So I went to this lockout.. ~sigh~
There were (what seemed like), about forty 7th graders..that's 12-13 year olds for you all who don't have 7th grade where you live.
Well..it may have only been about twenty or thirty 7th graders...we had about 50 people altogether. Did I mention that I am 17?
So with all of these little people running around..it wasn't much fun.
We went on a haunted hayride first. Uh huh. It involved stopping at different spots in the woods. This is where people would jump out of the bushes or coffins or whatever, and jump at as and growl a lot..and that was about it. Okay, other than the people with the chainsaws. But the chainsaws didn't have a blade on them or whatever, so they were absolutely harmless. The only problem I had with any of it was the guy who started throwing hay at the end of the ride. I am allergic to that stuff, and within about 5 minutes of it being on me, I started stopping up and getting all sniffly. Argh.
Next we went to the "haunted" corn maze...~rolleyes~.. I actually started up a conversation with one of the people who was trying to scare us. ~sigh~
After that, we went back to the church and had a devotion. A very short one though.
It also involved a ceremony that I can speak about, but not describe..since it is very special and secret. ;) "Oogum, Boogum." Alas, I can speak no more..I have said too much already.
We played a couple of games after that...one of them wasn't much fun because some people cheated. And the other wasn't much fun because it was too easy. (We had played it last year at a smaller place, where it was harder to be found..and scarier).
So I left. I left about 4:30 am. We weren't really doing anything..I wasn't really having any fun..and I couldn't see what we would be able to do for the next 3 hours..w/o me killing someone...
