Forevermore, cat lover, BLT stripper, Quotebook carrier, obnoxious, always seems to get hurt, likes making pillows out of humans, professional armpit tickler (if it's raised, WATCH OUT), Rickroller, loser of the Game (I LOSE), nerd, procrastinator, Infernite, talkative, loud, soprano 2, Lancastrian, on Facebook (so friend her), shorthaired girl, vertically challenged, from New Jersey and agrees with the Pie callback, reunion attender, is never off AIM (IM: AnnodamZ), thinks it is slightly weird that this list is in third person, and loves you.
I made an on-the-fly Passionfruit speech. It'll be posted here when I get the video of it and can transcribe.
The Quotebook lives! I passed a Quotebook to Vira Shao for 10.1, and to Marnie Pimentel for second session. Hopefully they'll get even more quotes than me. Transcription of '09 IS UP! '08 is further down the page.
Write nice stuff here! Or not so nice stuff, but if it's not nice I'll probably delete it. I love CTY, I love the Passionfruit, and I love you. -Zoe

The CTY Chronicles (09.1)
So. This is my journal from 09.1. Some tenses are weird because I wrote at irregular times during the day. Don't edit it, please.

Sunday, June 28
Sitting in the car waiting to leave for LAN. I packed way way way too much crap, but I’m a nomore and I don’t care. Hope I get an occasion to wear those vinyl pants, or to make someone else wear them. I will have a whole hamper full of stuff to lend out come Second Saturday.
Doh! I only brought $20 of my own and parents gave me $40. Hope AYP’s having a sale!
Driving into Lancaster with the Decemberists’ “Sons and Daughters” playing off speakers.
Now I’m in Lancaster at a little restaurant called Effie Ophelia for brunch. I was feeling a bit sick earlier but maybe that was from trying to read in the car. Dear deity of your choice, I hope there’s no Schnade this year, or swine flu. If someone brings that to CTY, everyone will get it. No piggy flu plz. HOLY CRAP! I’m sitting across from that sex shop that we always pointed at on the way to market!
Well, I stood in some very long lines (and ran into Sasha on one of them), checked in, and found out that I had the same RA as last year (Clare) and am in Thomas again. Third floor this time, not fourth. I have a single room with a window on the Quad, which my mom organized and made me unpack according to her plan of how my room should look. I told her I can do it myself, but she insisted. Then we went to the bookstore to get my books (which came to over $100, Mom was not happy about that) and went to Hall Meeting where I met the girls on my hall.
They are:
RACHEL: Yes, it’s that Rachel. Adorable Rachel Larrowe of the Alcove and Tumblr and I’m so happy she’s on my hall because she’s awesome.
ALYSSA: Rachel’s roommate. She lives down the Shore and seems pretty cool too. Squirrel/one-hit wonder. L
LOIE: Onemore from southern California, near San Diego. Flying squirrel from Hawaii (!) I’ve never met anyone who actually goes to that site. She has a guitar and a ukulele with her.
ARIEL: Asian girl with glasses that I think was here last year. She seems kind of quiet.
MARGARET: A very fast-talking blonde with a high voice. She was here last year too, but I never really talked to her.
SOO: Doesn’t like being called Sue. She came here from JHU to take Pop Cult.
FIFI: Also from JHU. I talked to her over Project Future a bit. Onemore, I think.
SAM: Sam Reback. I know her from last year. Some call her “squirrel” even though this is her third year.
ALEX: She was, apparently, responsible for some of the Rauch 3 antics last year, including bra dangling. She seems like quite a loud person, but awesome.
Clare seems to have mellowed out a bit since last year, which is nice, but the rules have become stricter. Grass orgies are illegal!!! And we can’t hug anyone for longer than three seconds. This is going to get mocked. Also, we can’t show bra straps. WTF is this? Are we supposed to sew up all our shirts now? No one knew about the rule before hand.
Coed lounges are Thomas 1 and Schnader. No balconies, darn. I was looking forward to more good times in Mull 2, or finally seeing Atlee Dubbs with the Coke machine.
In the middle of hall meeting, in came…a girl named Lilly! She’s a flying squirrel from LMU and has a lot of energy. She seemed cool, so I adopted her. We’re still waiting for one more girl who’s not here, but we had to take a campus tour so we did that, and ran into Rowan (who gives hugs now!) and Little Pickle (AWWWW!) during it. I also saw Ryan for all of two seconds. After tour, we played Duck Duck Goose and Mafia until it was dinnertime.
I barely ate anything for dinner because I was always up and down, talking to people. I intro’d Lilly to Russian Sam and Joe Lodin, and said hi to lots more people (Faye, Verity, Shoff, whose hat I stole, Ryan, Miles, Ian, Colin, Max, Declan, Arthur, Violin Sam, Wesley.) Then to the ASFC for opening ceremonies, where I’m sitting and writing this.
My lanyard is blue and ID card is orange. Color senses are appalled. The Academic Counselors actually did a pretty funny video, and now the SRAs are up and my hopes are confirmed—FRANK WANG IS BACK! Woot! This will help make up for lack of Adam Roush and Dermot.
We sat through the RA rule skits (this hug rule is ridiculous.) and the anti-swear word skit. I may adopt “Oh Golly” as my word. We’ll see. Then, finally, our classes were called and we met our instructor. Her name is Robin and our TA is Mike Schlegelmilch. He looks like a hipster, and Robin behaves like a mother.
The first class was just icebreakers and getting to know you exercises. We have three boys, and they are Ian (a skinny giant from Carlisle), Seth (who I didn’t talk to yet) and Andrew (who sat next to me and arm wrestled Robin.)
When we got back to our hall, our missing girl got here. Her name is Sydney and she’s from Maryland, and she was late because of a soccer tournament. Lilly got really excited when she heard that she runs track too. Those two will be morning run buddies. Had hall meeting and signed up for activities (we have to sign up for EVERYTHING from Monday to Wednesday. I do not like this. Signed up for scrabble tournament as my weekly, and sidewalk chalk, GLOW, and tradition discussion group as my dailies. No running because of my stupid dislocating knee. L )
I have been here 6 hours and have already gotten 11 quotebook worthy quotes!
Mom called and said that she talked to the DRL about the bra strap rule, along with a bunch of other parents. GO MOM!
CRAP! I left my Halloween cane at home!
Monday June 29
Woke up to find a ukulele lesson happening in my suite! Loie was teaching Soo how to play a song that I didn’t know but sounded good. Loie says it’s called “I’m Yours” by Jason Mraz. I shall have to download.
Breakfast hasn’t gotten any better. Still don’t feel like eating much, but said hi and gave hugs to everyone as they came in because our hall was right by the entrance to the right dining room.
First morning of classes was fine. We did a pre-assessment essay, which then spawned an Internet discussion. Then had lunch in the ex-LLRT room because the Alcove was being watched by RAs. Sasha was talking to the DRL in order to get rid of the RA presence, or at least make it so it wasn’t more than any other area. In the meantime, I sat next to Shoff and Ryan. Shoff kept tickling Ryan, and he makes weird noises when he’s tickled. I have to try that sometime. I also brought Lilly and introduced her to Declan and Ryan. Lilly also swears she’ll tickle Ryan when she gets the opportunity.
I’m writing with Ian’s fountain pen and there’s a purple stain on my right middle finger. We just finished reading an article on grammar by George Orwell. Yay angry white guys!
Moved on to the next round of Scrabble! Winner gets Rita’s but I think Ryan will beat me if it comes to that. But Scrabble was fun, and I met two people I didn’t know. Their names are Deena (onemore) and Megan (nomore). Megan’s in the Immaculata marching band, which I’M VERY JEALOUS OF >_<. I started singing Zappa’s “Catholic Girls” but she didn’t know it. Just as well.
Then at sidewalk chalk I met a very loud, awesome girl that flying-squirreled from JHU. Her name is Layna and we did some sidewalk chalk together. Then I rickrolled a path and did some obnoxious Infernite graffiti (for Declan.) Josh Mermelstein wrote a giant I LOSE on the blacktop, and got yelled at by all of us, even the RAs.
