1k Intro: SWC March 2025!!

Alright, here goes. Time for me to write my 1k intro for SWC! Hi!! My name is chocolate! I am currently in the amazing action cabin this session of SWC (ACTIONFTW) with Kenzie, Ris, and Ayla. I have participated in SWC on my other account @C_Yee, so this is my first time participating on my camp account, but seventh time participating in SWC. The previous cabins I have been are Fan-Fi November 2022 (inactive camper), Real-Fi July 2023 (also inactive camper), Fairy Tale Academy November 2023 (semi-active camper), Script Theatron March 2024 (active camper), Folklore July 2024 (co-leader) and Sci-Fi November 2024 (active camper). My favorite session was Script Theatron March 2024 because I felt I was actually for one active that session. I feel like other sessions I get all excited about at the beginning and then towards the end I start to get inactive. I also loved this session because our cabin won!

Alright, in terms of hobbies, I absolutely love playing the cello. I have been playing since the summer before 4th grade so that would be 6 years. I am a second chair cellist at my Orchestra and we're getting ready to go on a few day trips together. I'm super excited! What I like about the cello is its resonant sound. I like how it has this beautiful voice higher than the basses, but lower than the violas (:eyes: violas). I like the friendly competition and environment that goes on in an orchestra. I feel like cellos and violas don' t agree with each other. Maybe cellos hate violas. I just think that's what people think of when people hear the word “cello” or “viola.” Maybe the whole reason why I wanted to play the cello is because you get to sit down all the time! Unlike violins and violas who are forced to stand if there are not enough chairs hehe. In addition, to cello, Listening to music is a huge part of my life. I feel that my music taste tends to change A LOT. I used to like Taylor Swift and be a swiftie, but I've come to realize that Taylor Swift is overrated and I decided to change my music style to something much better. My current artists I love are Laufey, BLU EYES, beabadoobee, ROSE and Sabrina Carpenter. I love how these artists give off a Lo-fi vibe and music like laufey and beabadoobee makes such good study music. To add on to ROSE's music, I can't stop listening to “toxic till the end” I'd say this song is probably my favorite out of her album. I think “APT.” is too overrated and I've gotten tired of that song, although occasionally I will still listen to it. omg did I mention I also play guitar? I'm still learning, but on the weekends, I like to pull out my guitar and play songs like “Riptide” by Vance Joy, “No Surprises” by Radiohead, “Romeo and Juliet” by Dire Straits and many more. As you can tell, I am very passionate about music.

Other hobbies include drawing, writing and watching some of my favorite shows. Although, I haven't done much drawing, art in general just calms me down and I'm always open to learning new styles. Recently, I've been trying to learn how to shade, but I always get frustrated because it never turns out how I want it to be so I end up turning to digital art. I guess I like this because there's a delete button in case you mess up. I also just like how it feels when you touch a drawing tablet pen or have a touchscreen to draw which is nice. As for my favorite shows, my favorite show is avatar: the last airbender which is about aang, an avatar who has to master all 4 elements to stop the fire nation from attacking. my favorite character is katara because she never gives up and if we're going the funniest character, I would say Iroh from the Fire Nation. Some of my other favorites are AP Bio and Emily In Paris. I consider Emily In Paris my guilty pleasure show because I don't like the way that Emily speaks her French as I, myself am a French speaker. Moving on to movies, I love a good comedy teen movie such as Tall Girl and Tall Girl 2. I guess I just like how I can relate to them somehow. Oh and don't forget about Mean Girls, that was a pretty good one. (RAISE YOUR YA YA YA). Oh my gosh and of course I have to talk about my writing experience. I love writing fantasy and dystopian novels. I used to write Horror stories, but they got too scary for me so I decided to cool it on the scary stuff. Sometimes I'll be in the mood to write a poem or a screenplay. Currently in my English class, we're writing a screenplay of a scene for Romeo and Juliet. We just finished the novel and we're taking 2 tests next week! I really should be studying right now instead of writing my 1k intro.

