"What Happened Last Night"

Last night was eventful. The Duke TIPsters were all going to spend the night at a gas station. This gas station was an extraordinary one with a buffet and clean water. When we arrived to the gas station, we all got our luggage out. Karley, Carrington, Veronica, Abbey and Wesleigh were all spending the night. We were so excited. The rule was two to a room, and that was how it was going to be. The room pairs were: Karley was by herself, Carrington was with the counselor, Veroinca and Wesleigh, and Abbey and I. The reason Karley was by herself was because she hated being with a roommate, and Carrington didn’t want to be with anyone but an adult. After the buses reached the gas station, we all went to the rooms that the gas station conveniently had in the story above the store. We all settled in, put our luggage down, and searched the place. There was a huge buffet setting, and a pool. We were not allowed to swim, for we could not leave the 2nd floor. We all decided we were hungry, and decided to spend our money on a chocolate cake from room service! We ordered that, and the older kids decided they wanted to have a pizza party. They asked if they could use our adjoining room and I said “No,” but they used it anyway. So, we have a lot of older kids in our room talking about things we didn’t want to talk about. Karley and I went to her room. And, with just my luck, in the span of that two minutes, the cake had arrived and I didn’t get a single bite of it! There was a few little drops of chocolate sauce left and I licked those up as fast as I could when the older kids weren’t looking. We finally got tired of the whole pizza party in our room thing and we tried to push them all out. They didn’t take us seriously at first, but then we pretty much said “GET OUT”!!!!! and they left. They left and then we had our own little “pick on ‘Peanut Butter’ bash” where they sarcastically tormented me! WE all had to go to bed at 11:00 and that is what we did. We all got in our beds and all of us talked. We texted other people, and talked to our roommates. My roommate, Abbey, had a whole lot to say about the class she was in, and so did I. DukeTIP’s weekend studies was the best experience ever and I want to stay again. -Virginia "Peanut Butter"