Went to study hall, read about ads. I listened to Girl Talk on Ian Garrity’s iPod and played “Here Comes Your Man” off my speakers, because he had a few Pixies songs on his iPod. Then he borrowed my speakers and I went to talk with my THEO A people. Met a girl named Midori from Germany who likes to talk in the third person.
Quad Time was fine. I ignored the RA suggested activity and tried/failed to glowstring. I an pretty sure Ian likes Loie.
New rule. THEY’RE NOT LETTING US TAKE OUR PANTS OFF DURING BLT! That is, if anyone is wearing anything with an “express lane” in front, it’s not kosher. It doesn’t affect me directly but there will be no chance of a pantsless Macarena this year. The guys will have to wear girl shorts!
GLOW tomorrow. And possibly Ryan owning me at scrabble. And maybe I’ll stop being frigid. And pigs may fly!
Tuesday June 30
Woken up at 6 by fire alarm! At least I wasn’t in the shower this time. Then went back to bed and was half asleep until I heard it again and yelled “NO WAY! I’M NOT GOING OUT AGAIN!” but then I realized it was coming from North Ben and facepalmed. We spied on the guys’ fire drill and took creeper pictures. It looks like Ian Loya got caught in the shower, much to the appreciation of a few Thomas 3 girls.
Had breakfast, dictated a game of Silent Football (that’s one thing off my list) that erupted into shenanigans. Turtle kept saying pronouns and got penance; he has to talk in rhyme for 12 hours. He’ll be normal by quad time. Had morning class, which was reading essays in the book and discussion. Then lunch in Alcove; tickled Ryan and finally ate something. Analyzed ads during afternoon class, and halfway through that it started pouring so they cancelled activities and said “go back to your dorms!!” On the way back to the hall, I found a branch on the ground which I wrapped in duct tape to use as a cane for tomorrow with my costume. We had Hall Bonding, which was playing apples to apples. Clare and Alex would not stop arguing, but it was all in good fun. I don’t think Clare laughed this much all of last year. I wanted to talk to Joe Lodin at dinner but couldn’t find him. Then Shoff and his stuffed unicorn distracted me. He kept sucking on the horn and sticking the unicorn in his pocket, and I had to yell “DON’T TOUCH THE HORN” when anyone wanted to pet it.
Before class, I met a new squirrel! His name is Erik, he’s from New Jersey, and he wouldn’t be more flaming if they poured brandy over him and lit him on fire. He provides some very good, if CTYI, quotes.
During evening session we started our first essay, which was about ad analysis. Mine’s from a honeymoon resort. Still no Joe during break, and no THEO B kid knows where he is, other than the fact that Kaitlin saw him walking towards Thomas with my RA. Hope he’s not in trouble. I braided Arthur’s hair since Joe wasn’t there.
During Quad Time we started an SF game (Elena was dictator) that erupted into shenanigans when the RAs played Hava Nagila, because of it being CTY Rosh Hashanah. That was a fun Q.T. until I heard why Joe was gone-HE BROKE HIS COLLARBONE WHEN HE WAS TRYING TO DO A NINJA ROLL! I love him, but he’s an idiot.
Had meeting, (no more bra strap rule) let Loie change in my room because her blinds fell down, sleep.
Wednesday July 1
-There are kids in Siberia, you know! (Sasha) -Guys! I am not a scratching post, you are not kitties! (Sasha) -Rush! His hair is so lush! He makes my heart flush! His generosity makes me gush! And when he hits me he makes a sound like SKRUSH! (Joey Botros) -Guys, don’t pick on Seth. He doesn’t have a hand fetish. Or a foot fetish. (Margaret)
Those were quotes form today. I rather stupidly left the Quotebook in my room and Clare wouldn’t let me go up and get it.
Got dressed in my costume and went to breakfast. I was Alex deLarge from Clockwork Orange, which got me a tacklehug from Shoff (he was Horribly Confused.) Little Pickle was a bumblebee, Turtle…something strange. Sasha the tooth fairy with a soda tab vest,, Faye was something with a long name (I told her she could be Carmelita Spats), Rachel a Generic Bond Girl, Alex a cat, Ian Garrity a Jonas Brother, Josh Mermelstein was Josh the Juggling Plumber, Katelin Spongebob, Sam B. a Ghostbuster, Skip was something royal, and Joe a cripple. L I told him, welcome to the club. His left arm’s in a sling, just like mine was.
I got Blammo spoon and target. His name’s Aaron Gertler and I don’t know him. Skip pointed him out to me, and he wears a backpack with his initials on it. Maybe that’ll help.
Worked on ad essay, had break, and played Presidents with Mongoose, Arthur and Katelin.
This morning I also met an interesting character named Joey Botros. He was dressed as Jack Sparrow and he is quite loud. All through breakfast he was running around asking “what’s a pirate’s favorite letter? ARRRRRRR!” and a little Asian girl kept roundhouse kicking him. Also, a guy named Alex K. who was dressed as an old man would chase after him and yell in an old man voice. I think I’ll find him at lunch.
Found him, and he was still being a pirate. Sat in Alcove, talked to Alcove people, comforted sad Joe Lodin and tickled Ryan. You’d think he’d learn not to have his back to me so often.
Helplessly hoping
Her harlequin hovers nearby
Awaiting a word
Gasping at glimpses of gentle true spirit
He runs
Wishing he could fly
Only to trip at the sound of goodbye
Wordlessly watching he waits by the window and wonders
At the empty place inside<
Heartlessly helping himself to her bad dreams
He wonders, did he hear a goodbye
Or even a hello?
They are one person
They are two alone
They are three together
They are for each others
Stand by the stairway
You’ll see something certain to tell you
Confusion has its cost
Love isn’t lying
It’s loose in a lady who lingers
Saying she is lost
And choking on hello
They are one…
That’s in case there’s open mic night. I want to sing that. And if there’s not, now I have the lyrics to CSN’s Helplessly Hoping.
Made it to the Scrabble finals. Tomorrow it’s vs. Ryan for the Rita’s. Had dinner and played “You Are A Pirate” off my speakers for Joey Botros, who did a crazy dance. Then I talked to Wesley, always as nihilistic and creeper-ish but strangely fun as ever, and met a girl with the most awesome name ever (Ceilidh Blood) which I pronounced correctly.
Finished essay in study hall, then ran to Quad while it was thundering and sang “Singin’ In the Rain” in my Alex DeLarge costume. Lawl.
RAWR! Phone charger won’t work!
We decorated Clare’s door for her birthday while she wasn’t looking. A bunch of us made signs and strung uninflated balloons up.
Thursday July 2
Got up, put bathrobe on, brushed teeth, grabbed blammo spoon, forgot Ava (the camera) went back for Ava. Ate breakfast, where Sasha was making Sasha/Joe slash fiction jokes. Supposedly, I like molesting cats, because I was petting Ryan and he’s a cat. Now we’re making satirical ads for our products. I’m worried about Joe; he seems really sad.
(skipped a bit of stuff here)
Songs to Sing Acapella:
Eli the Barrow Boy-Decemberists</ br> Helplessly Hoping-CSN</ br> The Boxer-S+G</ br> Drive-REM</ br> Golden Slumbers-Beatles</ br> Tiny Dancer-Elton John</ br>
The good news: Joe can stay at CTY. The bad: he has to have surgery on Tuesday, which means I’ll be spending my 16th b-day worrying about him.
Art of Courting and Wooing was amazing. Jesse Boring the AC that all the girls (and Erik) have a crush on, helped out, and he’s anything but his last name. Quotebook got so many good ones during that, mainly from Russian Sam.
Sasha and a few other people are circulating a petition-the Afterdance is in danger! The admin says that the Afterdance is making people late to bed, so we can’t have it UNLESS we get 4/5ths of the campus to say that shortening the dance is OK. We’re explaining to people what the Afterdance is, and they seem to like it. Hope the rest of the campus is as openminded as the Art of Courting and Wooing crowd.
