There's quite a few.. I'd even go as far as to say about 20? Just a rough guess. Another I forgot is Callie. Rocky Horror?? Amazing movie! I haven't seen any of it yet here but we did do the Time Warp at the costume party tonight.

Haha, okay then. Survivors you all are.

Oh, got it. Maybe once you're actually to college it'll slow down a bit? Hopefully. Much less exciting: after this past week, that sounds like it would apply to a lot of situations.

Ugh, that's the part that I'm dreading. I'm trying everything I can to make these two weeks last as long as they can.

Alex (tall girl, short hair), Justin, Peter, Samantha, dunno the rest.

And yeah! I've done my fair share of whole hands in henna. I've had people asking if we could walk to a store to get some more and some offer to pay for it. I just told them I'm getting more by Monday. You were right! Apparently a few years back (maybe one before you came to FS!) someone brought henna in, so I hear..

I wish you could have! Would have been very cool. And of course you're alumni! I didn't know what else to call you folk and Survivors just sounds cruel.

Dorm shopping, fun. I'm still really excited for you for college. What's up with your mind? Too much to take in?

SixFlags tomorrow.. can't wait. But a whole week has gone past already :(

Ah, cool. Nikolas came back! He seems a bit jumpy but otherwise he's a cool guy. I am enjoying myself.. it's nice here. I've even run out of henna already. Some alumni came back (Mica was one) to visit and stayed for a while yesterday.

I'm using a computer in my digital photography class right now and class is over so I'll leave a message later! What have you been up to?

Hey, I'm here! I've asked a few people about you and they answer "yeah! he's cool" right away. I've seen a few people that I recognized from Ning but I've found my niche for now amoung other first-years. There is a large group here from Greece!

I've been sucked into the Twitter world - do you have one? I'm still trying to understand it and so far, not good. I do like it here. :) I'm not in Cruddup, sadly enough. They're grouped a bunch of girls in Virginia Hall, but I may go over to venture into Cruddup tomorrow anyway.

Is there anything extra you suggest I do before leaving? We had something called "9th Street" at the other camp I went to, and I never went. It was just a street of shops but I wish I had gone since I feel like I really missed out on that now.

Haha it sounds entertaining. Tomorrow, yes!! I'm just now packing my clothes and last minute things since I can tell myself to pack all night but I never do til the last night because of laundry, etc. You can surely still be excited for it to start even though you won't be there, though.

Hmm, good. That way it feels more personal?

Well, there are points when talking fast turns into the credits in a TV commercial for a medicine or something of the like.

Okay, I thought they looked about that young. My sister'll be going into 7th grade this year and she's got about the amount of energy as about the whole table (not including you since it seems to me that you can go 24/7 if need be).

I read the bit in the description where it said it was from a song, so I was wondering how it was improv, but I get it now. That was beautiful for improv. I don't know how you lot do it.

I speak from experience! Haha. I switch accents on different words (Boston, English, Canada, you name it, whereas I've got somewhat of a Pennsylvania/NC accent) without realizing sometimes, tones too. But to the question on when you'll hear it: if someone's got a video camera at FS!, I'll make sure to add in the odd word or two since I'm sure it'll get either on here or to Facebook.

Makes sense for the fast talking. Which in turn makes it sound good since it's pretty natural as is. Sometimes you'll have people trying for the voice and it ends up trainwrecking since it comes out sounding plastered or expressionless.

For Whammy, when you were sitting at your laptop and there was a table full of kids (I couldn't tell how old they were, actually) and they all had buzzers like on the show. They would answer before you even told them the three answer choices, or finished the sentence, sometimes.

That whole performance was spur of the moment? Or you mean you had to do it instead of N? I loved the girl's singing, too.

I'm willing to bet it started as an accident, you noticed it, liked it, and continued, haha.

Good! I'm sure it was worth it (the jetlag, that is).

I'd like to be more behind the scenes, so I tend to enjoy visual arts where I can still express and be heard but not seen (makes sense to me.. ah well). You look to have a good career in what you do.

It was entertaining! It was nice to put a face to a voice, too. I think the younger crowd was a bit more rowdy than the Jeopardy. Maybe your words could've been a tad slower, but then, some game show hosts do talk a bit on the fast side.

I did see it! It was amazing. I don't know what about it struck out to me, but when I listened to everything separate in itself and then together, they blended very well.

Very professional Jeopardy! host! You've got everything down right. I regret not knowing you before this/getting to meet you at camp. :(
At 6:59pm on July 10, 2009, LJ McCreary said…
Haha, accidently or on purpose?

Acid trip, due to the jetlag or because of FS! in itself? If the latter, bring it on!

Stage makeup would be such an amazing thing to do. I've never even thought about it but I like doing tattoo stuff so maybe I wouldn't be half bad at it. I dunno if I'd venture into the drama/acting world, though, backstage or not.

I'll give your channel a look! Can't wait to see some of your work, do you have a lot up? (Of course, right after I send this message I'll be going there to have a peek, so I think the question's sort of useless.)

I have to admit.. I had to look up the name but once I saw a picture I immediately said to myself, "duh". Haha, did you make up any of your lost sleep while waiting?

They look to be in pretty good shape, minus the occasional scare with the cats, far too much millet spray, and myy loud punk music, so I won't worry too much after all.

Haha, I don't blame you about not wanting to retake the test. Once it's done, ciao! Stage makeup is a class? Or you mean from any of the drama classes? They can take away Johnny Depp's wrinkles, though, so I guess makeup can do a lot.

Our messages are getting shorter, so tell me another interesting thing about you.
