The worst night sleep !!!
Whose idea was it to sleep on the marae? Three hours of sleep, that's who much sleep I got during that night. 11:00 pm the lights finally went out .We were all shattered after the day before. 12:00 am the snoring started. I was looking up at the ceiling, the beautiful maori patterns going across the roof, the tikis staring at me creepily, their eyes filled with questions . The mattresses we slept on were smelly hot and uncomfortable. The pillows were shiny and sticky. At about 1:00 am I got maybe about 2 hours of sleep finally!
But then I woke up at 3:00 am tired and grumpy and found 10 people snoring loudly. It sounded like a stampede of elephants. My mum, dad sister and everybody else were sound asleep but me i was stuck with the elephants. To make things worse i was now cold and then i realized why i found out my mum had took my sleeping bag and what really annoyed me was that my mum had a rant about how she was only wearing shorts and t-shirt so she would be to could in my sleeping bag but i was way to tired for arguing. Again I drifted off to sleep, finally sleep! But then I hear my sister yelling in my ear and jumping on me like she was a monkey. The sound of people rustling in their bags to find their clothes like someone in a movie theatre eating popcorn loudly. I yawn and loudly get up looking like a hunchback. I had a bowl of muesli and all seemed right again also if you're planning to sleep on a marea bring ear plugs and that is not a joke.