Had dinner, had Study Hall, had Scrabble. It was a close game until Ryan bingoed on the last turn. 266-218. He gets the Rita’s.
Friday July 3
Got up, grabbed spoon, didn’t forget Ava or quotebook. Mermelstein played the Rickroll and the Dr. Mario Dance off his speakers at breakfast. Arthur got asked to be Riff Raff for RHPS. No word on my role yet, but Elena says I’ll be something.
When I went to get my vitamins at the Health Office, I heard the nurse talking. Someone’s getting sent home because of the flu! O.o None of that please. After that, talked to Erik and went to class where we watched Forrest Gump and I made a list of all the songs I knew on the soundtrack (which was a lot of them.) Halfway through, we read an essay that DESTROYED the movie, saying how it’s racist and it says that it’s OK to ignore the problems and that all the women in the movie are hookers (which is true.) Robin seemed to be taking that really seriously, which was unsettling.
At lunch, we started singing meme songs (Pokemon, Chocolate Rain) and then the KiVO staff told us to go outside so we did. My Blammo target was right next to me in the circle for Don’t Stop Believin’ and I didn’t see his spoon so I tried to blammo him, but the spoon had been behind my head, which was valid so he was safe. We also did half of Rock Lobster but we got called for class.
Had class, went to first AI of the session (which was pretty funny) and “1,2,3,4 Protest!” which was us running after the “bunny hunting” group yelling “1,2,3,4! We don’t want no bunny gore! 5,6,7,8! Save the bunnies, not the hate!” although some people yelled “5,6,7,8, Bunnies like to fornicate” and got yelled at by the RAs. Then played some Silent Football and went to dinner. There will be no love triangle drama involving Erik, thankfully. Everything’s sorted out. And I have an Afterdance song! I’m doing the Hokey Pokey with Arthur.
And more later. The guy can’t commit. Erik will be fine. He’s Erik. I’m wearing black shirt and skirt with red BLT shorts and fishnets to the dance, which is in the ASFC (ass-fuck…)) It’s not even going to rain! What is this madness? I’m not bringing Ava to the dance tonight.
Dance was fun. I mormon danced the entire thing, and waltzed with Sam Bauman to Iris (one thing off my list.) He’s short so dancing with him isn’t awkward. A bunch of us bombed the request list for “Heart Attack ‘64” but it didn’t get played. Mormon danced the rest of the night, and had fun during American Pie, which I managed to SEE this year!
(AFTERDANCE SKIPPED)
Spent the night in Lilly’s room talking. A creeper at the dance who used cheesy pickup lines was following her. Poor Lilly.
Saturday July 4
Woke up, got dressed, walked across the Quad being serenaded by people singing “Star Spangled Banner” very loudly off Rauch 3 balconies. Talked about music with Arthur at breakfast table. I have to look up Sunn0))). Then I played Apples to Apples on the Quad until it was time to go. Loie was there with her ukulele playing “I’m Yours” again. That song is so damn catchy.
Central Market was fine. I met an extremely cute puppy and I got some foods, (including lox which we all ate on the way back) but AYP was closed for July 4th. What kind of punks are they??? Wesley and I gave it the finger, and luckily Shae didn’t see it. But I don’t think she would have yelled at us, because Shae is awesome. Then went back to camp and played some blackjack at CTY Casino, and got 1000 dollars because I was wearing a rainbow belt for CTY Loves day. I also got 555 dollars from being lucky at blackjack, so that goes towards the auction. Hung out with Alcove people and listened to music outside Schnader, and Sasha explained the ice pick story to the squirrels and people who hadn’t heard it. (I stayed clear. I’ve heard that story.)
Dinner and then prepared for dance. IT’S OUTSIDE TONIGHT! I’m wearing my vinyl pants because if I wore them in the ASFC I’d die. No Ava at this dance either. I think I’ll only bring her to one.
Sam and I ran up and down the hall yelling “DANCE TIME!” before the dance, and then went out to the Quad. End of the World got played really early so the RAs would be able to see any runners. D.M.D. also got played, and EVERYONE DID IT! I wasn’t able to help teach it when they did it during Thursday Quad Time because I was getting pwned at Scrabble but it seems like the got on fine without me.
I Mormon danced for the slow dances. Seth, from my class, asked me to dance during Stairway and he was actually a pretty entertaining dance partner. Lancaster’s 4th of July fireworks were going off during that song, and we could see them from the Quad, so it was pretty damn awesome. American Pie was awesome as always, even though I didn’t see it being acted out because I was following Aaron Gertler through the entire thing. As soon as Dan Tracht yelled “AFTERDANCE” I tapped him and yelled “BLAMMO!” My new target is Rachel Schwartz.
Afterdance went well-the Hokey Pokey (my song) was really energetic, and all the drama has cleared up. DRL said 5 minutes before lights out that we couldn’t have sleepovers after all so we’re all pissed at him, and we have to move our mattresses back. (Well, I didn’t because it was in my suite, but everyone else did.)
Sunday July 5
Got up, did laundry, and hung out in Schnader Sub Lounge with people. We had a lovely Avenue Q and Tom Lehrer sing along, then migrated outside to play Silent Football. I also tried to sing La Vie Boheme during the sing along, but Sam Bauman yelled “NO! NO!” so that failed.
If my handwriting’s bad it’s because I’m on the Schnader rocking chair writing this. And Oedipus Rex is still stuck in my head. In a few I’ll have to go to Mandatory Fun. Mandatory Fun was the CTY Auction. There was Karaoke before that and I sang Brown Eyed Girl and watched Midori sing I Will Survive (and she’s awesome) then played Never Have I Ever and sat through the pie eating contest before our hall bid. We won the RA of our choice singing to us at lights out.
We didn’t do anything for Hall Bondage except stay on the hall and chill. I saw my target walking outside my window with no spoon but I couldn’t get her because that would mean a 3-story fall.
Had dinner, went to class, and went to Turkey Hill during Quad Time to stock up on snacks. I have to watch my cash.
These Pennsylvanian people sure love their fireworks! There have been fireworks visible four nights in a row. I took some pictures.
Monday July 6
42 quotes, one day! (Well, 43, but you get the idea.) Woke up, ate, helped Turtle with his meta-joke. He’s making as many variations on “The internet is not a dump truck, it’s a series of tubes” as he possibly can. I’ve also resolved to go the whole day without poking anyone. It’s getting a bit old, the way I greet people with a poke instead of a hello.
Dan Tracht’s camera and mine had a lovefest with some other cameras while Max Randhahn’s camera took pictures. Then went to class and I can’t remember what we did that morning, but I met someone extremely awesome during break. Her name is Vira and she’s in THEO A, and she is supposedly in love with Michael Crawford. I told her that she needs Viagra, and maybe a whack on the head. But I don’t want to hit her, because she’s adorable and short, like me. (Well, I’m short. Adorable, I’m not so sure about.) She hugged Ryan and made both of them fall over, which was lulz.
I signed up for Rock ‘n’ Roll Appreciation but didn’t want to do it so went to AI instead and pretended there had been a mix-up with the numbers. Good thing I did, because AI was actually funny and didn’t have a lot of memes. But then again, I failed at 24 Hours No Pokes at AI when Little Pickle was being too adorable for me to not boop her nose. Then I had Improv with Props, which was OK for one game, which was the “What are you doing?” game. I said “I’m on 4chan” when it was my turn and Colin Stanfill made the best facial expression ever! Too bad Ava was out of batteries. I don’t think the RAs knew what 4chan was, so they didn’t care that it was completely CTYI.
Later, at Quad Time, Sam Bauman ran up to me telling me that I needed to listen to “God,” which was the 4th movement of Saint-Saens’s Organ Symphony. I thought it would just be another one of Sam’s epic pieces, but I had been looking for that piece for 11 years! It was in the opening credits of Babe (which I still love), and I never knew what it was until now. (one part skipped here)
My makeup kit spilled all over my floor, so a blush and a powder shattered. I’m lucky it was nothing else! But now I have to clean it up tomorrow.
