Today was the day! Yes, the day we go camping. Smelling the fresh air, sleeping in cabins.
"Okay, today is the day we go camping at Camp Grey. So, is everyone ready?," said Mrs.
Blossum. Everyone answered yes. But of course, me and my best friend, which is Hailey,
bought our backpacks and stuffed most of the stuff we might need, such as things like,
maps, notebooks, pencils, water bottles, not purfume or anything, that makes bugs go
crazy! Okay, so let me tell you all the girls and boys in my class. Heres the girls; Emma,
Gaby, Meg, Sami, Monica, Helena, Sabrina, and Aly. Me and Hailey were the two other girls.
Oh, did I mention there was ten girls and ten boys? Yeah, pretty large class, but I had bigger. The boys; Sam, William, Tuck, John, Brian, Nathan, Mat, Tom, Ryan and Zac.

"Okay then, we're going to have buddies. No girls and girls and no boys and boys," Mrs.Blossum said. Oh, this was going to be great! But also, I also bought some important stuff too, just in case. It was pretty much everything upset beauty stuff, but I bought chap stick. "Cindy, your with Tom," Mrs.Blossum said. I winked. My best friend winked, which is Haily, winked. Oh, I forgot to tell you, Tom is my crush, I've liked him since 3rd grade! Amazing, huh? Yeah. I guess it is amazing. Oh and to tell you, Hailey liked Zac. He was Tom's best friend, and one of the cutest boys in the class. Well, actually, Tom and Zac were the cutest, but I like Tom better. So, then, Mrs.Blossum said, "Hailey, your with Zac." Wow, this must be awesome luck! Oh yeah, I forgot, it was Helena's mom, and she much know's everyone's crush. Pretty much, I do too. Emma likes Sam. Gaby likes William. Meg likes Tuck. Sami likes John. Monica likes Brian. Helena likes Nathan. Sabrina likes Ryan. Course, I like Tom, and Hailey likes Zac. Mrs.Blossum continued on with her partners things. And everyone got their crush, and Mrs.Blossum bought in her husband, too. Oh and Aly, she likes nobody.

"Cindy, Tom, Hailey, and Zac. You guys sleep in the same cabin. Emma, Sam, Gaby, and William. You guys sleep in the same cabin. Meg, Tuck, Sami, John. You four sleep in the same cabin. Monica, Brian, Helena, and Nathan. You four sleep in the same cabin. Sabrina, and Ryan, you sleep with Mr.Blossum and me,"Mrs.Blossum exclaimed. I was totally excited. Hailey text messaged me on her phone, but of course, nobody heard. It said, 'I am so excited. Our crushes, with us, sleeping together!.' I texted back, 'I know, amazing huh?.' So then, we lined up to the bus to get on, and we all sat in the back. Tom and me were sitting near each other. So was Hailey and Zac.

Then we arrived. At Camp Grey. Everyone's cabin we would look at would be huge. Huge as fifteen tents. Five on the bottom, middle, and the top. I opened the door with my keys. We 'wowed' and 'awesomed' and complimented the place. "Yes! There is a girls' and a boys' bathroom. Now we won't have to share!," I yelled out really loud. Everyone was agreeing. Awesome! Then, I unpacked and so did everyone else. I took out my diary out of my backpack in Tom's and my room. Course, He bought his diary out too, but it was a boy's diary they just made. Cool with racecars, sports, and more. We smiled and began. And, everytime I start writing in my diary, I write both in print and cursive, just for fun.

Dear Diary, 4/25/2007
Me and my crush, Tom, are buddies and sharing the same cabin with Hailey and Zac. But do you know something amazing? Everyone got their crush as their buddies, too. I changed my clothes. Inside of the suitcase was underwear, tee-shirts, skirts, pants, socks, some sandles, and much much more. Inside of my backpack was the maps, notebooks, pencils, water bottles, not purfume or anything else like that. But Tom and Zac are super cute and I cannot believe we are sharing the cabin. I really really would like Tom to like me back the way I like him, and Zac to like Hailey to like her the way she does. It would be really cool! Oh well, hopefully, that won't happen.
Love,
Cindy Brooks

