The movie/Walmart excursion - by Savannah Westeinde

So I can't believe that our first week flew by so fast, I feel like I've only been here for two days but the three weeks is already half way over! So today (the half way mark of our time here at keeners) we went to go see a movie in pembroke mall then to Walmart after. As soon as we arrived at the mall we were given 20 minutes to go look around and get candy for the movie, then we met in the food court for dinner where we were given 10$ to buy food. Being Canadian I opted for poutine and I was so surprised when I found out that half of our session had never had poutine before. Sometimes I forget that we are all from different places and have different foods that seem normal to ourselves but to the rest of us is just plain weird (like poutine). It's so cool to think that after this I will know people from all over, but it's also kind of sad that I'm not going to be able to see these people that I have started to build strong bonds with, very often or maybe even never again. After we ate our dinner we watched mission impossible (it was a pretty great movie) then headed to Walmart. At Walmart we all bought lots of yummy treats to eat in our cabins, (mostly pop tarts) and things like toothpaste, shampoo and other things we'd been running low uon. We then hopped back onto the keener bus and spent the 45 min drive talking and listening to the radio, before we arrived at keenerville exhausted and ready for bed. All in all it was a super fun and I'm so happy that I'm lucky enough to get to experience it.
