Day 154- Camp: Awkward Gone! (August 12)

If one knows anything about me, they know I practically live in my basement. It is my habitat. That is why I was majorly peeved and not at all enthusiastic when Dad suggested we move out the pool table from the basement, bring all the Lego down and turn half of my habitat into a 'Lego Room'. I voiced my discontentment clearly. Unfortunately, I was given a 24-hour ultimatum to come up with a different solution of how to keep the boys' room clear of Lego. I spent half of my energy at camp trying to come up with a solution. There was no way I was letting anyone take over my habitat. It is an unspoken rule that the basement is the one place where I can be alone and have no one judge me. This is not what happened. By the time I get home, the only thing the Lego Room lacks is actual Lego. They moved everything and went ahead with the plan without me giving input. They did, however give me veto power over the music. Whoop-dee-doo. That is so not the point. The point is that I need somewhere to release pent-up anger by singing alone at the top of my lungs. I cannot do that when there are other people there talking and rustling through Lego.

My apologies for the foul language of the GIF, but it is literally how upset I am.
Now camp went well. I begged my family not to come, because I didn't want them to see me break down if that were to happen. We had two scenes planned out and fully rehearsed earlier in the week. While setting up the stage, we realized that it wouldn't be enough, so we set up two more. Our opening was called the 'Miss Universe' scene. We were all introduced and had our two hobbies listed; juggling and something else even lamer. This was funny, because no one except me could juggle. The other hobbies were things like 'sitting down', 'napping', 'drinking water'. I was last. My hobbies were 'juggling', at which point, I'd start juggling and everyone would expect me to fail, but I'd keep going and my second hobby would be 'and actually being good at it'. Our second bonus scene was the 'circus scene', where we all went out and showed off our juggling abilities. As soon as someone dropped their bags, they would stalk off stage, which left me standing there for nearly half a minute after everyone else left.
Then we did the monologue scene, and finished off the performance with our Midsummer Night's Dream Monologue.
I'm glad my family didn't come. Seriously. They had no business being there.
