Admittedly, I was afraid to stay the maximum length of the camp, which was 40 days. So, I decided to stay only a portion of the camp. I then went on to thrive at the camp; after the first week I barely spoke to my parents; looking back it probably scared them. Then when it came time for me to leave, I did not feel the option was even there—I was either staying for 40 days, or I was going to be dragged out by force. Even though it may not sound like it I became very content and more mature at this camp. I learned basic responsibilities, how to do my laundry when I needed to, how to cook a meal without anybody else, how to do the dishes when needed, and how to live in an environment with other people while keeping everyone
