Hi! I'm a flying squirrel. I often go on RealCTY editing sprees. (If I accidentally delete important stuff please revert my edits thanks!) I have amazing luck when it comes to who I make friends with, but terrible luck when it comes to where they live. As in all of them live on the opposite side of an entire country from me and are never free on the rare occasions that I'm in their city because they're too busy killing themselves with an insane amount of AP coursework and extracurriculars and also probably hate me *hack cough* [[User:LostInSpace|Amelia]] *hack cough* (JK you're amazing I love you don't forget about meeee) (I also have another friend in Montana but my parents won't go there because they say there's nothing to do (which they might be true about) and I'm sad.)

Hi! I'm a flying squirrel. I often go on RealCTY editing sprees. (If I accidentally delete important stuff please revert my edits thanks!) I have amazing luck when it comes to who I make friends with, but terrible luck when it comes to where they live. As in all of them live on the opposite side of an entire country from me and are never free on the rare occasions that I'm in their city because they're too busy killing themselves with an insane amount of AP coursework and extracurriculars and also probably hate me *hack cough* Amelia *hack cough* (JK you're amazing I love you don't forget about meeee). I also have another friend in Montana but my parents won't go there because they say there's nothing to do (which they might be right about) and I'm sad.

I can...sort of rave? And teach people? Still no guarantees that I won't accidentally hit you (or myself) in the face with a glow stick. You have been warned :)
EDIT: It appears that I can teach a butterfly pretty well in about 3 minutes (as long as you don't have the weird handles because I can't do a butterfly too well on those) so if you're interested hmu I'm one of those crazy people with the spinning lightbulbs (aka poi. Please don't call them spinning lightbulbs. That would cause me pain). If you want to learn anything else, go to Amelia and Lena if they aren't already occupied because they're freaking amazing rave goddesses and can teach you literally anything they know.

I was on a Science Olympiad team in 2018 and 2019. Link to my Scioly wiki user page

One of my friends who's never been to CTY "hypothesize[s] that it’s a magical place where smart people go to escape the usual bunch of idiots we call society." Accurate.

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

The following is mostly so I don't forget the names of hallmates, RAs, instructors, etc:

Sites and Sessions

LOS 15.1

Course: Examining the Evidence

Instructor: Elicia

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

Residence Hall: Huesman

Firsts:

  • First CTY
  • First experience with a university cafeteria / dining hall. I discovered soda machines. That was a mistake.

This was overall a not-great session but it was enough to make me want to come back, so it probably wasn't as bad as I remember. I still don't know how to feel about this one.

PAL 16.1

Course: The Renaissance

Instructor: Kurt

TA: Zach

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

RA: Dara

Residence Hall: Roble (Pronounced "Robe-lee")

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. End of story.

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!"

My hall ignored me this session and I was sad. But I still had friends. They were just on the other side of Roble and I only found them in the second week. Yay me.

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

Unofficial Hallmates / The Hugalujahs: Sophie, Elise, Katherine, Judy, Alma, Julieta, and Dani. Sofi's hall came up with the name; it's a combination of "hug" and "Hallelujah." They hugged each other a lot and sang Hallelujah in the hallway a lot. I was adopted into this hall mainly because Katherine was my roommate.

Official RA: Genesis

Unofficial RA: Sofi

Residence Hall: Campion, floor 5

Firsts:

  • First regular CTY
  • First performance in a CTY talent show, or any at all for that matter
  • First ISO
  • First time braving the center of the room in American Pie. This was at the last dance.

My instructor was feared by many. He looked threatening, sounded threatening, and acted threatening. For some reason, we all managed to overlook this and we (mostly) thought he was awesome. Then again this could just be me. Maybe everyone else hated him. The world may never know.

My unofficial hall and RA were the only reason why I enjoyed this session and I like, love, and CTY them all to death. Case closed.

Notable quotes:

  • "The wall makes electricity!"
  • "Holy CRAP there are HOLES in this Frisbee!"
  • "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"
  • "Are YOU in a GOOD MOOD?"
  • "BRING ON THE ROASTED POTATOES!"
  • "Where's Sofi?" (repeated many, many times)
  • "OXYTOCIN!!!" *gives nearest person a hug* (yes we were weird I know)
  • "Isaac! Step away from the vending machine!"
  • "How did the equations get on the board?" "I snuck in here and wrote them. I’m a ninja" "Don’t ninjas have to wear all black?" *gestures at black shirt, pants, and cardigan*

JHU 18.2
