Home Away From Home SOLC #18

I shouldn’t call camp my home away from home. That’s what everyone says. Camp is not, nor will it ever bye, my home away from home. Camp is part of me. When I stride into camp I feel happier than ever. I feel at peace when I look at the forest green trees outside the cabin window. Camp is a place for me to just be me, not to like everyone else. Camp is where you tell the jokes and quotes that at school would make you the weird kid, but at camp it makes you loved. Camp is where you make family and friends. I’ve made lots of family, family that will always be there for me. I’ve made friends that will turn into family soon. I make memories and I’ve made my whole life. I’ve made myself at camp. I would be so different without it. Camp is where you don’t have to worry about looking weird because you know that you do. Camp IS home.
