So lets go W. C!!!!!
so on thursday night, we all met at school, loaded the bus up with gear and us. then drove to joshua tree!!! it took about 3 hours. we got there, set up our tents and then talked and went to bed!! mmm.... nice warm sleeping bag!! it was pretty cold so being crammed in a tent was niiiice! :D
then on friday we woke up, ate breakfast etc... then we got split into 2 groups of 2 team each. the group that i was in went climbing first. we set up the systems that everyone was going to climb off of! being up high to do that scared me!! but it was fun! then we climbed... well everyone except me climbed. we ran out of time so i got out of climbing until later. then we went on a hike. a very treacherous hike! no hike like i have ever been on before! it was all uphill on rocks. we went .18 of a mile and we were all dead! but some of the group kept going all the way to the top. 3 of us chilled in a nice spot and waited for the others to come back. then we went down! it was a blast going down!! so much fun!!! :D then we went back to shortwall and i climbed. it hurt so bad!!! but i git like 3/4ths of the way up the wall. then we went back to camp and ate. then we had a competition where we had to re-write the lyrics to a Christmas song to fit J-tree. and we also had to act out a machine of some sort. my team did a washing machine and our song was the one i wrote out above. we won! which meant we had a 5 minute headstart on the MIGS. then we went on a walk to see crazy jack aka Sean Hogan. then we played a game with mrs Fieldhouse. then came the BEST part of the whole trip!! we did star tripping!! OM!! it was amazing! so funny to watch too! seeing people eat it!! hilarious!! doing it was fun too! such a crazy experience!!! so then we went to bed. LONG day!!
on saturday we got up and packed up everything. the wind made taking down the tents insanely interesting!! team work was required!! after that we did MIGS. my team WON!!! and it was a TON of fun! we really worked together and it was awesome! then we loaded up the bus and left. we stopped to get food... i already ate my lunch do i just got starbucks. we got home about 5:15.
the trip was amazing and i had a blast!!!!!!!
