Hey TYWLS explorers! Today Brooklyn and Astoria campers were together :) IT WAS ALOT OF FUN! Today we danced to different types of music with Andrea. I enjoyed watching different dance moves from other people that you really don’t know or hang out with. From Astoria we had 2 voulenteers that taught us a dance or a dance move. :) Today was a lot of fun!

Today is July 26th, 2012

My Impact i am not to young to make one!

Hey explorers remember our theme ?

Well what is an impact that you think you made on others? Mine is when we wrote the letters to Stella. I think when Stella gets the love letters and see how much we care she would really appreciate it and she would be a happier

Sincerely,

Hey TYWLS explorers, remember our theme #MyImpact, I’m not to young to make one? Well what is an impact you made on others? One impact I made was writing letters to Stella who has been going through rough things and rough times. I think that it was really nice by writing love letters to Stella. I think that Stella will be a much happier person after reading our letters. <3 <3 What did you make an impact on?

Message to my Past Self

Wed, 25 Jul 2012 16:26:56 -0400

Dear Aldina,

During the week, I wish I knew many things that I know now. One thing I wish I knew was to ice-skate. But, yesterday (July 24, 2012) I learned a little bit but still, that counts. I am hoping that I learn how to balance and how to ice-skate without falling. Also today, I wish I knew how to make the beads tighter, but I kept practicing and practice makes perfect

Sincerly,

Aldina Feratovic

A Note to My Younger Self -Neah in #Brooklyn

Tue, 24 Jul 2012 16:34:11 -0400

Hey Neah,

Soon you will ;earn to control your anger. You have the power to your own happiness, the words that people say mean nothing. Right now, you may be the little rude red-faced girl and maybe always will be to some people, but you are a tall beautiful girl with red cheeks. Not an angry girl with a temper.

KNOW YOUR WORTH, because soon you will be some-body!

As a 15-year-old with the world at your fingertips. You will be the strongest Youth Court member! So, keep your head up because you don’t know what may come next!

-Neah
