A Reward to Myself


Summer vacation is just right around the corner, and I am so ready for a vacation no matter how short it's going to be.

There are a few things planned in my immediate future, and I am just giddy from excitement. I live for vacations, and any vacation I get to take is MAGICAL. Some people may think I enjoy vacation a little too much, but I say they are all crazy.

To prepare for my immediate future I have just bought a mummy sleeping bag. You are all wondering why on earth is she so excited about a sleeping bag? Is it magical? Does it tell jokes? Well, it doesn't do any of that, but it's beautiful, and it's suppose to keep me really warm up to 15 degrees at night.

My last school camping trip was a disaster. I almost froze to death in the middle of the night. I could not sleep because it was so bitter cold. I had the flimsy $20 bags you find at Target, and boy did I regret not thinking it through. It was extremely painful, but I live to talk about it. I will now warn every person I know and will ever meet about the dangers of a flimsy sleeping bag. Yes, I was that traumatized.

But my story shall have a happy ending. I now have a nice sleeping bag that should keep me warm (maybe a little too warm) in my future camping trips. Plus, it was half off, and I could not resist a bargain. It is a win-win situation.

I also wanted a headlamp, but someone laughed at me. She may of also judged me with her eyes. I'm going to get one someday, and I am totally going to rock it. Just watch out.

Actually, I want the whole line of camping gears. Maybe I will get a backpacking backpack (did that make any sense?) next. I've been wanting once since I saw my friend with one. I love camping, and I can see myself doing it all the time. :)
