<p>I don't know...I like all of this enthusiasm. It's much more constructive to be highly detail-oriented and concerned about the accuracy/efficiency of our decisions template than to be freaking out about what we did/did not do on our applications.</p>
<p>Is it OK with everyone that I start it? I would really like to...but if anybody has some huge objection then...I don't know, I don't want to be presumptuous.</p>
<p>And whoamg, that sounds good. I'll probably start it Wednesday evening.</p>
<p>no, I definitely think you should :) ... like jon314 said, you've been around the longest and have been the most devoted poster; it only makes sense</p>
<p>(and no, I totally haven't spent all of my spring break so far in front of the computer posting on College Confidential... I just coincidentally happen to be at the computer everytime a reply is posted to a thread I'm subscribed to; I do have a life, honestly... ;) :eek:)</p>
<p>Haha it's OK. I stopped trying to pretend that I'm not obsessed with the Princeton forum a long time ago, or perhaps, a week ago, although it was apparent to everybody else a long time before that.</p>
<p>Does anybody else feel weird when they "venture" out into other school forums? I just feel like I'm travelling in unfriendly places when I post on other Ivy forums.</p>
<p>No, I just think it shows, somehow, that you're not a computer person. Isn't that right?</p>
<p>What??
I'm not a computer person?
I'm not at all...the only time I'm ever on the computer is to talk online and I guess CC. But...I'm confused. To whom/what are you referring jimbob?</p>
<p>I've noticed from your posts that you navigate CC as if it were a real social place. Forum loyalties? Deliberating about who ought to start a thread? Lol.
It's not a criticism; just something I notice with some CC posters. I myself just hit New Posts at the top and click away at the threads whose titles interest me.</p>
<p>Um, I guess you are mallomarcookie, because I searched the stat profiles for those with high scores who tend to apply to a few of the same universities.</p>
<p>Yeah, I guess it's pretty lame that we have forum loyalties and we talk about stuff like that, but I think that we are friends here...to the extent that you can be friends on an online forum. It's maybe kinda weird, but I personally don't have any real-life friends (or, not more than one) who applied to Ivies and there isn't really anybody to talk to about any of this stuff. So yeah...I don't know. Does it...bother you?</p>
<p>It doesn't bother me, because this is an internet discussion forum. I think there's some irony in that answer lol.</p>
<p>Mike, how'd you manage to search stats profiles? I don't have one on this account.</p>
<p>I saw posts in UChicago and Princeton forums, I knew you had a collegevisit of chicago. I also knew you applied EA to Yale, and I'm not sure but I think you go deferred. I looked at the deferred with a high SAT score at yale, and the highest one was MallomarCookie. I also did notice that you didn't have a stats profile, and I noticed that MallomarCookie has 5 CC names, on another thread.</p>
<p>Nice nice.</p>
<p>why do you have 5 names?</p>
<p>Yeah...I'm curious about that too. And you're a girl, right?
I'm sorry, it seems a bit weird to me that you would have "multiple online identities." I mean, I know it's just a college forum and it doesn't mean anything...but...why?</p>
<p>I don't have anything against cluttering the interweb.</p>
<p>That may be so...but it just doesn't make sense. I know that not everyone on here is 'real' and not everybody tells the truth, but to be perfectly honest I really am truthful about everything I put on CC and I don't understand the point or value of lying. If you (or anybody) finds that fun, that's your perogative, but I just don't get it.</p>
<p>The truth is the whole point. Sometimes I feel that I have revealed too much about myself, so I make more usernames to cover my tracks. I just brought this one back for kicks.</p>
<p>Ahh. Alright. Well...OK. To each her own.</p>
<p>MallomarCookie/jimbob is a girl? O<em>O I guess I'm really really bad at guessing gender and personas online. Ah well, for all you guys know, I could be a Princeton admissions officer who is counting the hours you guys are spending here and not doing productive academic things that people we want to accept are doing. ></em>></p>
<p>Hahaha. You are also making awesome decision templates in-between stamping files with big red REJECTS and filling envelopes with Princeton-colored confetti for those "special kids" (like us ;)).</p>
<p>This year, because Harry Potter is coming to our school, we decided to model the rejection letters off of howlers. Our engineering department put in 40kW speakers (that's part of the reason why we charge $65 per application... the rest goes to starbucks) into each rejection envelope with a bright red letter, guaranteed to convey the message. Plus, the rejected applicants will learn to hate crimson, so we've effectively stopped them from going to harvard as well. Our plans next year involve sending bulldogs to bite those accepted to Yale.</p>
<p>...I really hope I'm not rejected now >_></p>
