The Camping Trip.
By: Samantha Coles



Turn the page and we can start.

I wrote this for all my friends that love camping much as
I do. Which is allot.

“Samantha wake up” Mom said “Or do I have to come in there and drag your butt out of bed because you know I will!”
I must’ve slept thou my alarms again today wait no alarms it’s the first day of summer “Coming mom” I said as I stumbled out of my room a littlie confused. “OMG what are you all doing here we don’t leave for that big camping trip until next Saturday. Mom what are they all doing here?” I said thinking we had one more week tell the big trip and now more confused. “Yah Sam it is next Saturday but we have to go get supplies for the camping trip,” Emily said. “Oh” I said feeling dumb. I’m not confused now. But I wonder why they didn’t call. Not like Emily, Megan, and Caitlin haven’t seen me in my pajamas, because they have, but I was sleeping. You know how it is first day of summer and you wont to sleep in but you cant. “Sam go get dressed we don’t have all day well we do yet we don’t cuz we still have to meet the boys and have lunch” Caitlin said as she was picking out what she wants me to wear. “Wait we have lunch with the boys today I thought that was tomorrow.” I’m dressed now and confused again. “Sam come on we have to go we need to get this all done today” Megan said as I was grabbing my purse and my flip-flops. I wonder why there in such a hurry I mean its only 6:30 in the morning, I don’t even think the stores are open yet. “I’m hungry” I said as we pulled out of my driveway. “We’ll get breakfast at McDonalds in Preston” Preston? Oh I know there’s that big begging of summer sale in Maple Grove at all the stores. Were at McDonalds now. “Welcome to McDonalds how may I help you?” Said the person at the window, “We’ll have four number nine’s and four Cappuccinos please” Megan said, “Will those be regular or decaf?” Said the person at the window, “regular” we all said, “Ok so

    It started out like any other day. I got out of bed and scrambled to get out the door after I took an extra hour in the shower. I hopped into a seat next to my best friend Erin. We talked for the ten minute ride before finally arriving at school. I sat down in homeroom waiting for the bell to ring. Brrriinnngggg! I rushed to Mrs. Gregory’s room for Lit. Everything was fine until gym class. I had forgotten my assignment notebook in Mrs. Saphir’s room so I ran back upstairs to get it from under my chair. As I started to walk back towards the locker room I heard the bell ring… late! I walked into the locker room hoping Mrs. Dennis wouldn’t notice my tardiness, but my locker is right next to her office. I quickly filled out a minor for before…

    “Morgan calls Pierce to come back: Pierce we need you and Matt to come back ASAP! There’s a problem- this that and the third.” Sam switches back to his normal voice. “Luckily it only took them five minutes because they were around the corner at the Walmart. So Matt comes back in and most of the people from the party are gone; Morgan kicked them out while they were waiting for him to come back. It’s only people from our school really-like 10 of us.”…

    32 “Well its actually happening ma’, I’m goin’ back to school.”Rufus said. “I want you to know, I truly am proud of you Rufus.” His mother replied. Curtis and Janet went to a different school then Rufus but he still walked them to school then walked himself to school. On his way to school a car followed him very slowly but Rufus kept walking. When he got to school it looked the same on the outside that it always had. Rufus pushed open the doors at Searingtown School and yelled “I’m back!” All of his friends ran over to hug him. He went down to the office to get a tour he thought he didn’t need because he remembered every single solitary thing about this place. While the tour was going on everything going on was a blur. He looked left, right and left again, admiring the changes the school had made. “Wow” he sighed. “Is there a problem Rufus?” the tour guide asked. Rufus answered, “When I was here the wall paint was all chipped, there were broken windows and holes in the walls.” “Oh ok, well that concludes our tour and this door on your right is your first period class.” The tour guide replied. Rufus walked in and sat at an available seat at the back of the class room. He opened his notebook and took notes even though he didn’t understand anything that was going on. By the time 5th period came around it was time for lunch he was starving. All of his friends called him over and asked him to sit with him. Momma didn’t make him a big lunch because they didn’t have that much food in the house and then needed to split it 3 different ways. Allison who used to have a big crush on Rufus sat right next to him. Mitchell and Charlie sat across from him and Christina, Alisha and Sammy sat around them. When the bell rang he went to his locker and when he got to class he looked out the window and saw the same car that followed him to school. The only person he thought of was Simon. But he didn’t have a car? Rufus ran to the office to explain the…

