<p>@rishav thanks… I’m almost set on going there but I still wait in anticipation for ivy day like everyone else… </p>
<p>Princeton’s supplement was SO MUCH EFFORT… Stanford’s was worse, part of the reason I didn’t apply :’)</p>
<p>@Lemming
I applied to Stanford… some of those essays I actually weren’t able to answer properly!
Princeton’s supplement was easy to answer… but required a bit of thought, like favourite keepsake? I don’t really have one… but I said a lump of fools gold that was given to me by a friend :P</p>
<p>yoooo. I screwed mine up. It asked for ‘two adjectives’ yeah? I put an adjective and an adverb. <em>facepalm</em></p>
<p>@PO
Haha! I don’t think they will mind that too much, you’ll have to see this clip (it has adjectives and someone included a word that isn’t one)</p>
<p>[Jackie</a> Bello - Princeton University Class Day Speech 2009 - YouTube](<a href=“http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84hExVbYonU]Jackie”>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84hExVbYonU)</p>
<p>I forgot what I mentioned for that part</p>
<p>I really doubt that the little weird quirks on our application will send us to the reject pile…
<em>fingers crossed</em></p>
<p>I think with Princeton they might actually help… depending on the quirks :P</p>
<p>That’s true!!
I put an Easy A quote in for my favourite quote :P</p>
<p>Hey guys, how many of you will be on CC even after going to a college/uni? I’ll try my best to be a regular CC user! (Okay I know that you have been discussing about essays for quite some time, but please forgive me!:p)</p>
<p>I will be here for the rest of my life!</p>
<p>@youny: welcome 
i applied to a lot of LACs that you applied to, as well 
I love your emoticons! :P</p>
<p>that Jackie Bello speech is amazing! :P</p>
<p>@Hopingforbetter and @Lemming
I definitely plan to be on here afterwards - advice, blogs… you know, the works :P</p>
<p>@Rew
it really is, one of my favourite class day speeches</p>
<p>I have a blog already on wordpress on college admissions, and it’s actually bizarrely interesting… the whole process etc :’)</p>
<p>Nice
I spoke to my old counsellor/headmistress and she seems to want me to help explain and advise the students from the A Level group planning on applying to the States 
so kinda similar :’)</p>
<p>I’ll probably use it as an excuse to get back here to Joburg (to see my GF too) haha :P</p>
<p>My sister’s going to South Africa this summer!! Don’t why this is relevant, but I think she’s flying to Johannesburg :’) </p>
<p>Less than 10 days to Ivy :O</p>
<p>That is really awesome Why is she coming to SA? And yea, probably going through Joburg (it is our main international airport… though Durban and Cape Town also have international flights… just less)
We are so close to Ivy Day crossing fingers</p>
<p>I don’t know… building a house or something great and community service wise?!</p>
<p>I just found out via Twitter that Carleton has put their admissions decisions in the post :O</p>
<p>Oh that is really cool, feel free to let me know more about this project thing :)</p>
<p>haha, honestly know very little about it but she seems massively excited to go! South Africa is an amazing country… much more exciting than little old England!</p>
<p>sorry, just wanted the 1800’s post :’)</p>
