I couldn&#8217;t find anything to wear because when we were packing for Spanish camp, I didn&#8217;t know that we would be having a fancy dinner.  I searched my whole clothes bag for something fancy, but I didn&#8217;t know why because I knew what I packed and I didn&#8217;t have anything fancy.  I knew I had to try, though, so I decided on a short-sleeved, green, blue, purple, and white paint splattered, thin shirt and skinny jeans.  I pulled on some socks and slipped my blue, high-topped converse and headed to the bathroom.  I brushed my hair and my teeth and headed out the door, on my way to the dining hall.  I got there just in time.  The counselors were standing at the front of the room, getting ready to serve the food.  Since this was a fancy meal, the counselors would not be doing a play every meal like they always do.  For this meal, there would be no fun.  Only fancy.  <\/p>\n<p>I actually was pretty excited about the banquet before I got there, but when I realized there would be no play to show what we&#8217;d be eating, no mysteriously running around to announce the winners for the people who speak the most Spanish.  We couldn&#8217;t even eat with a counselor!  And since there weren&#8217;t separate tables with eight seats each, we couldn&#8217;t choose who we sat by, and there was only one table, one really long table that made a U around the room.  So I could only sit with a person on either side of me, and a person in front of me.  Only three people.  Well, at least that I could see. <\/p>\n<p>So as you can see, this banquet did not please me very much.  But I dealt with it the whole time and when it was done, I rushed out the doors to play Four-Square, calling the Queen spot.  Bella, Rosa, Greta, Ellie, Ana, Peri, Grace, and Christian rushed after me to the Four-Square square already set up.  We played until the carnival&#8211; here was the fun!<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3283\" style=\"width: 460px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/4wheels4girls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/eldb_d5_banquet.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3283\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/4wheels4girls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/eldb_d5_banquet.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"eldb_d5_banquet\" width=\"450\" height=\"369\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3283\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4wheels4girls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/eldb_d5_banquet.jpg 450w, https:\/\/4wheels4girls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/eldb_d5_banquet-300x246.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-3283\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">We were given a spanish immersion certificate at the banquet<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>September 2nd, right before the carnival, we went to our cabins to get dressed up for the banquet.
