Hmm... I've always known the Blast Off was there, but I've never really gotten anything from them.

And why the bleep don't they let us drink Coke???? I need my caffeine in the mornings, and I am not a coffee drinker!!!! Dehydration is not a good enough excuse for me!!!!

Thank you!

I usually had cereal because I couldn't eat the eggs everyday.

Someone always takes my darn cocoa puffs every morning. The campers get up way too early and get ready way too fast and beat me to the cocoa puffs. I usually get stuck with cheerios, which I pour sugar on.

did you guys do the great tower of empty orange juices? I swear my team, one morning, drank like a hundred orange juices for the simple pleasure of making them into a pyramid... and then throw them away... and then go to the multi-axis trainer... which sucked cuz everyone was too full of juice to go....

Yup, I've been on a team that did that before. I didn't participate, luckily.

At least that would give those who didn't drink more time to be on the MAT!

im a wicked picky eater. and i found like everything they served absolutely revolting. soi had the same thing every day too. breakfast was dry cheerios and water, lunch and dinner were and apple and some cucumbers, just the part with the skin, and carrots. sometimes crutons. the guys made fun of me. but yeah i dont eat crap like that stuff they served. i think the best bet if you like to eat a lot or whatever is to bring some of your own food and just keep it in your room and eat it later. they threaten about bugs and stuff, but people in my rooms have always had lots of food and we didnt get bugs.

We had cracker contests at every meal. We tried to eat six crackers in a minute. People who couldn't get close (most of use) just tried to see how many they could eat in a min.

Haha no wait one time...at space camp, our team drank something like 54 OJs with the help of our counselor, and built a huge tower. Then this other time we had a contest to see who could actually eat the most eggs. It was quite pathetic considering that we thought they were disgusting. Basically if you ate two things of eggs, you were some great hero.

Wait... how is it hard to eat six crackers in one minute... did I miss something?

It's very hard because the first few absorb all of your saliva.

i wana try, yeah it doesnt sound hard, but i can see how it could be.

Oh it it, trust me. Find some Saltines and give it a go.

spacecampaddict28 · Post by **spacecampaddict28** » Wed Jul 02, 2003 10:44 pm

OKay it is hard. I have tried it. What a cool contest though.

Benji · Post by **Benji** » Wed Jul 02, 2003 10:52 pm

Did you try it with us? Maybe New Years?

spacecampaddict28 · Post by **spacecampaddict28** » Wed Jul 02, 2003 10:54 pm

No I just tried it now. I will do it during Christmas Camp though. I love food eating contests....

Benji · Post by **Benji** » Wed Jul 02, 2003 10:58 pm

I'll see you there.

The food wasn't quite as good as I remembered it being last year, and we missed chicken fingers night because we were running late.

I don't really care about the food. It was edible, right? I don't go to camp to eat. Meals are (yes, this is corny) bonding time for teams. I hope yours was alright (and yes, I know you had Brent).

Did Brent make you guys get him food?

spacecampaddict28 · Post by **spacecampaddict28** » Sun Jul 06, 2003 3:33 pm

He made me get him food once and I wasn't even on his team...lol
