The terrifying high beam

LI: To recount a 5 minute snapshot of one experience you had at camp

First I climbed up the ladder in fear then my legs started to tremble. After I passed the ladder I climbed on to the staples, one leg then the other, I finally stepped on to the beam as I was shaking to the bone. As I took my first step I felt goosebumps go up my spine, in spite of this I speeded straight forward to the next pole.

Third as I hugged The pole  with all of my might I knew it was almost over all I needed to do was walk to the middle I walked to the middle of the beam, I took one foot off, then the other, after it almost seemed I was floating. I was so proud as I dropped off the beam.

As I was floating down from the beam I looked back at my group with success in my eyes. As my feet hit the ground I had a sense of relief that I had accomplished what I had done.

After I completed the activity I felt so happy with myself for having the courage to walk across the beam. I walked away from the activity proud of myself in my accomplishment.

Last week we went to camp at Kokako Lodge. My 5 minute snapshot shows my personal voice and I have tried hard to paint a picture with my words to describe what I was doing and how I felt.
