I'm bak!!!!!!!!

Well... all i can say is that i'm neva gonna join tha army!!! at tha moment mi arms kill and i got blisters on mi heels that hurt tons... ok first i wanna say that i'm bak 4m camp which wz 1 of tha greatest camps i've been 2 although there many bad things but nothing can be perfect.

ok fieldcraft camp... um... ah yes i got there at bout 6:15 pm an then got on tha bus bout 7 we arrived bout 10 and pitched our tents and got in2 our sleepin bags. the next mornin we woke at bout 6 am got 15 mins 2 get out of bed and put on our shoes (some ppl slept with their shoes on crazy if u ask me) we jogged 4 bout 20 min then went bak 4 breaky which wz cold cereal. we were then split up in 2 groups so we would be forced 2 meet new ppl. we then went 4 a 5km walk upto tha firin range which wz nearby tha obsticle course. we did tha obsticle course (mi group came 3rd by doin it in 8 mins between 13ppl! YAY!!!!!!!*clap, clap*) and then we walked bak after that in total bout 2.5km which wz half way coz a miniute came and picked us up (thank god!). wen we got bak we had lunch which wz ok. we had prac lectures afta that and then dinner, afta dinner we had skits performed by each group. mi group had no idea wat 2 do so we just did this skit bout a group of students who had a random maths teacher who thought he had gone 2 the vietnam war and kept sayin "bak in 'nam..." it got b***** annoying but i guess at least had a skit. afta that we had a nite act where we got 2 use nite vision. it wz pretty cool. we went 2 sleep afta that and woke up in tha mornin late and i wz half runnin half puttin mi shoe on coz we were bein told off realli bad for not gettin out of bed. we had mornin exercises and then we had a field navigation avt where we had 2 find these points in tha bush. the leaders didn't listen 2 tha pacers so we ended up walkin round in circles. wen we got bak we packed and got on tha bus 2 go home.

ok now 2 tha down sides:
*we didn't have any proper toilets - they were longdrops and there wz no light system so we had 2 take a torch
*there were no showers - well actually there were but there wz no water supply to the shower heads so there wz no point
*we walked in total at least 10 kms - ova tha whole camp time
*i got blisters
*i got sore shoulders now
*nadia got tons of prickly things in her hands - very painful

ne waiz it wz a great experience ova all
and nite nite
