<p>actually.. i was wondering that too.</p>
<p>That was sooooooo funny. And it managed to get me all riled up. How fun and way better than doing economics homework. Ivychick, if you're for real, drop me a PM or an email or AIM me (same sn as I use here). I'd really like to chat with you. I mean this in the nicest way possible, but you need an attitude adjustment, or you'll end up digging yourself into an embarassing hole. Right now, you sound just like my Asian parents. :) </p>
<p>And if not, that's okay. You can stay just the way you are. Just stay away from Yale if you can't change your mindset. Though, from the way you just behaved yourself, I wouldn't even wish you on Hahvahd.</p>
<p>Damn..I really wish I saw the thread earlier.</p>
<p>This "hotivy" girl has been severely brainwashed. From the start, I knew she was Asian. Her parents and friends have engrained the notion that only Harvard and the Ivies are 'good' institutions. Her family has probably spent a fortune on her SAT prep, tutors, and not to mention her private school education- I like to call this "hyper-education" And naturally, as sad as it is, it is these people that are so fortunate that brag the most about their stats. They take it for granted. It's really sad to see..</p>
<p>Sigh. She's made me ashamed to be Asian.</p>
<p>Hotivy, do you by any chance go to the Lawrenceville School in NJ?</p>
<p>Because my neighbor went there and he had extremely similar stats and EC's...well actually he had better test scores. He applied to every single Ivy League school and guess where he ended up....ahh the mediocre Brown University. So be careful what you wish for.</p>
<p>she said earlier she went to Idyllwild...but lol, Lawrenceville. Or possibly Ridgefield Park, or Fort Lee...i've met tons of those kids there lol</p>
<p>My D showed me this thread...here is some observations from a mom who Ds have had to deal with Hotivy type girls before...I am going to assume she was a real poster for sake of argument. If it was a fake, it is in fact even sadder.</p>
<p>The OP is a typical high school girl who people all tell is so wonderful and has a way of appearing all nice and sweet. But deep down, she acts like a typical "mean girl". If you read her posts there was a pattern, first bragging, then defensive, then mean, then all upset, then bragging, then defensive, etc etc. It didn't take her very long to start acting pretty ugly.</p>
<p>Whenever she was called on her rudeness, crassness, downright obnoxiousness, she would suddenly get so sorry and wants to be friends again. Read Queenbees and WannaBees, or Raising Ophelia. </p>
<p>If hotivy is a real person, she is a big fish in a tiny pond....its amazing what happens to those fish when they are suddenly thrown in the ocean and see what is really out there. And by the way, being president of sooo many clubs looks more like a popularity contest than anything else. As well, at most schools the yearbook and newspaper compete, and to have one person in charge of both seems a bit odd. I frankly don't believe everything in the profile as it appears noone else goes to the school. But that's just the cynic in me. After the OP got sooo defensive and rude and was so ready to put everyone down. I am suprised with that attitude people voted her president of anything. I know I am being harsh, but she was deserving after so much bashing of such great schools, and the people that go there. </p>
<p>All I can say, is that one day she will have a boss who went to a school she doesn't not respect. That will indeed be interesting. If she does get into an Ivy as she is so desperate to do, if she goes in with that attitude, she will soon be all alone. </p>
<p>She needs to learn to listen and not be such a bully. Which, in my Mother of Two Teenage Girls, will freely call her.</p>
<p>I dislike bullies intensly, and am amazed at what they get away with. But, not on CC!! Just be warned, I don't think she was really sorry. Just embarrassed.</p>
<p>Seriously, if this hotivyleaguewannabe ends up at Brown, I will be very disappointed. Only cool cats like tore and calidan (and all the others I don't know) are welcome! If Cornell is your safety, I kind of hope you come off as conceited in your apps as you do here, and wind up at your CC for a year until you can transfer to your STATE school.</p>
<p>the ultimate ending:</p>
<p>ivyhotwhatever is rejected from all her schools, has missed the deadline for all other schools, and must go to a local CC</p>
<p>mwhahahahaha</p>
<p>edit: oh, rabo beat me to it :p</p>
<p>after looking at hotivy's stats, i'm not sure how she can do varsity basketball and be some star cheerleader because at least at my school, cheerleaders cheer at the varsity basketball games</p>
<p>For the record, an "OP" is the "Original Poster."</p>
<p>well said citygirlsmom. i guess we're all going to meet people like her in college... that sort of really sucks though</p>
<p>Well, usually girls basketball teams don't have female cheerleaders. So that is possible to do both.</p>
<p>Is this the Idyllwild School or is there another?</p>
<p>It seems weird that she would attend an art school.</p>
<p>I was just curious, so I looked up school, because I like to learn about schools. Notice the school enrollment. That is odd, but that is only if its the same Idyllwild. I am a bit of a nudge when it comes to accuracy, so I noticed her ranking and the school.s enrollment stats. Either the school is a different one, or.....If it is the wrong school, my apologies, but I could not find another with that name.</p>
<p>she's a fake.</p>
<p>.....3......</p>
<p>man... I was actually waiting her to bash on UMich...... then Alexandre will join and all hell will break loose.</p>
