So some of you wanted to know where the overnight trip was..
We stayed in Warren, NH at the Moosilauke Ravine Lodge.
We stayed in this big bunk house that had four different rooms.
One for the girls (Ashley and I), one for the female staff (Carlie, Melissa, Rita, and Nate's grandmother), one for the boys (Nate, Gavin, Jonathon, Nick, Jesse, Steve, and Tyler but he ended up going home.) one for the male staff (Aaron), and there was Gregg, he was the awake staff and he just sat in the hallway all night long.
When we got there we put all our stuff in our rooms.
I had the biggest bed in our room, but Ashley ended up snagging it from me and made me sleep in one of the bunk beds.
The bunk beds had three beds, and I slept on the second one.
I didn't want to be on the bottom, and I didn't want to be on the top.
Soooo...
I slept in the middle.
After that we had to chose what activity we wanted to do.
There was fishing, swimming, or hiking.
I wanted to hike, but it was only Jesse and Aaron going, and I'm really horrible at hiking. (They were gone for hours too. They got to the summit of the mountain. I would have died.)
I ended up going fishing.
It was me, Nate, Nick, Steve, and Tyler who went fishing.
Where we went was too shallow though.
We fished in the river that was near our bunk house.
Having no luck there we went back to the bunk house, and some people ate.
Nate and I ended up going to the lodge to play cards.
He taught me how to play 21. (Black Jack)
When you play you get two cards.
One faced down, and the other face up.
The object of the game is to get 21, or at least closest to 21 than the other person.
So, once you add up the two cards you have you can either stay, or you can say "hit me" which means you're asking then to give you another card.
If you go over 21 it's called a "bust", and that's when you're done playing.
You can use poker chips when playing, but you don't have to.
If you use poker chips you have to bet.
We stayed in the lodge forever though.
Till dinner time which was at 6:30.
All the food they served was family style.
They made this African Peanut soup or something like that, and it sounded really nasty and looked really gross, but it was actually really good.
It was really spicy though, and my stomach can't handle stuff like that.
So, I thought I was going to have the Hershey squirts. ._.
Rita (nurse) gave me some tums though.
It didn't really help.
They had salad after that, and I wanted some but I didn't think it'd be a good idea to have any.
I'm the only vegetarian from that school so they made me a vegetarian meal for the main course.
It was basically what everyone else was having which was orange chicken (I think) only there were chunks of tofu in the orange sauce.
I took a bite, and it was fine, but then it tasted like vomit.
I almost vomited right then and there.
I spit it out in my napkin, and I went downstairs to get some air.
The desert was good though.
I don't remember what it was.
Everyone was calling it "space cake" though because it melted in your mouth.
Aaron took Nate and I for a moose hunt. (Not actual hunting.)
We drove down the road at night looking for moose, but we didn't end up seeing any.
We saw a mouse though! XP
When we got back we went for a night walk.
We walked on this trail in the woods in the dark with no light.
The only light we used occasionally was the flash light.
That was fun.
We were all tripping on rocks, and stepping in water.
Then we all went night nights when we got back.
The boys wouldn't shut the hell up, and I wanted to keep the door open because I was ascared. >_>
So, I could hear them talking and staff having to go in and tell them to be quiet.
Eventually they settled down, and I eventually fell asleep.
I didn't sleep too well.
I was sweating my butt off even though it was cold out.
I was sleeping in my sleeping bag, and my feet have to stick out otherwise I get really hot.
So, if I stuck my feet out the rest of my body was exposed and then I'd get cold. -_-
I woke up to the sound of something sounding like an airplane getting ready to take off.
I went into the hallway, and it was Gregg on his laptop.
I was like, "Hehe! Hiii!" when I got out of my room and saw him. O_O
I don't know why I did that.
Haha..
But it ended up being 6:10 AM when I woke up.
I thought it was later than that.
I wake up at five AM every morning so my body got used to waking up early.
I ended up going to the lodge to take a shower.
It was nice and hot.
I was expecting it to be cold.
I went up at the lodge and sat there and zoned out.
I was just like staring at stuff and drooling. >_>
Nate's grandmother was up there when I was there.
She probably thought I was insane.
Not that I'm not.
Finally it was 7:30.
That was breakfast time.
We had oatmeal, and blueberry pancakes.
