What I did During Summer Vacation

Today was my first day of eighth grade. For my first writing assignment, I am supposed to write about what I did during summer break, so here it goes:

The biggest thing that I did during summer vacation, was going to camp. In the town that I live in we have a campground that hosts multiple camps and reunions every year. I wasn’t planning on going to camp this year, but I felt like I needed to. When I found out that my sister (who’s 18) was going to staff at this camp, I was then thinking about going. I was praying about it to see if God wanted me to go or not, and the answer I got was yes, I needed to go.

The theme was “We’re Marching To Zion”. (Did I mention that this was a Christian church camp?) I learned a lot of things about Zion that I had never known or even thought about before. I had a lot of fun, and I got to meet a lot of new people. Since I am homeschooled, I don’t really talk to people that are my age. (I could if I wanted to, but I’m not a very social person.) It was nice meeting new people and making new friends.

I took a crafts class where I made some pretty cool things like hydro dipping flower pots, tie dying, and more. We also got to swim every day if we wanted to, but I chose to just hang out with my friends and play games instead because I’m not a big fan of swimming.

The hardest part about going to this camp was that I didn’t get to see a dog for a whole week! How tragic is that? ;p This camp was from June 20th to the 26. If you don’t know, My birthday is the 20th, so I went to camp on my birthday. The camp directors found out, and they made the whole entire camp sing me happy birthday. Talk about embarrassing! ._.

Over all I really enjoyed this camp, and I’m happy that I decided to go. What Have you been doing during the summer? Put it in the comments. I would love to read what fun things you’ve done. Have a fantastic day!!!
