I am going to write a descriptive essay on "My first Camping Trip"
It is only 5 paragraphs.
paragraph #1 - is my intro
paragraph #2- is my fist body paragraph
paragraph #3- is my second body paragraph
paragraph #4- is my third body paragraph
paragraph #5- is my conclusion
What should my body paragrphs be about? three different incidents? or my senses? or what?

For your introduction, decide on a focus--if you want to describe three different incidents then you need a way to pull them together--an overall impression. Was the camping trip enjoyable? frightening? Whatever your impression is will become your thesis. After that, each paragraph should be described using sensory impressions? What did you see? hear? touch? taste? and smell? Be sure to use vivid words--giggled instead of laughed, hiked instead of walked, grabbed instead of took, etc. Also, use specific adjectives, including colors, and adverbs (We hiked noisily through the dense thicket of vines, weeds, and poison ivy.) For your conclusion, summarize your experience and end with a strong statement; for example, will you go camping again based on the first trip? If so, write something like: My duffle bag is already packed for my next trip. If not, write something like: No amount of money would convince me to go back into the woods.

Your 2nd paragraph should tie into your first, then the third ties into your 2nd and so on. Since it is a descriptive essay put in as many details about the camping trip, the surroundings, the colors, the smells, etc...

Try your closet. You can describe the way that you organize your clothes. Maybe you've got a particular way of arranging the way you reach for them. Do you put your shirts in a particular spot? Do you arrange by colors? What's on the top shelf of your closet? What's on the floor of your closet? If you want to get really deep, you can talk about how the closet is symbolic for the things in your life that you keep hidden away from the world and that your intellectual wardrobe is what you choose to put on when you're in certain groups.

I like your idea of doing the three incidents that happened while you were camping. or you could do something like, how you felt before camping, the actual camping experience and things you saw, did, and stories, followed by how you felt after your camping trip. or something like that....?
