this has nothing to do with camp. i've never been. duh. but... a few days ago that crazy rachel compton came back to dallas, and she brought something for me. i sent my little video camera with her to austin when she left last week. now i've got this sweet little video with footage of summer, dorothy, serena, dylan, rhymi, and isaac on it. so thank you to rach, of course, for not forgetting, and then thank you to all you neat little kitties dwelling in the far-off city of austin. thank you for being super cute, and saying hi to me even though most of you don't know me! it made my day :)

                  i sure do hope i get to meet you guys soonly.

Off the top of my head...

I thank Noam first and foremost, because though we don't talk as often, he has always been a dear friend and stood by me no matter what. I have found few more loyal than he is.

And I thank Mitchell for trying to reach out to me last year, although somehow we couldn't connect enough to become good friends. (maybe sometime in the future, who knows? I think you are wonderful)

Thanks to Charlie for the hugs at camp. You are such a caring person.

Thanks to everyone who's been kind to me, and stood by me, and everyone who's been my friend. I love you all.
