Dear Diary,
I’ve now been here, in the Lake District for three days, it’s been a lot of fun, but it has also been
really challenging, and I have to say that this day has been by far the most challenging yet.
To start off, I haven’t had much sleep last night, because I spent it in a tent in the middle of
nowhere! I woke up 10 times at least, while sleeping in the tent. It was so hot when we went to
sleep, but then it got colder and colder, and I woke up in the middle of the night freezing and
stayed freezing for the rest of the night.
In the morning I woke up from the sound of some of the others talking, I had so much pain in my
neck and back from sleeping without a pillow, and on top of plants and tree roots, and they still
haven’t gone away ...

had brought my own bread so that I wouldn’t starve.

I think it was a challenge for me to camp, because it’s something I would’ve never done if it wasn’t
part of the trip, but I feel good now that it’s done. Now that I am back in a warm bed, I have
discovered that I enjoyed parts of it. Another bonus was that we got closer in our group, and
really enjoyed each other’s company. With that said, it’s still not something I would consider doing
again, at least not soon.

waterfall, where we were supposed to Gorge walk.

Me and some of the other girls weren’t very fond of the whole walking up a waterfall thing. While
we were doubting whether to go for it or not, the others were getting dressed, and we should have

forgotten 2 wetsuits. 5 minutes later we were climbing up a water fall without a wetsuit, which
turned out to be a very bad idea. I am positive that I will be sick when I wake up tomorrow.
I have never been so cold in my entire life, and if it hadn’t been so cold it could’ve been a lot of

hour, I had a lot of fun.

supposed to pick us up at 16 :0 0 and the time was only 13 :15 , and none of the instructors had
service, so no one could call them. So, we waited for an hour, and then decided to leave our bags
and walk back to the place we lived.

news was to come: because of the wind, the power was off, which meant no hot water or Wi-Fi.
We spent the rest of the evening eating, playing cards and just enjoying being back.
I hope tomorrow brings more good news and more of what has already been a fun and social trip.
See you tomorrow!
