That's what we sang every evening after dinner at the sleepover Hosmer Point.
I left H P a week ago and now I feel like I Should write something about it. For starters Hosmer was very fun, I met a lot of really great kids, some Became good friends of mine, but sooo much Happened at Hosmer That I would be unable to write all of it in one blog post, or maybe I Could, if it was HUUUUGE It would be About 100 paragraphs long and ...
Oh well I guess I can not, so I'll just write the highlights.
For starters the cabins were fairly small and private with only mine having seven kids. Beds were comfy, sleeping was easy, until, 7:30 When a group of kids (not Including me) went down to the water, swam, and yelled as loud as possible to wake up the camp. Yes, This was done every morning except Saturday, Where we got to sleep 'til 9:00.
The first few days were kinda confusing, I was confused about how the day went. Then I got used to it and things started going smoothly. On Friday one of my friends ate 42 pieces of bacon and got sick. The next day I missed polar bears and got EXTREMELY ticked off. Then on Sunday I got a care package with: Beef jerky, chocolate, and raisins. Counselors
took the food. I got so angry I frowned (and totally destroyed my bed later but whatever). I kinda forgot about the food, I was more fascinated With the sticky hand and the ball I got from the package. The next days were fun, meeting people, learning how to do CPR in the woods, swimming, shelter building, more CPR One day, I was allowed to exit swimming class since i had met requirements: D. I Learned alot and burnt my hand on hot glue, then a I won at javelin throwing against 3 others who were older than me. Also I won 1st place at the tournament Jiant Jenga (Jenga The Jiant was made my my friends and I in a class) I made a raven out of cork in Arts and Crafts and on Thursday I and four friends, Addison, Axel & Andrew & Sam ,presented a skit called:
THAT GAME SHOW!
(The next part of the post is a recollection of the story, if you find it boring carry on)
The lights turn on, the curtains open and ...
"Welcome to: THAT GAME SHOW (that you did not pay attention to on TV)!" Said the host.
The 3 Contestants Walked on stage, one dressed in casual clothes, the other in fancy, and the third in gray uniform pants and jacket.
"I'm your host Galel, and today's contestants are: CRIS!"
"Criiiiiiiisss" droned The One with casual clothes.
"Jack Important!" Continued the host.
"My name is Jack, but you can call me Jack for short," Said the fancily dressed one.
"And finally contestant 3114" The host finished.
"How did I get here?" 3114 Looked around confused.
"For our first game we have: WHATS THIS COLOR ?!.."
A man in black Walked out and gave the host a green card.
The first contestant answered "Criiiiiisssss" and was rewarded $ 1000.
The second awnsered: "Umm thats hard one ... Ummm, unggggg ... Red?"
The same man in black Walked out and switched the green with red.
"Correct!" Said the host.
"YES! What do I win?" Said jack.
"A sad feeling" Replied the host.
Then the third's turn arrived.
"WHATS. THIS. COLOR ?!" Asked the host energeticly.
"How did- Wait, I was in a crate! The crate was in a boat! I, I was ki-" 3114 started
"No! Wrong! Wrong!" Said the host desperately.
The second game was The Wheel o 'Fortune. Cris got anothe $ 1000. Jack got the purple surprise,
disappointment. 3114 and got the $ 5000 tile, but then a man in the black came out and switched it to the red surprise. Then 3114 was Dragged off, then a quick succesion of a red liquid (you guessed it!) Splattered on the ground.
The end game was: THE ANSWER IS YES!
Asked Cris was: "What is the Color of a platypus?" Which I Responded To "Bob ..." and got $ 5000.
Asked Jack was: "Will you be alive in the next ten seconds?" Jack said no, and was Dragged away to meet is doom. The winner, Cris, was Awarded first place in sailing and was Past Dragged off.
THE END!
(But that's not it!)
So, That was the skit, kinda long I know, but, you did not have to read it.
Anyway, much of the fun two weeks Were I Learned a lot and Eventually, sadly, i had to leave ...Hope I can go back again.
