<p>well technically we need to look at define the color manilla, and then based on that through pigment and other tests on the envelopes will we be able to determine if the envelopes are satisfactory to the terms of the TA</p>
<p>...because if the instructions aren't followed word for word, they'll toss the whole application without opening it.</p>
<p>Well, that's why they refused to accept excuses along the lines of, "It was Martin Luther King day!!""</p>
<p>Lawl! =]</p>
<p>Everyone calm down!! I'm sure they aren't as anal retentive as we all are!</p>
<p>lol. They did extend the TASS app. deadline past MLK Day. Hmm... Of course I found this out after I sent my stuff in :(</p>
<p>lol, anal-retentive. did you know that the term was derived from freud's psychosexual theory where the child gets pleasure from bowel movements? fixation on anal control. in other words, holding in feces.</p>
<p>Aww giantredlobster, that's a bummer.</p>
<p>But look on the bright side, now you have time to enjoy a weekend, instead of cramming in essays!</p>
<p>:) bright side > not bright side :D</p>
<p>Dang this thread moves fast. Do you guys like, not have school? lol.</p>
<p>I also am wondering about assembling my application. It states, "Make three copies each of the two page app and the essays... blah blah... then fasten the pages of the two copies of your application with paper clips."</p>
<p>How should the copies be? Like, two separate little paperclipped bundles, each with one copy of app + one set of essays?</p>
<p>hahaha Corey, that's too funny about the TASS thing. I wondered why its original deadline was before TASP's deadline...</p>
<p>yes, separate paperclipped bundles</p>
<p>im mailing my transcript and rec today, but im overnighting it.</p>
<p>im doing the online app</p>
<p>will 2 days be a problem</p>
<p>Correct me if I'm wrong but does it not say you CAN NOT EMAIL OR FAX YOUR APPLICATION.</p>
<p>This would make sense, especially with your transcript and rec. letter. After all they are suppose to be confidential and you scanning them in sort of voids that.</p>
<p>^ Who are you talking to?</p>
<p>Thanks bre.</p>
<p>And guess what guys, I found a new way to waste time. I just spent half an hour finding an appropriate "recognizable photo" of myself, shrinking it, cropping it, and trying to print it without looking like I had a severe sunburn.</p>
<p>huh?</p>
<p>i said im mailing my transcript and rec today. even thought the due date is the 15th because i couldnt get it in time.</p>
<p>i am doing the online application through their webstie. im not emailing or faxing it</p>
<p>Oh ok. Just making sure. How you wrote it sounded like you were emailing those 2 components.</p>
<p>If you live anywhere other than Hawaii you better get to the post office quick :-) because its closing.</p>
<p>OH I need to take that picture of myself.</p>
<p>Hmmm...LOL wouldn't it be funny if they analyzed our pictures too?</p>
<p>I have to decide how to wear my hair, what funny facial expression to make, what clothes I should wear....</p>
<p>lol actually i have to mail it tommorow now because i realized my teacher forgot to formally sign the rec.</p>
<p>=///////////</p>
<p>im probably already screwed</p>
<p>haha tako, I didn't even think of that. I settled on one with the Eiffel tower in the background. Maybe that will make them think I'm an interesting person.</p>
<p>or that you like the french.</p>
<p>Well that is one of my main interests... XD</p>
<p>hmmmmmm. i wonder when's the latest i can hand it in on monday.</p>
<p>^^ That might not necessarily be a good thing (the liking the french part)</p>
<p>I think I'll have a photoshoot!</p>
<p><em>me in gansta pose - looking for diversity, y0</em></p>
<p><em>me in asian fobby pose - again, looking for diversity peace sign!</em></p>
<p><em>me with arms crossed looking tough - TASP needs a few bullies</em></p>
<p><em>me smiling so big my eyes are nonexistant - conveys my optimism for life</em></p>
<p><em>me not</em> in the picture :D I'M INVISIBLE, that's how deep I am.</p>
<p><em>me stroking chin staring off into the distance, showing what a thoughtful person I am</em></p>
<p><em>me glaring at camera, conveying my intensity and passion to be in this program</em></p>
<p><em>me being normal - TASP REJECT</em></p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>The one I chose will fall under the last category, unfortunately >_<</p>
