About a month later I got something in the mail. It said I'd won the contest. I was like, what the? I was completely flabbergasted! I didn't enter a contest. Then it totally hit me, Cameron entered me in that night I'd told her about it! OMG I was going to England! The land of royal bitches and pipes! I totally had to call Cameron.
(On the phone)
"Hello?" (I was so excited but pissed at the same time.)
"Hello." She replied.
"Cameron is that you?"
"Duh"
"OMG why did you put me in that contest! I won! I don't win stuff Cameron and I sure as hell don't drink tea!" At this point I was like," OMG I can't go to London by myself you have to come with me!"
Cameron shook her head. "You won, so you go! Plus you have to tell your mom and she'll say that she has to go with you."
(I totally started whining)
"You have to come! We can go tons of places! You have to ask your parents. Please!"
She gave the shortest sigh I've ever heard in my life. "OK. I'll ask."
"Yes! I'll tell my mom right now and you have to ask your parents."
She laughed. "Ok."
I'll just say this. My mom wasn't thrilled about going to England on such short notice but she had too. I totally shrieked when Cameron called me back and told me that her parents said she could come! I read the letter and realized that we were leaving for London in 1 week. The night before we left Cameron came over.
(The Night before Take off)
We showed each other all our outfits that we packed and giggled as we concocted up fantasies about Tea land. (England) We were so excited that we didn't go to sleep until about 1:00 and we had to get up at 5! But I didn't give a damn.
(At the Airport)
We were at the airport by 7:00. It didn't take long for me to get tired from lugging all my bags around the airport. We got a couple looks from people. That was when I decided I should travel lighter.
I ate a friken meat loaf sandwich and I vowed from that day forth I would never eat airline food again! The whole 10 hours on the plane I was just thinking about the reason I wanted to enter the contest in the first place. (To get attention from that guy at camp) This was still what I wanted to do. But in all honesty I really wanted to see him again. But in all reality no matter what I did, that probably wasn't going to happen.
