It was another day of camp. Just boring old camp with only Rebbecca and I in our group. I missed our friends that left. We always told each other everything and never hid our emotions to each other.

Flashback

"C'mon guys! Let's go to dace!" Kristen yelled from the pavilion. "Coming!!!" Alicia yelled back for us. We walked down the hill to dance and Kristen mentioned that we were going to do an exercise. "Uuuuch! I'm too tired!" I said. "It's not a physical exercise.. it's an emotional one." she told us. Kristen opened the door and on the stage there were blank flash cards and pencils. "Guys let's sit in a circle." she told us. As we sat down I grew more curious. "So.. what are we doing?" Marianne asked. "Take a pencil, and flash card and write down all of the negative things that people have ever said about you." Kristen told us, as she put on karaoke of slow sad songs.. as most as if it were a movie. I smiled, and I almost giggled because I thought that it was kinda dumb to make it seem like we are in a sad high school movie. I wrote: "Mean, brat, pig, fat girl, and horrible singer." The music  made us more sad as we wrote down all of the negative, mean things that people have said about us.. and a tear rolled down my face. "Are you.. ok-k-kay?" Rosie asked me right before she got emotional. "Y-y-ya.. it's just my allergies." We got pretty emotional and all ended up crying. We realized that we shoudn't caer what people thought of us. From that point, we all trusted eachother.

(Flashback Ends)

I was tired.. VERY tired. So tired that I could just fall asleep while I was walking up hill to art. We got to art and had art with my brother and cousin's group. Then my heart jumped. It was as if I had a sensor that.. that.. Riley was here. "Oh.. uh.. hi" I said shyly and waved. He waved back, but gave me a look as if he didn't know who I was. He was by the swings and I tried my best not to stare at him. I was a pretty good actress. Rebbecca, Kristen, and I pained flower pots. I painted mine pink and blue, with glitter. When I finished my art teacher who had the same name as me gave me another project to do. After I finished I fell asleep and layed my head on top of my bag, which was on the table. Jimmy announced on the speaker that camp had ended for the day. Michael walked by with his older sister Cara. "Heeeeeeeeey Cara." I said while yawning. "Hey Skylar! What's up!" she said. "Well, I am really tired, and I barely got any sleep. My brothers and cousins were playing video games all night, reaaaaaally loudly, and I barely got such shut eye." I said. "Well.. I hope you get more sleep tonight because it's really hard to hang out and talk to someone who is half asleep." she said. "Haha.. alright I'll see you later." I said right before I walked to the car when camp was ending. I waved to Michale and Cara form the car, and we drove home. I ate, took a shower, and went to sleep. Finally.. sleep.
