So, I’m totally in love (no sillies, with someone besides myself!) and I went camping. This girl, right here. So… if you don’t know me… I’m the stilletto’s and fake hair type. Fully manicured. My friends and clients got a KICK out of me going camping. But, I did it, because you can do anything for a weekend and because my awesome boyfriend told me I could bring as many bags as I want and he will carry them. I considered that a challenge. So here goes.
I’m going on a Camping Trip and I’m bringing:
A:
- Airmattress
- Aloe
- Allergy medicine
B:
- Burberry Sunglasses
- Bells (just in case of Bears)
- Bug Spray (4 days = 4 cans)
- Bikini’s
- Batteries
- Band aids
-
Boyfriend
C:
- Clothes (as you can see each outfit is individually packed in a ziplock bag, making getting dressed fast and easy)
-
- Calamine lotion
D:
- Dry shampoo
- Daisy (the dog) and a Duck (just kidding he was already in Maine)
F:
- Flannel Sheets
G:
- Gloves
H:
-
Hair: Oh god, this was scary. Apparently, wearing your hair down is a bad idea, it will get dirtier faster. Also, apparently bandana’s are you friend. And braids. I like braids though.

- Headband
- 2 hair ties
- Bandana!!!!
- Hat
- Hydracortisone cream

T:

- Tweezers for ticks
- Tylenol (because of the hangovers)
- Towels
- Toothbrush
- toothpaste
U:
- Underwear
- Umass Hoodies (or college sweatshirt of your choosing)
W:
- Wool socks
- Waterhouse’s flashlight (Waterhouse is a friend of mine whom I stole a flashlight from.)
- Wet naps
- Wine (in the box. It’s going to be a long weekend… ok fine it was tequila… but wine sounds so much classier…)
X:
- Xanex (just in case)
It was a really fun weekend, and I can see why people enjoy camping. I did wind up in the lake with all my clothes on after a possible poison sumac encounter. It was pretty funny. I think I’ll stick to camping once a year.

It’s good to be home and back in a Betsy (Johnson).
