Dear Diary,
Camp Sassafras is a blast! Guess what? My friends from school, Harry and Ron, are at camp too. So is Ginny Weasley, my best gal pal, even if she is a year younger than me. Everyone here is from a wizarding school, three others besides Hogwarts. They're Beaxbaton, the French school, Durmstrang and an American school Magnonia, in Salem. There are six students from America, three girls and three boys. One of them told me it was a treat from school and they won it for having the highest grades.
I'm bunking in the same cabin as Parvati, Lavender and Sydney, my dorm mates from school, Ginny, Gabrielle Delacour, Netta Dubonnet, Karis McChath, Emily and Deirdra Smith, and two girls from America, Kelsey and Madison, who's nicknames are (strangely enough) Spalding(A/N Yes, I gave my nickname to my character. So sue me. Actually don't, you'd only get some very beat up books)(Kelsey, because she enjoys sports) and Ribena(Madison because she's obsessed with Ribena). Anyway, Spalding is really funny and sarcastic, and is a very active hyper person. Their other friend, Microsoft QoD, described her as on a permanent sugar high(And that justly describes her). Ribena is just as crazy and wild, only she isn't as hyper.
We've been doing really fun things, even if we've only been here for two days. On the bus ride over, Spalding, Ribena, Microsoft QoD, Derek, Matthew and Sean(the three American boys) taught us all a song. It goes like this:
Yo mama don't wear no socks!
A ding dong
I saw her when she took 'em off!
A ding dong
She threw them at a tree!
A ding dong
And now the dogs refuse to pee!
A ding dong dong dong dong, A ding dong dong dong dong, A ding DONG!
Yo mama don't wear no socks!
A ding dong
I saw her when she took 'em off!
A ding dong
She threw them at the bed!
A ding dong
And now my teddy bear is dead!
A ding dong dong dong dong, A ding dong dong dong dong, A ding DONG!
Yo mama don't wear no socks!
A ding dong
I saw her when she took 'em off!
A ding dong
She threw them at my hair!
A ding dong
And now my head is bare!
A ding dong dong dong dong, A ding dong dong dong dong, A ding DONG!
It went on like that for some time, until somebody started 'Ten thousand bottles of beer on a wall, ten thousand bottles of beer!' We got to about one thousand before we arrived at camp. Our counselors are really nice. We have two in our cabin, Angel and Mel. Angel is our JC (Junior Counselor) and Mel is our SC (Senior Counselor). Angel is so funny! She, Spalding and Ribena were talking about the meaning of life, and they all agreed it was chocolate. I had to inform them that is was, in fact, Skittles. After that comment we all got into a major pillow fight about our favorite candies-I mean, the meaning of life. When Harry and Ron came to chat, they found us all smacking each other with pillows and shouting 'Chocolate' or 'Starburst' or 'Gobstoppers'. When we noticed them, we all kind of shut up and unpacked because we were embarrassed. They had just come to say hi, and left when Microsoft QoD (Caterina, Spalding and Ribena's friend) from the cabin next door came running in, babbling about how the rabbits were hungry, free the stuffed animals, feed the blondes Kit Kat bars(this was directed the Spalding, who apparently, has a huge stash of candy in her trunk), the boys kind of ran away(wusses). Microsoft ran after them, apologizing, then came back, grabbed a Kit Kat from Spalding and left for her cabin. After we finished unpacking, we all went out for dinner in the Mess Hall, which is just this huge long building with loads of tables and chairs. I sat at a table with my bunk mates, Harry, Ron, QoD and Marianna, one of Gabrielle's friends. Spalding had a sandwich and like four servings of Jell-O for desert, putting her on a bigger sugar high, but it was OK. The rest of us had well balanced meals.
Once we'd all finished eating, the camp director, Sheryl, stood up and just told us that this was summer, and that we needed to have fun, but also needed to pay attention to rules. No boys on the girls side of camp and vice versa, no disrespecting other nationalities, no swimming without a buddy and have fun!(The last was the lamest rule of all, everyone always has it). Then we all went to our cabins for cabin time, and we just sat around and talked and got to know each other. Karis told us about life at Durmstrang, and how annoying some of the guys were, with their stupid prejudices. When I mentioned I'd dated Krum, all the girls but Spalding and Ribena gaped. They'd never heard of Krum, so we had to explain who he was, and why quidditch was so popular. Ribena said that they had a wider variety of sports at their school, ranging from quidditch to quodpot to volleyball (hence Spalding's name) to softball and lacrosse. I think that's a better way of doing sports because everyone has an opportunity at something. At 10:30 it was lights out, and we all got to sleep pretty quickly, but at about two in the morning, Spalding woke up screaming 'they're gonna eat me! They're gonna eat me!' It seems as though Ron is not the only one with a chronic fear of spiders. It turns out there was a baby daddy longlegs crawling on her. We tried to console her with 'they're harmless', but then she freaked us out with the fact that daddy longlegs would be the most dangerous spider on earth if the y could open their mouths wide enough to bite. After that Ribena gave her some chocolate and she got back to sleep, like the rest of us.
It turns out that Spalding can scream really loudly, because the next morning we heard the boys-from the other side of camp-talking about a screaming they heard last night that woke them up. All the girls had woken up too. Spalding stood up on her chair and apologized to everyone for waking them up, but they just laughed at her. She got down and grabbed cereal and Jell-O and ate breakfast. The rest of us had normal breakfast. I heard Netta lean over and ask Microsoft if Spalding was always like that, and she responded in the affirmative.
I'll write later, diary, because Sheryl just called us all to come out for today's schedule of activities,
L8er, Mimi(A/N Hermione)
A/N Hope y'all liked, see ya as soon as there are five reviews!