16 tomorrow.
Tuesday July 7
Happy birthday to me! Woke up and hugged people, and since 24 Hours No Pokes has been given up on, I poked Wesley Rian which meant Ceilidh and Dana K. joined in. He is such a spaz. Had breakfast, went to class, went to bookstore on break. There were two blank versions of the Quotebook left, so I bought them to pass down. Marnie will get one for 2nd session. The first session Quotekeeper is undecided, and I’m not going to do it at Passionfruit, mainly because I’m scared that the position will be refused. And that would be awkward.
Joe’s getting his surgery today. He left during morning break. I’m worried. He says he’ll text when he’s awake.
People sang Happy Birthday to me (no death metal this year) at lunch. Little Pickle sang it in Greek, so I have to remember to sing it in Dutch.
We’re talking about gender codes in class now, and I’m probably going to finish the Forrest Gump essay in class tonight. But, before that, I need to bring Vira to the Alcove. She is awesome and she knows Avenue Q lyrics.
Went back to my room to find my door decorated! Called parents then went to AI, and for the first time I was in the Sphinx! It was pretty cool, even though I never got to deliver a punchline. Then GLOW, which was really nice and delivered lots of quoteable quotes. Why did I wait so long to go there? Midway through, the “CTY Sampler” activity started looking in creeperishly, which was amusing.
Brought Vira to the alcove and witnessed an amusing exchange in which Vira ordered Ryan to get her ice cream, and he did it. He wouldn’t get me anything, that jerk. Had study hall, then Quad Time which was karaoke. I sang the Beatles’ “Helter Skelter” and got a bit of applause from the camp. Robin liked it a lot and tackled me afterwards. Talked to Sam for a while afterwards under a tree and had an RA staring at us, waiting for PDA to happen (which it didn’t). (some stuff skipped here) After Quad Time, Lilly, Ariel and I threw water out the window of the bathroom, fooling the hall below into thinking it was raining. They even had to call their RA.
During Hall Meeting, Clare told me I had a package, and it was from Aunt Julie! She sent her Most Holy and Orgasmic Brownies. I love my Aunt Julie.
Wednesday July 8
It’s halfway through the session and I already have more quotes than I got in the entirety of last year. Some people think I should pass it down, some don’t. I’m probably going to give it to a onemore.
Today’s “unmarked day” for our class so we had to wear the most generic clothes imaginable. Got up and went down to the cafeteria to find that it was Christmas and I was required to wear a cleavage hook. It was’t very comfortable so I told Shoff to wear it, and Dan said that guys can only wear cleavage hooks if they have chest hair and cleavage. So then Shoff had to show off his chest hair and cleavage. DO NOT WANT! XD
In morning class, we talked about what’s art and what’s just created to make money, and during break I talked to Vira more. I like her more every time I talk to her. The beginnings of a pavement orgy started but I couldn’t join in.
At lunch, it was the “birthday party” for all the CTYers that had a birthday during session, and there was a very large cake with all of our names on it. It amused Ceilidh that they spelled her name right on it, because no one ever does. Unfortunately, it wasn’t that good a cake, but what can you expect at CTY? I had some brownies instead (stolen from Vira, of course.)
Midway through lunch, a kid in the Alcove said “Carlisle’s been closed” to me, and I was all “whut?” I told Ryan and Brandon, and they didn’t believe it (Brandon held up an imaginary “citation needed” sign)So Ryan and Colin Stanfill went to talk to the site director, and she said yes, Carlisle is closing. That news proceeded to spread like wildfire around, and there were many Carlisle jokes during AI that day. Some people think it’s because of swine flu, but the site director says it’s just because of flu. That has to suck for those Carlislians, especially the nomores.
Pirates vs. Ninjas turned out to be a game of dodgeball, but we had the ever dramatic Joey Botros to entertain us on the pirate side, which was fun. RA Shannon kept saying bzzt-worthy things about balls (I.e. does anyone here have any balls?) but I couldn’t say anything. Just as well. On the way back, we started singing “set Frank Wang on the drunken sailor,” getting us a few funny looks from the great man himself.
Had dinner, had evening class. Quad Time was hanging out in Schnader Sub-lounge with Elena, Little Pickle, Mermelstein, and others. Rudy Garcia has been quarantined in the Health Office for showing “flu-like symptoms” but they’re gone and he may not be sent home. <crosses fingers>
Thursday, July 9
Blammo targets have been rearranged. New target is Mermelstein. Had breakfast, and after that talked to Wesley and Ceilidh while trying to ward off Ceilidh’s brother (who is an annoying bastard.) Today for Pop Cult we’re supposed to be uber-marked so I wore pink tank, cow skirt, black and white striped leggings and bathrobe (because it is Thursday after all)
We talked more about gender in class, and afterwards Robin made us all wash our hands because of Carlisle. We all piled into the men’s room, even the girls, so we wouldn’t have to go upstairs to wash…until we spotted a guy in the stall and RAN!
Had lunch, had class, went to AI. Found out there that Max Randhahn makes some very silly noises when tickled. That boy is adorable. There was an OK Sphinx, then went to GLOW. We talked about marriage, Iowa, and Massachusetts (GO MASSACHUSETTS) Sam read from the Hiker’s Guide at dinner, and afterwards we all went to talk to Rudy by his window. He says that there’s no chance he can stay, and we all air-hugged him goodbye. Then I played the DMD for him and we all did it, so I decided to see what reaction American Pie would get. We did a full American Pie with about 15 people outside Rudy’s window, which was pretty damn awesome. No Afterdance because we had to go to class.
Right before class, I heard that Colin Stanfill was sick and being sent home, so we decided to Pie-roll him as well. Organized people and staff support during break, but he had already been picked up by the time we got there! L Poor nomore…
I managed to get on an AYP trip because of a very nice person who gave her spot up so I could finally go. If you are reading this, thank you.
Had meeting, got a package from home with a few novelty gifts in it, and called Josh F. and talked to him for a half hour after lights out.
Friday July 10
My voice is going, so I drank some tea. At least my appetite is normal, so I know I don’t have the flu. I could not take leaving now. Ian M. started tickling people at breakfast, but surprisingly Ryan did not make funny noises. I always make funny noises, so Ian M. got a reaction out of me. Had class in which we made collages, had break, had lunch.
Received this announcement: Blammo has been ended for all games because the Health Office has started confiscating spoons, believing them to be a disease spreader. Everyone still in has been declared a winner. And I guess I did last longer in Blammo than I did last year.
We went outside for afternoon break to find that there was graffiti outside Keiper, courtesy of Wesley, making us all lose! Fob you, Wesley. After class, I went back to my room to get clothes to trade with Ryan for Second Saturday, and he forgot to bring mine to AI. AI was OK but not laugh-out-loud, unless you count Max’s tickle reactions again. The boy is adorable and I’m going to ask him to dance tonight.
I mainly sat under a tree and read for Graffiti Jake, which was writing on RA Jake’s new white clothes. We had to keep it CTYA, so it was pretty boring unless you count Yida (who makes the same joke at every AI) walking by and asking if it was acupuncture.
Had dinner, and Ryan brought clothes to me. I also lent Wesley a skirt (he had better wash it!) Then up to the room to change and prepare for dance. Beginning of dance was fine, (whole camp got Rick Rolled and Turtle led the dance) but I couldn’t go on the EOTW line because people were running. I had Ava, so I took pictures instead. After that, they played some random rap song where we did the Domino Dance and Generic Gangster Dance. And then Ryan started making out with a tree for no reason.
I tried taking rave pictures, but they all turned out bad, so Dan Tracht gave me some tips. This means I’ll have to bring Ava tomorrow as well. They then played “Take Me Out” again, which was extremely fun to dance to.
