Brown Rocks!

<p>Most likely.</p>

<p>To answer your question, amor, no.</p>

<p>I'm going to Venice for a month right before Brown! </p>

<p>And thanks funkyspoon! My greek prof went on a tangent today about how kudos is actually singular and most people think it's plural and it annoys him. I forget what it literally means in greek though. I'll look it up later.</p>

<p>I am going to Venice and Avignon instead of ADOCH.</p>

<p>LOL I must agree that the Brown board has been quite active as of late. I don't know why this didn't happen earlier.</p>

<p>I can't help but think that this was spurred by my partial migration here from the Georgetown board. :p</p>

<p>Kudos means "magical glory" in Greek, by the way.</p>

<p>I want to go to ADOCH, but alas, I haven't been accepted (yet! :p).</p>

<p>Right! I think, as I remember, my prof explained it more as divine favor/glory. Do you take greek, tore?</p>

<p>Congrats to all of you who were admitted. I know the reaction is a bit delayed, but I'm new to CC. I will be in your shoes next year, and I'm already nervous. Any advice on how to deal with the stress when the time comes?</p>

<p>Thank you, Helix14788. There is no way to deal with the stress other than by making sure you put together the best application you can. Give it your all come next fall. If Brown is your first choice and you can make your best application by Nov. 1, apply ED. It worked for me. The best of luck to you next year. We may end up seeing each other on campus one day!</p>

<p>I don't take Greek, RaboKarabekian, but I find it interesting.</p>

<p>For some reason, I can imagine you majoring the classics, Tore.</p>

<p>Classics majors are sexy. I put down classics as my intended major, and if rumors about them taking credits towards your concentration is true, I could possibly be one course away from finishing the language requirements of a classics major. And that would be swell. More time to fish around and take more of whatever the hell I want.</p>

<p>I am considering it, honestly.</p>

<p>But if I had to choose between degrees that will offer me no money after graduation, I would choose art history :)</p>

<p>Classics majors are sooooo sexy. The last guy I dated applied ED to Brown as a classics major. Unfortunately, we lost touch, or, rather, he avoided contact with me for reasons beyond my knowledge. But, luckily, he got DEFERRED! HA HA HA! Serves him right!</p>

<p>If I had to choose between degrees that offer me no money after college, I'd so choose philosophy. Most useless and irrelevant subject ever!</p>

<p>Damned 60 second rule!</p>

<p>The 60 second rule is certainly an affliction.</p>

<p>A worse affliction than the cold you have right now or the cold I'll get from the new biological weapons lab they constructed at BU :).</p>

<p>If I majored in philosophy, I would be tempted to go out into Montana or West Virginia or somewhere remote, and philosophize. Then eager young minds would congregate to me and I would have a nice little following the the wildnerness of Montana.</p>

<p>I always wanted to start my own little community in the middle of nowhere. Imagine creating a society in which you made up the rules and other people followed you. The problem is getting people to join it.</p>

<p>But I suppose it's been done before. Look at Charles Manson. (But of course my rules would be diffent from his :) ).</p>

<p>If you could do that, what kind of society would you create? What rules would you have?</p>

Haha, funny you should say that...
If I have enough money to retire at a fairly early age, or if my writing career is enough to sustain me, or if I just get any chance to take a summer off, I want to live in a mountain meadow miles from civilization, just me and the wilderness, taking it all in as inspiration for writing and philosophizing. </p>

<p>I've concluded that if I don't accomplish this goal, I will never have truly lived.</p>
