<p>lol. i think weve scared some of our potential new members with our massive water-dumping campaign
haha, dont get me wrong, tang, im glad it happened, or else theres no way all of us would ever really get to know each other.
...
Well, since this is the Collegeconfidential after all, and a new season of college apps is about to begin, i thought i might make a list of us old members, with the colleges we are going to, and perhaps a few lines of advice for our incoming members from our accumulated experiences

yy0712; UT austin (make sure you can concentrate well on all your apps..try to make yourself stand out. applying to too many schools doesn't really better your chances... if you don't take them seriously, it's likely they won't take you seriously =)

<p>...
really sorry if i've missed anyone, please add yourself! (...going through 5o~ pgs of posts in half an hr can get a bit confusing..but then again, 1/3 of them are from the past 2 weeks anyway :D) Alright, guys, feel free to add/change/contradict anything!

<p>楼主一出，谁与争峰也！</p>
<p>haha...i agree with tang!!DDDDDD....that means 顶by the way.
shucks,i'm leaving for chicago on monday.i'm always leaving.why can't i stay in one place for long???geez..they say i'm like a real international student,as in i've studied all around the world or something.nah,that's exagerated.ok i think i spelt that wrong.脸红ING</p>
<p>inspired from yy0712's stolen yale joke, took a long time to figure out a watery version , hope anyone can improve it, or do a better version of it. this one is too surreal</p>
<p>在经历了第1xx次失恋后，我又来到了那个酒吧，点了一杯心痛的感觉。第一杯让人痛，第二杯让人忘，第三杯让人醉；只有痛后的醉，才能让人醉生梦死。冥冥中，我又点燃了第n支雪茄，吞云吐雾中，恰见一胖子牵一猴子入内。烈酒排山倒海，我眼睛一红，脑袋砸在了桌上。
猴子做了什么我不记得了，胖子说了什么我也不记得了，
只记得酒醒后咬了一下一颗已被咬过的Maraschino Cherry，那味道苦中透甜，又让我振作了起来......</p>
<p>lol. what a nice sense of imagination tang has here... :D

i read your other posts too. the schools that you are looking at are highly competitive out of my reach. very unfortunately, i can't offer any useful suggestions. so, i can only wish you the very best in the process and you shall get what's meant for you, and contribute to the positive progress of humanity.</p>
<p>tangs: wow thx man. Well those are just schools that i'm looking to get into, if i can, that is. If i can't get into at least NYU, then i'll probably just stay here in Canada. but then my only regret will be the ultra-uncompetitiveness of canadian HS.</p>
<p>Joe- don't worry. Canada does have some great schools (u of toronto, waterloo, etc). plus, handful of top u.s. schools treat canadian applicants as residents. Just do your best, and you'll be happy at the end no matter what.</p>
<p>hey joe!glad to meet you!so how long did you stay in singapore?i was there for two years,for my secondary school and a bit of jc.anyways,welcome and look forward to talking with you soon!</p>
<p>ok ppl,i'm so happy.i just heard that lake forest is actually really really good for a LAC.so i'm really happy.haha.i know it's dumb i just realized that.</p>
<p>haha van. of course it is! if you are going there, it has to be good!</p>
<p>this is like, the only thread i'm keeping up with nowadays... lol... so i guess there was a period of "cc crazy" and now its over for me</p>
<p>Back to Houston now...and leaving for college on 23rd.
Hope everyone's enjoying the last few days before school starts!</p>
