Field Trips: Camp MacLean



            So last year a majority of the 7th graders went to Camp MacLean, a name that I hate spelling because it's spelled one way but pronounced the other. Anyways the trip there was pretty fun, talking about cows and how Tarak's cousin supposedly created about everything. When we got there everyone was a bit confused because of cabins but we sorted it out quick enough. After everyone was sorted we ended up doing some fun activities such as archery, rock climbing, and fishing. In between some of the activities we had lunch and dinner, which was mostly good besides the tomato soup. That was a disaster. Though the bread sticks were probably the best food item there, even though my group kept messing around with them and ended up eating all of the bread sticks they had to serve, oops.
              Fun fact: our cabin members agreed we would be a small 'family', and Mia B was supposed to be the one responsible but ended up being least responsible during the night. Speaking of the night, we played capture the flag but it was rigged because the boys put their flag outside the boundary even though they weren't allowed to. It was sorta fun but it could've been better. When we went to rest Mrs.Conejo, our cabin supervisor,  had to go to a meeting thing so she left us alone for a while. It ended up being chaos, but not a first. First, we went in the back to tell ghost stories, but when that failed we played hide n seek. I tried hiding in a suitcase but that didn't work out so well. Then there was the problems with the spiders and moths. Three moths had gotten into our cabin somehow and everyone was panicking, so out of annoyance, I killed a moth by slapping it against the door. Everyone went quiet for a second, but only a second. As soon as they realized I wasn't scared of bugs, it was my duty to kill every single insect in the cabin. I killed as many as I could, but Mia's bed was an infestation of spiders. So what she did was bring her blanket over to the other side of the cabin between Aleks and I's bed, laid some chairs down, and slept there. The ironic part was that Mia was so scared of the spiders but had a blanket that had a spider pattern on it. After that everything else was pretty fun so I have nothing to complain about.
            Anyways that was my favorite field trip within the time I've been at Golf. I know this is a really late update, about a week late, but whatever. See you in a few days when I have to update again about 3 famous people I would like to meet. Bye-bye~!

Movie Review~ Featuring: Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events~!!



             ALRIGHT everyone buckle up because I'm about to take you on an adventure of a movie from 2004 that made up my childhood. Lemony Snicket's Series of Unfortunate Events is directed by Brad Silberling and included actors and actresses such as Jim Carrey(Count Olaf), Liam Aiken(Klaus Baudelaire), Emily Browning(Violet Baudelaire), and Kara and Shelby Hoffman(Sunny Baudelaire). The film is about 3 very intelligent kids, Violet(14), Klaus(12), and Sunny(3), who try to escape the cruel clutches of their relative, Count Olaf, who would do anything to acquire the inheritance their parents left behind after perishing in a fire. The kids make ways to escape Olaf yet keep themselves alive without any parental supervision, using the resources around them to their personal use in the best ways possible. They go through a lot of hardships and have to face some miserable things but together they get past it.
             The film is dark comedy but I can guarantee that it is worth watching(and reading!). I'm not very good at describing things but if you don't believe me check it out for yourself. I'm sad to say I don't know where you can watch the original movie but there's a series on Netflix that's about the same, just in parts and with different actors, obviously. I was fine with the Netflix series but it gives you such a different feel from the original. AnYWAYS, hope you check it out if you haven't already and I'll 'see' you next time I write. Bye-bye~!
