Hey girlie! I have the same problem. I might not be as brave as you, but i would not have gone, and went to a really cool dance day camp. I am sorry that you might not want to hear this, but i also say go for it if you are comfortable!
by Miranda999 on 7/24/2009 12:30:41 AM
You should def take it! I went to Europe for a month and we could only call home 3 times! Go, but take a comfort item, like your mom's pillow or your dad's socks. Sounds weird, but it helps a ton! HAVE FUN

go for it! you won't get an opportunity like this again! if you're homesick, keep thinking about the reason you came and dedicate your every move for your family back home. they want you to succeed!!

i'm going to camp this summer (though, it's a car drive away, and it's in the woods, and it's only a week)
by popmusic on 6/12/2009 5:20:19 PM
I think you should go. It really is the chance of a lifetime!! If you are going to miss your parents or get homesick then bring pictures of things that you love back at home. Like pictures of pets, your room, your family stuff taht makes you happy.

You will have a great time. I have been going to sleep away camp for like 6 years and I have been the new person twice. All you have to do is be yourself and you will make friends. As for the end of camp way to go! you get to dance with a European Pop Star!

3 words- go for it!!!
by kgirlpanda on 6/9/2009 5:55:26 PM
Yeah, my friends and I... we aren't too into sleep away camps so we don't really have to worry about that stuff, but what I think stinks most abut your sit. is that your parents are letting you go ON THE FACT THAT YOU'RE NOT GOING TO CALL HOME CRYING ET CETERA. That really stinks. My parents would just encourage me to go and allow me to call home... not because was scared but because I just wanted to check in at home and say 'hey', you know???
by musicsquirt98 on 6/9/2009 4:31:30 PM
I LLLLLOOOOOOVVVVEEEEE dancing but I don't think my 'rents can pull off the cash to go to any expensive camp. I'm gonna' try out a local cheerleading camp tho...<33
by LJSOCCER12 on 6/9/2009 4:05:58 PM
i have a great idea that used to help me with homesickness. ask your mom to write you a short letter for each day of the week that you are gone. at night, open that days letter, and remember your parents wishes for you to stay calm. when you feel homesick, listen to music or even open up to new friends. maybe even BRING a fellow dancer to camp! im sure once the camp is in full swing youll be having so much fun that youll forget your homesickness. xoxo, advice_chica please leave any questions or advice that you need on my profile and ill answer asap. i KNOW ill be able to help
by advice_chica on 6/9/2009 2:07:52 PM
TIPS FOR HOMESICKNESS: ~Always-ALWAYS-bring something, like an old blanket, sweater, or stuffed animal that smells like home. ~Make sure you have e-mail addresses and phone numbers of your friends and family from home. ~Don't be shy! It never hurt anybody to make a few new friends.
by hyperpuppy on 6/9/2009 3:40:16 AM
-_-...im seriously jelouse of u ive been danceing scince befor i could walk litteraly.and i never got a chance like that.i went to new york and if i ever get that chance again im going to cry of happiness.is that enough reason to go for u?

This summer I get to go to a mizzou softball camp. The proplem is its 5 hours away and my bestfriend cant come anymore. Im so nervous cuz i wont know any one and ill have to share a dorm with some other girl and im a afraid she will be mean. I know it's awesome i get to go but i have never been that far away from my parents that long.Im also VERY shy so ill take any advice about how to be able to make friends or about how to stop being nervous about camp. Thanx
by ashhagan104 on 6/8/2009 11:16:00 PM
ya girl. don't freak. just focus on having fun. i mean, your so lucky your rents are letting you go 2 a 2 week camp and dance with a european singer!!!!!! just try and keep your mind totally distracted and focus on nothing but dancing and that european singer. trust me, if you get really home sick, bringing like a picture of your fam or brining anything that reminds you of home can freak you out. and dont call home!!!!! that will make you want 2 come back even more. like, i once went 2 this camp and they didnt allow cell fones (-_- but seriously, wat camp does? thats wats NOT fun about them) so i couldnt talk 2 my bf but i brought a picture of him and that just made me miss him a LOT more if i couldnt txt him. but luckily, i had some of my friends go 2 camp with me and made some new ones so they helped me stay preoccupied by like just talking about random things and having fun!! oh, and i would bring a book with you 2 read a nite because thats when your most prone 2 get homesick-ness. and try and dream happy dreams!!! lolz just live in the moment and i hope you have a blast!!!! xoxoxoxoxo C.H.E.C.K. O.U.T. M.Y. P.R.O.F.I.L.E.!!!!!!
by OMGitsMILLI on 6/8/2009 11:12:59 PM
That's definitely an opportunity you don't want to miss! Your fellow campers will most likely be just as homesick as you, so I'm sure they can relate. But once you think about how amazing it's going to be, you can quell your anxiety and replace it with excitement! You'll do great, and once you get back home, your family will be so proud of you, it'll be worth it leaving for two weeks. Have fun!!!

by NeedAdvice? on 6/8/2009 8:05:30 PM
I know how u feel every year i go to a sleep away camp for a week and I really miss my home! The best way to get over ur homesick is to next time u go away w/out ur rents try and hang out with the people around u it might help take the pain away!! It worked for me!!
by giggleshayes814 on 6/8/2009 7:36:18 PM
That's OK, everyone gets homesick! I remember my class went to a week-long science camp for a field trip. I was really afraid of being homesick too! I did get a little homesick sometimes, but camp was definitely a BLAST and I loved it! If you start to get homesick, try calling your parents, siblings or friends and just talking for a while. Try decorating your surroundings (like your room, dorm or bunk) with pictures, posters, and happy things. Also, try making friends with some girls in your camp. Just having friends there will make you feel so much better. Focus on how amazing this opportunity is, and try having the most fun you can! Soon, you'll be home, sharing all your fabulous new stories with your family, and maybe even being campsick! I know you can do it girlie!
by ShopperSoccerGurl on 6/8/2009 7:13:05 PM
I had this exact same problem so this is what I did: -ask your parents to make several"homesick notes"each these are little notes that they wrote that you can read when you are homesick -when ever you get homesick remember this: you are blowing things out of proportion: you will see them in 2 weeks and you will see them for the rest of your life, but you only get to go to this camp once. Also, my profile is being checked, but once it is public you can comment on my profile anytime at camp if you just want to talk to someone! Please tell me how camp goes! Good Luck- You go girl! ALSO TO EVERYONE I LOVE OT GIVE ADVICE PLEASE LEAVE A PROBLEM COMMENT ON MY PROFILE FOR ADVICE!
