Camps are often disappointing aren’t they? If they aren’t, they are surprisingly not awful.Whether it’s a school camp or some random summer camp, it’s highly likely that the accommodation is bad, the activities are mediocre at best and that the food is bad and you swear you could have gotten food poisoning from it. Where I live the only real campsites you get, that don’t require you to pitch a tent, are Christian Camps. I’m not saying Christian Camps are bad, although I’m not much of a believer you could say, it’s just that if you were a kid who really wanted to go on a Summer Camp with all your mates, would you really want to have to got to a chapel service for half an hour to an hour every morning/evening? Seriously, someone needs to invest in an organisation that runs camps that aren’t religiously inclined. They would make a killing, honestly the fact that someone hasn’t already done it is a mystery to me.
What put me onto this topic was the fact I went on camp. It was all of the things I have stated above, such a shame. However, some of the activities were alright. Archery was one of the ones that weren’t so good. The instructor who took us out, taught us to pull the string back wrong. I know it was wrong because I have done archery a few times, and on those few times it was at a special archery place where knowing about archery was part of the job description. So that was frustrating the hell out of me for an hour and a half. Not fun.
That was a really good, although somewhat short, rant. If you aren’t one to listen/read about a rant and actually find it frustrating I’m sorry. I have never liked camps like the ones stated above very much. At all. EVER. Sorry I haven’t posted to much recently. It probably won’t be any more consistent. I will just write when I have the time (which isn’t a common occurrence at the moment), but fear not, I haven’t given up already. I’m going to try keep this up with a weekly update (roughly) of varying lengths. Whatever happens just accept it ’cause it happened.
I hop you’re having a lovely morning, afternoon or evening wherever you are!
Lots of Ranty Love