Finally, I love anything to do with nature. I love to go on hikes, go to the beach and go stargazing with my friends! I just love how you can explore nature and take aesthetic photos. Currently, I attend my school's Photography Club. The leaders there have really taught me how to proportion my photos and I've learned some useful tools like photo-editing. Photography is another big activity in my life. I just feel like it's useful and pictures like sunsets are extremely beautiful. I absolutely love joining clubs. I joined many clubs at my school. Besides Photograohy Club, I joined my Orchestra friends' biology club. We talk about Genes and proteins inside diseases. We learn tools to use for conducting research and overall just learning about the different types of proteins. Biology and Environment Science is probably my favorite Science area. I am also part of a Coding Club where we learn to code using Java and Python, but we also do worldwide coding contests. I completely forgot to mention I do coding. On the weekends, I learn how to code using the website, Python. Of course, I use scratch, but scratch is mostly used for scratch camps like swc, sic, sac etc. On scratch, I host a writing camp inspired by SWC, called Writing Universe Camp (WUC). This camp is hosted by myself and the amazing @CatMeowLove7. Anyways, I better focus on my English studying. Bye y'all and happy swc!!

SWC Daily 2
@AmazaEevee: custody, murder, collequial, popsicle, snow

The year was 2348 and Isabelle was walking down the streets of the city, Gloomaria. She was just looking for a bit to eat and some warm jackets as it was snowing outside. As she was walking, she noticed signs all over the place. There were Wanted Posters of a murder that happened to the Eerie Family. Isabelle had heard of this murder before, but she didn't really understand the details. She just knew that the police wanted to put the murderer into custody, but right before they could do that, the murderer went missing. Everyone in the quiet town of Gloomaria called this scary event "The Popsicle Murders." They had believed that someone was selling Popsicle in the snow.
“Why on earth would someone be selling Popsicles in the snow?” Isabelle asked her mother.
“Nobody really knows.
Some say the murderer was just trying to get money. Others say that the murderer wasn't thinking straight” her mother replied.
“I'm going to become Detective Isabelle” Isabelle thought to herself. Her mother had told her that the murder happened near a candy store called “The Caramel Candies.” So Isabelle rushed on over to the candy store to go find more information. Isabelle knew the person running the business. His name was Mr. Harry. Isabelle decided she was just going to have some colloquial conversations with him.
“Mr. Harry, do you know about the Popsicle Murders?” Isabelle asked
Mr. Harry paused, stopping what he was doing. “Oh Isabelle, you don't know what happened that night.” Mr. Harry replied.
“So what really happened that night?” Isabelle continued to ask.
Mr Harry sighed and said, “It was snowing when two men came into my shop. One man, Mr. had a box of Popsicles. I told him to leave them out of my shop since I didn't want it to melt. Mr. Eerie me in the face…” Mr. Harry shows Isabelle his bruised red cheek.
“Anyway, of course Mr. kept his Popsicle in the store. The other man, Mr. Smith had something abnormal in his pocket. It was hard to hear, but I heard something about taking over a Popsicle business. After that, both men ran out. On the news I heard that Mr. Eerie was k8lled. My guess is that Mr. Smith k8lled Mr. Eerie because of competition for the Popsicle business. But now it's up to you. I believe in you Detective Isabelle” Mr. Harry smiled before getting back to work.

Critiquitaire Piece: Seasons

Frost touched the windows of Galmoria. There was ice everywhere. Ice on the streets. Ice on the plants. Ice everywhere. There was even an ice skating rink and an ice hockey arena near the giant clock tower which also had snow on it. There were even some days where there would be a blizzard and everyone would have to stay inside under the blankets sipping hot cocoa by the fire. What the people didn’t know was that these blizzards wouldn’t last for long. Soon, the blizzard had stopped and the town had little stands that sold little redwood trees. Even though it was cold outside, they had a fun time decorating their tree with a beautiful and colorful assortment of ornaments. Some people would even listen to special holiday music. However, when the time came, it was time to put away the ornaments and trees as it was not snowing anymore. It was the end of Winter.


The weather was showing nice sunny skies and the flowers were blooming. Red, Pink, Blue, Purple. So many colors to enjoy. The snow was gone and the flowers were here and blooming in the town of Galmoria. Nobody would know that this would change, they were just enjoying the nice weather and all the easter egg hunts. It was nice seeing and hearing the bees buzzing in the flowers as well doing a good pollinating job. Bees buzzing from flower to flower. Oh how amazing it is. This was definitely a warmer change from the cold winter. A lot more people were going outside, taking walks, playing sports, and even just talking on benches. It was definitely a nice change from the cold weather and activities. It was time for the nice weather and flowers to wither and it was time for another season.


