<p>Angels and Demons was alright but $20 says the reason you love it is cause DAn Brown went to Exeter. When I saw the movie (id yet to read the book at that point) i guessed the bad guy within 5 mintes, it seemed pretty obvious to me. Harry Potter is amazing, the plot may have been predictable but it’s the quality of the writing and the morals and symbolism behind it as well as the detail of the world that makes it such a wonderful book. Besides we’re perfectly entitled to talk about it for 2 pages you can change the subject if you want. I know for a fact Radinplaid loves Hp too so thats a majority of the applicants on the board.</p>
<p>AND Urbanflop I started the thread therefore you can’t tell me that I’m hijaking the thread. I meant it as a place for us to gather together and discuss the process as well as our interests. There is more to life than competition; you said on another thread that you loved the chances thread ro scope out the competition, I mean seriously? I try not to worry about who I’m competing against beyond the fact that I’m in the ‘range’ to be considered to attend one of these fine schools. Im just trying my best and not worrying about everyone else.</p>
<p>I know that’s so true, by reading the chances section it basically gets you know where because how are you suppose to know what schools want or don’t want. I mean yes we are competing to get a spot into one of these schools but, everything does look better on paper and what I think matters most is your personality…
who would you pick:the student you has straight A’s,awesome EC’s but no personality/who’s bland
or a student who has A’s but also some B’s,also has awesome EC’s, And stands out with its outgoingness(idt thats a word but w.e) and great personality…</p>
<p>I would defiantly pick student two because not everything is about academics or how many EC’s you do…</p>
<p>Wow, guys I was just kidding about the whole discussing whatever you want on this thread. Calm down, I had no idea you guys would take it so seriously. (sigh) And Blueraven just so you know I actually started reading Angels and Demons before I found out the author went to exeter. In fact I didn’t even know what Exeter was in 6th grade so before you make assumptions I think you need to realize that there are valid reasons for my liking a book other than sucking up to a school. (gosh the nerve of some people) Also, where did you get this whole thing about me like academics so much??? :mad:</p>
<p>That’s all you talk about UrbanFlop</p>
<p>Ok, i agree we all need to chill. We are all getting aggressive :D… Its just you seem to talk about acaemics a lot and tell people off for talking/caring about non-academic stuff.
It’s nothing personal and I don’t want you to feel we’re ganging up on you. We were in the middle of a conversation and you suddenly turned up and told us HP sucks, did you expect us to thank you for that opinion.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I am not understanding you anymore because you say you don’t follow me but then you say all I talk about is academics. Wow really I have never talked about hair dryers, tv show, books, clothes on this forum. (by the way these are things I talk about alot) Again you probably shouldn’t assume too much.</p>
<p>@blue raven just in case you don’t know you defenitely don’t own this thread so i can come and tell whatever I want on this thread…I didn’t mean for you guys to get super upset , it is just that you guys were talking about it so much and i was saying something that had to do with it: which is I don’t like HP.</p>
<p>Sorry, Urbanflop but i don’t follow you around on this forum
and just like BlueRaven said we’re not trying to gang up on you, but it’s not cool to interrupt our thread by saying HP sucks…</p>
<p>You said in that videogame thread that nobody should want to play video games at HADES that they shouldn’t have the time. but /sigh/ im not going to argue about somethingof little importance with somebody i dont know. I dont think I own this thread it’s just that you said we were talking about HP when it wasm’t even an HP thread and I was saying that the reason I created the thread was so that we could all have 1 thread where we could talk about stuff we liked as well as the admissions process</p>
<p>But Urbanflop we were praising HP
and why would you go in the middle of our convo and bash on it?
You should have created your own thread stating"HP sucks"
and there you will find people like you…duh</p>
<p>That’s the best thing I’ve heard from you all day A7X.
@bluereaven this is what I said about video games at HADES:
Please I know you like castles and wizards and the like but please try not to twist up what I say to fit your own agenda.
Thanks,
Urbanflop
P.S. I would just like to say I am sorry for coming in between with HP and I hope you guys will appreciate my apology but realize that I am allowed to say what I want about HP. :)</p>
<p>lol you purposly quoted the only bit in that thread that sounded sane making me look stupid. If i could remember how to quote I’d go and find it. But at the end of the day who cares. I admit we may have overeacted but there was also no need to contribute to a discussion where you had nothing constructive to add; you just said that the HP books were plain bad and why would we wish to read them. You’re entitled to disagree but personally I would have taken it better if you’d ssaid “Im not a Hp fan because…” but its water under the bridge now. IM sorry for being rude to you and I accept your apology.</p>
<p>Slytherin is my favorite (when you think about it as a misunderstood house) then ravenclaw with gryfs and puffs tied for third</p>
<p>Yes, Slytherin is awesome particularly in Fanfiction. Nice way of artfully dodging the conflict :p</p>
<p>@Urbanflop:I accept your apology, and sorry for acting like a witch…it just got me annoyed that you said something bad about HP while we were all talking about how much we love it =)</p>
<p>haha I guess I missed the conflict…whoops! 
I just recently discovered fanfiction lol im hooked</p>
<p>haha yesh you did…
but i think its over…
and i also like fanfiction :)</p>
<p>I just started writing some and yesterday I got 9 Reviews, for at total of 43!!! <em>dance</em> </p>
<p>Anyway,I’m so nervous. I heard we’ll get our SSAT back today and i’m mega bervous, I keep checking my email.</p>
<p>I’m so bored so I just decided to come on CC and do absolutely nothing. Blue raven you will be fine there’s nothing to worry about.</p>
