This is a letter written from a ten-year-old boy called Mike to his parents from summer camp. It was made by the author when they were nine years old, so beware.
Dear Mum and Dad,
I'll just get straight to the point- I HATE this camp! I've got, like, a billion reasons to say this and I bet you're gonna think this place is horrible too!
Firstly, the food they serve is absolutely disgusting! They say it's gonna "help our minds" but seriously, it's more like poison than nutrition! As well as that, it hardly fills my stomach- if it carries on like this, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna die of starvation soon.
And the weather is always rubbish: either it's raining or windy. The advert for the camp must've been lying- this place seems more like a winter camp than a summer one!!! I'm surprised no one has caught a cold from the rain yet. Also, the weather makes it HARDER to focus on my HOMEWORK, and all the other activities. You know what? I'm literally shivering as I write this!
And if you see the cabins, I bet you'll faint. They're horrible, and they're literally falling apart! With the bad weather, it's like you're living on the forest floor itself! Insects galore, home of the spiders, everything that makes your spine shiver- and we're sleeping in it!
Lastly, the activities here are SO BORING they make me fall asleep! Everyone else seems to enjoy it, so I BET they're being brainwashed by the food (it all fits)! If you don't believe me (which is probably the case), then here's my schedule:
Monday: Get up, eat breakfast, walk a mile, eat lunch, walk another mile, eat dinner and go to sleep.
Tuesday: (Same as Monday)
Wednesday: (Same as Tuesday)
Thursday: (Same as Wednesday)
Friday: (Same as Thursday)
Saturday: (Same as Friday)
Sunday: (Same as Saturday)
AND THE CYCLE REPEATS. Do you see my point? Everything we do here is BORING and SLEEP-INDUCING!!!!!!!!
In conclusion, could you PLEASE bring me home? If I spend another day here, I'll go mad! And yu won't have to waste your money, so it'll help you as much as it will help me.
Your dying son,
-Mike