The pancakes were yummy.
After breakfast we played this game called Ah So Co.
It's too hard to explain, so I'm not gonna.
When we were done playing that we had to clean the bunkhouse, and pack our crap up and put it back in the vans.
We changed into our bathing suits too.
We were all going to go swimming at this spot that Carlie, Jonathon, and Gavin found on Monday.
It was an awesome spot.
There were rocks you could jump off of into the water, and little waterfalls.
The water was friggin' freezing though.
I was walking in the water, and then I slipped on the rocks and I fell into the water.
I screamed because it was so cold.
I ended up swimming though. (Sorta. I can't swim.)
There were bunches of Swallowtails flying around. (Butterflies)
I loved it there.
I layed on a rock in the sun, and watched everyone swim.
It was like heaven.
No joke.
This kid Nick was down river fishing, and he wanted to go in the water.
It took him like twenty minutes to finally make a decision to jump in.
So he jumped in off the rock and he was like, "OHMYGODDD!! IT'S SO COLDDD!!!" and he couldn't see because he didn't have his glasses on so he went one way and couldn't get out, then another and he couldn't get out, and then finally he stood up and grabbed his penis and was like, "It's still there!!" and scrambled up onto the rock hugging his knees rocking back and forth saying, "I'm so cold! I'm so cold!"
It was the funniest thing ever.
Everyone was cracking up.
Of course you would have had to been there for it to be as funny as it was.
We stayed there for the rest of the day till it was time to go.
We got ice cream.
I got Purple Cow.
Which was Black Raspberry ice cream with white chocolate chips, and little blueberries in it.
Everyone was joking about how a cow had to die for me to eat that ice cream, and that I was eating a dead cow.
I fell asleep on the way back to school.
When I woke up Ashley was like, "Brittany, you look so cute when you sleeepp!! You sleep with your eyes half open!"
I was like, "Uh... I do??"
Ha..
So yeah..
That was the trip.
It was fun.
I love all the kids at my school.
I mean, they get on my nerves at times and I want to stuff socks down their throats, but..
I still love them.
When I got home my mom was sleeping, and Gavin was on my bed.
No one was excited to see me. ;_;
Sylvester didn't even come to see me, he stayed hidden somewhere.
I've got bug bites on my neck, and on the top of my head, and on my hand.
They're itchyy!
I didn't go to school today because I was supposed to go to the doctors to get my weight checked.
My mom didn't want to bring me though, when I had already stayed home thinking I was going to be going.
I need to get into driver's ed.
My mom is seriously starting to disappear in front of my eyes.
She's too afraid to drive anywhere now.
She's beginning to become afraid of everything.
I really can't rely on her anymore.
I already know I'm going to have to take care of her the rest of my life.
Which is fine, because I love my mom.
Sometimes I just wish she wasn't so ill.
Everyone gets mad at me when I won't go somewhere or do something, and it's because I'm afraid to leave her alone.
I hate having to leave her.
I'm afraid she'll kill herself or something.
Or she'll have a mental break down, and end up in the hospital while I'm gone.
I already have a feeling that she'll probably be going to the hospital for the whole summer.
Which will land me at my grandparent's house.
Which is far away from my friends, and I wouldn't be able to use the net, or sleep in like I like too.
I'd be forced to go to church too.
Bleh.
I just want to run away this summer.
To one place in particular.
Though I know that won't happen.
It's too far away, and I don't have enough money.
I wouldn't be welcomed there anyway.
I already know that.
I just want to be there so bad with that one person.
I want that person to be next to me so bad.
I want to converse with them face to face more than anything.
But..
That person hates me..
My mom found my iPod while I was gone.
It was in the couch.
Silly took it and hid it up in the couch.
There's a hole in the bottom of it, and he climbs up in it and sleeps there.
Gavin is in pain.
You can tell by her eyes.
They look so sad.
When she jumps up high she'll cry.
It's sad.
Her tummy looks weird too.
I wish I was here for her after the surgery.
She went through a life changing experience, and I wasn't here to comfort her.
I'm a bad momma. ;_;
Anyway..
This was a wicked long post.
I've been thinking about making a new MyO.
I don't know though.
It's not like many people still come on here.
Not many of my friends anyway.
Thanks to those of you who actually are still my friends, and still talk to me.
I love you guys.
Adios.
