Hi Liang! That's so cool you're from China and into music and sports too, just like me! What are you doing during the rest of summer?

Hello Liang!! Welcome to the message boards!! lol... I understand how it must feel to be 17 and a sophomore in high school...some of my cousins just recently came to the US too and they've gotten put back a year because the systems were so different...but anyways, I'm from India, but I was born in the US (not that it makes any difference, I'm very cultural!), so I'm glad this forum is going to be diverse!! anyways, looking forward to more people on the message boards -- the more new people who come the more excited I get!!

Hello Jen! Well, for the summer, I'm most likely stay at ID, because I will have a driver's training star at June 6, ends up at July 13, and after that, you know, we will go to DC for the Forum, so I will probably spend all the summer on study, car training, trip............ Yeah, that's my plan (I guess )!

So, Arina, I come from China, and you come from India (I mean originally), I guess we both have something in common don't you think?

Hi everyone!! I'm Loretta. I live in Potomac, Maryland. I'm 16 and I'm a sophmore. I basically like a lot of things like, playing sports, reading, listening to music and stuff, and I play the piano and the violin (both of which I'm not really good at... hehheh )
I can't wait for school to finally end so that summer vacation can start!!

hey Loretta! I can't wait for school to get out either. I have less than 2 weeks left. yeah! The trip is getting close and I am excited to meet new people. Should be fun.
Just wondering if there was anybody else out there from the west coast going to D.C. If so e-mail me @ acting411@yahoo.com

Hey Loretta!! omg! you live in Potomac, MD?! I live in Rockville!! yay! someone really close by me...so what school do you go to?? I go to RM (Richard Montgomery)...I'm a sophomore too...coool!! i'm excited!!

Liang!! yay! We have something in common! Maybe we can talk about our countries and even if you want, we can share food from our countries!!

Hey Loretta! I play piano too! I am so ready for school to be over.. I have 2 more days and tomorrow is my 2 hardest exams. Summer will go by so fast and in no time we'll be at the forum! It'll be so fun meeting everyone from other states, even countries! I'll have to talk more when exams are over and then I'll be a happy camper. I'll talk to everyone later!

Hey guys! I'm really excited about the forum this year..not too sure what we're getting into, but I'm sure we're going to have a blast! I'm 17 (about to be a senior- yay!) from TN. I'm into swimming, track, choir, and of course partying I would love to meet you all-- sn is Blondiecc004586 and email same @comcast.net. Does anyone know what the first day is like? Is anyone flying to Dulles?

hey Jen!! good luck on finals!!
lol...Christy you like to party too?? lol...seems like the final dinner/dance is gonna be a lot of fun!! w/ppl who like to party you can never go wrong ...can't wait!!

Hey Christy! I'm glad more juniors (soon to be seniors) are coming. No offense to the others though. I guess they are arranging us by last names. So maybe if we say what our last name is, we can get a pretty good idea as to who is rooming with who.

I agree...okay I'll start I guess (actually we started doing this but got side tracked) okay my last name is KADAM

Mine is Llewellyn. It may look weird and difficult to pronounce, but it's not that bad. It's pronounced lu-well-lin. There's a good chance that we could be roomies Arina!

hey thats true!...we very well could be rooming together!! that'd be cool because then I'd already know you or have 'talked' to you...

Hey! My name is Karen Roque and I'm also attending the forum this summer! I like to play sports and I play the piano. I'm not good at them, but I still like them I live in Raleigh, NC, but I'm originally from El Salvador. I also used to live in Rockville, MD and I was going to go to Richard Montgomery High School, but I moved to NC. It's going to be so great meeting all of you!!! I'm so excited! My aim is karen roque88 so IM me so we can chat!! laters

i forgot to mention, i'm a sonn to be junior and i'm 16 yrs old!

Girls...Have you found a dress for the dance/party the last night? I found a cocktail dress a few days ago, but I'm not totally sure if it's going to work!

On a completely different subject, what got all of you guys interested in med?

Hey Karen! I'm Jen from Raleigh too! What school do you go to? I go to Cardinal Gibbons and am a rising senior. I don't think I've said hi to Christy yet either..hi Christy! I have no idea what I'm wearing to the forum, and won't have a chance to shop until the beginning of July. I've always been interested in medicine..i can't see myself becoming anything else. Also I think it would be really cool to earn the title of "doctor", and of course, help people too

Hey Jen! I go to Broughton High...I want to be a doctor too..I'm so excited!!

The dress that we have to wear for the last night, does it have to have sleeves, or can it be sleeveless or a halter?