    "Hi! Welcome to Panera Bread, only two?" The hostess looked at us both and I gave her a warm smile, nodding my head. She smiled, grabbing two menu's and walking us to a table outside. I grinned, hoping she would let us sit outside. It was a nice day, considering it was fall. We sat down in our seat and she sat the menu's down. "Okay, so what would you ladies like to drink?"

    "Not again!" I protested when I heard Mom's news. "Where are we going this time?" We've moved six times in the twelve years since I was born. That's because my Dad's job is to set up offices for his company, and each time he finishes establishing a new one, we move. "California," said Mom. "I'm sorry we have to uproot you again." She opened a map and pointed out the town we'd be moving to, north of San Francisco. She truly sounded sorry, but I could see she was pleased, too, because she's from California. She'd always said Chicago was too noisy for her. For one thing, the elevated railway wasn't far from our apartment. Whenever the trains rumbled past, the chandelier in our living room swung to and fro. My stomach felt full of cold lead. You'd think I'd be used to moving, but I felt sick every time. Now I'd have to say good-bye once more to the friends and places I'd just come to feel comfortable with. Plus, Chicago was the most exciting place we'd lived. It had everything—great parks, libraries, museums, skating rinks, and playing fields. Only five blocks from home was the Youth Center, where I played volleyball or board games or just hung out joking around with friends. That day, after learning the news, I went straight to the Youth Center to find my friends. Their smiles turned into gloomy frowns when I said I'd be leaving in a few weeks. We grumbled about my bad luck. Finally, Eric said, "Moaning and groaning isn't going to change anything. Can anyone say something good about this move?" Sarah piped up, "Well, Megan…you'll be lying on a warm beach while we're still slogging through the snow." I pictured myself lazing on a stretch of white sand, a gentle blue sea rocking before me and palm trees rustling behind me. I could go for that. "Just think," added Josh, "no freezing rain or sub-zero temperatures." "No tornados. No blizzards," contributed Kayla. "Just lovely, sunny days." "Yeah. All you have to worry…

    his is one of the best camping stoves I have ever seen. It's built to last a lifetime and I consider it the Cadillac of all camping stoves. It's the Brunton Wind River Range™and this two burner stove has an individual burner output of 15,000 BTUs. I like the fact that it has a windshield built in. There is nothing more difficult than cooking outdoors when the wind is blowing, but this stove can be moved so that the windshields protect the flame from strong winds, and cooking will be fast and efficient.…

What do you mean Charlotte I already told you guys what she does for work, she's a scientist who studies animals. No she's not, she's probably a mad scientist or super-villain. Why do you think she was hiding her job for so long. Charlotte that's crazy, Jeff said. Then, why do you think she's been hiding what she does at work for so long. Guy's I think we should follow her to work and ditch school, Jeff said. No, it will be bad for my grades, Bianca said. It's the only way to find the truth, said Jeff. Fine, said Bianca. Let's meet at Henry's house tomorrow morning at 7:00am. Ok, we all…

    It’s a Friday,” says my mom. She asked me to go to with her to work this Friday to help out with the staff after school. I roll my eyes, annoyed by even the idea of going to that old boring mental institution. I sigh. I don't have a choice when it comes to me and my mother. “It sounds like so much fun,” I say sarcastically. “Sarah, you’ll be fine,” replys my mom. I ignore her and go to school.…

However every trip is different, the characters in the car all have individual personalities and this is way when performing this type of poems the performers really has a lot of techniques they can chose form, to really make it their own poem. Many ideas were able to get across, as we were a small group of 4 (Isabella, Duncan, Luis and I). The ideas and techniques of how and why were going to express the mother, the two kinds and the narrator benefit our performance to make the audience laugh. We wanted this reaction from the audience to make them understand that even though a car ride might be a little frustrating, especially for the parents a car tripcan still be an enjoyable adventure.…
