Greetings from New Jersey!

[tsimons]

Hello everyone!

This is my first post on this board and I'm a little intimidated, to say the least. Yes, I am a virgin burner as is my boyfriend. My cousin has been to Burning Man the past two years and has described the experience as "indescribable". Needless to say, I was intrigued. I have read over the Survival Guide but am still a little nervous (I worry and tend to over plan, I can't wait to get to the playa to relax, enjoy, and experience!). My boyfriend and I are looking for a camp to join, as well as any tips from returning burners.

So, I hope to hear from everyone soon! Have a great night and see you on the playa!

Welcopme to eplaya.

Hi Tiffany! Planners do great on the playa, provided they can bend without breaking. I'm a worrier and a planner, too. But yeah, once I get there, it's easier to let go.

Keep reading ePlaya, and while doing so, I recommend skipping our "Search" function in favor of googling a keyword + eplaya, for example:

goggles eplaya or
contact lenses eplaya or
house rules for RVs eplaya

That's usually enough to get some handy results, but you can also narrow it to the site itself by clicking More results from eplaya.burningman.com » first.

We see a lot of the same questions every year, but people tend to be nicer about answering them if we can tell you've searched first. It means you're more likely to take care of yourself out there too, and be a good neighbor.

Welcome . . .

Welcome to the fun Tiffany! I kind of wish I was more of a planner. I am a virgin burner as well and have learned a lot of great things from this site.


Savannah,
Great tip on searching for things on eplaya. I wouldn't have ever thought of that.

Hey there, welcome to eplaya!

[tsimons]

Thank you all for the warm welcome and the tips! I've started to collect costume pieces and supplies and it's getting really exciting! Meet you on the playa!

Remember, you dont' have to join a theme camp to have a good burn.

I got mugged in New Brunswick once and ended up in Middlesex County Hospital. I hope you're not from there.

i dont know who you are anymore.

[H.G.Crosby]

oh leave him alone...they upped the voltage on his EST.

[theCryptofishist]

That's alright. In my heart I'll always know that Simon thought something that was so snarky he couldn't let it cross state lines without involving DOT.

[Simon of the Playa]

yes, it might have involved elliot spitzer, you are correct.

[tsimons]

Remember, you dont' have to join a theme camp to have a good burn.

Oh, I know. Just thought it might be a good idea for the first time. Gives me a way to be social right off the bat. =)

Nope, I'm from Vineland.



It's in that area that's brown at the bottom labeled "Pretty Much Alabama". Meh. I wouldn't mug you! =)

Thank you! Glad I'm not alone!

I'm a girl, Simons is my last name, I'll forgive you.... this time!

Fixed it.

[Simon of the Playa]

by posting that totally accurate map of the state of New Jersey you have already warmed the cockles of my cold cold New York heart.

[Drawingablank]

The reason so many New Yorkers are always so pissed off is because the light at the end of their tunnel is New Jersey.

That map is great though.

Haha, that was my mistake then. I didn't even realize. Thanks though!

It is very, very accurate.

Hahaha, well, the tunnel leads you to a terrible, terrible part of the state. Blergh.

[theCryptofishist]

I thought SofP had a cold stoney New York heart...

[Simon of the Playa]

yes, i do...


since we've managed to work thru the formalities, i think it's high time i asked her to show us her tits, don't you think?

[Roberto Dobbisano]

too soon! too soon!

[theCryptofishist]

Ah yes, that sophisticated New York charm...
