Pamela Orr · Answer 1

The very first time I left my home for more than one night was in 2002. I was five years old and I was eager to spend a weekend camping in my summer camp.

It's my first time writing in this journal, I don't know how to do these things. I'm happy, nervous and worried at the same time. I love my friends, I love playing sports, I love swimming, I love nature, but I'm afraid of missing my parents. I'm leaving tomorrow morning to spend a whole weekend camping with my friends. We are going to do a campfire, eat sausages, play games, go on adventures. It's going to be so much fun! Despite all the fun, I am going to miss waking up next to my mum's bed and having breakfast together. I am going to miss the walks to the woods after lunch with my dad. I'm going to miss my dog Bongo, who is going to take care of him better than I do? I know I'm exaggerating a bit and it's only three days, but I've never been outside my home for so long. I'm going to miss my house, my bed, and my toys, but I'm going to be back! This is it for today, I will keep you update with my summer adventures.
