Barry's Camper Years
Surely establishing a precendent of some sort, Barry's counselor during all 5 years of camperhood was Mok-yi Chow. Over his 5 years at camp, he became inseparable with several returning campers; this culminated in the formation of the entity F4 in 2003, composed of the four long-time campers Barry, Jeffrey Ian Chen, Daniel Chen, and Quentin Tai in Group F.
Barry, like his former camper George Peng, is an avid drummer and performed with the group Forever Young for a number of years. He also won the superlative, Most Musical, in 2001 for playing the drums during his B6 skit, and was again nominated in 2002. The audience was apparently captivated by the concept of an Asian drummer, because Barry really isn't all that good.
Barry also greatly enjoyed helping to put together the WMACS Yearbook, which has since evolved into an electronic CD. He was especially involved in 2000, 2001, and 2002.
Barry as a Counselor
WMACS had such an impact on Barry (to this day, he still owes a significant portion of the development of his social skills and characteristics to the camp) that he even wrote about it as the topic of several of his college essays. After graduting from high school, Barry eagerly returned to camp as a counselor in 2004, his first year of eligibility. As a junior counselor, Barry led the "Dog" group, the second-youngest group of campers.
Barry was unable to attend WMACS in 2005 due to summer courses, but he returned in 2006. His WMACS career came full circle as he took on the group B4, the very age group that he had been in his first year of camp. Also, in a revival of "Counselor Switch Day", he "adopted" the group G3, which quickly became his favorite adopted group ever and which he now fondly looks after as his little sisters, or daughters, or whatever.
Skits
During his camper years and even as a counselor, Barry was particularly proud of consistently taking an integral role, usually with fellow group member Ian Chen, in skit-planning. Skits he has been involved with over the years include:
- 1999 - Counselor Deathmatch (B4), a parody of the MTV claymation series Celebrity Deathmatch.
- 2000 - Thursday Night Live (B5), a parody of the NBC comedy show, Saturday Night Live.
- Song: Vitamin C - Graduation
- 2001 - A Day In the Life of WMACS (B6).
- Songs: Incubus - Drive
- Puff Daddy - I'll Be Missing You (in honor of Chris Tuan)
- 2002 - Space Camp: Attack of the Staff (Group E), a parody of John Lucas' Star Wars movie saga, especially focusing on the recently released Episode I: The Phantom Menace.
- Song: Vertical Horizon - You're a God
- 2003 - A Week at WMACS (Group F), a general skit parodying the counselors and other happenenings of that week.
- Song: Eagle Eye Cherry - Save Tonight
- 2004 - The Apprentice, the 2004 counselor orientation skit and a parody of the NBC reality show, The Apprentice.
- 2004 - The Lord of the Keys, the 2004 counselor skit and a parody of Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings movie saga, based on J.R.R. Tolkien's novels.
- 2006 - WMACS-Men, the 2006 counselor orientation skit and a parody of the X-Men comic series.
