Why I love to Hate Michael

I had a great experience at camp this year and I'd like to summarize the battle between an elephant, or in that case, a cheeky monkey, and an oaf. It's one of the greatest times I've ever had and I'd like to document it in some way. You're confused but bear with me.

Let's see... it started in Batik. Batik is the art of dying and waxing. A counselor named Michael just so happened to work there and we met. At first we were the best of friends but it quickly turned into a who could annoy who the most contest. Literally we would just make "nah nah nah and la la la I'm not listening to you" sounds, so much that people in the room complained

Besides Batik I was checking out P.A.S.S. or printing and silkscreen where I met Katie, Jenna, and Emma (who I liked mostly because she liked Charlieissocoollike). They were having a print exchange. 50 people make 53 prints and then exchange to each have a collection of 50 different prints, it's really fun. There I met a lot of counselors who had signed up for it, including Michael - *cue scary music*. At that time I was stirring up trouble between P.A.S.S. and batik by sending messages from Michael and Emily to Katie and Jenna. I came to the conclusion that Michael "fancied" Katie but was very, very, wrong.

Sometime after the letters, there was henna day. I got Jenna to henna "I love to hate Michael" on my arm and soon the war was between him and I. He quickly retaliated by Batiking a sign saying "I love to hate ___". Between that and his next move he seemed to think I called him a fat oaf (oh, the silly British) and I managed to convince people to be on my side of the war. Also at that time, his "mate" Aaron called me a cheeky monkey after being told what I was up to. Then Michael put up wanted signs with not-so-flattering photos of Jenna and Katie saying last seen with the cheeky monkey.

Finally on the last day of camp I attacked from all sides with t-shirts of his face and a red circle-slash sign on it and 14 posters depicting the same thing, that I made at P.A.S.S. So I won the war... Yeah! Beat that Michael oh wait, I already did.

It was a fun summer - hears to you Michael.
