I can relate to one scene


It's the scene, where Jack and Matthew are shown doing a gag on Brad who is sleeping. They put his hand in a cup of hot water, to make he take a leak.

When I went on a school trip for the drama class, some people tried to do that to me. But they failed. I woke up, as they were either moving my hand, are has my hand touched the water. I don't think I was to happy about that. It was so long ago, I don't remember what kind of mood I was in.

So a scene I can relate to. As for the feeling of returning to camp, I know that feeling every time I see the lake, we have property by. It nice to see it.

It never happened to me, but I doubt anyone would admit it happened to them. We went on a weekend retreat when I was in 5th grade, and we had separate dorms for boys and girls. The camp counselors told ghost stories and we had a good time. At night, some boys and girls would venture outside after curfew. If you got busted, then you had to haul wood the next day...early. I don't think it was anything too serious, but I guess the supervisors had to keep some kind of law around there. We went hiking and played games. It was a lot of fun, but I don't remember a lot about it, the details I mean.

This movie captures that sense of retrieving the past and carrying precious memories. It's a sweet, cute, tender, feel good movie. I think it helps people to think back on their owns lives and camp experiences. So, in some ways it is kind of sad to not be able to relive those moments, but the person you become can thank these kinds of memories for who they are today. Friends, experiences, nature.
