The Friday Five

(From [community profile] thefridayfive, thanks [personal profile] wolfpurplemoon)

It's Friday, more or less everyone else left uni already and I'm bored & tired so here's a "The Friday Five" about summer.

1. Have you ever been to summer camp?
I have, yes! Scout camps, theatre camps, science camps 🤓 (They weren't "proper" camps though, you went to a science center every morning and went back home for the night),...

2. If so, was it fun or did you hate it?
They were fun! I usually had some friends who were in the same camp, and there was always a nice balance of pre-planned activities and just wandering around with friends, and you ended up learning or doing something new.

3. If not, did you ever wish you had?
-

4. What movie says "Summer Time" to you?
This is a tough one :X I feel like I don't really watch enough movies to give a good answer.

5. Did movies like "Friday the 13th" put you off summer camp?
Nah, all the summer camp movies &c I saw when I was summer camp-aged showed them in a positive light.

Appropriate timing with these questions. Summer solstice & midsummer are next week and I'm going to a summer school in France in just a couple of weeks for a month (and will have a few weeks of actual summer vacation after that, too 😱) – I guess summer schools are the PhD student equivalent to summer camps XD

Science camp sounds awesome! We went to a residential centre for a week for science and maths, oh and I also went to the same centre for my orchestra as well - always during school time though (thumbs up to missing school to spend a week doing fun sciencey or musical things!)

Gosh your trip to France is so soon!
