<p>also congrats for jay. we all know you did ok ;)</p>
<p>diana just used 5 different smilies in a post. and my mom took one glance at the monitor and asked "what is that so colorful".</p>
<p>remember my missing TOEFL scores? i was worried sick that they never got my TOEFL scores, which would have resulted in my app considered incomplete, resulting in my app being deferred to RD. :eek: today they email asking me "not to worry, if you sent the scores, it will be recorded soon. As of now, your file is complete for consideration. You seem like a strong candidate, so don't worry too much! Best regards, XXX"</p>
<p><em>dances the yakitate again, this time willing izzy to join</em></p>
<p>"You seem like a strong candidate" Interesting. What exactly do u think they liked?</p>
<p>i don't know. it might be a generic statement, though. i know U of C.</p>
<p>Wow, Lakshmi..You know your math teacher's number? We don't know our teachers' numbers unless they happen to have a kid enrolled in our school; then we get it from the PTO Directory. (Oh, gah, that's so American.)</p>
<p>I communicate with my teachers either by emailing them if I'm sick or hunting them down during breaks/study halls. :D Es bueno.</p>
<p>Uhm..<em>clearing throat</em> He's...21..well..he's still a lil' boy for his..inconsideration..for your..health and sleep.. :o (Oh, yes, that's how I am flustered.)</p>
<p>Wooohoo!!! <em>dances the yakitate avec Banedon</em> Yay!!! Your TOEFL score will arrive and you're a strong candidate! Flex those muscles for us, banedon! (Yes, I know I mix and match the capitalization of your name. I'm female. :) I'm contradictory. What else do you expect!? ;)) </p>
<p>Now, don't say it's "generic"! I'm sure they wouldn't bother with reassuring applicants AFTER they get your money and application! They only sugar you up while trying to get you to apply (app money!! And lowering their acceptance percentage) and if you're accepted, trying to get you to deposit! For four years!</p>
<p>AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSSIE</p>
<p>OI OI OI</p>
<p>WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO</p>
<p>WE BEAT URAGUAY!!! WE GO TO THE WORLD CUP NEXT YEAR</p>
<p>WOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO</p>
<p>BEAT IT URARAGUAY- ONE OF THEIR GUYS EVEN HAD THE GUTS TO SAY THEY HAD A "DIVINE RIGHT" TO GO TO THE WORLD CUP</p>
<p>BEAT IT!</p>
<p>WOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO</p>
<p>I apologize to any Uraguan or anyone who supports uraguay but your team sucks and your arrogance has come back to bite you.</p>
<p>...is this soccer world cup?</p>
<p>Or another sport, altogether? </p>
<p>Should I run to my Australian biology teacher and ask him? (He's a big cricket and soccer/European football fan.)</p>
<p>SOCCER..... OUSE BABY YEAH</p>
<p>WOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO</p>
<p>Tell him if he doesn't already know. IT IS THE GREATEST GAME EVA!!!!</p>
<p>OUSE BABY YEAH!</p>
<p>Bah, he's got a class now. I remember last year he and an Indian classmate argued so much over cricket matches.</p>
<p>....</p>
<p>I was so lost trying to listen to their conversation. How can a game's score go up in the hundreds??? Gimme basketball any time of day.</p>
<p>BASKETBALL!!</p>
<p>football's the best game ever... !</p>
<p>[btw i prefer calling football, "football"!!! not soccer!]</p>
<p>yeah!!! go football! Its nice to make the americans feel so alien by telling them that what they call soccer is actually football :p</p>
<p>It's SOCCER, not football!!! If you say "football", potentially people will get confused. You say "soccer", they'll ALL know what you're talkin' about, even if you don't use that term yourself. Soccer soccer sooooccerr</p>
<p>Basketball's the best game ever!!!</p>
<p>soccer there is football here, and football there is rugby here. :)</p>
<p>basketball is cool...but whats your height izzy :p jk</p>
<p>:O OHMYGOD! Another sizist!!! <em>deprives callthecops2 of any future chocolate from me</em> HMMMPH! So I'm below 5'6"...who cares?</p>
<p>Rugby and football (American) are so different...what's with throwing the ball only BACKWARDS in rugby? Our arms don't bend that way... I love throwing a football around; it's utterly relaxing and you can feel the stretch of it throughout your entire body... <em>sighs</em></p>
<p>i love football too! the one where you kick the ball around; not the American one. unfortunately, i'm so un-athletic that i can't play anything at all. my friend and i used to play against some other guys and i'd always kick off my shoe while trying to kick the ball and he'd give me "i'm-so-sorry-you're-in-my-team" looks but then we'd always win because he's an amazing player. so yay!! :D</p>

football football football!! soccer in the US. but for the rest of the world it's FOOTBALL!! i don't even know why the americans call their game FOOTball when the ball's in your hands most of the time!! and they should stick to "american football" instead of "football". football is taken!</p>
<p>callthecops2 just pwn3d herself....:D</p>
<p>i rmember once in school when i kicked the ball so hard it flew out of the school compund onto the highway. gawd we nearly got into trouble had the ball not roll by itself into the drain.</p>
<p>also few months back we were playing beach football. you know how the beach slopes downwards as it nears the sea? one of my friend "tackled" me in his attempt to snatch the ball away from my dribbling. he pushed me a little too hard i actualyl fell and roll into the sea and <em>sploosh</em>. :o</p>
<p>pwn3d? explique, s'il-te plait?</p>
<p>oooh...losing balls in school... I did that while trying to learn to play tennis afterschool. Too many were hit over the walls and into a neighboring house so...was kindly asked to join another activity. :D
Strong legs, banedon, strong legs!</p>
<p><em>gasp</em> ooh, banedon, wet from the ocean!! <em>runs and wraps you in a towel</em> ;) new towel, too.</p>
