CTY Anonymous

Maybe you’ll see this and think “Why is this even necessary? CTY is such a nice place.” But that’s not the point. This is for you to be anonymous, to find little things that people love about you. This is for the secret admirers. This is for the little things you’ve noticed about your best friend, but you are too ashamed to tell them. This is for that time you wanted to tell a random stranger that her socks were wonderful, but you were too scared. This is for love. Because in the end, that’s what CTY is all about. If you're not feeling too great and feel that you need someone to talk to, visit our "Ask for Help" page to talk to supportive CTYers, find lists of hotlines, and find helpful links.

seeing the sessions start and end doesn't make me sad anymore. i don't know any of the names on here anymore. i don't miss cty anymore, just the people. i think this is closure.

Although this is my second year at CTY and I have 3 to go, I can’t help sink into this PCTYD and these are the moments where I wish that I had my awesome CTY friends to appreciate the home that CTY has built for everyone.

It’s been a year since we met and six months since we talked. I hope all is well, but I need to forget you and I wish I could do it more quickly.

love yourself

[ctyanonymous]

only 382 miles apart yet i feel like there are oceans between us. i miss you so, so much. i found myself in your shy smiles, the walks to night class, our childish footraces, even in the quiet scribbling of the pen i wish i stole from you. but i have lost myself, because i've lost you.

[ctyanonymous]

i'm sorry i didn't go to passionfruit with you.

[ctyanonymous]

i remember the day i watched your suitcase roll away because i couldn't bring myself to look up and know i'd be seeing your smile for the last time

[ctyanonymous]

i miss cty. it's been two summers now? and it all seems so far away but my heart knows it was the realest thing of my life. i just want to reach out and touch the smiles in the dining hall, sun-warmed concrete, right-foot-first, "cloud watching," muffled laughter in the dorm after lights out, bad days, good days, the taste of strawberry kiwi lemonade just leaving my lips.

thank you for making my last sunset in los angeles so beautiful. even the breeze that night was softer and i think the city lights dimmed for the three hundred of us dancing, crying in the pavilion

[ctyanonymous]

i wonder if you know you were my first slow dance

[ctyanonymous]

do you recommend fast paced high school physics? @lan or anywhere

[ctyanonymous]

the moment i realize that this is the last year im going to cty is going to be heartbreaking. how the hell am i going to fill up my summers now? i regret not choosing the courses i wanted to take bc ?? the people who i would have been in the same classes with?? and imagine, what if i went to lan as soon as i could? or imagine if i committed to car each year? what if? at least i figured out i was gay at lan lol
