Camp and Concert

Yesterday I came back from camp which started on Monday. It was really good. We went caving, we made rafts (which ours broke the camp record :D), went through freezing cold tunnels, went bike riding, made part of a bike track, went rock climbing and played word games with our class teacher.
Caving was really good. We had to in one spot put our hands on the other side of this hole and then put our knee over the other side and push across. That was really scary. We also banged quartz together, when you do that it makes a little spark, which is very cool. At the end, we had to do a vertical climb which was a bit scary, but I did it and got out to blog about it.
When we made rafts, it took a long time, but our raft won, due to my amazing paddling skills (lol) and the fact that our raft was more streamlined. It was really fun and I got really muddy, because we had to build our raft on dirt, which turned into mud pretty quickly.
When we did the "river exploration", which was basically going through tunnels, which had been blasted by miners, it was absolutely FREEZING!!! We had to swim out the end of the second one about 20 metres, which felt 1000 times long, because the water was freezing. Once I got out though, I didn't feel so cold, but some people were shivering and turning blue, which was funny.
On the Tuesday, we went bike riding. This was pretty good, except for the training session at the start in camp, where I went over my handlebars and hurt my wrist, but everyone said it was a spectacular stack. Other than that, the ride was good. Some of the places we stopped at were very pretty. One in particular was Scotchman's Creek, which had Naveen's Ravine. It is called Naveen's Ravine, because when he was in year 9, Naveen fell into this two metre deep gap and really hurt himself, some of the boys even screamed. Naveen was also one of the two year 11s who came with us to help. The other was Birinder, or Beer.
On the Wednesday morning, my group started to clear the start of a bike track. I had a rake and removed all the leaf litter and other assorted crap, such as blackberries and grass from the track. At the other end of the area, where we were making the bike track, another group started at the other end, so the track will eventually join. At that end, the person who was clearing did a crap job, as there were blackberries everywhere and you couldn't see the track. On the other hand, my clearing was brilliant, the track was really easy to follow.
When we went rock climbing, I actually got to the top of the wall!!! Ignoring the fact that it was the easiest wall, with all colours, I did really well.
When we played word games with our form teacher, Mr Fairlie, the best parts where when we had to make up a story on the spot out loud, with the title Borat and his ladle on their holiday to Frankston. It was really random, as the ladle ended up in a retirement home and Mr Fairlie and Pamela Anderson also became characters in the story. The other best part was when we had to do one of those the person says a type of word and you write a word of that type and then pass it on and repeat that, until you get a story. One of the stories had the two characters as Renee Zellweger and Renee Zellweger, and another story had a majestic penis. My ending was that almost everyone died and those who didn't became emos and slit their wrists and died.
On Thursday night, I had to leave with a couple of friends, which kinda sucked, but I had a concert, which turned out well. First I had Chorale, which I had seen two of the songs we sang once before and the other one twice, so I think I sang pretty well with no idea of the words.
Second I had Stage Band, which was really good, I screwed up quite a bit in Smooth though. I added in a few seconds, which sounded bad.
Third I had Davis Band, which is a concert band, which was easy.
Last I had Orchestra, which was pretty hard. I need to double-tongue in William Tell as my tongue cant go that fast and learn and practice the bit at the end of Hungarian March.
How could I not end on a Dvorak rant! Here it is!
The only thing that sucks about Orchestra is we aren't playing any DVORAK!!!
DVORAK IS SOO BRILLIANT!! BEETHOVEN IS ALMOST AS BRILLIANT BUT NOT AS BRILLIANT AS DVORAK!!!! DVORAK!!!! YAY!!!!!
