On May 16, 2008 I went to GS camp with my fellow Girl Scouts. Since I had a shooting competition the next day I only stayed for that day instead of the three days and two nights. We walked around... alot. On our way to... somewhere... we met a fuzzy little black caterpillar. I believe he was an emo caterpillar, cause I've never before seen an all black caterpillar before. I named him Melvil. We took a picture of him (I didn't touch him, I don't like touching caterpillars) then left him to be his awesome self.

~I put this in here on accident. Oh well. This picture should be later in the story.... you'll find out why....

On our adventure to the treehouse we discovered an armadillo carcass! Needless to say, I didn't touch it. I don't want leprosy.
~Me looking at the carcass with a creepy face...Then we went on the Lakeview Trail. We saw a view of the lake. On our way we found a fallen tree, so I decided to do the Girl Scout thing and moved it out of the way for future girls who might trip over it.
~Me proving that Chuck Norris has trained me, woot!Then, at the end of the trail I showed the girls the awesome rock(in) loveseat. We sat in it! It sorta needs cushions though....
~Bri and me sitting in the rock loveseat!
We were all very tired and somewhat hungry when we got back. So, we started to make lunch (since we were ordered to). While sitting out the food I felt something crawling up my leg. This is when disaster of the most disastrous kind struck, for little did I realize that emo caterpillars aren't as cool as they seem. Something stung me. "I think something is stinging me... I THINK SOMETHING IS STINGING ME!!!!" said I. As I was crying out in distress, someone took my creepy crawly and put it on the ground. They retrieved some ice for me leg and put "Stingeez" on it. I love that stuff. It was then that I realized who had done this heinous act. Someone I had loved and named even though he was an outcast to society. Yes. Melvil the Emo Caterpillar. I loved him and what did he give me in return? His stingers in my leg.
~Me NOT crying and putting the ice on my leg

Although Melvil betrayed me, I still loved him. Yes, that is right, I said loved. I'm sorry (maybe) to say that Melvil was squished by a mother who loves me. Yes, Bri's mother killed Melvil. But, he stung me, he was a danger to the other girls. It was the right thing to do. Besides, he was emo, it is probably what he wanted. Poor Melvil. I could have shown him the sun. He could have been a rainbow caterpillar at heart. May my dear Melvil rest in peace.
