CHAPTER 7:CAMPING FEVER

~~9 MAY 2016~~

"Okay girls. Listen up," my class teacher, Mrs White said as we looked at her.
"Next week, there will be a camp for two days. We will be going to a camping site a little far. Tomorrow we will be having a short discussion about what we will do and all. We will also give permission letters for your parents to sign only when you are allowed to come. This is for the Standard 5 students only. If there are not enough students, then we will ask the Standard 4 students to join. Are you guys okay with it?
"Yes, Mrs White,"

We all gathered at the assembly hall waiting for our teachers to tell us more about the camping trip. Petunia and Denise each were sitting beside me along with our other friends. I told my mum about the trip and she instantly agreed to let me go.

"Good afternoon students," Mrs Arion said.
"Good afternoon Mrs Arion, " we chorused.
"So, as you all know we will be having a camp this Saturday and Sunday. There's a camp training site at Maxwell Hill. We will train a lot of surviving skills and camping skills. You will be in groups so, no worries. Since a lot of Standard 5 students are not coming, we will ask Standard 4 to join. You aren't allowed to bring any electronic devices. You shouldn't use them there. Not even the portable fan. And make sure you have all the necessities. You will be given a list of things to bring. We will hand out the consent form. Make sure you guys bring it tomorrow."

Mrs Rendall then handed out the consent forms. Petunia and I read the forms and looked at each other. "You'll all be in groups of five and you can choose your members. You can choose from any classes,"

Petunia and I discussed the group with our other friends. "I won't be coming," Denise said. "My mum wouldn't let me," So, we all concluded that Tina, Daisy, Jane and a few others from different classes will be in the same group while Petunia, Violet, Bessy and I would be in a group. We sat in the group and a Standard 4 girl was assigned to our group. Great.

I was packing my things for tomorrow with Mum. I was excited and a little sad at the same time. I will for sure miss my bed, my pumpkin plushie, my toy dog--yes, I still have him. I will miss home-cooked food which is my favourite and of course, I will miss my family members.

"How are you feeling about tomorrow?"
"I don't know. I will miss you,"
"You can call me,"
"I'm not allowed to bring my phone?"
"You can still bring it,"
"What if they take it?"
"Okay.Sleep now. You have to wake up early tomorrow,"
"Good night, Mum,"
"Good night, darling,"
"Sweet dreams,"
"Sweet dreams,"

Mum kissed me goodnight as I hugged my plushie closer and closed my eyes, drifting to dreamland.

Currently, we are sitting on the bus while our teachers were taking everyone's attendance. Petunia and I took our seats in the fifth row on the left side of the bus. Petunia wanted the aisle seat so I took the window seat. We looked out the window and could see both our parents. Petunia's parents and my mum were standing near the bus. Petunia's mum had just returned from work for the holidays. She was sad she couldn't spend much time with her Mum.

I saw Dad sitting at the bus stop on his phone. Mum looked at me and waved. I waved back, a smile on my face. "Ok, girls. We will start our journey."Mrs White said as the bus started moving. We waved goodbye to our parents. It takes a few hours to reach our destination so some of us decided to rest a bit. Petunia laid her head on my shoulder as I was listening to songs. I pulled off one of my earplugs and plug it in her ear then adjusted myself so that she will be comfortable. The soft music played as I looked out the window.
