Extermination camp

The only time we left camp was when we needed to replenish our marshmallow stock for s’mores. While at the store, my friend’s Mom called my parents from the pay phone to coordinate a time to drop me off (we had two days left.) After playing games and laughing with us for days, my friend’s Mom was reserved and quiet on the way back to camp. Upon returning to camp, being carefree and 12 years old, we went outside to build the campfire and soon…

they all ran out. While they were out a young girl with blond braids appeared out the window of a black car and it looked to be Larissa, but then she left. Then some of the people ran away from the train because it could explode and they walked to the camp. Lida ran into Juli when she got their.

If making friends was surviving, I sure as hell wasn’t a survivor. When I first signed up for the camp, it was to get my parents off my back. “Do something with hockey, Sophie, you don’t want to fall behind.” The instant my parents didn’t believe in me was the second I thought I was up for the challenge.

At first, I thought a whole week without my iPod shuffle and my flip cellphone would be torturous. However, after a few hours of attending the camp I did not seem to miss technology at all. By the end of the week, I really did not want to go back home to technology. After camp I vowed to spend less time with technology and more time outside. Since it was…

I was about to have a big week ahead of me. I was thirteen years old when I embarked on a journey to go camping with my church friends at a place called the Wilds. I have been to a Christian camp before, but I had never been without my parents. It felt substantially odd that I was going to a Christian camp without my family for one whole week. I was tragically confused with several emotions such as excitement, fear of the unknown, and worry. As the bus left the church parking lot, I watched…