Clouds were dusted away as the bright sun was rolling into the blue sky. It was hot! Another day, another week of staying inside with the nice cool air conditioning. The streets of Galmoria were empty again except when a few people went out to get ice cream sundaes. Even though the streets were empty, the beaches were full. People building sand castles, sunbathing and even playing in the ocean. It’s like the whole town was at the beach from playing in the ocean to watching and listening to the white-bellied seagulls fly through the town. However, just like all the other moments in time, nobody knew it didn’t last very long. Instead, they just decided they wanted to enjoy what they saw. The moments that were spent together were limited, so they had to enjoy every moment they had with each other.


All of a sudden, that beauty was taken away. The whole surroundings went dark like a piece of paper that was sharpied. A few moments later, the town was brought back only it was a little bit different. There were Red, Orange, and Gold leaves everywhere. It was very pretty. There were so many of them that leaves started piling on top of each other. There was one little girl, May, who was up at 7:30 am when the rooster crowed. She went downstairs to the backyard, put on her boots and started jumping in the piles of leaves. She had so much fun as well as the other little children in Galmoria. Soon this would all cycle back all over again and the town would experience happiness being together.

Critiquitaire for @LilyJen

First of all, amazing job on descriptive language! I love the dialogue you use in between paragraphs - although I do think you can clarify who is saying these quotes.
In your first paragraph, I was kind of confused about where this even is located. Is this taking place in space? or is it outside of someone's house? I thought you could elaborate on the earthly counsel - who are they? what do they do? do they work for a space company?

In your second paragraph, who is he? because in your first paragraph you say “I”. Now i'm kinda confused because I'm not sure if this is in 1st person or 3rd person. When you say “explaining and pleading and bargaining,” I don't think you should choose all three since it seems hard for the reader to understand all of it, I'd say maybe just cut it down to one or two? What are the “good intentions”?? it sorta seems like you're going for mystery here, but I'm not sure if this is what you want

In your third paragraph, who are “they”? You tend to use pronouns a lot which makes me feel really lost and confused in the story. I like the simile where you say “Faces still and unchanging as the stars that circle through our skies.” Again, I think you could really clear up who is talking.

In your fourth paragraph, you switch back to 1st person which makes me confused as to whether you're in third or first person. When you say, “finally, he is finished” what is he finished with? Also when you say “…an astronomer’s desire will turn the stars from their course,” I like how you connect it back to the stars.

In your fifth paragraph, I love how you try to incorporate the Gemini constellation. Again, what person are you in? I feel like you keep switching from I to he. I like how you incorporated the simile “And as we climb, stars change from judges to guards, and they welcome us.”

In your sixth paragraph, I wish you would explain more. Why is the earth shrinking? How is it important? I like where you say “In the light of the stars, everything changes.” I like how you mention the stars and the meaning. Again, what person are you in?

In your seventh paragraph, I think you should maybe clarify a little more what exactly the plans are for. I was kinda confused when reading this and didn't understand what the plans are. I like when you say “he is brighter than any other star” because it reflects not only the brightness of him, but also reflects how smart he is too.

In your last paragraph, I was kinda confused about who will be together. I feel like “now” is a bit redundant since you say it twice.

Overall, good job! I loved seeing the amazing descriptive language. I think the one main critique you can take away from this is to clear up who is talking and the different persons. I think that you should stick to either first person or third person in this piece and not both!

word war with @-estel-

ok where should I start, I have no clue where to start because really nothing happened in my day because I woke up extremely late at 11 am (yes I love sleeping!) then I couldnt get out of bed so I just was scrolling on platforms and scratch on my phone while listening to music artists such as beabadoobee and Laufey. I was also listening to rosie's new album since a friend recommended it to me. I love the song “toxic til the end” I love how it has such a perfect melody and its in a singable key. aside from this morning, I finally was able to get out of bed so I rushed on over to my computer, got onto scratch and I had only “6 messages.” that was really sad because I was hoping for more, but on some days I only get “0 messages” which is just sad. anyway, after that I ate breakfast which was chicken and waffles (yum :0). after that I had to finish some history homework. we're learning about the Russian revolution but luckily the homework was easy. it was just taking notes and answering questions. after that, I ate some cookies and watched a new show called “the irregulars.” it was pretty suspenseful and intense, but also very funny. I recommend watching it. besides that I also had to do some more prep work for writing Universe camp (on scratch) in April. that was pretty much my day!
