Class of 2009!

<p>Hey everyone. I'm sure you've seen my posts but I just thought it would be cool for the class of '09ers to introduce ourselves to each other. I'll start.</p>

<p>Name: Julia</p>

<p>Location: Los Angeles, CA</p>

<p>Going for sure? Or deciding between Tufts and <strong>(fill in the blank)</strong>?: Going for sure.</p>

<p>Thinking about majoring in: IR and Music</p>

<p>Some interesting things about you: I love music of all kinds (except for heavy metal, hard rock, and rap) but my particular fav. is classical music (I know, kind of random). My dream is to be an opera singer but if I don't end up doing that, I'll probably be a diplomat, international lawyer, or something similar that deals with international relations. I'm a really friendly person and am super-approachable which is why you should definitely drop me a note :) So yeah! That's me. </p>

<p>How excited are you about Tufts: I'm sooooooooo ridiculously excited. I applied ED1 and Tufts is for sure my no. 1 school.</p>

IM: tastyswedishfish</p>

<p>Just thought I'd add here that I was in Boston this weekend to look at the Honors Program at BC. It was nice, but something just didn't seem right. I got bored and left early, so my mom and I decided to drive to Medford to take another walk around Tufts to see how it would compare. I finally realized the difference--the kids at Tufts were walking around, hanging out outside, studying, acting like college kids. I saw maybe 10 actual BC students on campus when I was there. Tufts just felt more lively and a lot more interesting. I'm so excited to be accepted! Sorry for rambling</p>

You could say its a one of my more dirtier recreational pleasures :-P.</p>

<p>I was reading that Fun Facts on the Tufts admitted students website and I found that the youngest student admitted was 6/28/89. I was amazed... I'm almost as young though, haha, 12/14/88. At least I won't be the youngest one attending (if that young'n over there chooses to attend).</p>

Majoring in: Computer Science</p>

<p>Interesting Things about me: Ummm.... Football Recruit. I think that's pretty cool.</p>

<p>Excited?: Well, other than the fact the best computer science school in the world is 4 miles down the road, I'm pretty stoked.</p>

<p>I just realized what a pessemistic statement I made. I apologize. When I visited tufts for an overnight, I had a blast. I really can't wait to get the hell out of Maine and into BOSTON! Wooo!</p>

<p>Besides, Even if I could go to MIT, (There's no way in hell I'd get in... I only got a 1370) I know i would die of academic exaustion. I would like to go there for Grad school, though...</p>

<p>But overall, I'm REALLY excited about going to Tufts. It fits every cridential I wanted in a college (size, location, ect), and the fact that I'll be playing football in college is the icing on the cake. So yeah, I really shouldn't be such a dink.</p>
