My bad V. ddnt know. Sry. See this is why they have to inform you what is and most importantly what isnt a space camp word.

No problem...though I will say I've edited more of your posts than anyone elses...and you've only been a member for three days!
The rule of thumb though is this: Think if you were in a crowd of Space Camp kids. Now pretend this forum gets read by those same kids. Feel free to use big words, but watch the four letter words/concepts!

Sorry guys I just thought that you'd blown the PDA thing way out of proportion. Looking back, only twenty or so of the over one hundred posts under "PDA" since we returned are mine. In fact, the person who has talked about it the most seems to be Marcus, who didn't even get any!
Obviously we did much more at ASA. What a waste of time and money it would be to go to space camp just for PDA. I don't need to go all the way to Huntsville for that! It is the experience that space camp offers that brought me their this year and will bring me back next year. I learned alot at ASA just as I did last year. You guys know that I love learning. Even Erin will tell you that I probably bored her to death with my talk of rocket engines. I can't help it... I dream of being an engineer. Erin and I shared much more than just PDA, we shared some great views of the lit orbiter late at night, in serene Rocket Park. We shared our dreams of ascending the launch tower, and the drama of liftoff. Anyone who believes that all I did at camp was PDA, has been misguided and I hope this post helps you understand what ASA was really like for me, and (hopefully), everyone else on team von Braun week 39.

dude ok ill admit most of the post are mine but you have to admit most or some of them are not about pda. anyways i did learn a lot but not what i hoped. i wish that spae camp wouldve touched more on quantum phyiscs, wormhole theor, black hole theory, and such topis that deal with math (reason why i wanted this was to show my skills and totally show my genius in mathematics and hey maybe even prve some of those theories) well any ways i wrote on this topic because it is the most popular and some people will look at. any ways i did have fun and y does it seem everyone (ok maybe just matt) is blaming me i didnt start this topic. me im a math frea so maybe i shouldnt have went to space camp and maybe i should went to a math camp or sumthing. but hey i dont regret it.i met a lot of people like matt erin emily jesse justin scot chris sussan ilia bob jeff connor ashley and othe vb memebers i may have forgotten. I say dont regret what you did only the things you didnt. Its much worse not knowing what couldve been that getting in trouble for what did. I say Carpe Diem (thats seize the day for those who dont know). Take risks. Hakuna Matata (i hope thats how you spell it). I rather live for 1 year and experience everything than 100 and exerience nothing. 4ever MG

...and like it or not this is still a topic devoted to PDA...
I'm trying to start posting to other threads even as hard as it might be to get away from this one

Whats pathetic is this topic has more posts than any other one on the forum. 7 pages worth now.

I just caught myself staring at the pictures of Erin. She's the most beautiful girl in the universe... Oh how I wish I was in Massachusetts. I just told her I love her. I have never said that to a girl before... It's funny how it was so much easier than I thought. God I miss her... life is so unfair.

That's great to hear Jason. I believe that no distance is great enough to get in the way of true love.

Umm... I don't mean to put another spark under the flame of this convo, but, tell me whatcha all think about this one! The last day of my camp, there was a guy in my group who actually got his first French Kiss ever. The guy's goin on 16 at he just now go... err... maybe I should slow up on the insultation of the guy. The girl was pretty cute, so I'll admit he was pretty lucky. But, anyways. What do 'all yall' (Space Camp word) think about that in regards to the lack of enforcement of the PDA rule?
