okay, this may sound kinda loserish, but this school yeah i made A LOT of new friends, and i became closer with my friends. me and my best friends have plans on fridays every single week, and i talk to my friends basically every day. it was my best school year. ever. now schools out, and i go to sleepaway camp for 2 months on friday. i dont want to stop this good year. im on a roll! i think im going to have a hard time at camp for two months. i cant ask this at camp, so ill ask it now. what can i do to make it feel like theyre with me, and make me less homesick. i dont mean writing letters, or bringing pictures to camp. i dont want to hear "youll get into the fun at camp and you wont be as homesick as you think" cause thats wrong. a little creativity would be helpful. ((no bringing food or electrical items to camp)).

My friends and I strated this silly thing when we were going to seperate camps (you copy the idea if you like it); we took a journal and one of us would have it for a week and we would write in it like a diary, including drawings, tips on how to handle things, little codes that we only knew about and pictures of whatever (cute guys that we met, freinds that we made, the camp, counslers). It worked for us. Maybe it'll work for you. [ professionaldreamer's advice column | Ask professionaldreamer A Question ]

Get to know a lot of people, and just become friends with them. Camp with your new friends will fly by- and you'll be home before you know it. Plus, making friends at camp will help with the homesickness, because everyone gets homesick when they go to camp, even if its just for a little while. Being around people who are also homesick will be relieving.
