Tasp 2007

<p>Lanky, at my boarding school, connecting to outside servers is banned, so I can't get onto AIM OR IRC. My life sucks.</p>

<p>I'll PM you them though.</p>

<p>Billy, I'll take you up on the offer, but we should exchange comments on content, right? =O</p>

<p>Oh man I would exchange essays but I think mine suck too much -_- I'm somewhat embarrassed about them, especially on this forum. This forum drains me of all self-esteem quite often, I'm afraid.</p>

<p>And yes! I seriously hope we all make it...that would be...amazing. OMG wouldn't it be hilarious if everybody was from CC? So first day, it'd be like...an exchange of CC sns. Haha. Fun. Excitement. :(</p>

<p>I really would like to exchange essays but I figure I have more editing of my own to do before I should allow my essays to be subjected to the elite standards of CCers.</p>

<p>And yes, I have a feeling that the exchanging of SNs will happen regardless at the TASPs. It's been said to have happened in previous TASPs. Heh.</p>

<p>i'm fine with exchanging essays (and i think there are a bunch of you who have them already), but it might take me a day or two to get back to you. with that being said, feel free to pm me for my email if you want me to read your essays, but i might not be able to send you back comments before the tasp deadline (besides taggart, because i already said i would). </p>

<p>good luck to everyone who hasn't applied yet! </p>

<p>and iriseyes, you remind me of someone i know. although she goes to a prep school in baltimore, and i think you said you go to school in massachusetts. or was that not you? sometimes i think i remember things that i fabricated in my mind somehow... weird. signs of a pathological liar to be......... lol!</p>

<p>btw i sent you an email back, billy! =)</p>

<p>iriseyes - meebo.com</p>

<p>that's what my friend who goes to private school uses to get on aim</p>

<p>^^ I second that!</p>

<p>AIM express works on ours too :P</p>

<p>AIM express is amazing. :D</p>

<p>What we tell you Nate. you get hooked on this CC stuff :-P</p>

<p>Corey is dead yet again from lacrosse. :-/</p>

<p>I really want to read essays. Nothing to over my little sophomore head though....No Tachikoskivksky (not the russian romantic composer, that is a random Russian dude I made up.) Also Justin, I want to read that one essay again I <3 progress....that is if you have worked on that one. :-P</p>

<p>I guess I would be willing to send my essays if anyone really wants to see them. Unlike most I'm not disgraced by my essays, I'm actually really happy with them. They might not be CC quality but they are some of my best writing I have done.</p>

<p>Also considering I'm TASSer I'm A) Done. B) Have different prompts so y'all cant copy me :-P</p>

<p>Just PM me or something.
:D</p>

<p><3 <3 <3 <3 procrastinate!</p>

<p>I just posted my stats on the "chance me" board. I'm prepared to be lambasted.</p>

<p>Will any college appreciate my bizarre life story and even more bizarre extracurrics and transcript? T_T</p>

<p>Oh, for the love of...meebo.com is blocked by the firewall!</p>

<p>Someone get me out of this nunnery! T____T</p>

<p>(I'd be long gone if it weren't for all the smart people who go here...beating them in the ranks makes my heart go thump. =3 )</p>

<p>Lol. Cast them in bronze iris. (Old school star wars style....)</p>

<p>Wait your the jewelery one...Correct</p>

<p>Correct. =D</p>

<p>...I probably should have emphasized the jewelry more in my essays. I just mentioned them briefly, 'cause I didn't want to write a whole essay on it. Maybe it's such a weird tantilizing fact that they'll call me for an interview just to hear about it, not to admit me, and then I shall dazzle them with my wit and good social skills and be admitted....</p>

<p>...it's a long shot.</p>

<p>LOL. btw your email was like ... a bunch of letters and numbers all dancing aroun. like "2pidjflasdf38945935709340598kdfsd;kjk". O_O</p>

<p>lol, that's what susan said too. >_>;;;</p>

<p>I'll try again on my excellent (not school) laptop.</p>

<p>Going out geek style, I bought an Alienware this summer. =O</p>

<p>yep, what did i tell you, i left at page 129
come back on page 129 + 7 -_-'</p>

<p>i did alright on my finals today, id love to read anyone's essays, i already mailed my application, just pm me</p>

<p>the nate/dylan thing was very funny </p>

<p>and hi iriseyes! :]</p>

<p>haha. Anything is a possibility with the admission process.
Aida said she got an interview with 5 essays sent in....
We can only speculate on our chances....</p>

<p>Lol What are my chances for TASP:</p>

<p>Asian Male from California (I wrote that I was from Jamaica Queens, NY...Basically a suburb of the Bay Area)</p>

<p>240 PSAT</p>

<p>Amazing Rec</p>

<p>4.0 UweightedGPA</p>

<p>8.0 WeightedGPA (grade inflation much...)</p>

<p>MY essays were all pretty solid.</p>

<p>I wrote my conflict essay on picking between APChem and APBio this year....Resolution was to take both</p>

<p>My Issue topic was on affirmative action and how it is the devil as it gives kids that are far inferior to me the chance to get into schools they don't deserve when I should be in there shoes</p>

<p>I Am the president of 5 clubs. Including KEY, INTERACT and CSF (3 California service clubs that are basically identical)</p>

<p>I like long walks on the beach..... OH woops didn't mean that</p>

<p>I also wrote my future plans essay detailing all the classes im going to take at Harvard, including Graduate program.</p>

<p>And my book list was 15 pages...6pt font.</p>

<p>I know its pretty weak but be honest....What are my chances???</p>

<p>Oh yea and UTA was my first choice, I wrote in my rankings that my superior science intellect will give me much advantages in this seminar.</p>

<p>Thanks!!!!</p>

<p>LOL corey! hahahaaha.</p>

<p>okay. i'm really panicking right now. >_<</p>

<p>i was originally going to do my lit analysis on animal farm and had two possible topics.</p>

<p>one i realized that what i was doing was not arguable (animal farm = soviet union)</p>

<p>the other was contrasting 1984, but i couldn't figure out how to structure it. and someone else is already doing it.</p>

<p>so with all that aside, do you think i can write about a book i read for school? we didn't discuss it much in class and i found an aspect of it that i can base my argument off of.</p>

<p>i try :-P</p>

<p>LOL, thats hilarious, but seriously, what is up with the long walks on the beach part?</p>
