It is difficult for me to return back to Mt. Juliet right after this camp. Being the only Mt. Juliet person to attend this particular camp, I have no one nearby to share unique experiences with. Therefore when I get back to church on Sunday morning everyone will be talking about the stateside mission trip they just completed. This is all fine and I’m happy for the success of the trip. I just wish there were other people nearby who could share experiences with me.
I did use 2 rolls of black and white film. It’s a novelty. Got them developed last night at the Kroger 1 hour photo. Some of pictures turned out really good. Although the output of the film is kinda depressing…considering the reality of the situation. Reality is that most everyone had fun. The film shows some kinda of drab world with no color. Still, the film provides a unique perspective on things.
As far as film goes, I took the one time use camera – which provided some blurry pictures. Remind me never to use those again. It just isn’t worth it. I’d imagine the 110 camera will do some of the same things. Providing pictures not up to par with the Samsung I have.
So I think I did make a difference. “Building a relationship with God” was the theme to church camp. I felt like I built better relationships with friends there. Made some new friends and strengthened the friendships I already have.
It is depressing to get back home. I miss the comradery at camp. The friendly attitude from people who I’ve only met a few years ago. The acceptance and general friendliness is very fulfilling for me. I look forward to camp every year because of it.
