School Coming Up!

I have the first day of school in a few days, so I want to reflect on my summer before that wretched day comes (school)!

Let's start off with the camps I went to! I went to Camp Grossman, Camp Kingswood, The Next Stop, and Camp Extreme! I would have to say that Camp Extreme and Camp Kingswood were the best camps I went to this summer. Camp Kingswood is an overnight camp; it was my second year there and I went for two weeks. I had a lot fun and made new friends. This place is a Jewish camp, so we keep kosher and have services (not the best thing in the world :-) ). Even though it's a Jewish camp, we still have a lot fun, such as COLOR WAR!! Color War is like field day: we have four teams and we compete in different events, like swimming, basketball, soccer and all sorts of fun activities. I was on the WHITE TEAM!! Of course the White Team won (because of me) but the other teams did well, too.

Now, onto Camp Extreme: this is is a Newton camp (I think it's the best one), and features "extreme" activities. We go on adventures (field trips), like hiking and riding on "Codzilla", a fast boat in Boston Harbor. We also went on other trips, such as to Water Wizz, the 10th best water park in New England, and to Kimball Farm for golf and ice cream. There's nothing more to say about this camp other than “BEST NEWTON CAMP EVER”!!

Camp Grossman was fun, too, except for one thing: the activities were just not right for my age group. What I did at Grossman were not the things I enjoy doing during my summer break. For example, sports: I like doing sports, but some counselors there forced me to attend the ones I don't like. This meant I was wasting my time there. 

Then we have the vacation part of my summer which I am going to skip writing about, just because it is too long and complicated. (unless people want to know; if you do, leave a comment below).

Wish me luck for school!
