<p>I'm so not missing the next TASP chat. At least I hope.</p>

<p>I was reading the 2006 TASP thread and I was so amused. Our thread is WAY COOLER, but aside from that, I saw so many of the same questions. Heck, I can even draw parallels between certain people. :D It was so strange, reading the thread from beginning to end, knowing some of the people that got in. <em>shakes head</em> Anyway. Oh MAN. I seriously, seriously, SERIOUSLY hope they let me do interviews. <em>crosses fingers, eyes, and toes</em></p>

<p>Yanners: OH MY GOD. Your photography is AWESOME. I also have a DeviantART account, though I never update and it sucks. You should enter the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards next year!! <a href="http://www.artandwriting.org%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.artandwriting.org&lt;/a> </p>

<p>There are some people here I hope get into TASP SO MUCH. Wah. Good luck. <3 <3</p>

<p>To answer DC, all of the above. ^_^</p>

<p>The essays are mainly read by those that live in the Telluride Houses, too, methinks. I could be wrong.</p>

<p>I'd interview in PR and by phone, in any case. Sigh.</p>

1603

<p>aida, I hope we ALL get into tasp.</p>

1604

<p>LOL, if only the telluride people can see this thread, they would know how hardcore we are</p>

1605

<p>EVEN ME!</p>

<p>lol, jk, obviously.</p>

<p>Well, EH. I've seen some people here that seem more interested in what TASP can do to help them get into college and how good it looks on their applications, so I can't say everyone. But still. A fair bunch of you seem genuine. :)</p>

<p>inkspill,</p>

<p>I believe you sent me your essays. (Your first name starts and ends with 'a'?). Check your e-mail i sent you a response.</p>

<p>edit: Never mind I see you got them. Haha stream of consciousness was what i was aiming for. Faulkner anyone?</p>

1607

<p>yeah, fyi everyone: DirectorCut's essays are really good. yeah....</p>

1608

<p>inkspill's essays would draw teardrops from chuck norris' eyes...many teardrops...</p>

1609

<p>Aida - parallels?</p>

1610

<p>I was wondering, for the essay that asks
"What are your plans and objectives for future education? If you have specific career possibilities in mind, discuss what has influenced your choice."</p>

<p>Do we need to write a real essay for this one? or is it more like a short answer type of thing?</p>

<p>please let me know!</p>

1611

<p>OMG I have now finished two essays.</p>

<p>YES.</p>

1612

<p>I am done, but I CANNOT press the submit button!</p>

1613

<p>can anyone send me their essay? aim=zachsta830</p>

1614

<p>DO IT! DO IT! DO IT!</p>

<p>I believe in you Ken :)</p>

1615

<p>btw, how long is the future education essay supposed to be?</p>

1616

<p>I finally mailed my application! WHOOO! I also had my mom take pictures of me dropping the envelope in the blue mailbox, so its all documented!<br>
I must say, it feels LIBERATING to have it all in, although I have to constantly stop myself from going back and rereading my essays. I know that if I do, I'll find a million little things that are still wrong with it. <em>sigh</em></p>

1617

<p>It should be about 4 pages single spaced 10pt font.</p>

<p>Also Directorscut you will never turn it in mwahhhhahaha</p>

<p>^^Hmmm bit.chy corey is no fun</p>

<p>Zachsta there is no real designated length, If your was mroe than 2 pages that would be to much, but its not like there is a 400 word limit or something. Just be clear and consise, no need to ramble about your future its gonna change anyways. :-)</p>

<p>Director I would be fliping out right now if i were you. GL</p>

1618

<p>Inkspill YAY!!!!</p>

<p>God taking the pictures is so awesome. Post it ASAP!!!</p>

1619

<p>YAY! i finished my book list and my future education essay! oh and im applying by mail, lol...</p>

1620

<p>haha yea zachsta/sinkingstones, 2 pages max is a good standard, dont wry about it though</p>

<p>ahh director, i feel for you >.< refresh browser? restart?</p>

<p>inkspill, i totally empathize, my moms always like "stop wasting time admiring your essays!! you submitted them already" more like mind-bashing on my essays >.<</p>
