Sorry I was gone so long, I was at camp. It's an awesome christian camp called Camp Manatawny.

So much stuff happened there, that includes me crying uncontrollably, meeting new friends, and getting baptised!

My new friends include Liz, she's such a sweetheart, Nick, he's kinda quiet when you first meet him, Brandon, he's such a nice guy and him and Liz like eachother, Mia, everything touches her heart, she's also a sweetheart, and last, but is most certianly at the top of my list of new friends, Richard.

I met Rich through my friend Caleb when we went on the creek walk. I didn't know his name at first, but we got along well. Actually, the first time I talked to him I screamed something like "Wait! Don't throw the seaweed yet! I'm not ready!" Of course, he through it at me and it hit me in the face, lol. After the creek walk, we were together all the time. I call him Fred most of the time because he tried to trick my friend into thinking that was his real name. He lectured me when I couldn't call him Fred with a straight face. He's one of the nicest guys I know, even though he can be somewhat of a bummer sometimes, lol. I don't know what kind of past he has either, but I want to get closer to him so I can help him through anything that comes his way.

Now, I know what you're thinking, "ZOMIGOSH Rein-chan has a crush!!" And you're dead right. I do like him. But that doesn't change the face that he lives in a different state and likes another girl, lol. But, I'm more than happy to be his friend.
