Last Day Of School

Hey guys! So last Monday, June 22nd was our last day of exams!  We finally finished grade 11, which just shows how quickly time flies!  So to celebrate, we decided to have a girl's night at our friend's cottage. It was fun filled with swimming, dancing, a beach bonfire and lots of food.  We attempted and conquered a few of the activities on our bucket list, which made the night even more fun and memorable.  At times, it was fun, silly, insane, crazy and even scary, but it was definitely a night we will never forget.  So not only was it a night spent with some of our closest friends, but we also decided to share our experiences from that night with you guys too!

We first started the night out with a bonfire on the beach, where we danced, sang and made s'mores!  The best part was that we started the bonfire around 10pm, so we had the entire beach to ourselves.  The weather could not have been more perfect; there was a nice breeze blowing in from the water and there was not a cloud in the sky, which gave us the most beautiful starry night! 

After many s'mores were consumed and good laughs were shared all around, we put out the fire and headed back up to the cottage, where we had a dance party. Some of our favourite jams of the night included:

22- Taylor Swift
We Can't Stop- Miley Cyrus
Get Lucky- Daft Punk ft. Pharrell Williams
Tongue Tied- Grouplove
Take A Walk- Passion Pit
Treasure- Bruno Mars
Still Into You- Paramore
Ready or Not- Bridget Mendler
Right Now- Rihanna
Wannabe- Spice Girls

What do you do after eating s'mores with lots of marshmallows? Eat even more marshmallows!  This could only be done chubby bunny style!  If you don't know, chubby bunny is where you put one marshmallow in your mouth at a time and say "chubby bunny."  This is repeated until there is one person left who has the most marshmallows in their mouth at once.  This challenge was actually hard to do since the marshmallows bought were bigger than regular marshmallows.  We both tied at 6 marshmallows at once time in our mouths, beating the rest of the girls! An incredible feat!  Next time we're shooting for at least 10!

Around 1 in the morning, after more dancing, we were all getting hot and restless...so we decided no better way to cool off than a dip in the lake!  Night swimming has to be one of the most relaxing, refreshing and rejuvenated things to do.  Especially when you need to stay up ALL night! 

 Are we the only ones who get extremely hungry after swimming?  The question only comes up now because after our late night swim, we cooked and consumed a very large quantity of pasta,candy and chips at the prime time of 3am!

Sadly, most of our friends, even Amira could not complete the all nighter challenge.  So the last two survivors, including Zoey decided to take a watermelon and turn it into our all nighter mascot by carving it just like a pumpkin.  They even gave our mascot the name Melanie. How puny?  Not only did they carve the watermelon, they made a tutorial at 5;30 in the morning on how to do so.  

WARNING: viewers may be exposed to the guts of a watermelon, viewers' discretion is advised.

We later woke to the marvelous smell of banana pancakes, bacon and even ice coffee, the perfect way to end the night and start the new day.  All in all, it was the perfect way to end the school year and we can't wait for all the new and exciting adventures to come this summer!  Keep you posted!
