I was assigned to Tent D with Mr.Pendanski as my counselor. He seems friendly; he told me he wanted to help me turn my life around. He introduced me to the other campers, they all have nicknames, but Mr.Pendanski doesn’t use them. He introduced me to Rex and Alan, a.k.a X-Ray and Squid. I also meet Jose, Theodore, and Ricky. He calls themselves, Magnet, Armpit, and Zig-Zag. Then there is this other boy who Mr. Pendanski calls Zero, like it’s his actual name. He claims he doesn’t have anything inside his head. I think Zero might be a cool guy if you get to know him.
The next day, I had to dig my first hole. It wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be. For starters the ground was hard, and I got several painful blisters from the shovel. It had to be a wide as your shovel and deep as your shovel. I was going to get the shortest shovel, but that was claimed and will always be claimed by X-Ray. The part I hated the most was the sun, we got up so early to beat the hottest part of the day, but I wasn't finished until way past than. I was the last one to finish, I'm shocked since this is my first hole.
After everyone finishes their hole they go to the Wreck Room, which sort of like a hang out place. I decided to write to my mom, so she wouldn't worry about me. When I tried to explain that to Squid he scowled at me. I waited until after he left to start the letter.
