Thunderstorms

Last night was a crazy night! We went to bed at around 10:30, and I saw a little bit of lightning in the distance as we made the walk to our tent. I couldn't fall asleep because it was rather warm out so I began to listen to Japanese lessons instead, I made it through quite a few and finally by 11:30 I think i began to doze off and on, I was suddenly woken up at 12:30 by a raindrop hitting my chest, then another, I opened my eyes and my tent was absolutely white and flashing like a strobe light. The thunder roared! it was intense! I cowered under my blankets and then put earplugs in and slept quite soundly after that. In the morning I woke up with a puddle under my matress, hopefully that will dry over today, before the predicted thundershowers tonight. My night was not nearly as bad as Evan's though, he apparently tied his poncho to one of the pegs inside his tent and then ran it down to one of the bottom corners so that this way he would not get drenched by the water pouring through the top of his tent. I saw him crawl out this morning and his hair was dripping and I think most of his stuff is wet...

Ahh hooray for camp TESOL.
