Wow! This site got really huge over the summer and suddenly i can't keep up with it..... (that's what happens when you leave the cyber world for two months).
Summer is still yet to show it's smily happy face in this part of the world..and I can't wait!!!!
Keely,
I miss summer :-(. I miss my former boyfriend, who's pretending nothing happened between us. I miss being really happy, and knowing I had all the time in the world....
Geeeeeesh, what are you on about (except nikki, gee, I wonder where you are...hmmm, I wanna go to Bali!!!!) I havn't had a single bit of sommer the last few months, not since Febuary...Don't worry!! I'm not a wacko, its just seasons are the other way 'round here in Australia, my sommer is just starting now!!!!! And that means beach everyday, hot surfies, end of year sales and loads of other shit :-) So while you people freeze in America, we'll be nice and warm over here.
It was 2 degrees celcius here this morning where i am in the land of ice and snow (Canada)...... Please don;t rub it in!!!
The worst part of winter is the shorter days, I love having the sun set at about 9 pm. Daylight savings starts here in a few weeks :-(
I guess what possesed me to start this conversation was being way too damn laxy to read everything that has happened in the last two months I was hpoing that there are a few other people out there in my position. They went away for the summer and suddenly they come back to this huge site and have no clue what's happeneing here! That and i want to know what people did over the summer. (I know i forgot everything i ever learned in chemistry and math which isn;t helping too much at school right now!)
I worked at a camp this summer. I didn't really know anything about the camp and had never met anyone who worked there. I had a phone interview so i didn't even know the camp directors. I was scared shitless driving up there at the end of June. What if i hated all the staff, or worse they all hated me?
From the moment i stepped out of the car i figured out it was pretty much the exact opposite. I never would have imagined i could work with 30 people who were so amazing and who i actaully fit in with. Me! Who has never fit in anywhere. I guess i found my little corner of the world where i feel the most at home and most able to be myself.
I gained a ton of confidence and self esteem thanks to the great friends and support i found there. I got my nose pierced, much to my parents horror, i went home for only two days the whole summer, i learned more about sex than i ever wanted to know, i learned drinking games, I skinny dipped, i wathced a sunset and a sunrise, i had sex in a field under the stars, and oh yeah - i met Eric.
I am not going to drool on about him because i feel this message might go frome over confident to sappy, but he's a really cool guy who i feel priveldged to have been able to share his company with and have, at least somewhat, feel the same way about me.
So now i am back at school with a terribly short haircut that took all my firends by surprise, and a pierced nose, and my best friends live at least two hours away if not 18 hours away...... God i miss the summer!
