The "Glorified" Girl's Camp

On Friday, the 3rd Ward Relief Society had a camp out. The events happened (approximatey) as follows:
8 p.m. Met in front of the little theater for car pools to Hauula
9 p.m. Set up tents in the back yard
10 p.m. Started HUGE bonfire in backyard, jumped on trampoline (the night was UNBELIEVABLE), ate heaps and heaps of junk food, played the best games ever (Ha ha game, the animal game, the color association game, and finally the "no teeth" game), and made banana boats in the BONFIRE!
12:30 a.m. Took a bathroom trip to a girl's house who lived nearby on the beach - BEAUTIFUL house - the DREAM beach cottage)10 girls piled into her tiny car, but we still made it.
1 a.m. Told Hawaiian ghost stories and other scary stories
2 a.m. Finally went to bed with Lauren P., Joanna, and Ali in our cozy tent
2:01 a.m. Heard rooster calls that sounded like screaming people, attempting to go to sleep, waited, waited some more, finally fell asleep
4 a.m. Was awakened by "screaming" roosters
6 a.m. Heard "screaming" once again
6:15 a.m. Began dozing in and out of sleep
6:30 a.m. The "screaming" roosters have become part of my dreams and I don't notice them anymore
7 a.m. Wake up for "sunrise" devotional/testimony meeting - we talked about the Relief Society's Birthday!
7:30 a.m. Pack up camp, listen to the roosters and the wild peacock communicate to each other
8:30 a.m. BREAKFAST! (The BEST meal of the day!) Included muffins, juice, milk, apples, oranges, and the yummiest french toast casserole I have ever tasted!
10 a.m. Beach - which was right across the street from the house we were staying at - we laid out, played frisbee, took pictures, swam...
1:30 p.m. Time to go home so we piled in the back of a truck and drove back to campus from Hauula
2 p.m. EXHAUSTED but HOME!
2:15 p.m. Shower... which felt oh so good!
