School Campy, w00t.
Oct. 20th, 2004 11:28 amDay 1, 20 Oct 2004
Got up waaay too early. Finished packing in huge rush, and Jenny had to buzz me out EVEN THOUGH her mum got lost on the way here. Picked up Shel and got dropped off at school where the coaches were waiting for our convenience.
Ours was a double decker - w00t! We sat at the top. My discman cut out like five songs later, so I listened to my Mp3 player and got chewed out by Nicky for singing. She, oddly enough, was listening to Final fantasy music. *muttergrumblerabidgamerfreaskgrumblemutter*
It was raining muchly and the mist was pretty. Went on Scenic Railway which was exactly as boring as it was last year, and also not very scenic due to the whole foggy windows phenomenon. Had lunch at the Three Sisters, which were pretty unspectacular looking, unlike the mist over the valleys, which was quite stunning and made me wish I had any talent for photography. There were also random rocks sticking out of the pavement with ostensibly poetic inscriptions on them. Quite frankly it was about as poetic as my stuff on a really blank day, with extra lame-arse.
Bathurst - cabins took WAAAY too long to sort out. We decided to cram all eleven of us into a fourperson room (after Diana had finished working out that there WERE eleven of us - honestly, for a selective school we so can't count). We ended up with two people per bed and five on the floor, except nicky got a bed to herself because she had a contagious disease. Well, a cold.
Melissa promptly walked in and broke Simones door with pleas for underwear. Fortunately Yi Fan has a strong kick and she managed to fix it (the door, not Mel, though that would also have been helpful).
We were herded into a hall with a group of primary school kids for a demonstration of the owners' prowess with sheep, and lame jokes. I came to the conclusion that a goat is a cross between a dog and a camel - although now I think about it that might be difficult.
With dinner came the traditional camp food complaints. It was actually quite edible, but I wouldn't reccommend anything green. Peas = smush, jello = well, jello. Jello is bad. Stole sugar packets.
Post-dinner was some kind of barn dance. Macarena/nutbush/YMCA style. Also limbo. Chloe was in more danger of hitting the stick with her breasts than anything else. Zoe appears to have a new girlfriend. My hair tried to mosh all by itself, but failed miserably due to the crappiness of the music. Girls who were running the thing also had very very crappy dance moves. And the place smelled like sheep.
We stayed up for a while talking about pr0n, and then I tragically fell asleep. Mustv been hell-a tired to miss that :P. Managed not to elbow Jenny (my matrass-passenger) but she said that I said "I cant" in my sleep, so I was probably dreaming about masha trying to annoyingly convince me to go to canterbury for no readily apparant reason. That is weird.
Quotes of the day: "Let me help you remove your jeans" "Wastwritch" "It's the same colour, except red" "Who votes we sleep with the donkey?"
