Cottage Country Part 2- The Land of the Civilized Apes

Whenever I meet up with my cousins, Sam and I always used to try to sneak away by ourselves so that we can hang out without any of my younger cousins following us. Although this seemed like a great idea at the time, we eventually realized that it was pretty mean. Well, to be honest Michael and Stephanie would always tell on us or whatever so we eventually stopped. Okay, well that lasted until we went to my cousin’s cottage for a weekend. When we got there, Sam and Stephanie introduced me to The Land of the Civilized Apes (which was basically our super top secret official club that we made). Because come on, I didn't chose the thug life, the thug life chose me.

So I made my I.D card and they began to explain what the actual point of this club was. We have meetings every day and talk about whatever we want and basically map out what the day is going to be like. So, if we ever want to make meetings randomly, you need to use the kappa code. Oozma Kappa (very original, right?) is when you have a meeting with everyone in it. Gender Kappa is only one gender, Sibling Kappa is siblings together, Older Kappa is only the older kids and Younger Kappa is only the younger kids. So just to wrap things up, basically:

(Unicorns are just way too fabulous to be left out of this post.)

So at first, you may see this as a harmless game, right? Wrong. In our sticky little fingers, we took advantage of it and kinda went out of control. So as I said, I used to always ignore Stephanie and talk to Sam instead. But the way I see it, is that with this immense power I could actually just talk to Sam without getting in trouble, with THE OLDER KAPPA (Insert angel noises here)! So Sam and I would organize older Kappas all the time. It would get Stephanie so upset that she tried to retaliate by using Kappas against us. She at first tried Younger Kappas so that we were left out, but that backfired when she realized that she would just have to entertain Michael. Plus, she would have to listen to him sing the fartpoo song (will explain in a separate post).

So, she eventually found a loophole. She called Sibling Kappas so that it was just she and Sam. So then I would call Older Kappas and so on. Since Sam wanted to hang out with me too, we would eventually run into the shuffleboard room so that we ‘couldn’t hear’ Stephanie.

WHAAATTTTT?? I CAN'T HEAR YOU!

Then we would hide somewhere and she would tell on us. Although, it wasn’t very effective. If my aunt ever told us to stop, Stephanie would actually tell her that Kappas are too official to go against. She just wanted to make sure that her mom knew about what was going on. So than this would go on for hours until Michael came in and wanted to play house.
