I want to preface this story with a disclaimer to all the young people reading this. WHAT I DID HERE IS NOT WHAT GOOD PEOPLE DO. Do not take this as something to aspire to. This story is very real and at the time I didn’t think I was a shitty person but I realize now that I was.
On to the story – I’ll try to keep it short.
In the summer of 2004 I was 19 (freshman year of college over)and I was asked by my mother to “chaperone” on a church youth group trip. You read that right – this was a church thing. Mom was short a male chaperone and since she was the leader and I knew all the guys in the group she thought it was a good idea. It was a free trip for me so accepted. The worst part of this trip was going to be 20 hour coach bus ride down.
