We had a warm day today in Atlanta
@sbux>mostthings Creative writer, but I specialize in poetry, written, experimental, and spoken word. Got a state qualifier this Friday.
My teachers were pestering this other kid in my class if he got into Harvard ED (decisions come out tomorrow i believe) and then when i reminded them I ALSO applied to an ivy league, the response was “oh yeah i guess you did”. Dartmouth may be the smallest but in my opinion, its the best. Perfect fit for me
Does anyone know if when you get accepted there is a song that plays? i heard yale had something like that…
Anyone here play league of legends or any other games?
Me and my interviewer connected while talking about it but I never mentioned it or longboarding on my app.
@GiddyHiddy OMG that’s so cool. I specialize in essay but did my first reading a month or two ago and really liked it!
@BGMuleri I honestly wish i had the time to let video games even cross my mind. Between 5 AP’s, sports, a job, and a pathetic attempt to do meaningful community service i don’t even have time to sleep
@sbux>mostthings I sent them a poem that talks about a current event. It is a powerful piece that is meant to be spoken, but has enough depth to be read from the sheet.
My parent’s do not allow me to have a job, but my community service is where I shine. Anyone else Pres of NHS or something similar?
@GiddyHiddy did you submit the poem as part of a portfolio?
@GiddyHiddy also props for the state qualifier. That’s super hype
@sbux>mostthings No, I just sent it to them separate. I said I did poetry in my application, so I couldn’t just say it without representation…
@sbux>mostthings The portfolio isn’t meant for creative writing, so I just improvised.
@GiddyHiddy Congratulations on the state qualifier indeed! And I’m the president (and founder) of my school’s Mu Alpha Theta chapter.
@mindofbp Lol, all these things that literally do not exist where I come from. I hope my lack of opportunities doesn’t hurt me. I did make some opportunities though.
Totally off topic here, but am I the only 18 y/o on here? If I’m not, i bet I’m the only one on here with tattoos…? Probably the only kid with tats applying to Dartmouth tbh haha
@Erikj28 that’s awesome. personally im a girl but i want to get a tattoo when i turn 18 next year
anyone else starting to really freak out? I am getting so pessimistic about applying
@tokper7 Honestly it’s addictive. I have 4, all on my ankles [we’re all trying to become professionals, remember? ]. But yeah, i used to hate them and then when i came out i got a small gay pride one and i kinda just went from there haha. thats what happens when you’re 18 for like 3 months haha
