MITES 2013 Discussion

<p>No, I’m not! And I’m only half Hispanic so I don’t know about my chances with MITES but we’ll see(: what about you?</p>

<p>If we dance, I’m in. The Mexican side of me will easily take me over! And trust me, my Latino hips serve my heritage well… even though I’m a guy, my hips don’t lie!</p>

<p>As weird as that sounds, I’m not kidding. I am more deft with my hips than most of my woman friends. And I’m proud!</p>

<p>Also, I play tenor saxophone. I’d probably just do some jazzy fun for a talent show! Not to mention that, after 4 years of working and saving (since I often need to help my parents when they can’t pay the bills, it took extra long), I finally bought my own professional saxophone today! I couldn’t be happier. :)</p>

<p>@Ozzy It means smooth. Like another word for cool. </p>

<p>Alpha and oOstruck I will in fact pray for you both.</p>

<p>@Areo Although I don’t look it, I’m actually more Mexican than black, but I cannot move my hips accordingly. I look awkward and they just don’t listen to me. Lol</p>

<p>Although I’m Asian, I’m 1st generation and Federal free - lunch qualified. :o to answer your question… I waived my fee for SIMR</p>

<p>@Nashia1505, Thank you! Although I have a safety already phew! I’m so relieved actually that I have a program to do research/social with.</p>

<p>@Nashia My school never has guest speakers, we only get politicians that want randomly to inspect our STEM programs. Just let me know whenever you hear back from your mentor.</p>

<p>After reading what I missed I feel bad my PS3 has been collecting dust for about a year because I haven’t had time to play it.</p>

<p>Dream Girl:
Intelligent, creative, athletic, open-minded, and passionate. Also has to be able to balance work and fun. As for appearance, I just have to personally find her beautiful if that makes sense. I probably forgot something, but thats the general idea.</p>

<p>As for talents I play saxophone and just started guitar, but I’m more of an athlete than a musician.</p>

<p>@Nashia I know what Suave means lol. I was asking in order to know why you were saying such thing lol. </p>

<p>@AeroCcongratulations! :)</p>

<p>I can’t wait to get rejected, then I can start smoking crack.</p>

<p>I’m gonna make a blog that’s called “**** Rivstein says”</p>

<p>@Ozzy You said you’d learn it if we both got in. I thought to myself, “Okay, I love that song. Now I’ll get to learn it on the guitar. Cool!” But, I put suave because I really like that word. And you seem pretty cool, so I thought it was good enough of an excuse to use it. Lbs</p>

<p>@2roads If he doesn’t reply by tomorrow, I’ll just give you his email. You have to remind me though; I don’t have the best memory.</p>

<p>@lovely right? I feel like a disgrace cause I can’t dance either :frowning: Prom is coming up so I don’t know what to do haha -____-</p>

<p>As for my dream girl:
Beautiful (in my eyes), intelligent, educated, Republican or Libertarian, devoted Christian, funny, ambitious, passionate, strong character, Star Wars fan, and a bunch of little things that don’t come to mind right now.</p>

<p>Ostruck: I’m half-Hispanic and I did MITES last year. And really, half-Hispanic counts for things, and not just MITES (i.e. college diversity numbers, etc).</p>

<p>@liveforscience well that’s encouraging! What did you think about MITES when you went?</p>

<p>@Nashia. Thanks for clearing that up! :slight_smile: </p>

<p>@Aero, that’s perfect! xD</p>

<p>I second the motion to make a blog titled “**** Rivstein Says”.
Also, I am willing to play an improvised duet with anyone who wishes to do so. ;D</p>

<p>Hoctopi, I’ll bring my guitar then! I love/hate planning this since we don’t even know whether we are in or not Dx</p>

<p>@Ozzy Very welcome.</p>

<p>All this talent is just amazing!</p>

<p>Is everyone going to junior prom?</p>

<p>@Hoctopi: Agreed. That would be a great blog, haha.</p>

<p>Also, I found this really cool summer apprenticeship program. I’d either be in a youth jazz ensemble or a non-fic. writers group for 6 weeks, learning from esteemed musicians/journalists … and I’d be getting paid $600. <em>Paid</em>. To learn how to play piano/sing better or write better. That’s insane. To make things better, the deadline is May 1st, so it’s way after we hear about MITES :)</p>

<p>Oh. That sounds pretty cool back up plan! </p>

<p>Yeah. I will most likely be going to prom. And even if I didn’t want to go, my friends would probably contrive some scheme to get me there. lbs</p>

<p>Does anyone have idea when acceptances/rejections are being mailed? It’s been so long since I applied to this, I almost forgot I applied until just now! I saw the thread! Has anyone heard any news yet?</p>

<p>The results are going to he most likely emailed to us around April 15 :(</p>
