completely covered my shorts
it was like a dress for me
went outside to talk to greek and barahona
who turns out, both had absolutely no sleep at all :O
so then greek ended up falling asleep on the concrete right outside our cabins
and tried sleeping on my shoulder
poor thing
and barahona just looked so zoned out at brekky
our final activity was some olympics one
with some events consisting of:
- diaper run
- egg and spoon
- spinning around 10 times then running with a paddle
etc.
it was pretty random and really boring
and bryan kept complaining about how he got no sleep yesterday becos john kim kept singing
"i can ride my bike with no handlebars" song :L
we then had some rafting race thing
where we had to make a raft, paddle, come back and pull it apart
i got bored, so tried on mattie's HUGE jacket
somebody should've taken a photo
it came just above my knees, and the sleeves were like 15 cm too long
went back to our cabins to pack again and clean up
then chucked suitcases into the trailer and finally went to have lunch
hahah the sausages were so long :P
sung random songs with steven
hahah that was heaps good :D
went to pee for last time
there was a line for both guys and girls toilets >.>
haha john kim and victor peed in the shower .. gross :P
walked back to where the buses were parked
bryan was preggas, then had a boob job
ali complained about john kim's singing
and john kim pulled out a pack of dora the explorer cards outta nowhere
crossed the bridge with the troll living under it (lol lizzie believed me)
and i swear, the people that owned the place were so happy that we've left
LOL xD
finished watching stardust movie. what a crap ending it was too
tried to sleep but couldnt
so laughed at mattie nodding off hehe
our busdriver didnt know the way back and kept taking the wrong turns
but we arrived at school nonetheless
how weird it felt to be back at "school"
like .. what was that again? :P

apart from the few tears here and there, and me regretting doing some things,
and regretting NOT doing others; eg. sneaking out on the last night
haha yeah, i really wanna kick myself for not doing that >.>
i was too chicken to get caught
damn, should've just went with what my heart wanted and not my head.. if that makes sense
yeah overall it was a pretty awesome asskicking camp
and our grade is just so fecking awesome ha (H)
i really wouldn't have minded spending another week or so
i could even get used to the crap showers, the huge mozzies and flies, having no reception, the half decent food, pissy instructors (some of them) and the sleep deprivation =D
just the thrill of seeing so many people so early in the morning and so late at night, talking to people that i would never have at school and being able to not have a worry in the world is a feeling that i will never forget
and even though it wasnt at jindabyne like we all would have wanted,
in many ways, it was so much more
:)

oh and just for the record

i can ride my bike with no handlebars
no handlebars
no handlebars
:D