I stripped for BLT this time.During Nightswimming I got extremely sad because of nomore-ishness, so I went and sat behind an arch. Don’t Stop Believin’ got played after that, and Squirrel Rachel from Shannon’s hall coaxed me out. Danced the rest of the night, no matter what the songs were. I asked Joe to dance during In Your Eyes and I started crying again (hope this is the moon, otherwise I’ll be a blubbering mess during the last dance.) Crying meant I buried my head in his shoulder and the RAs busted us for so-called “PDA,” which wasn’t too good. Also asked Max to dance for Stairway, and he’s a very nice dance partner. Forever Young was on the circle, and after American Pie it was such a relief to not have to take my spoon out!
Afterdance went well, and I’m not going to have a voice tomorrow AT ALL. We had sleepover tonight-everyone in one suite-and we sketchycalled Ian G. Alex kept saying in a low voice ‘I’m NAKED! I’M SO NAKED!!!” and I had to bite my lip to keep from cracking up.
Saturday, July 11
Woke up earlier than I wanted but couldn’t go back to sleep, so I showered and changed into Ryan’s clothes. Guy clothes are so comfy! I may need to get me a pair of those shorts. Brandon Carreno commented that I looked like Ryan (and sounded like him, because MY VOICE IS GONE.)
Hung out on Quad, took pictures, and helped guys with their boobs. I took some dresses out of my room to give to people who weren’t crossdressed, and tried to persuade Andy Smith to do it (some yelling of “ANDY, CROSSDRESS!” happened) then went back up to Thomas to throw a dress down to Joey Botros before Central Market. I didn’t get any weird stares from the Amish, but maybe that’s cause I didn’t look especially like a girl trying to look like a guy. Joey definitely did. Then AYP, where everything was so expensive and I had no money, but I got purple hair dye.
Upon return to camp, I wanted to see what Ryan looked like in my clothes, but Declan said he was feeling sick and is lying down. Hope he’s not sick. I ignored the carnival and talked to people, and then decided that I wanted to dye my hair so I went back to my hall. Changed out of Ryan’s stuff into sports bra and shorts, took hairdye and orthodontic rubber bands for tying hair (nice to know they’re good for something), and went into bathroom to find about 2/3rds of my hall there either dying their hair or helping. So we had a hairdying party, soundtracked by my speakers and M.I.A. and the Pixies. I didn’t like the way my hair came out after the first dying, so afterwards I went back up, changed into girl clothes, put more purple in, and cut the back of my hair off so it didn’t look like a mullet.
Clare’s hall will be making an impression tonight-half the hall has unusual hair! (Rachel is all red, Lilly has orange streaks, Alex has a dark red streak, Sam has one orange streak, Soo has blue streaks, Margaret is all pink, and I have purple streaks.) Loie and Alyssa want to do theirs later.
Packed the costume hamper for RHPS and took it down to outside North Ben, where rehearsal was happening and cross dressers were hanging out. All I can say is, Wesley is not getting a job anytime soon if people check the Facebook pictures. Then had to change into costume for RHPS so Matt could check if it was kosher. (Costume: black tank with black corset on top, green zebra pants, heels, black feather headband) Mine passed, and so did everyone else’s. I lent out some stuff, and we learnt our Transylvanian steps for RHPS.
Ryan has not emerged all day. I’m worried.
He came down during dinner and ate, but then he said he’s going to the Health Office. Stupid swine flu (which he had BETTER NOT HAVE.) After dinner, hung out outside, and I told Wesley the Ice Pick story.
Before I went back to Thomas, Turtle started…a NAME TRAIN. I tried to avoid it with the “Stop don’t touch me there” meme but my voice was gone so it was incoherent. Name train broke up when Sam B. yelled “YOU! SHALL NOT! PASS!” and charged at the name train, breaking it apart. Lawl.
At the dance, mainly hung out on the sides for non-canon (it was in the ASFC and VERY HOT) until Time Warp, which was at 8:42. It was awesome-I had fun dancing even though my voice was GONE by then. Arthur’s slide during Time Warp almost hit the audience, and he looked INTENSE Rachel was also really cute as Columbia, and I gave her a cheer when she pranced out. Sweet Transvestite was great-Ian M. is a perfect Frank and the audience screamed when he de-bathrobed. He also flashed his underwear at the end by crossing and uncrossing his legs really slowly, and I was in the direct line of fire for that. DO NOT WANT! (Well, he does give very nice back massages.)
Afterwards I danced a bit more, but then the lights turned on and everyone was shooed to the side. A girl had fainted in the middle of the floor, and all the RAs were running around and speaking in hushed tones. I loosened my corset so that wouldn’t happen to me, and we were sitting down for about 15 minutes before the dance continued. They skipped BLT, which wasn’t good.
I asked Russian Sam to dance during Stairway, and he was the most entertaining dance partner I’ve ever had. Don’t remember what we talked about, but I was never awkward or bored. And that’s good.
During Brightside and Forever Young, I stood as close to the speakers as possible. If I go deaf, I’ll go deaf happily knowing that was the last sound I heard. It seemed magical, like the songs were going right through me and I was part of it and so was everyone else. Tbut then of course I had to trot (not allowed to run, xD) towards the center to watch Pie.
After Pie, the RAs said that the afterdance would have to be in the ASFC because of lightning, but then they started shooing us out, so the Afterdance happened while walking. It was pretty poorly organized, but it was the longest “CTY HAS A NICE BUTT!” ever, annoying the RAs. And that made me laugh, even though I was inaudible by then.
No sleepover tonight. I stayed up till 1 AM with “Forever Young” on repeat. When that is played at the last dance, I will be a wreck.
Sunday, July 12
Woke up, put laundry in, made tomato soup, and went out on Quad with my speakers to find people. I found Sarah Parr, and more people joined us. So we started listening to the Velvet Underground and “being relatively happy.” Erik put on a song called “After Hours” which I had never heard before, and I sat there and drank it up, and drank up everyone and CTY. (A/N: What’s with my writing?)
I went to get meds and asked if Ryan was OK, because he hadn’t been at the dance. He was already gone! WTF? L Another nomore gone…No one was happy to hear that, and when I called Ryan on my “calculator,” Vira yelled at him for getting sick. I was a bit tired, so I used Max R. as a pillow. He was a very nice pillow. Then we listened to Ian reading a bit of a trashy romance novel about a guy with wings that is sent to be a sex slave. It was pretty bad.
At about 10, Turtle handed us some strange cardboard circles, purpose unknown to us, and told us to be on the Quad at 11. None of us were really planning on going anywhere, so we stayed there, (I had to get laundry and get a honey stick for my voice but then came back) until 11. At about the set time, Turtle came running across the Quad in a giant Pac Man costume yelling “wakka wakka wakka.” So that’s what the circles were for. I tossed my circle in his mouth as he ran by, being chased by Sasha, Joe, and Jesse Boring as ghosts. Win, guys.
Had lunch, and then a bunch of us congregated on the Quad to listen to Sasha reading a book called “Those Darn Squirrels”-first normally, then in the Soviet Russian version, in which “Old Man Fookweier” was replaced with “Old Comrade Fookweier” and the squirrels were communists. Then had to go back to the hall for Mandatory Fun, of which the only fun part was throwing balls at Frank Wang and Jesse (and talking to Midori, Vira, Rowan and Little Pickle) We finished our “quest” early so we went back to the hall, and Alyssa dyed her hair with my purple dye. Lilly also did henna for me on the back of my hand, and it looks professional. Then we played Tanks with a guys hall, and my partner for the first round was my old Blammo target. I got out first that round. Then I got paired with Quanah Potts, and that was better-we won that round. There were many “do a barrel roll” jokes made during that Hall Bonding.
We had dinner, and after dinner Russian Sam started reading from My Immortal, which is a Harry Potter fanfic widely regarded as the worst fanfic ever. I’ve read it and I concur with that. It is so fail that it’s win, especially when whole blocks of story are just copypasta from earlier. Whenever that happened, we’d yell “RECURSION RECURSION RECURSION!” We’d also yell “FATALITY” when someone died and then was resurrected.
