As I wake up I think to myself, I feel different, no I pinch my eyes trying to get back to sleep. An instant thought comes into my head “CALEB! Get up! It’s GHS’ first GALA and you're going to be late for it. I zoom out of bed to avoid hitting my head on the top bunk. I crack a couple eggs and chomp them all up, by then it was 10:00 am. I ask my dad if he face paint me. “I have to be the best clown ever!” I say.
“Yeah sure’” my dad replies. I wish I never asked it. For a whole 30 minutes he is face painting me. He is bragging about how good he is at face painting and how he should become a professional, boy was that a night mare. “No time to lose” I said, as flew on to the couch. “Lets have a race!” my brother says.
“Ok, you’re on, three two one GO !
“Boys please stop!” my mum says as me and my brother sprint off into the distance leaving the rest of the family behind.
As soon as we got there, the first game I set my eyes on is the ‘Dunk Your Teacher’. It’s the game when you can get back at your teacher for all that nagging, whining…
Here is a demonstration...
“CALEB!”
“Yes Teacher?”
“Write me and six page reflection about camp NOW!”
You get what I mean? I instantly press the old rusty button.
“There she goes!” I say as a teacher splashes into the ice cold water. Just looking at the water made me shiver.
The next game I go to is ‘Crockery Smash’, a game when you get to smash plates. Now kids, if you are reading this story at home (which you probably are because I am a famous and amazing guy) doesn’t that sound cool, smashing plates? Back to the story…
One ball left, six plates left, all on one shelf. I take a big breath and throw. As it instantly touched the shelf the power and the awesomeness from my body causes the shelf to plummet to the ground. Mr Barrow is not happy. It takes about 5 minutes to drill it back on. It was the best GALA I have ever gone to and also the only one. Can’t wait for the next one!
