<p>Strawberryfields: "Effulgent-why do you get up at 4:47? Do you do crew or something? I always complain about who early I have to wake up for swimming, but compared to you that's nothing!"</p>
<p>I actually wake up at 3.37. However, I wake up early because it takes me one hour to sit up (4.37), more than an hour to shower (nearly 6) then I spend the rest of my time organizing until I leave for school at 6.30. I'm a terrible driver, so I leave early to avoid traffic.</p>
<p>That's another quirk, I believe. I am the most atrocious driver in the city of Orlando.</p>

<p>Strawberryfields:
I'm not in Brown. I'm just got on here cause I had to take short breaks from my app binge over New Years. Who woulda thunk you could spend so much time on something as short and easy as a 500 word essay? Anyway I come back to get an idea of the people at Brown.
Triceps:
Don't worry my shirt-sleeve busting friend. You can be my wingman and get the not-so desirable ladies off my back.
Back to strawberry:

"The wait for Brown's decision wont be too bad with YOU on the forum..."</p>

I thought I was the only person who played tennis at 1 am. I have actually played some of my best tennis at 1 am, sometimes it is just easier to concentrate running on adrenaline and without any distractions.</p>

<p>Cartoon Network is heaven. I can't believe how good some of the shows are (courage the cowardly dog, samurai jack, venture brothers, aqua teen hungerforce). Do you get the channel Boomerang? Cartoon Network used to host the oldies like Tom and Jerry as well, but I guess they moved all those over to the new channel.</p>

Quirks:
I hate coffee.
I won Nanowrimo...with no coffee.
I drew a detailed map of a world that I hope the rest of the world will see someday and have been working on an idea since 14, trying to emulate the master (see above).
I edited the work (albeit on fictionpress.net) of a guy from India and now we e-mail each other.
800s on every SAT pertaining to English (Verbal--but only once; next time it dropped 40 pts--Writing, and Lit)
(I will be getting into college for my English if nothing else.)
If I didn't already have glasses, I would want them...I think they're cool.
I took the unweighted Art instead of the weighted AP Statistics, because I love Art, and I don't regret it.
I hate bananas.
I have actually told the truth on everything written above (jeez, you must be thinking, what a freak!) ^_^</p>
<p>Yep! And I put that on my app. You should've seen me rushing back and forth from my writing computer to my Internet computer as the deadline approached, trying a CD (unreadable, it said), then separating that huge 50,000 word novel into 2 floppy disks...but it was so great.</p>
<p>Wow, I suck at writing. But we both hate coffee and we both told the truth in our quirks. That makes us alike!</p>
<p>Dang it orestes, I really hoped I might be able to start a trend after Sons of Liberty hit on Rachel (thanks for that Sons), but you just had to go and ruin it with ur cheesy statement. Oh well. I love you too.</p>
<p>Triceps and Radhika, How can you watch cartoon Network? I'll admit that looney toons (especially road runner, what a stud) were awesome. But alot of the new cartoons are hideous, of course, I haven't seen cartoon network in 5 years cause I dont have cable, but new cartoons in general suck alot. "Recess" rocks though.</p>
<p>yeah Joy... I'm also completely sick of HS..... so useless! I think senioritis is just the result of students finally realizing that high school can be so pointless... (some pick up sooner than others... which is why many of us get senioritis when we're freshmen lol)</p>
<p>And Rachel... nothing special for breakfast... just get me some pancakes, with a whipped cream smiley face drawn on them (and a cherry for the nose)... and umm some french toast... and uhhh waffles.... and uhh orange juice, freshly squeezed, preferably oranges from Florida, but not ones that have been off the vines for more than 5 days, and also not ones that have been next to cows, and uhh hash browns........ so yeah nothing special, it shouldn't be much trouble..... thanks babe. ;)</p>
<p>radhika--haha i do that too. I always make lists of what I have to do and then I just never look at it. Unfortunately I usually only do about half of what's on the list anyway.</p>
<p>TropicalTriceps- Yeah, green is pretty awesome...and I get pretty good discounts at A&F- 3 50% discounts per quater and unlimited 30% discounts......and I know what you mean about being so skinny your triceps are forced to stick out!...I'm like 115 pounds..haha</p>
<p>Knows11- yeah...playing tennis at crazy times is awesome but DANGEROUS....One night I strained one ankle and sprained the other! The next day after I got back from the hospital I had to explain that I was an idiot playing tennis at 1 in the morning....not fun!</p>
<p>Triceps: Yea, we get boomerang too.. i love watching that. Also there is a channel called pogo here which showcases children shows. Thats amazng too. </p>
