I am not a camper by any means of the word. I am the sissy girl who enjoys hotel rooms and flushing toilets. I forever have a fear of falling into the outhouse hole into the not-so-mysterious blackness below. I abhor mosquitoes, fire-pit smoke, and the utter freezing cold in the mornings. Call my what you will, but I am not a camper.
So I do find it extremely ironic that I chose to go camping with my roommate, her brother, his two friends that find it somewhat hilarious to tease me, and five other random people. But, hey, it's college. We believe in the social life. We try new things. We do stupid stuff.
The camping trip began by caravan-ing an hour and a half up by Ogden. I had a sneaking suspicion that one of the guys leading was drunk. Well, okay, not really, but you know what I mean. By the time we had arrived at the campsite, I had absolutely no trust in the guys. I did not want to get out of my car, in fear that they would just jump back into their car and drive off. This was going to be an awesome couple of days. . .
We ate bar-b-que chicken sandwiches, (the boys had baked beans with theirs) and threw a ball around the campfire. This ball had a plethora of random questions written all over, and whichever question your right thumb landed on, you had to answer that one. Pretty soon, the ball ended up in the fire as I so awesomely predicted. We talked, we laughed at the guy to tripped over a log and body slammed the ground, we drank caffeine, we went to sleep. That's when the real party began.
Now normally, my roommate and I can get pretty hyper. But, neither of us had ever really tried an energy drink and we were mildly curious to experience the effect. We were not disappointed. Many pictures, uncontrollable laughing sessions, listening to the guys baked beans kick in, and about five hours later, we really went to sleep.
The next morning my roommate and I spent the entire morning skipping rocks on the beach, waiting for the guys to come pick us up to go boating. Did they ever show up? Nope. Of course not. But, we had a blast building a sand castle, complete with moat and water slide! Sound fun? It was a blast.
