Oh man, my Japanese camp was filled with those kids. God.
whoa! Hey Kate! Welcome to my little world. It`s mostly people who have known me since I was five. That`s my best friend Jen up there, that little dancing robot, and Christine, who was in my girl scout troop, and Lori who made me cry when I was 11. Just kidding Lori. (she did make me cry.

There`s also Lisa, another best friend from home, she`s Nishtariv. And Caroline, pulse ethereal, who completes the triumvirate of oldest bestest friends ever.
Oh, and then there`s Cyn, my ex-boyfriend`s ex-girlfriend who I stalked on the internet, then became friends with and later made out with. You can read all about the Cyn-finding-out-I-was-stalking-her-then-become-my-friend adventure in the archives.
