Hey there, welcome to eplaya!

How do you pronounce your user name?

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

Jesus f2m0u$72391, besides having a handle which is completely useless in an inter-active forum, could you be just a little bit more vague about what you want? You want help? How about: get a clue. Have a real name. Put something, ANYTHING, in your profile that tells us anything about who (or what) you are. No offense, but you may have posted the most useless thread in ePlaya history, and that's saying something.

haha yall love to dish the shit...suppose you need a thick skin and a sense of humor for the playa...haha



I am also a first timer from cali but going to grad school in reno....like they recommended...do your reading, make a google doc for your group, start getting stuff off of craigs, plan your camp, have meeting on a regular basis coving various topics over a few beers and some of that cali greenery...talk with people...the more specific your questions and the better you approach them the more they will be willing to help...if you would like a copy of my google doc lemme know...keep in mind there are 5-7 of us and we are going all out...I'm glad I started it now because I just joined a lab...so the next few years are going to be crazy...I recommend a regional event just to familiarize yourself with the culture...I went to lupin in los gatos last year...hell of a time...beautiful entities
