Although, sadly, it basically had no traditions not even canon songs, so I really didn't understand CTY until my one more year when I first came to Lancaster.

It's hard accepting that I'm not going to come back next year. | The two years before that I did French immersion at CTY, which was quite fun.

Hi guys!
So, here are the courses that I took.
LAN.10.1 - Astronomy, Schnader North 1st floor, Jenn
LAN.11.1 - Fundamentals of Computer Science, North Ben 2nd floor, Erin
The two years before that I did French immersion at CTY, which was quite fun. Although, sadly, it basically had no traditions not even canon songs, so I really didn't understand CTY until my one more year when I first came to Lancaster. My eyes were opened unto the infinite realm of cty-awesomeness, but I was still really shy because I had no idea what was going on half the time. This past year, my no more year, I was able to fully indulge in all the awesome things that go on, and so I did. I can confidently say that it was my favorite year at CTY. I'm sad that CTY is over for me, and I feel like a two-hit wonder in a way. It's hard accepting that I'm not going to come back next year.
Having just finished my no more year, I keep thinking about whether I have any regrets or not. I don't want to have any regrets, but I feel like I sort of do. I wish that I had come to Lancaster sooner, I wish that I had jumped right in my one more year, and I wish I had taken more pictures. Alas, there's no real way to have prevented any of those, but it still makes me sad. I wasn't very upset at the end of my first two years at French camp because I didn't feel like I made more than a few close friends. By the end of my one more year, however, I was so sad to leave because even though I didn't make tons of friends (though the ones I did were awesome), the sense of community was amazing. No matter where I went, I felt like Mother Lancaster was always following me.
Then, at the beginning of my no more year, I felt like a different, more mature person just because of the way my sophomore year played out what with constantly doing homework and being sleep-deprived etc. My roommate Jen was super awesome and far more outgoing than I, which is probably the only reason why I didn't have a repeat of my one more year. She would happily prance into the center of a group of people and introduce herself. A combination of being with her, and the fact that I happened to stumble upon some friends myself, I actually felt at home sitting in the alcove talking about nerdy things and Metroid Highschool. Long story short, I loved every second of CTY and take none of it for granted. For one of the first times in my life, I felt like I could be myself effortlessly without trying to make my friends understand my sense of humor or the punchline of a joke. I had so many things in common with everybody that I just felt at home. I felt comfortable just seeing where the day took me without worrying about whether I would have fun or not.
But alas, all good things must come to an end, and in the words of the awesome RA Bill, "CTY is only special because it ends." :)
