Girls Camp

So i'm like a billion and 7 and this is the first year I've ever been to girls camp. On last Sunday when Jana was like i'm gonna be a nurse at girls camp... I was like "I want to go" and my mind was like "I do?" Im like where did that come from, I hate outdoors and stuff, even Kenny or Kristina was like u know girls camp is camping? lol right? And then there was the ever daunting fight between rather I should go or not go, because I had so much stuff to do. It seems easy to say oh I can't go because, I have homework, or I need to clean the house, or I have other stuff I need to take care of, all are amiable things to feel as if you don't need to go on a really sweaty vacation but also excuses to escape the hotness and roughing of the week to come. That morning I had decided that I wasn't going. Then my roomate came in the room as I was trying to drift back into sleep and said she would do all my chores and take care of whatever needed to be taken care of but she thinks i need to go. Then I asked Jana if I should still go to girls camp, she also said it would be an experience that I wouldn't regret...man so i had to go. I went! And it was hot, and gross, and I was smelly and tired and couldn't sleep, and I had to walk everywhere enduring the blistering sun, and the wildlife that seem to prey on anything with human flesh...but I HAD A BLAST! t was so awesome, the girls were so amazing. All that trivial stuff didn't even matter...I was so like I can't wait to go home...but i'm not missing one moment! I had so much fun with Jana! I love her. The leaders are super awesome, I feel so blessed to have been able to be in the presence of all those young women with such wonderful testimonies and great talents and huge imagination. I know that I was supposed to go, for more than just one reason, Thanks Heavenly Father for loving us all and giving us experiences that shape who You want us to be. And thank You for the spirt, that helps us and guides us to our destinies!
