So it's been more than two years since I went with a leadership group to Washington DC and made the best friends one could ever find.
And now I've not kept wonderful contact with these people.
And now, I've found several of them on MySpace.
And now, I want to contact them, but am totally clueless as to do it.
BECAUSE I don't want to seem desperate to talk to them, AND I don't want to sound like I was stalking them, which is kind of what I did.
So now I don't even know if I should contact them at all.

Just say;
"Hey, wow, it's been a while since we last spoke. How have you been?"
And see where it goes from there. That's how I'd do it. Or you could say;
"OMG I LIEK TOTALLY FOUND YOU AGEN. How awesome is this? You were liek, so cool. I can't believe your name isn't Jo. I mean, if it were, I'd be all liek, whoooaaaaaaaaaaaaaa totally strange."
Or, you could just try the first one. OR; (and this one is good).
"WASSUP MA HOUSIE?! Does ye remember me from good ole DC? Nay, well you SHOULD. For I am the Uber Loodle Sporken (that's Lauren to you, mortals.) I mean, nice hat!"
Yeah, I'd go with the first one...

I'm really digging that last one, but I think I might tweak the first one to make it work =P
But I'm really wondering how to explain how I found them. Like, I literally typed in their name on MySpace to find them.
Stalker much?

Ha, that doesn't matter. Isn't that the whole idea behind social networking? They made the profiles, anyway. Just say, "Hey, ___, it's Lauren, from that trip to DC. I was remembering what an awesome time we had, and I thought I'd try to get in touch with you guy(s)." If they proceed to ask how you found them, just tell them - I searched your name on MySpace. It sounds like a perfectly common sense thing to do, really.  If I was searching for someone/something, I'd Google them. *shrug* |

I recently met someone new from a community service thing too, and I also searched them up on el Space and found them, but I basically just added them and didn't bother to communicate so I can't help. xD
(excuse the run-on)

Yes I did. =P
But that what I call my friend from DC.
And they know that.
She accepted me, and didn't tell me to go play in traffic.
So nowwwww. I have to work on:
a) the fat kid who made me giggle.
b) the kid I had a crush on.
c) the super hot kid.
Haha.

I have name for all my categories of friends. XD
Like I have my three besties.
I have my friends.
I have my buddies, which usually have adjectives in front of them. Like my Booking It From Algebra Buddy, My Popsicle Buddy, My Art Buddy, My Health Buddy, etc.
I have my peeps from DC.
And my pals, which consists of all my neofriends and penpals.

AM I A PAL?!?!!!
Pal is better than being a "peep" or "buddy" -nodnod-
xDDD
I don't have a lot of friends, so everyone is my friend o.0 I have "online friends", hehe. I think I have more online friends than I do real life friends. How sad is that. And one of my online friends knows stuff about me that not ever my sister does. And were pretty close-ish.... xDD It's easier to talk to someone when you can't see their actual facial reactions...

You are a pal. =P
With you being a pal, If I was ever reminded of something you said during a real life conversation, I could say, my penpal Jo, and not look like a freak.
I do end up telling many of my secrets to one of my penpals...we share dirt about other people without the fear of it getting back to them. And we can rant and complain all we want to each other. XD
But as of recently I've also been able to do that to real life people. Which is pretty cool actually. ^^

I'm generally like a Magic Eight Ball with people. I either like them or I don't. And every once in a while, I have no comment. All you foreigners (and/or clueless Americans): en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_8-BallPersonally, I think you guys would probably be a "Without a doubt" (: |
