“Uhhhh” I sighed”When are we going to get there”??? Mom replied “Only two more hours Jacqui, just try to catch some Z’s” Nooooo! I was totally doomed now. It was my birthday present to go to a cottage for my 11th birthday. Anyways now I was more concerned about the weather. It was like 100 degrees out. I was sweating enough to fill an olympic swimming pool, I was so so wet!! Sometimes I feel like my parents should win some kind of positive attitude award because they haven't broken a sweat yet and haven’t complained once about anything. I needed to distract myself from this immense heat so I started texting my friend Stella who was sitting two feet away from me. Our throats were totally dry so we had to communicate in this way. She responded by telling me how bored and long this car journey had been then our reception crashed.
As we came close to my favorite ice cream shop (Kawartha Dairy’s) I saw there was no line. I was so happy as we turned in, oh and by the way Kawartha dairy’s is the best ice cream store in the world. As Stella and I tried to sprint, we found that we were moving really slowly because we were filled with cramps. When I took the first lick of the blue bubblegum ice cream it tasted like a scoop of awesomeness. When we were walking out I saw a go-karting sign and looked at my parents and they said yes but be careful so I scraped up my money and soon Stella and I were speeding away. We had a race who could do the most laps in our fifteen minute time limit. As I looked at my speed I saw we were going faster than my moms car could go!
When we got back in the car it was steaming hot and my mom finally told us we were only one hour away and we were there in what felt like two hours. Time always went so slow on car journeys. As we came up the driveway I knew from the pictures that the lake was probably really close so I took my chances and just ran for it hoping to escape the heat. When I landed in the water it was nice and cold and it felt good as I came up I looked around I heard a big thump and I knew got out but my parents were nowhere to be seen and I knew my parents were be getting the boat at the marina . I washed off and saw them in the distance....With a wakeboard that I saw from the Overtons catalog and two other strange objects I could not identify. As they came in mom took a photo of the inside of the boat and said�this is how it should look after we use it� and me and Stella looked at each other and grinned.
Now, one thing I need to tell you my parents need to try every sport possible. On the upside I am good at everything like swimming, which now goes to a downside because I am always the one in the swim team that is trusted to win us a good spot and people ask me for lessons. When my parents docked I helped them tie the boat in and asked them what the three objects were. My parents told me it was a wakeboard a wakeskate and a wakesurf. As my parents were talking Stella ran over to me and freaked and managed to say these words “You have got to look at our room it is totally awesome!!!� As I came over I saw our room it was amazing, it was bunk beds, I love bunk beds. They make me remember when I was little and we would make awesome forts and pretend that we were princesses in a beautiful castle in a land far far away.
Boom!!! as I woke up the next morning I was wide awake and I looked out the window and saw my dad cutting wood. Now Stella was awake. We walked out filled with sleep and smelt waffles wafting through the house. My mum walked out her room and said “ok after breakfast lets go wakeboarding� . Stella and I groaned, we were good swimmers but also very tired swimmers after yesterdays swim.. Dad walked in and said the lake was as smooth as butter as we got to the boat and I heard this strange quacking noise. I went to the back of the boat and saw ducklings and their mother. I was so surprised that I stayed up for as long as possible then swam away. Mom took a picture now finally some helpful pictures not pictures of future super fancy colored cars and whatever else.
Surprisingly I agreed with dad when he said the water was as smooth as butter. Now I was putting this wakeboard thingy on. I was doubting this choice to go first as the engine started up I shouted “Hit it dude� and there I went and I popped up so easily that it felt easy, it was really fun as I tried to carve the wake. I went out of the wake and tried to ride the rails. My mom was frantically taking photos and videos. When we were finished I was watching a video I was going to jump as I picked up the speed I closed my eyes and then I felt a slight light thump and I did it! I was so excited.
When Stella tried to get up she fell...... on her face. I laughed so hard then I fell in the water that was it and my mom filmed me falling! Stella left our cottage a tad early because of the small incident to go to New York because her parents were there. When she left we went to the Marina to get ice cream I and I got a tiger tail (Orange sherbert and black licorice) it tasted like total awesomeness. When we got back to the cottage I went to my room to text my friend Evelyn. We were both going to a summer camp in a few days and I was already packing. As I walked outside my parents told me I had to try wakeskating and wakesurfing so I said ok with a depressed voice as I had tried so many and I did not like all of them. As the boat cut through the water like a knife I was getting the equipment ready, I saw our neighbors Sam and Ben, a brother and sister that lived next door and waved, they waved back. As I got in the water with my wakeskate and started preparing myself I once again shouted “Hit it dude”and the engine started up I shook a little but soon I was up and going, “This is easy” I said to myself. When I tried to do a trick I switched sides and I made it without falling! My parents cheered and I let go of the rope and went roughly and did some more tricks.

