hey, got placed in camp wildwood ranch, anyone else?

Hey there, me too!!! I posted something on the forums ages ago now and havn't found anyone else going to wildwood yet! getting pretty excited now it's getting close,

Yaay i found somone i thought i would be all alone lol, when you flying out thomas?

aha yeah I thought I'd be alone too!! apparently there are only 6 of us international workers going! I'm flying out on June 5th, how about you?

oh thats abit earlier than me, i fly out the 12th of june, thats abit strange wouldn't they want us two and the other internationals to come at the same time

where you from btw,? i live in london

I'm from Norwich, just about a 2 hour train journey from London, yeah I think i'm going early because I'm going to be the craft director and they said they needed to kind of teach me what kind of art and craft activities they do there. have you been to the orientation yet?

oh ok norwich that where the university of east Anglia is right, my mate goes there, art and craft wow maybe you can teach me aswell. ive been to the first orientation in london have you not gone yet? it was really long lol. do you have facebook

yeah that's right, I havn't been to orientation yet, i'm going to the may 21st one I think because I couldn't make the recent ones. i'll do my best to get you drawing and painting! lol where abouts in London are you from? i know a few people dotted around London in different places. have you done camp america or anything like it before? I havn't getting pretty excited now !!

by the way, yeah I have facebook its http://www.facebook.com/thomaselden

at least i think that should direct you to my page

yaay im gonna be a artist when i leave camp lol, im from east london like around canning town if you know where that is, nah i havent done camp america before im soooo scared like bit nervous dont know what to expect really wish i could have your excitement right now, if i love it that much i may consider doing another year, have you done this before?

no, i've never done anything like it, i'm excited, but also nervous at the same time, the camp seems really nice from what I've read and everyone I've met and heard from at camp america so far have been friendly and helpful, so i'm sure we'll be fine

actually i just realised something i have done something kind of like this but only in the way i went a different, i went to ghana africa to work in a orhange and at medical outreaches but that was for 3 weeks this is for 9 weeks thats a really long time its kicking in now lol, where did you read information about the camp from? yeah i guess we will be fine

oh wow, a couple of my friends did something like that, i'd love to get involved with something like that at some point in the future. To be honest I can't remember where I read it form, just after I found out I was placed at Wildwood I kind of googled everything I could about the camp to see if there was any information about it and I found a few pages about it. Yeah it's going to be a long time, I still havn't put my return date down yet because I probably want to stay after the placement is finished for as long as my visa allows so I can do some travelling after, what date do you think you're returning?

i planned to stay with my uncle and cousins in connectcuit after camp finishes but i do what to stay in California for like maybe 3 days and just look around but i dont know how this is all gonna work cause where would i stay in the 3 days there. also i did the DIY flight from new york but i dont know how thats gonna work either, do you have any family in america i plan come back like the last week of august beginning or september

oh right, nah I don't have any family or anything over in America I was just going to stay for an extra month and see how it goes really, try to do some travelling around california afterwards, hopefully it won't bee too expensive though. I'm going to think about it because we have a month or so until we have to say when we're returning.
