Severus Snake Vs. Neville Frogbottom

Hey guys! I'm finally back from camp, and I had a blast!
I met some really awesome new people, and I have some really fun experiences.

There was this one instance when my camp group was on our canoeing trip. We had had a storm earlier that morning, and the wind and a little bit of rain was all that was left behind.

We thought it was fog at first, and then we were like "HOLY CRAP! That's rain!" So we had to pack up everything as fast as we could.

Believe it or not, it got darker than this. And keep in mind that this was in the morning. It was like night all over again when it hit.

In case none of you know, I'm pretty much terrified of canoeing because of a very horrible first experience.

Anyway, we had to canoe against the wind that morning, and I had to steer, which I'm not very good at.

So, my partner, Nour, and I are trying to keep up with the group, while going against the wind. There were pretty large waves, and the wind was very rough.

We go to turn around a corner of a small island, when we get stuck on rocks. The canoe before us had the same problem, so we didn't really think it would be hard to get out, because they got out fairly quickly.

Nour gets out of the boat, and tries to pull us over these rocks, and every time he got us out of that little area, the wind and the waves would just put us back in. So after about 6-7 minutes of him trying to get us out, I thought I'd give it a go.

I tries for at least 8 minutes, and then gave up.

I started crying tears of frustration, exhaustion, and fear, because we could no longer see our group.

And let me tell you, it wasn't those cutesy little princess tears.

I was sobbing uncontrollably. I was wet, cold, and scared, and I couldn't really think of anything else to do besides cry.

So my partner, Nour, was all like "Don't cry, XCenedra! We can make it out of this! EVERY THING'S GOING TO BE OKAY! OKAY!?!?"

So we just sat there, with me crying until a canoe filled with our counsellors came back and helped us out.

Funny, and not so funny enough, the whole rest of the day went pretty much like that.

After that eventful canoe trip, we made it to our final camp site before we headed back to camp. When our vessel hit land, Nour and I were basically rolling on the ground with joy....And yet we were only in the canoe for about three hours.

 I knew I would never make it as a sailor..

Anyway, once we set up both of our camp sites, we were eating lunch, when all of a sudden my friend Naomi was all like, "GUYS! Look! There's a snake eating a frog!" So everyone ran over by our tent, and watched a snake eat a frog for almost 45 minutes.

The snake's name is Severus Snake, and the frog's name is Neville Frogbottom.

We discussed this whilst Neville was being eaten.

It was rather amusing, because pretty much all of the boys were amazed that all the girls were fascinated by a snake eating a frog.

But then again, it did take the boys at least 45 minutes to find fire wood, and yet only come back with four sticks. I think on this trip, the girls were better than the boys on performance, and all around activity.

Good fight, boys.
