<p>Maybe you could attach a picture. Hm, I was thinking maybe you could copy and paste the picture to your essay. But you would have to see how the picture would comeout in the pdf. file first. It was suck to omit the detail and then be stuck with an error message as a picture. Just a thought.</p>
<p>I, however, wrote an essay in school so I'm editing it for the second question about something someone has said or done. It's basically about my bilingual experience. Nothing as humanitarian like chillaxin. :] But since I'm majoring in a language I thought it would be fitting. And meaningful. It's just deciding which part was more meaningful. XD The language or what got me to the language?</p>
<p>i think what got you to the language would be good because it is about you, and I think they would have questions behind their mind to <i>why</i> you love the language. Just my half a cent.</p>
<p>But it's the best half a cent I've recieved! I don't think I really looked at it as a why. That will make rewriting so much easier. I'm hoping to go through Questbridge. <2 (An organization that helps low-income families, if you didn't know). I didn't know that Stanford would partner this year, so I was on the fence. </p>
<p>I'm soo excited. I want to complete the application and know like a day later. I'll be stalking the mailman or my email. Or both! What are you writing about Choboking?</p>
<p>lol its nothing much just about an experience i had while shadowing an anesthesiologist and my own personal experience with surgery (i bet they get tired of reading these types of essays.) nothing big compared to chillaxin and you lol. i'm sure you gonna do well De2, looking at how enthusiastic you are lol.</p>
<p>So... I've finally decided that I want to apply to Stanford SCEA. And I second Choboking's comment about being ridiculously nervous, but deciding it's all about fate. If I don't get in, I guess it wasn't meant to be, right?</p>
<p>So where are you all applying to regular action? Right now, I'm thinking I'll also apply to Columbia, UPenn, Univ of South Cal, Syracuse, and Fordham... but that's definately subject to change. lol.</p>
<p>Your essay isn't common Choboking. It's what you make of it. I think I'm applying to Pomona too. I'm embarrassed that I only have two schools. Although I'm not encouraged by almost every student rejoicing about drinking.</p>
<p>Choboking, have you ever heard about that guy who wrote an amazing essay [that got him into Harvard] about helping an old woman walk across the street? A huge part of it is about how you tackle the essay itself and not the topic. Personally, I think your topic's fantastic (I've never heard of anyone shadowing an anesthesiologist).</p>
<p>I'm looking into tons of colleges (sad, sad) right now, but I'll definitely by applying to UCs, Yale, and Rice. The rest are all at least somewhat on the fence. We'll see how things go. No Pomona for me though. :] There's actually this girl from my school who got into both Pomona and Stanford and turned Stanford down to go to Pomona.</p>
<p>And I, like a bunch of other CCers here, am incredibly nervous about college apps, though I think it'll really start hitting me around early December.</p>
<p>That would be awesome! It would be like "WOW You're ____ <----(insert username)!" At least we would know someone on campus. Because we should all be able to get in, if the time is right and we believe we can.</p>
<p>i think we should exchange AIM, nonetheless lol. i mean we are gonna be stressing out on Dec 14th, so why not stress together. and if we are doing all-nighters, why not? lol</p>
<p>lol im with you on that chillaxin. you should use some of your prearrange absences =) ~ that way we won't have the same day like avalon (having ambitious stuff planned)</p>
<p>Omg, I'll be just like Avalon. XD But we seriously should keep in contact. I really need to fine tune my essay but...procrastination! I have all this summer work that's due next week. GAH!</p>
<p>Ah, tis-true. Hm, we need something off-topic to talk about! How about AP exams? XD I got a 3 on my Ap Lang. Blah, I wasn't too happy about that but at least I passed.</p>
