Beamers,

Check out the great photos of last year’s project on Caitlin Berrigan’s website.

 Two Domes designed by Caitlin Berrigan and created by Beamers for the Beam 07 Project were part of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute’s BioArt Initiative in November.

The epic continues.

I was eating dinner when my stomach started to hurt. I went to Delphine, the doctor, and she checked my temperature. It was 103! She gave me some medicine. I rested in bed. I had to sleep there all night. In the morning I felt better and made origami. The origami was an ice cream. First i made a cup. It was yellow. Then I made a green circle and put it inside the cup. It looked like ice cream. In two days I felt all better.

Please, Tom, don’t do it!

A lot of people have been swept away by the series by J. K. Rowling. “Harry Potter” truly is amazing, I think. I have read all of the books, some more than once. I’m sad that the series is over, and I think it kind-of changed the way I look at life. Since the seventh and final installment of “Harry Potter” came out right before camp, it was fresh in everyone’s mind. I took a survey to find out which character was the favorite at BEAM Camp. These were the results:

Fred & George: 4
Dobby: 4
Hermione: 4
Harry: 2
Grawp: (giant) 1
Tonks: 1
Ron: 0
