"Weep not sweet queen, for trickling tears are vain..."

I'm leaving tomorrow at 7:00 a.m. for Muhlenberg College. I am very very excited & also scared shitless. I can't believe I'm going. Tomorrow. As of tomorrow I am going to be more in charge of my life than I ever have been. I hope I'm ready.
Like I said, along with being scared out of my five sentances (that was a Shakespeare joke, non-MWOWs), I am really excited and cannot wait. The car is mostly packed, although I technically do have a lot of stuff I still need to do. However, emailing people & writing on LJ was on the list of things to do.

Camp was awesome. I don't really know how to describe it, other than it was truly emotional, meaningful, informative, incredible, and amazing. Not to mention wonderful. Did I say I enjoyed it?
I have not cried as much as I did on the last day in a long time. I was in Henry IV part 1 with Greg Phelps as my wonderful director, and Rick Blunt & Lara Wagner as my wonderful assistant directors/co-actors. I played Thomas Percy, the Earl of Worcester (Hotspur's malevolent uncle), Mistress Quickly (the hostess of the tavern, 'a most sweet wench'), and 1st Traveller ("Jesus bless us!"). I have never formed a bond with a cast quite like I did with this one. We were all so close, and so devoted to our show.
I was also in the dance pre-show, which was terribly fun. We did the evolution of dance to Billie Jean, performed beautifully by our musical group, The Sparklebunnies.
There is so much more I could say about camp, but I think I might cry if I try and write about it all. Not to mention that some people probably wouldn't find it very interesting. I desperately hope I can come back as a counselor. That would be so wonderful. Not as great as coming back as a camper, but those days are over. So, future YCTC campers, cross your fingers for me that I get accepted.

I don't know how great I will be at LJ-ing from school, but I will try. Feel free to email or write or facebook, etc.

I love you all!
