Hi! I'm a flying squirrel. I often go on random RealCTY editing sprees. I have a tendency to talk a lot, probably too much.  
 
  
I really, really like music. Except I'm bad at it. I also really, really like raving, but I'm ''incredibly'' bad at it. If you stand near me you ''will'' get whacked with a glow stick. I'm warning you.

Hi!
  
Unlike most CTYers, my nomore year is when I'm 12, right before I go into my freshman year (yay high school). I still get four years though (2 years Baby, 2 years regular).  
+
I'm a flying squirrel. Years ago, I often went on RealCTY editing sprees. I still do sometimes, but nowhere near as often.
  
I vaguely followed the format of [[User:Lukepf04|Luke]]'s userpage here.
+
I can...sort of rave? And teach people? I cannot guarantee that I won't accidentally hit you (or myself) in the face with a glow stick or poi. You have been warned :) If you're interested, hmu I'm one of those crazy people with the spinning lightbulbs (aka poi).
  
I like you, I love you, I CTY you.

This session gave me my first experience with a university cafeteria/dining hall. I discovered soda machines. Giving me access to those was a mistake. This was not a great session but it was good enough to make me want to come back.

I could go on and on about how awesome my instructor and TA were this year, but I won't. They a) made a huge effort to get us engaged and have fun with the course and b) didn't talk down to us like my instructor and TA last year. They were fantastic. End of story.
 
 
For some reason, the admins at this site really liked to go around campus riding a golf cart.

This was easily my best year in terms of doing traditional CTY stuff.
  
I’m writing this on my bed during the last week and I’m thinking about CTY.

I’m thinking about how even though my first year sucked I still came back for another three years.

'''Instructor:''' Eric
  
I’m thinking about how even though this is the first year I’ve ever been accepted by my official hall, I always came back for the sense of community I get here.
+
'''TA:''' Conrad
  
I’m thinking about how this is the only place I can fully show my emotions. I’m thinking about how I go through hell after each session only to come back to CTY again and again knowing exactly what will happen when I leave. This is my nomore year and people say I could come back and suggest ways I could pay for it but I know I’ll never be able to return. I wish I could.
+
'''Hallmates:''' Robin, Jude, Eurnett, Lexa, Clara G, Clara Y, Sara, Jiankai, Raelynn
  
When I leave this time, I won’t be able to come back as a CTYer. Next year, I won’t hear canon, which I just learned this year, at dances, or when we’re lying on the floor in AMR 1 and then having an impromptu dance in the lobby. I won’t see my roommate from last year in Seattle who showed up here on the opposite side of the country this year, and I won’t see Amelia raving at social time and dances, and I’ll miss all of that so much.
+
'''RA:''' Gracie
  
I’ve never really considered CTY a place. It’s always been people. I’ve met so many amazing people during my time at CTY, especially this session, who talked to me or hugged me or were genuinely concerned for me last night and I’ll miss them more than I should seeing as I barely know most of them.

+
'''2010 lanyards:''' 2
Most people talk about CTY being a community where they finally feel like they belong. I didn't find that until my fourth and last year, but nevertheless I came back again and again, talked about it endlessly at school, and still sometimes wear my lanyard in public even though it's commonly perceived as weird.
 
  
I don't know why exactly CTY is so special to me, but I guess it's the people. As I mentioned in my Passionfruit speech, CTY has never really been a place for me. Part of this is because I'm a flying squirrel, so every one of my CTY summers was in a different place, but starting from my third year I started making incredible friends. One of them I still frequently contact today. In fact, the friends I made at the Seattle site were so incredible that they were the sole reason why I came back for a fourth year.
+
'''2012 lanyards:''' 35
  
My fourth and last year was mostly the best because of two things: The community and tradition. The community here was so much more accepting than the ones at the other sites I'd gone to, and while I only made one new friend, everyone at the site was generally very friendly and willing to include me.
+
'''2013 lanyards:''' 1
 
 
All of my 8th grade year, I devoured RealCTY, reading as much of it as I possibly could without getting caught by teachers or my parents. The day I left for CTY, I was really excited to actually experience all the traditions I'd been reading about all year. And I did. I learned Tunak Tunak Tun, I was part of the conga line for Istanbul, and I learned to rave.
 
 
 
When I came back from 18.2, I was often told that no one knew what I was talking about because I kept spouting CTY-related jargon no one understood. This combined with the fact that I can't explain things to save my life didn't help the situation. So while I no longer talk about CTY as much as I used to, it still means a lot to me and it will always be a part of me.

Hi!

I'm a flying squirrel. Years ago, I often went on RealCTY editing sprees. I still do sometimes, but nowhere near as often.

I can...sort of rave? And teach people? I cannot guarantee that I won't accidentally hit you (or myself) in the face with a glow stick or poi. You have been warned :) If you're interested, hmu I'm one of those crazy people with the spinning lightbulbs (aka poi).

I like you, I love you, I CTY you!

The following is so I don't forget the names of hallmates, RAs, instructors etc, but feel free to read.

Sites and Sessions

LOS 15.1

Course: Examining the Evidence

TA: Mark

Hallmates: June, Leah, Alexandra, Mio, Miranda, Chia-Hua, Elise, Thuivi, Natalie, and one more whose name I forget. She was Korean and from Los Angeles.

RA: Emily

Course: The Renaissance

Instructor: Kurt

TA: Zach

Hallmates: Makayla, Carrie, Grace, Jennifer, Anne, Lila, Chloe, Natalie, Sunny, and Stephanie. Stephanie never showed up.

Notable quotes:

  • "In the unlikely event that I am decapitated and Zach is rendered unconscious, bring his unresponsive body there and await further. Adult. Assistance"
  • "The HAWWWWWT POTATOES!"
  • "You dimple!"

I could go on and on about how awesome my instructor and TA were this year. They made a huge effort to get us engaged and have fun with the course and didn't talk down to us. They were fantastic.

SUN 17.2

Course: Principles of Engineering Design

Instructor: David

TA: Melissa

Official Hallmates: Aileen, Chris, Brianda, Georgette, Mariana, May, Selina, Wendy, Stephanie, Nina, Karen, and Alina

  • "Don't throw the Frisbee into the holy pool of water!"
  • "His smile is shaped like a triangle!"
  • "My TA almost fainted from the smell of the dead chicken bits in our classroom"
  • "THE SCALPEL IS NOT A FRISBEE"

  • "BRING ON THE ROASTED POTATOES!"
  • "Where's Sofi?" (repeated many, many times)

My unofficial hall and unofficial RA were the only reason I enjoyed this session and I love them all so much.