I smiled at Tom. He was smiling back at me. So, I heard tomorrow was going to be seventy-eight degrees. Good day, good year, what else could be better? So, I tucked into my bed, with comfy pillows, and warm blankets, told Tom, 'Good-night, don't let the bed bugs bite' and I laughed. He laughed. And then, I took out my stuffed animal and slept. Tom woke me up, and then said, "Cindy, wake up. C'mon! We're going swimming!" I was amazed, luckily I had my swimsuit. So, I went to the restroom, brushed my teeth, went to take a bath, in my towel, and went into my room and saw Tom in there, and screamed, "Ahhhh! Can you at least get out? I'm trying to get my clothes and swimsuit!" He nodded fastly and ran into Zac's room. I grabbed my swimsuit and clothes and my backpack and went back to the bathroom. I changed into my swimsuit first, I put some extra clothes into my backpack, put on my other clothes on top of the swimsuit and got ready. I dried my hair and then once I finished, Tom was inside our room again. He said, "I am so so sorry! I didn't mean to go into here while you were trying to get your clothes," and then hugged me. I blushed but he didn't see.

I grabbed his clothes for him, and his swimsuit, and then gave it to him. "Thanks," he said and ran into the boy's bathroom. After that, Zac and Hailey were inside the bathrooms. Hailey took a shower, dried herself, put on her swimsuit, put extra clothes into her backpack, and then put clothes over. I got no idea what the boys did, but it must've been crazy! I heard laughter and screams and excitement. Man, what are they doing? I got my sandels inside my backpack and then put in my tennis shoes and socks in their just in case, and then put on my other sandels that were only for camping. Then, I heard a voice. I looked behind and then Tom said, "Nice swimsuit, I really mean it."

"Oh my goodness, that happened to me too! Zac said, 'nice swimsuit'! Isn't that kinda weird? It kinda seems like they sort of like us," Hailey exclaimed. Then I put my backpack On the ground, and then put waterproof plastic on it. I took of my clothes and then put them inside the backpack. I jumped into the swimming pool and was laughing. Hailey was scared, because she never jumped off high places, before. I yelled to her, "Come on, Hailey, the water is fine! Don't worry, it'll be fun!" She nodded okay. We all moved to the side. Then, she yelled down, "If I embarress myself in front of the entire class, I'll never talk the rest of the week, OK?" I nodded yes, sadly. I contacted everyone the secret sign that meant, pretend that you like it, if you don't like it. They all contacted okay. She jumped down, made a high dive, and everyone loved it! Nobody pretend and we all clapped. I screamed out, "Yay, Hailey!" She was happy.

I got out of the pool and changed around a non-public area. Course, it was the gir;s' bathroom in my cabin. Everyone else was swimming, at least that was what I thought. So I changed, put my stuffed animals, Bunny and Snappy away in my backpack and then got ready to go. I also got out my tennis shoes and socks and put them on. I went out of the bathroom tying my belt, and bumped into Tom, but this was worst..We accidently kissed. We stopped a second later. I screamed, "I am so so sorry! I didn't mean to do that!" then I ran to my bed with my face on the pillow. His hand touched my shoulder. "I know that you didn't mean it, but that was really awkward," he said, but confused. I smiled. Later, the entire class went hiking me and Tom were near each other the entire day, laughing and telling forest jokes, stories and much more. But, of course. Hailey and Zac were walking behind us and talking with us, too.

Three hours later, it was exactly nine O'clock, in the night. I got dressed, into my camping pajamas, extra thick and warm. I took out my diary again. Just as always, but this time, Hailey was in here with me, writing in her diary too, but not looking at mine, and when she was done, she would go to sleep. Then I began to wrote..

Dear Diary, 4/26/06
Did you just believed what happened? It was totally amazing, and I'll never forget it. Never ever forget it, but I cannot tell anyone else. Okay, this is what happened. I was walking, without looking, I accidently kissed Tom. Yes! I accidently did, but he made me feel bettter after I kind of cried. That was really really amazing, but kind of sad. What if figures out that I like him? That would be so embarressing, and if he spreads, or anyone hears, everyone will figure out, and make fun of me for life! I just hope it goes good.
Love,
Cindy Brooks

Do you know someone kind of cool? Hailey let's me see her diary. Awesome huh? Well this is what she wrote..shh!

