Barnard Class of '20 Discussion

Where are you guys from? I’m from New York City

I’m from New Jersey. Around the Princeton area.

@barnardhopeful1 i live in CT!!! :~) it’s weird applying to a school so close to home isnt it

I love how active this thread is. Pardon me while I go catch up. :’)

@teenwitch haha idk tbh I chose to stay in the city because I don’t think I’m ready to be away from my parents. It’s a pretty lame reason but they’re my support system

@barnardhopeful1 That’s not lame at all! I refused to go more than a few hours away for exactly the same reason.

@barnardhopeful1 Omg, that was actually me. I was searching up a synopsis on the wiki site on this one episode because I totally didn’t catch this one part of the plot, and then the links on the side totally spoiled me. Also, it was the AMAs or some music award, I think, and they were acknowledging the show’s finale… with the biggest spoiler of the show. Is it worth continuing on though?! I’ve been debating, but I really don’t know how I’m gonna cope with some of the characters’ deaths…

@teenwitch Same re: Biebs tbh, just because I like acoustic-y, indie-y music doesn’t mean I can’t appreciate a good jam when I hear one.

Also, I’m from northwest Colorado, but I’m psyched to head east

@blooberries YES YES YES 100% YES!!! Even though you know the outcome it’s interesting to see what leads to it and so much goes on in between. Honestly it’s the only show that I watched where I felt like I was a part of the family and that it was real life. I was so invested into it I got all of my friends and their families into it lmao

@barnardhopeful1 that’s so nice and adorable that’s great!! yeah it’s nice having em right there. also. you live in NYC!! one of the best cities on the planet !

I’m from Long Island, but I grew up in the city and lived there up until seventh grade. I was accustomed to the usual busyness of the city, but experiencing the peaceful oasis-ness of Barnard really made me fall in love even more. It’s smack dab in the city, but there is something about the campus that blocks out the hustle and bustle. (Cheese alert!!) Barnard is really just the best of both worlds for me.

@barnardhopeful1 OKAY. I will take your word for it and continue! Oh my god, I’m crying at the fact you got other families into it. Shameless dedication!!

@teenwitch haha yep that’s my other reason! Why would anyone want to leave New York?

@blooberries I just couldn’t resist Charlie Hunnam he speaks to my soul lololol

@blooberries where on LI?!!? i have family who lives there on the north shore!

I live in Miami, FL but am originally from Syria and Venezuela, but born in the US.

@blooberries just realized that sounded creepy! sorry girl!!

Guys, I was gone for a couple of hours and I came back to over 50 posts on just this thread! I’ve read through all of them and all of you guys seem so amazing. Hope that we’ll all be seeing each other at Barnard next year!

@blooberries HTGAWM is the craziest show I’ve ever watched in terms of twists and turns. When I was watching it, I had to pause like five times an episode just to fully take in what was happening. Sadly, I don’t watch any other Shonda Rhimes shows but I might just start Scandal to fill the void where HTGAWM was. I’m trying to stay away from Grey’s because there are so many seasons and binge watching it would ruin my life and my grades

@mrnwkl I’m also from South Florida!!

Hi guys! I commented on this a lot earlier. Super anxious for decisions!! Any New Girl, The Office, SVU, Mindy Project, Parks and Rec fans out there? Also shoutout to my MUN fanatics : )

@llamalover321 Huge SVU fan!
