that was an amazing conference i must say. i dont even know where to start, just purely amazing wonderful awesomeness. i grew to love so many people, but most importantly the 10 incredible people from "its in my diaper & its not a toaster". emma, stan, ryan, shayla, kim, kelly, scott, sarah, alix, & of course devon. these people made me love my life so much more. by the end of the four days we did really become a family, i love each & everyone of them so much. when reading my i love you becauses i almost cried a lot of times & i actually did cry a bit at one point, i miss it so much already. but i am so thankful to stan & emma who welcomed me into their group as a third skillbuilder & made it become our group. in the talent show, i believe her name was heather (she sang freshmen), she had me at a loss for words. & ian arbuckle well his rendition of one by u2 was absolutely breath taking. now i had to watch all of this all alone. i have know idea where my friends were even though i spent a good 30min looking for them, with 4 acts left i found them, & it was great. but i appreciate being able to experience the talents of other people on my own, that way i dont have other peoples influences telling me how it was. i was hypnotized... which i somewhat remember, but dont really understand. i remember being really confused & not being able to control my actions, i really remember quite well trying to get out of the mind control, then falling back under it. jeff & paul, amazing, i love them. they are such real people, ive known them since i was about 10 so i can say that & actually mean it. i didnt get to go to coast. but i loved both smash & remix a lot. there is a huge differnce between being a delegat & a skillbuilder, you cant even compare them. but i feel almost as if i learned more from being a skillbuilder than from being a delegate. remix 2004 is the best conference ive ever experienced, & i thank everyone that made it happen, & everyone that was there.
