"Gooood morning campers! Today let's be thankful that God kept us alive this morning." Here comes another day. To prevent almost being late like yesterday, I sped up my morning prayer. After the regular Jesus calls we got hit with a quick remix that shocked me and probably all the other campers. I was sleepier than yesterday morning, and PG (PhoneGuy) came out. Not all consciences get sleepy like I do, but if PG was out long enough he would get tired too. We went back upstairs and I heard what our activity today was supposed to be. The "shoot out" was basketball. I'm terrible at basketball. I almost left my room without making my bed, but remembered last minute. That would have been a bad.
Nick is a new conscience, and he's getting some good character development through this camp. Another new conscience was going to get character development today, Yesman. While Bones hasn't been making appearances in these episodes, he's getting in his development time as well. So it's the 3 of them and me, plus Octavia. For breakfast I had some oatmeal and a sausage. I noticed the fruit punch was a little warmer than usual today. After lunch, we went to that classroom we've been going to. The bible bowl was later on today, so we were practicing for it. Unlike yesterday, Ms. Lane picked out names from a cup. Sorta like a raffle ticket. Luckily I wasn't called. I don't know why I say luckily, since I did study and probably would've been able to answer whatever I was given anyway. After the short trivia we had the reverend speak. He reviewed what he talked about yesterday with being careful about who's in your clique. Then he talked about knowing who you are and being true to yourself.
Reverend: Who am I?
Malachi: *Instinctively* I am somebody, I was somebody when I came, I'll-
Octavia: No honey that's for band, not outside life.
Reverend Jackson wanted us to wear mask for the rest of the day. There were characters like Thor, Captain America, and the transformers. I got a bumblebee one. Class was dismissed and I found it very hard to see out of just these 2 dots. My peripheral vision was gone. Reverend Jackson wore a mask too, it was one with glasses, a mustache, and a nose. There was a wind up on the nose that would make the mustache wiggle. Ms. Cooper called for me, and when I went over to her she asked me to play a small part in the play. The play was about the different ways people or the media sees love, and I would play as Mike Tyson, only saying "She married me for my millions." That meant I was in Drama Club now. Neat. The masks were getting ridiculous.
Malachi: What if other camps see us?
Nick: Who cares what they think?
In class we finished reading the packets and got an assignment. We would choose a person who we hate and find what things we love and hate about them. We would use their initials to keep who the person was private. Person to person, it evolved from the person in question being anonymous to everyone in the room knowing who it was or who it probably was. Needless to say, shade was thrown. We had another break before we went to the chapel. We had the official bible bowl this time. The boys won 10 to 3.
I can't believe it's already Thursday. There's just one more day left of camp after this. In all honesty, I don't want to leave. The characters here are so nice that I wish I had been able to hang out with them longer. Looking through my notes, I think I skipped writing about lunch, but I probably ate the same thing I always get, so lunch isn't really important. Music followed next. Alyssa was reading a Narrative thing and had just finished.
Alyssa: You're so... What's the word?
Gent: Descriptive.
Alyssa: Yes.
Gent: We hear it a lot. Anyway, I know I can't finish the rest of the episodes in these few days, since it took me so long just to finish that one. And also, the name 'Narrative' is such an open term, so you definitely won't find it that easily. The way I normally do it is by sending the link to it through messaging.
