do all the short takes have to be profound?

<p>thanks, dancer.</p>

<p>do you guys agree?</p>

<p>it’s a porn website for nerds?</p>

<p>i don’t know if you were talking to me (probably not) but my question was: for the free afternoon question, do they mean “what do you typically do with a free afternoon” or “what would you do if you could do anything in a free afternoon”? my response would be pretty different depending on what the question is asking.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>phrasing it like that is wayy too lame and lengthy for a school like Yale</p>

<p>i said I would nap and color with my cat</p>

<p>@ pigs, wait…what? i’m asking if that’s what yale meant by it.</p>

<p>whitecadillac, if you were an admissions officer, would you like to read “sleep, eat, do homework?”</p>

<p>I agree with dancer.</p>

<p>well i said that i’d work on my films and mentioned some everyday things i enjoy doing with individual family members.</p>

<p>Yep, in my opinion, that’s exactly the type of stuff they want to hear.</p>

<p>honestly, on a free afternoon, i would sleep (weekday) but i didnt write that</p>

<p>^^i wrote that I would nap, but I also put i would color and play with my cat</p>

<p>It’s the truth, so I really don’t see an issue. If they don’t like me for who I am, screw them</p>

<p>^ehhh wrong attitude hun</p>

<p>I wrote I would draw if I ever had a free afernoon… really boring answers, in no way profound.</p>

<p>yeah i’m still wondering if it’s what you would do (that you usually don’t have a chance to) or what you would usually do.</p>

<p>what I would usually do is even more boring than what I would do, so I went with the latter.</p>

<p>no lie, I’ve had free afternoons everyday for the past two weeks since out football team sucks this year so I don’t have practice after school. I nap. Throw in a couple of team dinners here and there too. =p</p>

<p>but i wrote what I would do if this season wasn’t over yet</p>

<p>I wrote that I wish I was better at speaking Classical Arabic because I only know colloquial arabic.
I wrote I would just play a pickup game of basketball or football.</p>

<p>Whitecadillac, the beauty of the question is that you are free to interpret it any way you want. Don’t worry :]</p>

<p>Pigs at sea, what do you mean “ehhh wrong attitude”?
It’s a fine perspective and I found your comment rather rude.</p>

<p>

^that’s offensive</p>

<p>^^how is that offensive…it’s a saying more than anything
I could have phrased it far ruder, but i didn’t</p>

<p>I also think my attitude is fine. It’s how I truly feel. It’s better to be yourself and get rejected than pretend and get accepted. I also feel my attitude is far better than the Ivy-obsessed one so many kids harbor.</p>
