<p>Rockin' out at home building a self-propelled car out of a mousetrap. =P</p>

<p>I want to go the the University of Chicago for the life of the mind. I was hooked by the first page of their viewbook, which told me the life of the mind is... "sexy... criminally underrated... a sequence converging to 0... ineluctable hierophany..."</p>

<p>I grabbed a dictionary, and I loved every moment. </p>

<p>Hey Noctua, spending time here on CC instead of studying your stats and history I see ;) </p>

<p>I don't know if I'll be applying, but the essay prompts look like so much fun that I might not be able to resist! (Did you see the prompt from a few years ago that had something to do with a bottle of mustard..?) </p>

<p>16/F/OH, by the way.</p>

<p>Unless I absolutely hate the place when I visit it this coming week, I'll be applying... 17/F/(C)NY</p>

<p>What summer session are you doing? (I'm applying this coming week for one of the writing Insights-- hopefully there are still spots open. Figures TASP results don't come out until almost every deadline has either passed or is about to...)</p>

<p>Hey Mandizz - </p>

<p>We should organize a "J-State" summer event - college app brainstorming session or something... 24 hours of non-stop idea toss, etc. And yes, the mustard is an old favorite. We could look at old essay prompts, peer edit, and eat Thai food. </p>

<p>I would love to do a summer session (especially the Egyptian Language/Lit!) but it took me three years of summer work to save for my trip to Germany... I can't afford it. =(</p>

11
