So, yeah. It's been snce August. . . sorry about that. All I can say is that I was so busy with my last year of high school and preparing to apply to school and stuff. And then, when I actually got time to do stuff on Christmas break, I couldn't find my notebook where I wrote all my info and rough drafts down. I finally found it tonight (unsurprisingly, it was under my bed) so I was able to update. Merry Christmas everyone :)
Emmett POV
Stupid, stupud, stupid, stupid, stupid. They don't even know how to spell the word 'Canadian.' I do. I accidentally found out when I drank a bottle of 'Molson Canadian' stuff. I never forgot after that. But, anyway, I was so mad that I had to be on a team whose name was spelled wrong. Everyone was trying to tell me that it's spelled that way because it's French, but I'm not French, therefore, it's spelled wrong.
Anyway, my team did pretty badly. Not quite as badly as Eddie's (or Jake's, but his cabin is full of nerds), but pretty badly. I definitely did not lock myself in an outhouse and cry until I found out what we're doing tonight. Wait for it . . . a song spoof-off! That's where we all pick a song, then we make a spoof of it, then whoever has the best song wins! It's gonna be great! I already have an idea.
I told my idea to my cabin, and, of course, they loved it. We practised until it was time to go to the campfire, which was where we were performing the songs.
When we got there, Erika welcomed everyone and said all the boring stuff she usually says. I tuned out because I saw a pinecone. Those things are just so fascinating!
Jasper's cabin was up first, and they sang a spoof of 'Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer.' They started to sing.
"Sammy the crosseyed cowboy
Had a very shiny whip.
And if you ever saw it,
You would even say it shines.
All of the other cowboys
Used to laugh and call him names.
They never let poor Sammy
Join in any cowboy games.
Then one foggy Christmas eve
The Sheriff came to say
Sammy with your whip so bright
Won't you whip my wife tonight?
Then all the cowboys loved him
And they shouted out with glee
Sammy the crosseyed cowboy,
You'll go down in history!"
HAHAHAHA! That has to be the best song I've ever heard! Well, not quite as good as mine, but pretty good.
Next up was Alice's cabin. They are doing a spoof of Jingle Bells. Christmas songs are so out of season right now. I mean, oh my lanta, it's March, people. March! Losers.
They began to sing.
"Dashing through the snow,
On a pair of broken skis,
Over the hills we go,
Bashing into trees, HAHAHA
The snow is turning red,
I think I'm almost dead,
I woke up in the hospital
With stitched in my head!
Oh, Jingle Bells, Batman smells,
Robin laid an egg!
Batmobile lost a wheel
And Joker got away, hey!
Batman's in the kitchen,
Robin's in the hall,
Joker's in the bathroom,
Peeing on the wall!
HEY!"
HAHAHAHAHAHA! That has to be the best song I've ever heard! Well, not quite as good as mine, but pretty good. I know I said that about the other song, but I really mean it this time.
"Emmett, everyone knows that song," said Edward.
"Yeah, well, I didn't! So there!"
Next up was Jake's cabin. The nerd cabin. Great, that means a boring performance. They said that they were doing a spoof of 'We are the Champions.' At least it's not Christmas-y.
They began to sing.
"It was 1867,
Canada wanted to be free,
Sir John A. Macdonald
Was the only one who could see
That they needed a hero,
Someone who could lead.
It was something they believed he could do
And he came through. . .
Cause he was the champion of Confederation,
And he kept on fighting until the end.
He was the champion, he was the champion,
No time for Britain,
Cause he was the champion.
Then he died."
Well, that was lame. I didn't really get it, but I think that's just because I'm not Canadian. But maybe I'm not the only one, cause nobody laughed. Or it just wasn't funny, that's always a possibility.
Next up was Nessie's cabin, singing a parody of 'Joy to the World.' I know I was complaining about Christmas songs, but I freaking love this song. They started to sing.
"Joy to the world,
Our counsellor's dead.
We barbecued her head.
What happened to her body?
We flushed it down the potty.
Around and round it goes,
Around and round it goes,
Around and round, around it goes!"
HAHAHA! That's funny! As long as I'm not the counsellor that they're talking about. They better not freaking be talking about me. They are so gonna get it!
"They weren't talking about you, Em," said Edward. "They were talking about their counsellor."
"Oh," I said, feeling dumb.
Next up was supposed to be cabin, but then the most awful, tragic thing happened! It started to snow! Like really snow. Like snowing so much that I thought I would be buried and lost forever!
So, instead of singing my awesome Justin Bieber parody, we got to go eat our snacks early. Whoopee. Damn weather.
Well, I hope you enjoyed the chapter, and that I still actually have readers for this :P I started this plotline with the prequel to this when I was in grade 9, and now I'm still writing it in grade 12. I know my sense of humour and (hopefully) my writing style and maturity have improved, so I'm just going to hope that I haven't changed too much that the story isn't funny anymore. If I have, just say so, and I'll try to go back to what I used to do . . . no promises though ;)
Review please? It's Christmas :D Can it be my present? :)
