Day 1: June 27



Today begins the first in our series of student blogs. They are working on blogging in their ELA classes, so the posts will be a couple days late. Enjoy the first one, by Jeremy!

When we woke up we came to Nativity, the bus was there early. After that Father Jack blessed the bus and our parents waved us goodbye. When we were on the bus it took a long time to get to camp. When we arrived, we went to the basketball court to play some get-to-know games. When we finished, we went to unpack. Afterwards, we had a mini group discussion, then we ate dinner, then we had a couple of minutes of free time. After we had our fun time we went to the main hall to talk about the rules that we already knew, the staff also had a surprise for us, and they took us to the campfire. It was special because it was the first campfire on the first day in the history of Camp Monserrate, then we went to sleep to save our energy for the next day.

  2. Joelve, you're bored because you don't know how to give yourself anything to do. Maybe you're just used to someone else doing that for you? Get used to REAL LIFE, mostly guided by voluntary initiative. Like for example choosing to go to camp, which you should've been entitled to in the first place (if it weren't for compulsory schooling laws and parental hegemony).

    Wowzers. When's gonna be a campfire on the first day of camp--with marshmallows?
