G8. Design your own challenge

For this challenge I am looking after my friend Madisons Dog Sophia. Madison has gone to Wellington for 6 days. She has asked me to look after her puppy so she is here at the moment cuddled up on the couch in her bed. To complete this challenge I am going to upload photos of me taking her for a walk, going to bed, having breakfast, sleeping on our beds and in the car. I am very excited about this challenge.

Camp Happenings

Camp Happenings

The funniest happening on camp was watching people fall into the river off rocks. Steffanie and Brooke were rock hopping and Brooke went for a little swim. Brooke went over to the middle and climbed up on a rock. Steffanie went over there too. Brooke wanted Steffanie go in the water too but Steffanie wasn’t so sure. I was videoing them while waiting for Steffanie to jump in the Brooke. The countdown started and they linked arms and then Brooke jumped and Steffanie didn’t! Brooke climbed back up and then Brooke convinced Steffanie to jump in so Steffanie counted down and didn’t jump. Anyway about 10 minutes later she decided to jump. As soon as she touched the water she started screaming because the water was about 5-6 degrees!

The biggest challenge on camp was Paintball because I was so freaked out that I didn’t shoot 1 bullet. I’m not sure if I got shot because I had so many layers on! But I didn’t shoot any bullets because I was just too freaked out. It was my 2nd time playing and last year when I played at camp I got shot about 5-7 times and it was exciting but this year I guess I was just a little scared and freaked out.

The scariest happening on camp was when my Aimee, Steffanie and I were rafting down the river in out tubes and we were just about to finish and then Steffanie’s leg get caught in a rock. We race up and get a parent and they carried her up into the common room. We ended up getting 5 seconds behind the record for rafting, so we were all very proud but frightened because we didn’t know what was going to happen with Steffanie. They called her Dad and then he took her to hospital. Steffanie came back that night and was better but she had crutches. Today back at school she has a moonboot.

The most exhausting moment was on the first night and we were doing the cooking competition. I thought this was challenging and exhausting because people were running everywhere and I couldn’t find the garlic crusher that I put in a plastic bag. But in the end our meal was delicious and I was very pleased at everything.

The most embarrassing moment was when we were doing the stream study I went to step onto a rock and the rock was so slippery and mossy that I fell into the water face first. The water was so cold and had rocks everywhere. I was not planning to fall in and get very cold!

The most dangerous moment was when Felila was bouncing on the trampoline and she went to do a backflip and landed on her neck and back. She started screaming and banging on the trampoline. Someone ran and got a parent. They sat with her on the trampoline with blankets and someone was holding her neck so it wouldn’t move. The ambulance arrived an hour later and took her to the hospital. We were all waiting back at camp for the results. She ended up going home from the hospital at 11.45pm and came back to camp the next day and ended up pinching a nerve in her neck. It was very frightening especially because I was there when it happened and saw everything.

3 things I learnt

1. I learnt to have a go at everything and not be shy.

2. I learnt how to climb a climbing the vertical and horizontal playpen and how to abseil

3. I learnt how to make damper and how to start a fire.

2 things I was surprised about

1. I was surprised that we were 5 seconds behind the record for rafting I was surprised because of what happened  to Steffanie that we got such a fast time still.

2. I was surprised that Felila was alright after that bad landing.

I question I still have

My question is why can’t camp be longer?