We got up to about the 17th chapter before we had to go to class, but Russian Sam promised to continue at Quad Time. As I was walking to the study hall meetup spot, Wesley and Dana came running over with Wesley in a far better (and more creeper-ish) mood than he usually was in. He had chugged a whole bottle of Venom energy drink. Oh good lord. I would not like to be Dana, or anyone in his class, right now. Or maybe I would like to be, for the lulz.
Had study hall which was a discussion about Web 2.0, watched and took pictures of Wesley being a creeper at break, more study hall, then went to Quad Time. The reading did continue, with some chapters so badly spelled as to be incoherent. People started reading it in accents, and Alex Lu’s 13 year old girl impression was the best, especially since he got to do “RAVEN WHERE’S MY SWEATER?”
I also had to explain Goatse to Ceilidh. Don’t want to go over how I did that, but Wesley was still on Venom and would not stop laughing.
Up till midnight tonight because my stomach was hurting, but I walked up and down the hall and drank some water and felt better. Still no voice. Oh dear FSM let me not have swine flu!
Monday July 13
Woke up, (found out WHY I was feeling crappy last night as soon as I did, >_>) went to breakfast and had KIVO bagel with salmon cheese, as usual. (What would I do without KIVO?) I was wearing a pair of light jeans and was carrying my Sharpies, so I asked everyone I saw to sign my pants. After eating, we read more of My Immortal outside Bonchek. RAs keep coming over so it’s a bit difficult to read it now, considering the poorly written sex scenes in it are laughable but since they mention “you know whats” and “boy thingies,” they’re probably CTYI,
Worked on my Web 2.0 essay and got my song analysis back. It got destroyed by Robin, and that’s OK because it wasn’t very good anyway. During break, we went to the bookstore and I found a book of ads from the 70s on sale, including an extremely phallic cologne ad that I took pictures of before giving the book to Robin. She told me to sign it so she’d remember me when I’m famous. Ha! Yeah, right. I also got a tin of cinnamon altoids (because of Ev and “cinnamon altoids give you charisma”)
Walked to lunch to find the grounds covered with lepers! Or just HDIS kids with lesions painted on. Max and Turtle are the most adorable lepers ever. Then went to the mailroom (got nothing) and quickly sprinted back to eat something because TA Mike is now making us wait at the spot at 12:50 to make sure no one’s late.
During afternoon break, Vira was squealing over a TA’s Hello Kitty hat, and she tried it on and mugged for the camera. (I also tried it on but it didn’t look as good on me.) She kept mugging afterwards, and because she’s adorable and Asian and was wearing a tank top and shorts I said “got loli?” and she didn’t know what that was. I had to explain loli and Pedobear to her, and she looked a bit creeped out afterwards. (It’s what I do.) Vira had better come back. She says she loves it but doesn’t know if her parents would let her. I said no parent would make their kid only go for one year if they loved it that much, and I hope that’s true for her. CTY needs more like her.
At AI before the migration to North Ben (we’ve been doing that lately because of the construction site and its jackhammering) Turtle kidnapped Ava and proceeded to do the most intense Myspace picture shoot ever. Most of the photos are of him and Shoff being creepers, but there were a few of Declan, Max and me in there. Brandon also photobombed it.
AI was fine (RA Shannon yelled FREEZE when she thought a skit was being CTYI, so she then had to go in and act herself) and Mafia turned into Silent Football, which I dictated. Sam Bauman and Brandon were in the Universe, so good fun was had.
Went to dinner to find that the chairs were moved off to the side in the Alcove, so a bunch of people ate on the floor. I didn’t because I was already at a high table and didn’t want to move, but I took some pictures. Afterwards was more My Immortal, with a brief break to observe someone being locked on Klein/Kunkel balcony. We all started chanting “LET HIM IN! LET HIM IN!” and Turtle ran up to help, but by the time he got there, the locked out boy had already climbed through the window.
Had class, worked on essay, and ditched My Immortal at quad time after it started being incoherent and not funny. Instead, hung out with Layna, Russian Sam, Max and others under a F+M blanket on the lower steps of the South Ben terrace. At the end of Quad Time, someone came running over and said that Brandon was being sent home. I was all “WTF, he was fine this afternoon in Silent Football” but apparently he went to the health office and had a fever, so he’s going home. Another nomore/nevermore out! Hoping there’s no more nomores leaving.
Tuesday July 14
Up, breakfast, sang Happy Birthday to Midori, learned how Turtle wishes people happy birthday (DO NOT WANT) and lay on Sasha’s air mattress for a while on the Quad until I got kicked off. Turtle stole the camera for a while again before I was able to get it back. I also managed to photograph Aidan (Ceilidh’s brother) who’s a bastard.
Started the draft of the final essay in the morning, had lunch, then had class in Keiper because THEO B was using our room, and we finished the draft. Robin called it the QUICK!!! PRESSURE!!! ESSAY!!! And I managed to finish on time. We managed to see part of a Pomm/Dimby skit, and Dimby seemed to have a whip, which got him some odd looks from my class.
We had the last activities, which for me were AI and GLOW. Parkbench was as memeful as ever, and all the other games were ones that I liked. For Sphinx all the nomores were invited up, and it was incoherent but fun anyway. Then GLOW, which had to move to an area behind Ware because there were 80 people. We had just enough cupcakes. Russian Sam gave a really good speech during that about sexuality and its definitions, the text of which I wish I took down. Shoff also speechified about how CTY taught him about orientations other than straight. I can’t even imagine Shoff being not his Shoffy self, and what he must have been like before he came to CTY.
Ian Loya has been sent home due to flu. Another nomore, and three days before the end. That has to suck.
After dinner, I was having a bit of nomore-itis, so I sat down in a lawn chair outside the Dining Hall for a while and listened to Pink Floyd. Wesley came over and we talked about being nomores/nevermores, and because I was feeling down, he offered me a bottle of Venom to cheer me up. I had about a quarter of it, and my eyes felt like they were being pulled open by that machine in Clockwork Orange. Why do people drink that stuff??
Wrote the final draft of the final essay in study hall, and hopefully my writer’s cramp will ease up now. XD Quad Time was the lip sync contest, and most of the entries were entertaining. Joe, Sasha, Turtle and Miles did “Carry On My Wayward Son” with Guitar Hero guitars, Ian Garrity was part of a group that did Everytime We Touch, and Mary, Duncan, Kate and a few others did a whole choreographed routine to “”I’ll Make a Man out of You,” which got lots of claps.
Margaret must have been inspired by the Disney, because she started singing Disney songs out the Thomas 3 bathroom window, and people across the Quad in North Ben started yelling things back. I started singing the Rickroll (MY VOICE IS BACK! WOOT!) and then it was bedtime.
Wednesday, July 15
Got up and had breakfast in which Dan Tracht was doing some very sketchy things with a tripod. Someone also Rick Rolled the table, and Erik called “never gonna give you up” a sad song. The Hedgepuss was being passed around, and I had a cutespaz over that but then wondered if it had swine flu. Sometime during breakfast, I started playing “Here Comes Your Man” off my speakers again, and it reminded me of the first day when I was playing it for Ian during break. How long ago that seems. Max remarked that he liked that song and the Pixies, but he didn’t know “Where Is My Mind” so I played that before class.
I attacked him on the way to class with my incredible tickling powers. His fault for wearing a box over his head. Turtle had to guide him up the Appel steps.
The activity in class was a debate over whether Web 2.0 is positive or negative. I was on the positive side, and I helped draw the poster and didn’t completely fail at drawing a pointing finger, which surprised me.
Monk Walk was during lunch today, so I hit myself in the head with the Quotebook as we went around the dining room twice. I also skipped out of line to whack Wesley for not monk walking with the rest of us, and Ceilidh cracked up.
More debating in the afternoon, and antics trying to get a Frisbee down from a tree on Old Main. The THEO B kids tried to make a human pyramid to get it down when just shaking the tree sufficed. Human pyramid was useless, but very funny. I also took some more adorable photos of Vira.
