<p>Exeter applications are up!!!!!!!!!</p>
<p>I think that means that the paper applications should be coming soon.</p>
<p>Good luck with applications everyone!!</p>
<p>The essays aren’t too bad.</p>
<p>You have to send in 2 out of the 5 choices:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Favorite word and why</p></li>
<li><p>Talk about a topic or activity thats your passionate about</p></li>
<li><p>Favorite song and why</p></li>
<li><p>A moment when you felt challenged/successful/overwhelmed and how you handled it</p></li>
<li><p>Any topic of importance to you</p></li>
</ol>
<p>I really don’t get why they have both 2 and 5, aren’t they basically the same thing?</p>
<p>I chose 2 and 4… Yay :)</p>
<p>Im doing 1 + 2 or 1 + 4</p>
<p>1, 2, 3, or 5. leaning heavily towards 2, no idea what i’ll do for the second one.</p>
<p>:X eeek, essays are stressing me out</p>
<p>…gahhh i feel the stress already. >.<
when do you think they’ll be sending it in the mail?</p>
<p>^ no clue, but it’ll probably reach you guys by the end of september.
i’m in Canada though, and NOTHING SEEMS TO BE GETTING HERE. maybe the polar bears ate it up. :/</p>
<p>no seriously. has the deerfield application materials reached you guys yet? because it hasn’t for me.</p>
<p>i got my deerfield stuff yesterday. maybe it’ll take longer for you cause i live like max 45 mins away. lol</p>
<p>lol? I got my deerfield stuff like a week ago and I live in NH</p>
<p>I think I did number 3 and 4. I’m not positive which one but I know I did them at the last minute like I literally started a couple of hours before the deadline.</p>
<p>hahaha…i remember these days…lol it was only a year ago. I chose 1 and 2</p>
<p>yesterday is a relative term. i dont really keep track of time lol. but yeah it came sometime in the last week or so. also i like just did the deerfield inquiry on like monday or something.</p>
<p>I got my deerfield one about a week and a half ago. My favorite words are squeegee and stubby because they sound funny, so I don’t really think I could write a good essay on them! lol So I guess it’ll have to be 2,3,4 or 5 :)</p>
<p>my favorite world is wanderlust, it sounds so pretty haha 
but yeah, there’s no way i can write an entire essay on how much i love that word… but then again, you have to fit both essays on 1 tiny piece of paper so maybe it’ll work in my favor, i don’t know. haha.</p>
<p>The kids who can manage to write that essay on wanderlust and squeegee and make it somehow reflect on their personality, will have a great essay.</p>
<p>oh, ImCrazy… you’re tempting me. perhaps i’ll attempt 1. i have plenty of time, anyways…</p>
<p>the more i read over these prompts, the more ideas i get, heehee. thank you exeter, for the abstract prompts!
however, it’ll be a challenge fitting them onto 1 piece of paper 
i guess i’ll have to practice my ‘tiny’ handwriting…</p>
<p>just a suggestion: i did the word agathokakological because I adore it. I broke it down into prefixes and suffixes and rootwords to come out with the definition</p>
<p>woah… actually, thanks for that, ImCrazy! i found a way to tie that word in 
i’m working on a really rough outline right now… heheh. thanks again ~</p>
<p>Im a pretty lazy guy, so I mostly kept my ideas until I had nothing else to do BUT write it down. Its good that your taking the time to make outlines and stuff.</p>
<p>Good luck with applications</p>
<p>OH my gosh ahhhhh! I had no idea they were up. I am so excited. I am probably going to do 1 and 2 or 2 and 5. Thanks so much for telling me these were up. lol :D</p>
