Retreat 2013 !

This retreat was really fun!  But what sucked is I didn't have my phone for 3 whole days ):  I was bombed with messages when I turned my phone on!  Well, we played kemps and spoons, with Jahlyssa's cards.  We went crabbing, and did out talent and chopped.  We made mobiles and memory jars.  Our talent I have to say went pretty good, but I kept laughing!  Also what we made for chopped actually tasted good.  I'm surprised how it all turned out.  These past three days went by slow.  At the house was freezing cold!  Every morning, once we went outside it was windy and I was freezing.  Especially at night time.  We were all looking for crabs and diving for them! (x It was so funny.  But I hated when the crabs went into the water and we couldn't find them.  We made sand mans, and a volcano of sand.  It ended up really huge. I wonder how it is right now.  Haha, oh well. Sadly, the crab in my memory jar just died ): RIP crab #101.  LOL.  But I really am going to miss that house.  But it sucked that both of my pairs of slippers broke.  The house was huge!  Luckily I got to sleep in the cot.  It was pretty comfortable, but I choose my bed to sleep on over anything else!  Well, I really miss my parents and my family, but sadly when I got home my parents were long gone.  But I'm really tired right now, and I'm trying to finish it before tomorrow!

The highlight of the retreat would have to be when we were playing spoons.  Everyone was fighting over the fruit by the food and whatever was in the middle!  Korey just jumped out of no where and grabbed it!  I was laughing so hard.  Also, everyone was screaming at 8:00 at night.  We were all fighting over the "spoons" in the middle.  Once someone grabbed the "spoon" , everyone else screamed and fought over the "spoons" in the middle.  It was funny when Mr.Ing kept screaming, then everyone fought for the "spoons."  We were all playing rough xD  But it was still fun.  But what I hated is when I broke my slipper.  While I was walking back from crabbing, my slipper broke and I tripped.  The I lost 5/6 crabs that Me and Khrizz caught sadly ):  We worked hard for those crabs!  Those crabs are lucky my slipper broke!  Ugh, now I have no slippers left to use.  Now I want to go back and catch more crabs.  Then I will torture them to get out my anger.  Lol, just joking!  I'm not that cruel.

The lesson I learned is the always go for whatever you want, and don't be afraid to do it because it will hold you back.  I learned this from crabbing!  If I didn't go and dive for the crabs, I wouldn't have caught it.  Also while playing cards.  You don't make an effort to grab the "spoon" someone else could grab it and you would lose.  In a lot of cases, if you don't try to do get what you want, you most likely won't get it.  You always need to try.  That way it would most likely end in a success.  So try you hardest, and you could get what you want in life.  Maybe even win some games and competitions.  If you want to win, you would try you best to reach for success.  Did I just rhyme in that sentence?  LOL.  But you should always make an effort to do something, and make an effort to get what you want.  But not something ridiculous.  Like taking over the world!  But always try and do your best.  This lesson could help you in any case.