As I finished my parents figured out that there wasn't a proper rope to go wakesurfing so had to go back to the cottage and go to camp early. As I arrived at the camp I met up with Evelyn and happened to be in a bunk with each other! We decided to go night roaming and I said sure and we waited for the night duty to walk away and we stole a flashlight from one of the juniors who were about to go home now and ran away giggling. As we walked through the woods I heard a strange call of help and screaming as Evelyn and I crept through the woods we thought it was one person trying to scare us. We followed the sound into a tunnel made of mud and stones as soon we were a foot away the door slammed and it became lighter and lighter until we could not bear it. We were now shutting our eyes we both screamed and I said stop now and everything went pitch black. I felt a thump then fell asleep. When I woke up I told a joke because I needed to laugh so I said “Where do hamsters come from... Hamsterdam� . I laughed but no one else laughed with me. Now I looked around to see my surroundings I was in a small room and it was a strange room with a guy lying down who had strange features: He had blue and green hair and that was his real type of hair I could tell. I went through a hair dying class
He had purple skin and he had a strange tunic made of leaves. Evelyn just sat there trembling. Evelyn and I began talking and the guy woke, his face was a horror! it was melted and he had broken glasses with duct tape all over them. As he was stretching he noticed us and we asked him why he was here and what had happened to him. He said that the person here was a very mean scientist and he went to the same camp and the scientist stole everything he could except the houses and experimented on him. “We have to get out now!� As we were talking we got interrupted by an evil cackly voice. We shuddered as I saw him he was the size of an elephant literally. As he opened the door he tasered the purple skinned guy and grinned at us as he tied us up. He dragged us and used a carabiner to hook us to a rope and pulled us over a pot of bubbly water that was rapidly changing colors. We screamed at the top of our lungs. As we were getting lowered into the water the scientist said the water would make us disappear and dissolve in 5 hours. As we came closer we screamed and the strange purple man appeared again and rammed into the scientist. A glass jar spilled and it turned as hot as the sun. The scientist spilled the other jar and smoke came out.
Suddenly the chain shuddered and the guy appeared and pulled us to safety but the chain broke against a rope that the scientist wrapped around. We were free falling but I managed to untie Evelyn and I so we could swim out if it was possible. As we were falling I thought ‘ok nothing to do all is lost we are dead bye bye world’. Then we landed, the water was all over us it felt like fire and water and I went numb! Finally I managed to swim to the top and get a big gasp of air to reassure myself. I grabbed Evelyn and we hoisted ourselves out of the water. We walked out and there was a strange light. As we walked towards it I felt a new power and I lifted myself onto the the roof and I lifted Evenlyn with my pinky finger and I then felt useless so I lifted her up quickly and I made it.

I just fainted because there were the people who I met at camp. I felt people coming and going so I woke up and there were no lasers no nothing there, I shouted and it echoed across the room . I just fainted because there were the people who I met at camp. I felt people coming and going so I woke up and there were no lasers no nothing there, I shouted and it echoed across the room and I felt a slight chill and screamed. As I was screaming I ran out of the room and saw the nurse she was talking with a limp body in a stretcher next to her. It was me that this was a dream and I felt like I needed to sleep. I felt light one minute and then heavy as a car the next. I knew it had happened I had been worrying my whole life everybody had, - welcome to death. When I woke up I saw all these strange lasers that tickled when I moved.
I groaned and someone came in and asked me what year it was and I replied “2013” and she said no its “2080” wow I had been asleep for 67 years I stared at her and asked her what was the latest phone? “the iphone 34 and there was now a box that turned into a laptop and all these AWESOME things came out” she said excitedly. I was excited so I said can I see it and do you have a teleporter or any awesome things like that she replied “yes would I like to see?” I let her know that I did want to see it and that I needed to get back to my camp for my 11th birthday. The nurse responded “But you are already here” and she took me to the window.
