Memverse Meeting & National Bible Bee

Oh. My. I won't ever forget that! So much fun. XD

The Memverse meeting was the most fun I'd had in a long time! You guys are great. Loved the whole dodging the camera people thing. XD

That was too funny! XD

You should have seen JJ, trying to hide behind me like a human shield; and then Zach trying to hide behind JJ. XD
And I can only imagine how funny it must have looked to passersby, watching a bunch of us make our way around the pillar, trying to avoid the camera people. Lol

I still can't believe I got cornered and interviewed xP

Ikr? Haha!

Ah. I still wish you had come though. :) Btw, I'm so sorry it didn't work out for us to do evangelizing on Sunday. :( We had to check out of the hotel early, so Saturday night was our last time there.

Ikr? Haha!

Well they started interviewing Matthew/Ian and I thought "okay this is fine" but when they swung the camera over to Katrina and me, I wanted to run away xP lol…I don't mind getting pictures but I hate getting videoed!

I still can't believe I got deserted!!! :P

wow… does sound fun! :)

I still can't believe I got deserted!!! :P

That was hilarious! XD ^sorry!^ :P

Yeah, I know…y'all were laughing at me! :P facedesk

feels so left out What is it about interview at Memverse get together?

Some camera people for the gameshow came along and were interviewing people. They interviewed Matthew, Ian, Rachel and some others. Then they interviewed me and Emily and Noah and maybe others…I didn't stick around to see. :P

A bunch of us were talking and then we saw them coming up so most of us dodged them and stuff. They interviewed some people and then they turned the camera on me and everybody I was talking to deserted me. I started saying I didn't want to be interviewed but then I didn't want to make them feel disappointed so I agreed and then I pulled Emily in (cause she deserted me!) and they interviewed us both. Everybody standing around (people from MV) started laughing cause they knew I didn't want to be on camera. facepalm

Aw! I would have liked to have been there… I would face any inerview! though I'm positive they wouldn't have if I had been there. :)

I proved at Nationals once and for all how impossible it is for me to talk on camera…

You're braver than I am… :P

Well, I literally started _crying_. And I'm not kidding. So there. :P

_Crying?!_ Why? lol No, I didn't cry, but I did say the wrong thing :P lol

The pressure was too much. The camera focused right on me, everybody expecting me to talk like any normal person would, the interview being completely out in the open… I suddenly couldn't talk even when I tried, and something snapped. It was humiliating… :-/

Why would you be desperate?

I would do anything to go to Nationals!!!

Did you ever say anything to me at Nationals? lol…trying to remember

hey man, its OK, I probably would have started crying too! :) here, to make you feel better:
once, I was doing a play, and my extremely judgmental family member was there, so I started crying right in front of everyone! I completely understand!:)

I'm the same way…my words come out as a jumble and I make no sense… If I'm going to make sense I need to having it memorized or a lot of time to think about things.

Maybe I did, but I sure didn't say anything like a normal person. :P That's why it was so hard during the interview–they expected me to talk like anybody would on camera. But I can't do that.

Thanks. :) So I'm not alone. xP

Exactly. And it's so much easier to organize your thoughts when you don't have the pressure of having to answer immediately. But not even you cried when you were interviewed. :P

The most I heard you talk was in orals…lol :D You did really good! :D
Yeah…I know what you mean (sort of :P )

Yeup! Totally agree! True, I didn't… But don't feel bad about it! ;)

BTW, Check out my post on divorce and remarriage. :)

I know right?!?! Well, I had an excuse, so :P

It's kinda hard not to feel bad (or at least majorly embarrassed) about crying in front of a bunch of your friends, but okay. :P

Ah, I hadn't checked the TD's yet. Will do that now. :)

Yeah…I've done the same thing but just don't worry about it. ;)

Mmkay. :)

They actually didn't interview me, but I don't think I would have minded. I'm probably the only who thought that way. :P

"Oh sure! We'll just entirely erase from our minds the fact that you are standing there taping us for who-knows-who to see later, and keep on doing exactly what we were doing ten seconds ago!"

Like….totally CANNOT happen XD

I still can't believe I got deserted!!! :P

^Sorry, sorry, sorry!!! xP^

I can tell you, the main reason I got out of there was because my mom had gone somewhere, and I didn't realize at first that they were BB people, so I was like "Uh, no way I'm gonna do this especially without permission!!!" xP
