Testimonials from GISHWHES '11

Gishwhes isn't just a scavenger hunt, it's like 10 days of pure thought, inspiration & creation. -Savannah Comilla

Gishwhes equals bucket list essential.-Kel

Misha Collins, Miss Jean Louis and Gishwhes has truly taught me that being normal is absolutely no fun at all and we should seriously bring death to normalcy as soon as possible.- Melissa Rosenberg

GISHWHES made me realize that if you throw your insecurities to the wind, get off your ass, and embrace insanity, there are a lot of people willing to follow your lead.-Rebekah Hogg

GISHWHES – holy crap, what was my life like before?-Elizabeth Combs-Cawley

I learned, loved and lived more in the past week than I have in some time.-Adria (team 6)

I am now afraid of social networking sites.-Thanh Turtle

Gishwhes was unadulterated bliss and chaos filled with seductive art and the coolest freaks. Absolutely life-changing. To put it simply, "Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.-Ari

GISHWHES has driven home that clichéd saying that nothing is impossible. Even the sky was our bitch in the end. I've learnt that eagerness, desperation, and ridiculous amounts of coffee do, in fact, an artist make.-Anna

GISHWHES opened my eyes to the world, from a brand new perspective. It taught me that everything around us is beautiful, no matter how ridiculous.-Christina Lynn

If every GISHWHES team did item #170, that's 600+ acts of kindness in the week or so that it ran. That alone was worth participating for, winning or not.-Kristen

I saw people meeting, loving each other, building great, and strange, things.-Ashley, Team 347

Gishwhes made me feel brilliant, flabbergasted, creative, emancipated, loved, loquacious, stressed, ostentatious, giggly, buoyant, tired, manic, onomatopoetic, elated and content. But above all, it made me feel like a part of something great and utterly wonderful.-Ida

GISHWHES has changed my life for the better. I have social anxiety, and GISHWHES was exactly what I needed to feel better. I did things I would never do: I created art, danced and sang along to songs with strangers, and made new friends.-Katherine

I lost five pounds on GISHWHES! Thank you, Misha Collins and company!-Nina Modelski

As a 31 yr old career woman, when you find yourself shouting 'WE CAN USE THE TAMPON APPLICATOR FOR ITS BEAK!' in your boyfriend's face, the two of you having spent the best part of a Saturday afternoon lovingly handcrafting a marine bird from feminine hygiene paraphernalia, it may be time to stop and question your life choices. Fortunately, as a GISHWHESEAN, I didn't. Same time next year?-Pinkwood

I'm not gay, but if I were, Misha would definitely be the one.-John Swindell
