Dear Operation Purple Camp/Camp Runnumucka,
The camp was originally called Operation Purple Camp, but they lost the funding for it, so now it is called Camp Runnumucka. It is a pain to know that your lodge is being torn down, but I will remember all of the good times I had in that lodge during my six years of camp so far.

1: Walking into that lodge for the very first  time and having the biggest smile on my face.
2: Crying because I was home sick, of course.
3: Dumping glitter and saying "sparkle party" non stop.
4: Goodbye, Julie.
5: Spending the weekend in it when I was a JC, meeting my two greatest friends ever. ♥
6: Reuniting with those two, becoming their family and telling them both I love them. ♥♥

Now, I am emotional, but the tears I had shed at camp had meaning. As I boarded the bus after my fifth year, I gazed out of the window and I caught a glimpse of Edward, one of my two special people. Honestly, I was thinking as I cried: "I gave him my phone number, but I'm not going to see him ever again ... I'm no one special and he's probably a one-week-at-camp-only buddy." Edward, I am sorry I thought that, but I am a very negative person when I'm depressed. You're not a one-week-at-camp-only buddy, you're not a friend, you're not even a best friend. You're a true, amazing, awesome, cute, nice, sweet, darling, loving, caring, irreplaceable treasure. And same to Alyssa, the second special person.

See, long ago during my second year of camp when Camp Runnumucka was called Operation Purple Camp, Alyssa and I were best friends, but the camp didn't accept her until my fifth year, so during the delay we had forgot about each other. Luckily, destiny brought us back together. And this time, to stay together.

I love you, Operation Purple Camp/Camp Runnumucka, it was a great run and I can't wait to make more amazing memories in the new lodge for my final two years.
And I love you, Edward, Alyssa, you two are very special to me and I can't express my feelings enough through words.
