The Woods Monologue

Improved Essays
Imagine you are outside lost in what seems to be a never ending forest, with ungodly creatures and mass amounts of stars, plus a slight breeze of the never forgiving woods. You are trying to sleep in a green army tent with a friend right across the tent, with each of us on separate cots. That slight breeze that you thought wouldn't bother you sends a chilling sensation down your spine. You are trying to go to bed but the breeze is not going to stop. So you try harder but you can’t fall asleep. You check your watch it says 2:00 am and now you are really frustrated. You finally fall asleep and when you wake up the next morning you see that it is 5:30 am and you only got 3 hours of sleep, when the horn is a bugling away.This is what I felt my …show more content…
Before the sunset, and all the mosquitos and bugs came out we decided to spray some repellent on the outside of our tent, which I would find out was a bad idea. At every summer camp, the real first night they have a bonfire and they have some good food. Half way through the bonfire they passed out food only to discover they didn't have enough for everyone so I didn’t get anything and I was starving, I was really hungry! After the bonfire my troop went back to camp to go to bed. As we found out, when we sprayed the tent with repellent we sprayed on the outside, so all the bugs went inside the tent, and when I mean all, I really mean all. There had to be every type of bug big to small flying to not flying, spiders, ticks, stink bugs, cockroaches, pretty much everything in the whole universe. After all the bugs scared the crap out of us when we opened the flap to the tent we sprayed some bug killer in our tents and the only bad thing was when they died they fell all over our stuff and our stuff had some of the spray stuff on it. We had to take all of our stuff out me and my tent partner. All I can say is that was the worse night ever. Plus it was freezing cold that night and insanely windy, just like the first night.Two days later wednesday if family day when your parents could come and see you cause you are at summer camp from sunday to saturday.

    "The directions after the ally were clearly not thought out, completely fake, as if he was supposed to die in the ally. The killer must've intended to give the victim a fake map and strike in the ally. The beginning of the map made perfect sense. This was thought out, for a long time." Grayson explained.…

    Bugs love me. It is an unrequited love. In the forests of North Carolina where I have spent summers since I was seven years old, it was a constant battle not to be consumed by the never ending mass of insects who rated me five-star cuisine. Maybe it was my fair skin, the light hue that drew them like a lantern in the night. Or maybe it was my fresh mint shampoo that made them think I was a part of the nature they so adored.…

    Compared to the other ones I’ve chosen so far, this picture probably seems a bit different. Strange, even. That’s because unlike the others, the focus is not on me, nor any other person in my family. Rather, smack in the center of the picture sits a little dark puffball. That puffball happens to be one of the many Woolly Bear Caterpillars, which I called woollies, that I confronted, and even helped that day.…

    Candy Wraps and Raccoons I never thought I would ever though these four phrase would relate with each other, but they did, and these four phrases are: boy scout, screaming, raccoons and candy wraps. The night began one late, silent night, where I could hear nothing but an owl howling from the distance, and I was just about to end the day with a good night’s sleep. I step up into my elevated tent, moving the cover aside to step onto the wooden floor got in my sleeping bag, and laid the mosquito netting over me. I then fell down onto my cot and started to go to sleep, hearing nothing but quiet crickets and the occasional owl that hooted in the distance near another campsite. “Good night” I whispered silently to my tent mate Jesse, who was sleeping in a cot on the other side of the tent than me.…

    The sweltering humidity of my jail cell precipitated down my spine as I sat in deep thought. Stagnant darkness surrounded me, and the only noise present was my steady breath and pounding heartbeat. I noticed a growl in my stomach and my one good hand trembled. My head swirled as my body seemed to malfunction, and I could not pinpoint what I was feeling. Anxiety and nervousness competed with hope and appreciation to occupy my mind.…

The mosquitoes came in hordes, slapping ten at a time on your arm. We hadn’t put on bug spray since the morning, but we were so close that we decided to keep moving. The bugs kept up their relentless offense until we had to stop, as they were making us go literally insane with itching.…

    It was too goddamn hot in this room, I thought to myself. Too goddamn hot to sleep and too goddamn hot to be productive. I looked at the old alarm clock on my nightstand that I had owned since I was born and sent a curse or two to the ceiling. It was 4 am and once again I found myself aggressively not sleeping. It had been like this all summer.…

    I wake up suffocated by darkness, heart pounding, I gasp for breath that won't come. I don’t know what time it is and for a moment I don’t know where I am. I’m still trapped in whatever hellscape I was in. It takes me a minute to calm my racing heart and to stop hyperventilating. Deep breath in… deep breath out, in and out, in and out, over and over again until I’ve calmed down.…
