BM 2012 Hopeful from Canada!

Post by Minty » Tue Nov 30, 2010 10:02 pm

So I'm in my first year of university, and discovered this mysterious thing called "Burning Man" whilst ordering flowtoys. I've quickly become obsessed with BM. I've read just about every thread on eplaya. I've read every .pdf I can find on the BM website. I've made notes and quizzed myself on the Survival Guide. I've made three shopping lists based on where I start my journey from. When my days get boring, I think about BURNING MAAAN.

I am OBSESSED!
I figure that given the budget of a university student I'd better start saving now. Anyways, just wanted to say hi and I hope to be trucking on down from Ottawa (or maybe Vancouver) in a year or two!
I'm just a teenage dirtbag.

Hey there, welcome to eplaya!

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle.
Then I realized that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me

Wait! I thought 2012 was supposed to be the END OF THE WORLD according to the Mayan calendar! :shock: (Or is that the theme of BM2012? I get those things mixed up...)
