Oooh, my first serious post...

Well, camp was certainly memorable, and probably for all the wrong reasons. There were the amazing moments - getting to the summit of Mt Cameron and having a 360 degree view of the land around me was something I'll never forget. There were the funny moments, like when half the class all ended up lost and stuck up on top of a cliff in the orienteering course.



And then there were the scary moments. Not just the physical ones, like jumping off the cliff into Blue Lake, but the mental ones as well. Our whole camp group had to put up with a girl who kept making threats of suicide and having violent outbursts. On the last day of camp, at some sand dunes, she ran off. We were stuck for an hour while the teaching staff and some students went looking for her. The police were almost called in, and she had to be taken home in a seperate car for fear of her own - and the class's - safety.



It's things like these that make you thankful for what you have. Personally, I don't see how I could harbour so much hate towards other people like this girl did, but I can't really comment on the subject because I'm not in her situation. All I can do is sit back and watch.
