<p>The Mexican is displeased with such an arrogant and pestulant man. The Mexican wishes to find this Arjun Prakash and deliver to him a swift kick in the testicles, pending if he has any or not. This will bring pleasure to The Mexican.</p>
<p>the mexican is a genius and a very great man....me only wish me could eat enchiladas half has good as the mexican</p>
<p>The Mexican needs a life.</p>
<p>Hmm, I sense a lot of stress in this thread. Arjun, when I got into Cornell ED, I had nightmares for months that I would suddenly receive a letter saying that it had been a misunderstanding and I wasn't really accepted after all. Stupid, right? When you really, really want something (or your kids do, Momof2Teens) it's easy to get a little tweaky and irrational. It's not really fair to castigate this poor kid just because he's still feeling residual stress about getting into his top school. There is really no other time in your life that is more harrowing than senior year. I just applied to grad schools (one yes one no so far) and it was a totally different, much less fraught situation. My sympathies to everyone still feeling extreme angst...I remember it well (and so does my mom, who had to live with me all those unpleasant months.)</p>
<p>thank you Cornell03...i express deep gratitude to you</p>
<p>====- I love these online/chatroom/forum fights! they rock -====</p>
<p>"i'm beginning to wonder how fair the world is to me". Some kids in the world don't know when or where their next meal is coming from. Maybe you should chill out and learn to love life and what is given to you, you jerk.</p>
<p>My opinion, for whatever it is or is not worth, is that Arjun's feelings and concerns are completely understandable under the circumstances he faces, his assertions regarding the appropriate uses of this forum are 100% correct and the criticisms that are being hurled at him are, at the least narrow-minded and insensitive and, more-likely, are the result of a despicable lack of empathy.</p>
<p>Arjun, I understand that you're stressed out.</p>
<p>However, you seem to be posting the most abrasive posts possible on other threads without a significant contribution. Then, when others react in a similarly inappriate manner, you still express surprise.</p>
<p>You do have some posts with some valuble information. But you need to remember, that you haven't even started your college career yet. I find it very irritating when you find the nerve to make such condecenting posts on other threads when you are in no position to do so. You react to others questions and requests in a way that suggests that their thinking is irrational. . . .</p>
<p>I suggest that if you don't want reply's to your completely irrational posts to be painfully blunt, that you soften the edges on your own posts.</p>
<p>Sorry, I know you're enthusiastic about coming to Cornell, and that's good. . . but there are people on these boards that are trying to make a major decision. You seem to be dwelling on your future way too much. . .as seen by your near 1300 posts. Enjoy the rest of this year. . .Don't sit in front of your computer planning your "2 year" engineering curriculum, and freaking out because someone didn't email you in a 5 hour time period. </p>
<p>There's nothing wrong with looking forward to the fall. . .but be careful not to get so caught up in irrational fears and intricate plans for the future that you forget to live the present.</p>
