    twenty years ago what camping is all about, they would immediately tell you about campfires, sleeping bags, and how the stars shine brightly at night. However, today’s outlook on camping has changed completely. It involves a motor home which includes a kitchen and a modern day shower located on a campground just a few feet away from access to the Internet. Sure it is nice not to have to leave anything behind while on your camping trip, but you’re really not camping. Real camping is dirty, simple,

    Every summer since I can remember my family and I have spent part of our summer break camping at our favorite place in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, in California. Clarks Fork is an old road with three campgrounds, one being called Clarks Fork. It’s where I have made endless memories with family and friends. It's where my best friend and I have grown up each summer. The first thing that is noticeable in (we will see when we look at) this picture is the two young girls, smiling big. Those two young

    right?" Chia said as we sat alone in the student parking lot. "I believe so," I said, nodding nervously. I looked at my phone and saw that it was 6:09, that wasn't considered late was it? "Today at lunch I reminded Tanaya, Renna, and Ellie about the camping trip and they actually seemed thrilled to go. Then of course, later, we both told Kiara so she should definitely be here as well.

    If that's so, what happens when they come into a highly structured environment that is very direct and singular? I'm talking about what happens when they go camping, specifically in the bush of Botswana, largely because that's where a gang of merry international students and I recently found ourselves. The first event, before the whole camping ordeal, is the packing. The reconsideration of possessions started the process before I even left the hotel room. While I could probably find sneaky ways to

    The first wedding that I planned was in no way a traditional wedding. Ten eager little girls decorated the printed invitations with sequins, buttons, and markers. The same energetic hands prepared the wedding feast, consisting of bagged lunches, blintz souffle, and of course a layer cake. On the big day I looked around with excitement.
