I would sell my soul to get out of England at all, let alone all the way to the home of Scratch  tongue  I like travelling, and I want to see the world properly, but my parents and siblings don't like travelling... D: Anyway, I would if I could.

Why do I need to live in isolated Japan?  tongue

No Scratch Day? No Scratch users in a 100-mile radius? No... *gasp* High-speed internet?

Re: Are you interested in being interviewed?

Wewt - I just got back from my interview!  big_smile

I gotta say - it was pretty interesting!  smile  After an hour drive, we got there, into the 16 floor high building! Once we met him, my dad and him had a little programming talk, and then we got straight to the interview.

I won't give away much, but I have to say that he asked of course basic questions about myself, and scratch and other website usage, but then got into some very tricky ones, that I found fairly difficult to answer  tongue  - mostly about remixing and such. I think I was a bit nervous and excited so I didn't necessarily answer all of the questions the best...

But yeah - really great time! I was a very good hour, even though I wish it could have been longer  tongue . And of course, as I left, I went to KFC - a common thing my Dad and I do whenever were coming home from the Boston area. Sadly, it was rush hour, so coming home took a long time >.<.

Just kidding, but I'm uncomfortable being interviewed and such in person so I wouldn;t have gone. XD

Two years ago they asked similar questions to me.

Through the *phone*. A PHONE. SOOO 20th century. And it took about an hour; and I wasn't able to properly express myself lol xD And it was difficult to understand, because the connection was bad...

Re: Are you interested in being interviewed?

I notice you've edited your post; the title no longer references the Boston area, and you seem to have added this:

If you are not in Boston, I might be able to interview you over the phone or Skype.