We were the first ones to get to the talentshow and therefore, got front row seats. I sat with Lilly, Max, Alex Lu, and Brenton (even though Max and I were also wearing fedoras, everyone calls that kid Fedora) The MCs were good this year, one of them being Pop Cult’s own Ian Garrity. Joey Botros and Alex Kohanski were also hilarious MCs. The acts I remember: Mary Kamitaki sang some song about the moon (she has a great voice!), Bryan Cardella did some CTYI standup comedy (the phrase “go copulate with yourself” will probably be repeated for the next 48 hours among CTYers) and Sarah, Arthur, and Aman (was that his name?)’s “indo-celtic anti-folk.” Matt Lee’s diabolo was also very entertaining, and when Dana Katznelson performed “The Complete Works of William Shakespeare” with a sousaphone onstage, many yells of “SHOFF!” could be heard around the ASFC. I do not want to think of the tuba porn that Shoff found…
There also was a skit midway through that involved RA Joey and RA Charlie pretending to be crazy parents, and Joey, who played the mom, said that there was a “cult called the Alcave who wear bathrobes and kill each other with spoons!” Charlie: “That’s Alcove.” Joey: “No, I think it’s “Alcave.” Like the terrorist group!” The audience loved it.
After that, there was an RAs vs. TAs dance off. The TAs (including Mike Schlegelmilch) danced to Thriller, which changed midway to “Never Gonna Give you Up.” RAs did “Boom Boom Pow” and Frank Wang was wearing underarmor, much to the appreciation of a few members of the audience. He can dance! Shae, the other lead dancer, was awesome as usual.
Ate dinner and found Vira with a Swine Flu doll that was almost as adorable as her. Went to study hall and wrote letters to Robin, then went to Quad Time for the mandatory slideshow that I didn’t contribute to. Robin must not know how to delete photos because about half of them were of our class, and she also doesn’t know how to crop photos because it auto-cropped the vertical ones, and they’re all crotch shots of us.
They didn’t Hanson-roll this one; the music was actually OK slideshow music except for Good Riddance (time of your life) which always pisses me off when someone uses it in a happy slideshow. IT”S NOT A HAPPY SONG!
My pants are so colorful now! I don’t want to see any blue unless it’s Sharpie by the end.
Friday (Thursday) July 16
Woke up and grabbed the new Quotebook, which I have decorated and written the names of the Quotekeepers in, first and second session. Went downstairs with it hidden, sat on it, ate a bit, and when Vira walked in I called “Vira, I got something for you!” and pulled it out from under me. She said “now I’ll have to come back, won’t I?” now she will. Take THAT!
Had class, which wasn’t really “class.” We went to the library and typed up our essays for the class anthology. I put my last one in there. Afterwards, we were given the opportunity to go on Facebook and surf. I surfed a bit and checked my email, but I refuse to go on Facebook till I was out of CTY. CTY is sort of like my break from FB, and I checked my birthday messages on Tuesday. That was enough for me. We fooled around with Photobooth a bit too, and I tickled Ian on video. He’s like a very tall kitten.
Robin took us all to the mail room before lunch, and I got letters (finally.) It was a huge envelope of letters from Marnie, and I MISS HER SO MUCH. I read them quick then dashed to dance to Canon outside Thomas. The last dance is full length this year, and Canon is only being played during lunch, so we’ll have time for an actual Last Supper, unlike last year.
After lunch we had to write a post-assessment essay but my mind was all over the place with the fact that holy crap in 24 hours I’ll be back with my parents and I don’t want this to end! Afterwards we had a floorgy and listened to the mix. Robin’s song on it was “I’m Yours,” and we all started singing along and it was lovely.
After class there were no activities, just packing. I cleaned my room with the window open while singing “Across the Universe,” and I think I heard someone singing back. My little pod room was such a mess…so much for keeping it neat. I packed everything except what I need for tomorrow and Saturday (we’re picking Jacob up at his camp) but my mattress is still full of stuff.
We finished packing early, so we had a water balloon fight with Rush’s hall and another hall. I managed to not get soaked, but Clare got pretty wet. Frank Wang actually taught us about strategy of throwing water balloons, but it all erupted into shenanigans anyway.
I wasn’t very hungry, so I got some fries and Coke and went to the Last Supper in LLRT, which had some quite good speeches. Dan is going cameraless at the dance tonight, and Sarah read Sylvia Plath. Sasha is our son. Verity wanted to read her sexual poem, but it was CTYI so she had to read the depressing poem. JT does not like long speeches. I don’t want the Quotebook to be a huge responsibility on Vira. It’s all a blur now.
I may have gotten the most epic picture ever of Frank Wang before study hall. We went to study hall and did nothing. Robin had planned an evening of sharing essays but no one wanted to do that. We just floorgied more and listened to the mix. Then back to the hall to prepare. I’m wearing my black dress, flats and fishnets with purple fake corset, purple sash and vinyl skirt underneath for BLT. Bringing my last glowsticks, and sticking my tin of cinnamon Altoids in my cleavage.
We got to the dance a bit late, and missed Blister in the Sun. They played Take Me Out right after we got there, and I rushed the dance floor to dance to that for the last time. Whenever I listen to that now, it won’t look right without Katelin Schutz singing and stomping her foot in front of me.
They played Birdhouse and I jumped even though I’m not supposed to. A bunch of people yelled “FATALITY!” right after “countless screaming Argonauts” and it made me laugh.
I was in the front row for Dr. Mario, swinging my shoulders and punching with my glowsticks. Will I ever do the DMD with glowsticks again?
Sandstorm was the rave. I jumped in the pit with my purple glowsticks/green bracelets and freehanded. If I’m an RA, I’ll be able to rave. I must learn how to glowstring, but freehanding was cool. I wish I’d done it sooner.
After the rave, went to get water and saw Vira and Ian MacKinnon sitting by the corner, and made a “no seducing” comment.
Speaking of Ians, was that Ian Loya I saw?
The last BLT was going to be epic…but got interrupted by a head check. I was confused at first, but then got the scoop from Max. They thought they saw a CTYer getting in a car. Perhaps that was Ian? THEY WILL NOT SKIP CANON. THEY WILL NOT.
Nightswimming. I danced with Max and started crying midway through, which meant I danced too close, which meant an RA tapped my shoulder and told me to break it up. Not even the fact that I was crying or the fact that our faces were about a foot apart can stop the RA banhammer.
They played Metro Station’s “Shake It” and I DESPISE THAT SONG but I danced to it all the same, just to not be on the sidelines.
In Your Eyes. On the circle.
Stairway. I was on the circle for a while then danced with Max one last time. Headbanged, held my glowsticks up for the Stairway.
Brightside. Stood as close as possible to the speakers. I heard Faye’s voice, one octave above the rest of ours, and I’m not going to have a voice tomorrow but I don’t give a flying fob.
Forever Young. On the nomore circle. Everyone is crying. I pushed Vira off so she won’t get the curse (if a non-nomore/nevermore goes on the last FY circle, it’s bad luck.) and it might have been a bit of a bitch move by me but she needs to come back.
American Pie. Ran, screamed, “danced real slow” with Joe Lodin who I owe so much to for who I am today, sang every word even when I was out of breath. And I was smiling, until the last ‘DIE DIE DIE DIE” when I realized that I would never yell this again, and I yelled “NO!” I was crying, and Joe was crying, and all the nomores were. I screamed my loudest for “in the streets the children screamed,” yelled “BROKEN CHURCH BELLS DON’T MAKE SOUND” for “clang” and screamed “SO DOES NEW JERSEY” with only the fury of someone who has to go back there the next day. The last chorus went on forever, and I was, for the first time, right in the center of the end.
“AFTERDANCE!” yelled Dan Tracht. It didn’t rain, so the Afterdance was to be outside Thomas. I realized that they didn’t play Iris at the dance, and I started singing it, and Deborah Bakshiyev and Sandra Chen and Brenton Whiting joined in, and no the whole camp did not start singing it but some people did. After I ran out of verses around the end of the footbridge, I sang the chorus all the way back to Thomas in an increasingly shaky voice, scared that if I stopped singing it I would really cry, so much that I couldn’t walk.
