I didn't want to go to summer camp. I imagined
an awful place with lots of rules, so Beaufort
Camp was a big surprise. We didn't have to
get up early and there was plenty of time for
breakfast before we started activities at 10
o'clock. There were lots to choose from and
they were fun. My favourites were canoeing,
volleyball and horse riding. At night, we sat
round a fire and we could even sleep outside if
we wanted to! The weather was boiling but there
was a big swimming pool to cool us down. For
me, camp was an incredible experience. I made
lots of friends. You should try it!

Chewing gum is usually associated with some thoughtless automatic process. Television has recently become like a chewing gum too.  For many years it has been considered the main source of information.  But in recent years it has turned out in some endless entertainment full of silly commercials and stupid soap operas.  Very often people can’t tell one film from another, or one TV show from another because they are so much alike.  For some people watching TV turned into the constant switching of the channels.  They fail to find what they like so they prefer to watch a little bit of everything which leads to total absence of any integral or useful information.  It is very hard to get a full picture of a film when every five minutes it is interrupted by commercials.  Permanent blinking of bright colours and a rapid change of images make people lose the sense of  what is shown.  In the end they just passively watch the programmes as if they were chewing a gum.  And when a programme becomes too boring, they just switch to another channel.  And the next day people just take a new fresh chewing gum and chew it till it becomes tasteless and then they spit it out ruthlessly. Don’t you think watching TV is the same?

Ладно, только я буду рассказывать свою историю, ок?

When I was in my early teens, I liked spending time in summer camps. It was fun and exciting. I made a lot of friends there. Once we, I and my 3 friends, were getting back from the camp canteen after the late supper. It was dark and the illumination was poor. We were chatting and playing fool, when I saw a glimming round object in the booshes to the left side of the alley. There was something unusual about it. Suddenly I understood that the object lookes like a big eye and it was blinking. There have to be two eyes, - I thought and got scared. Can you see that too, guy? - I asked. What's that? - they replied and looked  the way I was ponting my trembling finger. They saw it too, and we went running in fear from that place.
