camping woes--part 2

Today, we had a briefing from our camp guide. He told us all these stuff about the safety, activities and "punishments" during the camp.
He said he want to make this camp an enjoyable and exciting one. But in my opinion, this camp(and all the other camps) are going to be a torturous one.
He said that a group which consist of 20 people only have 15 minutes to bath. What kind of life is this? I usually take more than 30 minutes to bath. He said if we take more than the time given, we may have no meals and may go to sleep at midnight. How dare he threaten us with no food and delay our sleeping time! We are born free, they have no rights to control us. Besides who are they to control us?
Furthermore, we cannot bring any electronic appliances like mp3 and handphones. The life there will be primitive, we are to bath with cold water and away from any means to communicate with the world. For me, even on hot days, I still bath with warm water.
I hope that something nasty happens during the camp. Those activities which we must participate are "dangerous", they include rafting and rock climbing. Hope it rains heavily with thunder and lighting throughout the camp. The teacher-in-charge had already told us that if it is just drizzling, we will still continue the activities. By raining heavily is the only way I could escape.
Here are some ways you could make them pay for organising this camp. For example, you could fall ill, down with flu or food poisoning(the ones who organise this camp will be blamed), heatstroke, or injuries from the activities played. It is going to sweet revenge.
All these may seem childish, but I really resent the idea of camping.
I am finding all ways to get out of it.
