Girl Thrown into Contaminated Waters

  In October, 2008there was a teen retreat in Yalova, Turkey. This retreat was attended by many teenagers that go to an international school. It was organized to allow the teens to interact with each other out of a school setting. It was also about getting to know God better.
    Most of the teens that went last year enjoyed it, but there were some that said it was a waste of money. This remark is quite untrue. Other teens thought it to be filled with fun and fellowship.  There were some unpleasent experiences for some people,however.

    There was a pool of water at the place they were staying. It was filled with green, filthy water. Some of the boys wanted to have a little fun. Suzanna P. was looking at this peculiar  bacteria-infested water as well. Not expecting it, Suzanna was pushed into the slimy pool. "I smell really gross,"she said afterwards. Though probably not a highlight of her trip, it still made her laugh afterwards. Even the worst experiences can be our best stories to tell.
