Okay, so today I'm gonna be camping with Lyra (in the back yard D< wink .

Wednesday:

I went to camp, then my dad and Lyra came to pick me up. Since it was raining, we didn't go right to the Fallston pool like we'd planned. Went to my house, then when it stopped, (or really quite a while after, around six o' clock), we went to the pool and dad dropped us off. We had iPods, our books, towels and goggles packed in two bags (one for each of us obviously).
So we went up to the place where you sign in, and I wrote Hanson and a 2 beside it, then asked the old woman at the desk (******** her) for a guest pass. What happened went something like this:

Woman: How old are you?
Me: 14.
Woman: You have to be fifteen to use a guest pass.
Me; Really? I thought it was 14.
Woman: No. Is a parent with you? *peers around us*
Me: No. But my dad just dropped us off.
Woman: Maybe you can go catch him! *gestures with arm towards the parking lot*
Me: No, he's gone.
Me and Lyra: *walks off to a picnic table nearby*
Me (as I walk): He's already gone. We can't catch him.

I kinda get really angry, say a couple of cuss words and sit down with Lyra at the picnic table. We sit there for a little, talking about it (I think I was the one who talked the most though XD), then Lyra starts drawing and I flip her pencils in my hand, bored. We talk once in a while, and I call my dad in about twent minutes, (thats about how long it takes for him to get from home to the pool), but he doesn't answer. I call him again in another ten mins or so, and I think he responds to that one. If not, I either left a message and he got it or he got the next phone call. Of course, he gave me his cell phone, so that's why I couldn't call him while he was driving.
He came by, and said we couldn't get in, we had to go now cause it was getting late. I got pissed, but of course didn't say any cuss words in front of my father, then we went to my house. Lyra stayed at my house for a bit.
My parents, my mom particularily, said that we could camp in the woods with our smaller tent. She sent us out to look for a spot (while it was still light), and we found one pretty soon, not too far from the edge of the woods and close to the rock and stream too.
Then we hiked back up the hill, (that's right before you enter the woods, a little out from the house), in the heat, (I think), and did stuff (I don't remember what it was, I think it might have been watching a movie...yeah, it was something called "Microcosmos"...it was very interesting, though a bit awkward cause some of the bugs were like mating) until we had to take er home.

'Till now:

Not much in this section cause all i did was go to camp. Everything was normal in camp. I got to ride Nikki yesterday I think, cause Ms. Kathleen (riding instructor), wanted to see how her swollen foot or leg or something was. And she needed to see how my saddle fit her beforehand, and obviously it fit fine, cause she wore it when I rode her.
I think I found out yesterday morning that we were going to be camping in the backyard.

Today:

I took off camp for the day (had to tell Ms. Kathleen before of course) and sat up last night (I'll just count it for today cause I feel like it, but mostly because most of the time I was up was today, just very early) making bracelets and anklets for myself. Ya know, 'friendship bracelet' designs. All of the are gonna be the simplest design just cause it looks cool, and it's easiest and fastest for me to make. I made a red and black bracelet, a pale orange and lilac anklet and a light blue and yellow anklet. All the light colors go on my ankle, and he dark colors on my wrist. I have three more to make for my wrist.
Not too long ago we (my dad and I) set up the big tent (instead of the small cause we're camping in the backyard). It was too complicated for me to feel like explaining, but it was a lot of work, especially when it's ninety degrees out.
I can't wait until eight o' clock, when Lyra's coming over and we're gonna get stuff in the tent, go in it for the night and probably sneak out down to the woods to see what it would be like to sleep down there.

FOUR MORE HOURS! (which I will mostly be spending on the comp, probabaly)
Anyway....
FOUR MORE HOURS!!!
I'll tell you about it sometime tomorrow.

FOUR MORE HOURS!
