<p>haha okay good cuz i was like, mine is silver, is that bad? haha but i get it now</p>
<p>mine wasnt creative, it was a picture of me and twenty people screaming because we won state</p>
<p>Hey... I had a picture of me joking around with a friend at music camp with our instruments haha. ya, kinda lame but wtv.</p>
<p>My Rice box, if anyone cares to take a gander: :D</p>
<p>Oh, that's cute emilia!</p>
<p>I drew a map of the battle of Pea Ridge (Civil War Battle in Arkansas) from memory. Random, but I guess it worked!</p>
<p>I put a picture of my dog (a golden retriever) swimming in the pool. Underneath it, the caption read: "A leisurely afternoon at the pool with my dog, Jenny."</p>
<p>My box was not filled with pictures but rather a quote. Here it is!</p>
<p>Maybe in order to understand mankind we have to look at that word itself. MANKIND. Basically, it's made up of two separate words "mank" and "ind." What do these words mean? It's a mystery and that's why so is mankind. </p>
<p>I thought it was original :)</p>
<p>BTW it's a Jack Handey quote, I don't want anyone to think I came up with it on my own!</p>
<p>bluedaisy1234,</p>
<p>I was just about to say that you pulled a "Derrida" on me.
(If that makes any sense)</p>
<p>My box was filled with a picture of Pete Sampras because I love tennis</p>
<p>My box had a scanned in and reduced size piece of a music score. Definitely not what got me into Rice. LOL.</p>
<p>Joey</p>
<p>I put a quote from thomas paine :
"the world is my country, mankind my brethren, and to do good is my religion" and i penciled in an outline of a dove </p>
<p>the alumni i interviewed with said she drew a butterfly</p>
<p>I haven't thought about this box since I first sent it in....hmmm : ).</p>
<p>I wrote two chinese characters "bao rong" in black felt tip, then in pencil behind the words I wrote about the meaning of each word, and how they came together to mean 'tolerance/inclusion' --> stretched that to why I expected to find it at Rice, something about how it was fundamental to the human spirit and an ideal to live by....man, I cannot remember, but I was very pleased with it at 2 a.m.....</p>
<p>i put a calvin and hobbes comic strip! i hope they laughed...it was probably the funniest one hes ever written.</p>
<p>aww, haha, i love calvin and hobbes. what was it what was it :D</p>
<p>What I coincidence; I bought my first comic book of Calvin and Hobbes in India. It, unfortunately, did not belong in my pile of Archie comics.</p>
<p>I folded an origami square that matched the size of the space and when they opened the folded flaps, the word thinking was on the flaps. So it basically was one of those puzzles everyone does that meant "thinking outside of the box."</p>
<p>lol, mendelssohn</p>
<p>I put a quotation from Edmund Spenser's The Faerie Queene. But I havent been admitted (yet? I hope). I hope they like it.</p>