Joe wasn’t there for the circle chant, so Dan Tracht led it. Beer stayed in time for once. Eyelashes, Tentacles, Cows. I walked into the center with Arthur for my last Hokey Pokey and started singing “Happy Birthday” to Little Pickle, who turns 16 on maybe the saddest night of the session. Then the last Hokey Pokey, with Cthulhu at the end. Rachel skipped into the center yelling “CTY HAS A NICE BUTT!” and soon Maddie, Faye, Elena, Verity and I were prancing and stripping around the center. They let CTY Has A Nice Butt go on long last year but I think they were scared of having something like 08.2 Passionfruit happen, because they kept it short. I stomped up the stairs of Thomas yelling “CTY HAS A NICE BUTT!” along with all the others, not even stopping when I got to my room but yelling out the window “CTY HAS A NICE BUTT! CTY WE LOVE YOU! I’M NOT GOING TO HAVE A VOICE TOMORROW, I’M NOT GOING TO HAVE A VOICE TOMORROW! CTY WE LOVE YOU! CTY HAS A NICE BUTT! CTY WE LOVE YOU! BUT I DON’T CARE, I DON’T CARE! CTY WE LOVE YOU!” I stopped to yell “HEY IAN MACKINNON, IS VIRA STILL SAVING HERSELF FOR MICHAEL CRAWFORD?” (She is.) But other than that, I screamed it until an RA told me to shut up.
We’re allowed sleepovers. We sketchycalled Ian again, and I pretended to be Alex by yelling “I’M SO NAKED! I’M NAKED!” He actually didn’t believe it was me when I told him, and he said “Loie this isn’t funny!” My Alex impression must be better than I thought.
Thursday (Friday) July 17
I didn’t so much sleep last night as drift in and out of a state of consciousness. Woke up at 5:30, brushed teeth, splashed some water on my face, got my bag and Quotebook, and waited till 6 for Passionfruit. I sat close to the Trinity, next to Ian M., Max and Little Pickle. I spied Ian L. across the green, proving my theory from last night.
I took my Venom to Passionfruit, and consumed it slowly so I wouldn’t crash.
Dan kicked Passionfruit off with his welcome and the spilling of drink on the ground for all who have passed on. Then he speeched about how we should basically do what we love, and fuck the rest. Holy Ghost goes to Sam. Then Sasha, who walked around the circle while talking. Son goes to Turtle. Then Sarah Parr, who made a very short speech while watched by Sarah Hackney’s soul (a clay turtle). Father goes to Rowan. Jester goes to Faye, Stripper to Alex “Prenatal Vitamins” Natale. Elena and Alex Lu made speeches off camera, and the latter of the two sent Ari Brill to walk around within camera range during his speech. JT, Mermelstein, Arthur, and Max made very short speeches. Shoff said hi to all the people he didn’t know (a lot of people knew him this year because of his AI win), and Maddie made her speech in her rock school shirt and bathrobe.
My speech was short. I’ll post the text as soon as the Passionfruit video footage comes out, because I made it up on the fly. All I remember is that it was bookended with counterclockwise spinning (xkcd) to push back time, and the majority of the speech was me talking to myself as I was before CTY.
Little Pickle commented on how she felt tall because she could see over everyone’s heads. Ian M. chugged Bawls. Ian G. made a speech because he wasn’t sure whether he was coming back. Joe started his speech with “Hi, I’m Joe and I’m an alcoholi-wrong speech.” }} Katelin made the best speech at Passionfruit IMO; it was about her Spongebob boxers and how they’ve seen her through seven years. She was in tears by the end. Layna talked for a long time, but it was important for her to get her message out. Miles was the last real speech before the short toasts started because of time.
As I got up for End of the Tour, I noticed that my Venom spilled all over my bag, which means my bag, and hands, shall smell like mangoes until washed. Shall I forever associate the smell of synthetic mangoes with my last Passionfruit?
Then End of the Tour, which was played off Shoff’s bass amp in good sound quality. It was played twice, and I started crying during the second round. I walked to Stager to find no one there, and Rachel showed up a few minutes later. Mike had been waiting on the Quad for us, not knowing we were at Passionfruit. <_< We didn’t have to walk back; Robin called him and everyone came to the room for the party.
Party was listening to music and eating chips with dip, and getting my pants signed by Robin and Mike. Soo had to leave at 10, and I hugged her and told her that if I came to California I’d call her.
Mike played “In Your Eyes” and we all swayed in a circle, and I didn’t cry. He then played the Time Warp, and we all did it. Me and Rachel did Columbia’s part, so I suppose I was sort of Columbia at CTY, if only for the Pop Cult rendition.
I was walking to lunch when I noticed; someone had written “I LOVE YOU” in big Sharpie letters on a Quad path. It was clearly old graffiti, yet I had not noticed it. I then spent 10 minutes dragging over everyone who would see. Went back to the dorm to pack my last things, then had lunch during which Dan Salvato showed up! He stayed in the Alcove for a bit and then went outside, and I decided to follow him and see if any epic 4 square would happen.
On the way out of KIVO, I ran into Shae the RA, who had not signed my pants. While she was signing, the Beatles’ “Let it Be” came over the radio, and the KIVO staff started singing and Shae and I started singing too. It felt magical.
Went outside, turned keys in, and hung out with Dana, Max and Wesley outside North Ben and started a semi-grass orgy that dissolved due to Wesley being a creeper.
Vira left the quotebook in her room! She’ll get it back, but I can’t get a Quotekeepers’ picture. L
Migration happened, and the first real grass orgy of my nomore year happened on the last day. Some RAs gave us dirty looks, but they didn’t do anything because most of the people in it were nomores and they couldn’t do anything to us. My parents showed up in the middle of the grass orgy and were quite amused at how we were supposedly being careful against flu.
We packed the car (elevator wasn’t working so we had to lug suitcases down the steps) and I walked to closing ceremonies. Debbie spoke a bit, DRL Matt spoke a bit, an F+M rep spoke a bit plugging the school, and the HDIS skit performed. It was a parody of House, except with swine flu and flesh eating bacteria. Turtle was House and was very convincingly sarcastic, and Max was Chase and had an adorable fake Aussie accent. The girl who was Cuddy was suitably bossy (Edit by Max: Her name was Ilana) There were a lot of lupus jokes involved. After that the two repeat acts from the talent show went on, which were the diabolo and the Indo-Celtic Anti-Folk, except it wasn’t Indo anymore because the drummer had left.
Dan yelled “afterdance” afterwards, and we went through the Afterdance with a slightly diminished population. However, stripping was to be done during CTY Has a Nice Butt. After the last Afterdance, hugged everyone and talked to people, and took a photo of the Randhahns (Mr. Randhahn seemed to forget that there were four of them now instead of three.) Mom and Dad came out of the ASFC eager to leave, and I didn’t want to leave yet but they insisted. So the last photos of CTY, taken by Dad, are of me being spinny hugged goodbye and crying and smiling at the same time.
Took the Nomore Walk back to the car, as in me dragging my feet but waving goodbye to everyone, and Mom and Dad immediately had questions and I had answers. We went to get some ice cream in a shop that smelled awful, and what could I get but passionfruit flavored water ice?
We drove to Orson, in another part of PA, to pick my brother up, and we’re staying in a little inn with a lot of cats around. Petted the cats, took a walk. I feel like I had a very long dream and am waking up. Was any of this real?
Saturday July 18
Went to pick the brother up at camp, saw his “rock show.” I missed his performance due to being very hungry and getting food, but as I came back the group that was up was playing “I’m Yours.” I will forever think it sounds wrong without a ukulele.
Then was his second performance, the circus show, which was all set to Michael Jackson. He learned to spin plates, and I got pics of him and the other circus performers. I thought they were good pics, but nothing special.
And then they brought out the fire poi.
I put my camera on “rave setting” and snapped away.
