<p>hey guys! So, I know many of you are lurking around here (or we can face the truth and say stalking. ;)). Some of you prospies are stressed as hell since you started your application yesterday, and some are you as stressed as hell because you submitted your application 5 minutes ago. I thought something off topic from admissions and chances threads would be a nice little stress reliever. So, let’s play a game. :)</p>
<hr>
<p>Here are the basic rules. you have three lines. </p>
<li><p>on the first line, you answer the question posed by the person before you.</p></li>
<li><p>second line: an interesting/random fact about anything. it can be about your day, pluto, whatever. just don’t be obnoxious.</p></li>
<li><p>new question for someone else to ask. let’s try not to get repeats!</p></li>

Some days I'll sleep for 9-10 hours when my parents aren't around, but I usually go to bed somewhere between 1:30-3am (thanks to college. db you aren't alone lol) and then my parents force me up around 9:30-10 so it's anywhere from 8.5 hours to 6.5 hours. I accomplish very little during the day.</p></li>