Dear Diary,
This is the first camping trip I've ever been too. I never actually told anyone but upset Cindy, my best friend, as you know that. I really like Zac, and he complimented me, with a nice swimsuit. I really really like him. HOPE he likes me back.
Diary
Hailey Parks

Yes, she has a little. Well, thats her hobby. To have little diary notes. Cool huh? Well, I like her as well too. I think she is very nice. I already knew that she liked Zac, and never been camping before,
but yeah.

Then I asked Tom, "Hey, can I see your diary?"
"I'm sorry, but I have secret stuff nobody should know about. Zac knows,
but nobody else," he said. I understood and said "Okay, that's fine."
Then, Hailey was rushing into the rooms and smiled at Tom and ran to me.
She whispered to me, "Cindy, Tom likes you! Zac just told me. And I wanted to tell you!"
I looked at her, winked, and looked at Tom, I winked again, and looked at Tom.
"Are you seriously telling the truth?," I questioned her.
She whispered quietly, but in a loud way, "YES!"

Then, I asked Tom, "hey Tom, can you please please get out of this room a minute? I need to change."
He looked confused and said, "Okay..umm..sure"
He left the room and I grabbed his key, opened it to the diary, and then opened it and tried to find the page.
"There! I found it!," I exclaimed.
I know this isn't right, but I had to know.
So I read,

Dear Diary,
I really really like Cindy. She doesn't know, but I and Zac does. Should I tell her at the end of the camping trip? Or should I never tell her? Oh please help me, my diary. Or.. should I just like someone else? Please please help me. I really like this girl since I ever saw her. I really want her to like me. Please help me.
Diary friend,
Your friend in need,
Tom

"Oh my gosh. Tom likes you?, " Hailey shouted very loudly, anyone in the room would be torn to death! "I.. I.. I..," I stumbled. "Quick! Tom's coming!," She whispered, but very loud. I ran, put his diary into his suitcase. I ran over to my bed and Hailey and me pretended to talk, like, "Oh yeah! That is so cute!" Then Hailey would be saying, "Yeah! I want a puppy really badly!" And, I would be like, "Totally!"

I started to stare at Tom. He looked kinda of really confused. I asked him, "What's wrong?" He stared at me, and then said quietly, "Is something going alright in here? I heard a loud screech."
I thought before I said anything.. "Maybe I should tell Tom I went into his diary. I mean, seriously, that is so rude!" And before I said, "Maybe" something came in the door.

"What's that?," Hailey asked. "I got no clue! Let's check it out!," I yelled as I got curious. Tom, he looked at me. He ran into the door. As Hailey and I followed, Hailey screamed, "ZZAAAACC!!!! WATCH OUT!!!" Zac looked behind and saw that there was poisionous snake behind him, almost biting him.

Zac jumped away, and we all ran into Tom and my room. "Thanks for saving me," Zac said while I was really scared and tired, while Tom was checking that I was okay. Hailey was really scared and calmed down and said, "Hey.. That's whats good class-mates do!" Suddenly there was a yell from Mrs. Blossum saying, "Tom, Zac, Hailey, Cindy!! Pack up your bags, we're leaving!! There is poisionous snakes attacking every camp site!" We all stared at each other and packed everything together.

I packed my things inside my backpack, where they belonged. I packed my clothes where they had belonged. I check Hailey, she was ready. I checked on Zac, he was ready. I put on my boots, my coat, and put on my backpack. I helped Hailey and Zac on their coats and boots. I checked on Tom, he wasn't ready. I quickly helped him without saying a whole word the entire time. He was ready. Everyone was ready.

We all ran to the bus and we sat down quickly. Bump. Bump. I thought to myself, "Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. That was so terrifying!" Here we are, at the school. Then I walked up to Tom and said, right in front of Zac and Hailey, I said, "Tom.. I.. I.. I really liked you!" He looked surprised. He suddenly hugged me, and I smiled and hugged him back.

And that was the trip, to Camp Grey.
The End.
Sorry if it was SO long. But it took me a week to finish it. I know, it's pretty bad, too. But I write ALOT of books, just for my friends in real life. But, then, I said, why not show alot of people? It's just a couple minutes to read. So, I did the entire story on Micorsoft Word, first, then pasted it on here.

It said it'll do cursive, but it didn't it doesn't work on here, so just please imagine it!
Sorry for that. But anyways, Night!
