Do you think you'll get it?[/b][/i] [indent]Green. I cant seem to find anything that suits me better so probably? [/indent] [color=indianred]►[/color] [i][b]Is this your choice to attend? If not, what can we do to accommodate you?[/b][/i] [indent]Not really. I'm just here because my therapist says so.[/indent] [color=indianred]►[/color] [i][b]Any allergies, disabilities, or special circumstances we should be aware of?[/b][/i] [indent]Let's see; oranges, nuts, raw shellfish, dustmites--that's all I can get off the top of my head. Here's my medical file if you want to keep track. [/indent] [color=indianred]►[/color] [i][b]Do you have experience with any winter sports? Would you like lessons?[/b][/i] [indent][i]-Chuckles-[/i] Noooo, I don't think so. [/indent] [color=indianred]►[/color] [i][b]What are you looking forward to?[/b][/i] [indent] I wonder if there's some 'Cabin in the Woods' type of mystery unique to this camp. Has anybody been murdered in one of the rooms? It really would be nice to explore the more vegetative and unpopulated areas within or maybe beyond the camp, if it doesn't get too cold. --Hm? Ah, I suppose meeting people with the prospect of worthwhile companionship would be nice too. [/indent] [color=indianred]►[/color] [i][b]What are you not looking forward to?[/b][/i] [indent]Intense physical activity, and the loss of privacy. [/indent] [color=indianred]►[/color] [i][b]Tell us a little bit about yourself:[/b][/i] [indent]People always get the impression that I'm the antisocial kid who's into some weird stuff if you wanna get high school clique-y about it. Not a hundred percent at least, though I do tend to go overboard with self expression at times. I'd rather not filter out and limit my thoughts and opinions specially on matters that is relevant to me. I can be friendly and have a few attempts at building relationships. No, really. At times I have my setbacks, having some difficulties expressing feelings or grasping at context and just being overall insensitive, that sort of thing. But I make do in a way I could keep up with though at times it can be slow and janky. So, just let me take this opportunity to apologize in advance. What else, oh yeah. I am easily invested on my goals, at the moment I put it all on my writing. I always get the better of my curiosity, Probably too much in fact that I'm having a hard time shutting down my brain. Putting those thoughts into writing helps ease down the mind.

Her dad is a relatively well known producer in Hollywood , and her mom was former Ms.USA. As a child she was mostly left in the care of a guardian and a tutor and was home schooled till she was 10. At 14 she was diagnosed with AS, and have been taking therapy since. Though she grew up alone most of her early childhood life, Val took comfort in books, and movies in her father's collection. The first time she saw Holloween(1978) in VHS, Val developed a morbid curiosity with themes such as gore, death and the supernatural. From there her interest developed and migrated through online means, and as typical teenagers do she indulged herself in online blogs, short stories, fanfics mostly done by herself. Val started going to camp when she was 15, her parents and therapist thought it might do her good. Which at first, she found it dreadful but had grown the familiar routine of camp life. She'd gone to 3 different camps ever since, with Second Horizons being the fourth thinking that the variety would help her take learn different perspectives.
