| − | Ok. I went to Loudonville in 2005 - not sure what session...2? I think? - and i took Chemistry. Which was nice, except I didn't have a whole lot of friends. And most of the people i hung out with were kinda jerks. (No offense, you guys, if you happen to be reading this. But you kinda were.) My RA Josh was real neat, though. It was there I got the nickname "Jimothy".
| |
| | | | |
| − | Let's see, my roommate was Frankie. He was a drummer. And there was also Geoff and Abishek (I have no clue how to spell it...), a.k.a. "Nelson". And Grace (one of the least-Jewish Jewish people I've ever met) and Christie (who used to date a real nice kid who looked EXACTLY like Frodo. Hence, his nickname. "Frodo".) And that was it for my class. Yeah, 6 kids.
| |
| | | | |
| − | It was Josh who gave me my 1st Coldplay CD. So, thank you, Josh the RA, for making me a huge Coldplay fan, wherever you may be.
| |
| | | | |
| − | As for the other kids I knew, oh, God, I barely remember any of them. If you're out there....just say "hi", i guess. I don't know.

| − | == Skidmore '06-ness ==
| |
| | | | |
| − | And in '06, I went to Saratoga Springs, session 2, and took Probability and Game Theory. 16 boys. NO GIRLS. You could almost SMELL our man pain...
| |
| | | | |
| − | I met a bunch of cool people, though. Hold on, lemme see if I can remember all of them...John, Bill, Deb, Eli, Anthony, Jen, Sam, David "KЯYP" Burns (not to be confused with David Byrne, former lead singer of Talking Heads), Beth, Ricky (who I didn't really know very well, but was still cool), Calvin, Pat, Lina, David "Bex" Becker, Tim (Sam's boyfriend, who I also never really got to know, but was still a real nice guy), the other Tim (also a nice guy, who, like many other CTYer's, can do a Rubik's Cube insanely fast), Janine, Blair,...um...oh! That kid who told me he would name his 2nd kid "Jimmy" and his first kid "Pretzel"! I think your name was John? I'm sorry...Uh, if I forgot anyone, again, I'm real sorry. Just let me know or something.

| − | | |
| − | I did not have a CTY crush, like some people do. I was, however, someone else's, which is nice, except that I found this out 2 days before the session ended. So...yeah.
| |
| − | | |
| − | I am, however, ('''UN''')happily single. Just wanted to point that out.
| |
| − | | |
| − | I was also present during the founding of the greatest religion ever in the history of foreverness - STEFANISM!!!!!!!11!! (I can't believe there's no page on it yet...) DOOT!!!!!!!!
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | I ALSO DAMMIT CAPS LOCK performed in the Talent Show. Singing and playing the piano. At the same time. Which was something I've never done before. Until then, of course. It was a medley of stuff. I was almost shitting myself, I was so nervous. And I sucked. I really did. Everyone said I was great, but I know I sucked. I got stuck in the middle of "Solfeggieto" and I forgot the words to "Angry Young Man". As soon as I made it to "Clocks", though, it got better. I love Coldplay. And Billy Joel.

| − | But enough about that.

| − | | |
| − | And now, in oh-scheven, I'm going back to Saratoga, session 2, taking Physics, and I'm gonna be a Nevermore. '''FUCK'''. (I always say "fuck" after I say that I'm gonna be a Nevermore. With good reason, if I do say so myself. FUCK.)
| |
| − | But I'm gonna do the best I can to make it the equivilant (spelllengg?) of an entire orgy packed into one person. Me. With lots of Canon musics playing in the background.

| − | | |
| − | Yeah.

| − | == Endy. ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | ANYWAY.

| − | | |
| − | I'm not gonna bore you anymore.
| |
| − | | |
| − | My life is filled with unbelievable, excruciating boredom, so if you feel like IM'ing me (please, go right ahead.), my AIM name is my user name - Fred3426. I'll gladly talk to most anybody. I would just like some idea of who you are.
| |
| − | | |
| − | So...yeah.

"I...am completely making this up off the top of my head, I'll try and keep it short.
I look back at the 9 weeks I spent at CTY-3 years-and think of all the things I haven't done, and will never have the opportunity to do again. I've never had an ISO. Ive never dropped my tray and let people clap. I've never hooked up with anyone. I never got on a frisbee team. I still can't throw a forehand.
