Hi, my name is Phong. On a larf, I put my name in the hat for tickets with no expectations other than that if I scored tickets, I'd find a way to not just show up, but to participate as well.
I'm going through a period of rediscovering my creative side after many years in the trenches as a black and white, purely analytical engineer.
I'm really looking forward to letting loose and meeting creative people who have had the courage to be themselves all their lives. I'm looking to fully allow the burn to consume me and reduce me to ashes so that I may re-emerge as something else.

Re: Excited to Discover Myself
Hi CowTipper!
I daresay you will see some fascinating things, possibly be inspired in some kind of way, and yeah--meet some really amazingly creative people (for sure, that part). The Burn might not remake you, consume you, reduce you to ashes, for sure though--so maybe let go of that to prevent disappointment. Although--perhaps that's just some dormant creativity beginning to ooze through your pores already . . .
Not knowing what your Burn will be is part of the fun. Let go of your expectations, read the guides linked below, prepare your face off, and we'll see you on the playa.

hi Savannah, thanks for the tip! I've read that disappointment comes from expectations. So i'm definitely ready to let loose and see what happens!

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
