<p>Yes, it's just a nice family Christmas picture. Harvard, not even for Grad school. I plan to go elsewhere. Stanford or Chicago. </p>
<p>I decided to apply to Cornell in 10th grade. I picked all the others the summer before my senior year. So, I'm pretty sure about the fact that I'm going to like Cornell.</p>
<p>Where else did you apply?</p>

there, I can tell you guys who I am without telling you guys who I am, slick.</p>
<p>Pton (Early and was deferred along with the other 3 applicants in my school), then Cornell of course, Georgetown, Penn State (Accepted), Duke, and Kenyon (I'm a 3rd generation and have a sib there so I'm okey). How about yourself?</p>
<p>Just Cornell, I'm a freshman.</p>
<p>Ah, already there. I see. Your on break now though, right? Just Cornell? How did you make the decision to apply to one school? We had one person at our school who did something liek that. He only applied to Harvard, then he was deferred. Oh, it was kidna funny, but I don't like to be the Schadenfreund.</p>
<p>Yea I'm on break. Well, I applied early and was going to fill out more when I got my deferral/rejection, but I got in and was satisfied that I didn't even start the other ones and threw out my massive folder of applications.</p>
<p>Yeh, that's one good thing of gettign accepted early, lol... What other schools were you at least looking at though? Before you pitched all the files?</p>
<p>UPenn was my next choice. NYU was my backup plan, but I really didn't want to go there. Bing was my backup backup, but I would have transferred out of there.</p>
<p>UPenn is an excellent school. I was actually going to apply there ebcause of the Anthro programme, which rivals Chicago, but once I found out that 4 UPenn hopefuls (1 was a legacy) were straight-up rejected at my school, I thought I'll just skip it. NYU is good too. I decided last minute not to apply there aswell to be honest. NYU is great, but the city is not for me as a college student. So, I didn't feel I wanted to apply because it asn't for me either. Bing, never even heard of it. Probably be a good idea to transfer. But, your at Cornell that is good enough. lol..</p>
<p>I think 3/4 applicants got in to Penn from my school. Something like 7/10 got accepted to Cornell. It was a good year for our public non-feeder high school. You should apply to UPenn last minute, you wouldn't want to wonder "what if" for the rest of your life ;).</p>
<p>Yeah, I agree about NYU. I love the city, but I didn't want to go to college there. Also, I feel like some of the people there are sort of artsy, Starbucks drinking pseudo-intellectuals, which is annoying.</p>
<p>Yeah there's a Starbucks right in the middle of the campus. Big one, too.</p>
<p>i thought id bring back this magnificent thread, by a remarkable author... keep those myspaces coming everyone</p>

<p>Ok reading this whole facebook/myspace/lj/xanga thing is starting to **** me off. As someone who was actually out of elementary school when the whole blog/journal/networking thing took off, I will try to explain it to you kiddies. </p>
<p>First, God created livejournal. And it was good, for whiny emo kids could disclose their deepest darkest secrets, air their dirty laundry, and comfort each other about the harsh realities of high school life. Then normal people began to use livejournal. The funny thing is, people posted as though they thought no one would read it, putting all kinds of stuff out there in the public domain that they normally wouldnt tell anyone. This created a great source of gossip, as, for the first time in the history of mankind, you could actually go online and find out, firsthand, who the captain of the cheerleading squad blew after prom. </p>
<p>Then Satan saw that high school kids loved to type. And he saw that there was money to be made in pop-up ads. So he created Xanga. And, for some reason, despite the fact that xanga was about as technically different from LJ as a camaro was from a firebird, people started actually using it. These people are lame. </p>
<p>Then, a group of students created thefacebook. The knew not what they did, for it caught on like wildfire. Facebook was originally reserved for students at elite universities, before being sullied by its expansion to include state schools, regional schools, and yes, even community colleges. But it was, is, and always will be the original and premier online networking site. Having a proficiency with facebook is an essential college skill. Some of you seemed to imply a dislike of facebook. Shame on you. If you do not embrace facebook, you will be crushed. Without facebook your college existence will be horrible, as you will not be track down people in the same classes as you to copy homework, stalk your hot TA, or figure out the first name of the person who woke up next to you this morning. </p>
<p>But Satan did not sit idly by. No, he knew that nothing ****es high-schoolers off more than the existence of something that they arent allowed access to. And he knew that there were lonely old men sitting in basements who love to prey upon said high schoolers. So Satan searched his hard drive and dug up the old Xanga code from a few years before. After bolting on a pair of training wheels and adding a hell of a lot of plug-ins, myspace was born. And the high schoolers rejoiced.</p>
<p>Point being, all else aside, you cant rip thefacebook. And you have to admit that myspace is a cheap, poor attempt at a ripoff of facebook. Once you get into college, you should seize the opportunity to repent and abandon myspace. That is all.</p>
<p>lol.. nice nice ^^</p>
<p>i finally gave into myspace: <a href="http://www.myspace.com/jacks888%5B/url%5D">http://www.myspace.com/jacks888</a>, but facebook is still better so join facebook! and soon we will have college facebook which even better:)</p>
<p>aright im gonna have to make a myspace now... :/</p>
