Day 9

Ok so honestly I'm writing about days 9-11 at the same time because I had no internet so I was't able to blog, but here we go


We woke up fairly early for breakfast and a few ice breakers and one of the ice breakers was a game called huggie bear.  It was super awkward at first because you have to hug a bunch of different people you've just met, but it turned out to be super fun.  We had lunch and then we left for the camp site. The bus ride there was a little scary because buses are big and scary and feel like they will flip over at any moment in time.  But when we arrived to the pilgrim village (I believe that is what it is called) I saw how beautiful it was and it made me smile.

We walked over to our cabins and put our stuff down then headed over to the lodge that we did most of our activities in.   I wish I remember in more detail what more of the activities were, but I can't really and I don't really want to go into it, but we did a mirror exercise that challenged people to say good things about themselves and gave us to see how other people viewed themselves.  The thing about the activity was I actually didn't see myself.  I was the first person to go so I went really quickly and all i saw was an empty box. It kind of sucked, but I was able to learn something from it either way.  I learned that you shouldn't rush new things, time passes quickly, but it won't leave you behind if you don't let it.

We did some group exercise and then we had dinner which ended up being spaghetti and was surprisingly good.  I normally only eat my mom's spaghetti so I was delighted by the taste. Plus I was starving.  After dinner there was this really good skit about hate and it was so nice to hear what everyone was thinking after. and then it was shower time and bed time for me.  I don't know I guess when there's no alchy I can't hang.
