<p>"laife is laike a bawx of chocolaetes..you never naw what choo gon get"</p>
<p>was that a cliche before or after forrest gump.</p>
<p>claim to fame: will ferrell. my friend's mom is his godmother. and vice versa. other one...nation's "safest" city. HA. not while my mastermind still works. dona corleone (VIII)....</p>
<p>So... who's visited already? Going to visit? Won't visit until after apps?</p>
<p>I'm visiting in a couple of weeks!</p>
<p>I've visited twice. The second time it was very humid and hot outside, so the only thing on my mind as I was taking the tour was how to take the shady paths without disrespecting the tour guide. Maybe for that reason I like Princeton better in the spring than in the summer. The first time I went the cherry blossoms and magnolias had just come out and they were absolutely breathtaking, especially inside the little residential courtyards.</p>
<p>Name: Canaday Madman
Interests: Government, law, writing, ruling the world, the usual
Possible major at Princeton: I'm gonna try for the Woodie Wilson school, being a Government and law nerd. Otherwise, I'd just major in Government.
Home state: California (groan)...capitol of the pop culture liberals...and here I am, a pro-choice Republican
Religion: Atheist</p>
<p>On a sidenote, I visited Princeton a couple of weeks ago and was given a customized tour by my cousin, who's going to be a junior there. It was gorgeous, but very humid. </p>
<p>Also applying to (should Princeton defer me):
Harvard University (Reach. Kind of tied with Princeton for favorite, but Princeton has a better undergraduate education quality and I REALLY want to go to Harvard Law school)
Brown University (Reach.)
Georgetown University (Reach-ish Match.)
Columbia University (See Georgetown)
Swarthmore College (Match)
Cornell University (Match)
Three yet-to-be-determined schools whose statistics won't scare my overpessimistic mother</p>
<p>Nice to be joining all of you</p>
<p>welcome, Canaday Madman! :)</p>
<p>I visited once and i'm visiting again in a few weeks, but i've been there tons of times for soccer games and track meets (i'm only 45 minutes away, lol!)</p>
<p>Hey, I'm Letitia (Le-tish-a) kinda rhymes with dish? (not le-ti-ti-a, as I've often heard my name pronounced)...mmm, I go to a relatively large school in no. VA. I enjoy running, ice cream, and pasta. eh...school... haha. good luck all you ED-ers</p>
<p>Mmm, I've visited...maybe every year of my life since I could remember. Just can't miss those parades...</p>
<p>Hi, Letitia! (Yay! A Virginian! How many states are we representing now?) Will you be joining our ED family?</p>
<p>Letitia - I love your name!!! :D</p>
<p>haha, family? sure ;)</p>

<p>Name: Josh X
Interests: International Relations, Econ, Government, a bit of history (though I despise memorizing timelines), Neuro and Cognitive sciences.
Possible major at Princeton: I'm going to ATTEMPT a major at econ, but will probably fail miserably because I'm far from stellar at math. Other than that, I'd probably focus on IR and go Woodie Woo, with maybe a minor in something "practical" like finance or bio.
Home state: New York
Political Ideology: Republican libertarian, fiscal disciplinarian. However, in terms of Foreign Policy, I find myself predominantly an unlikely and paradoxical combination of Neo-Liberal and Neo-Conservative (hard to explain, e-mail me if you want to know more).
Religion: Atheist
Favorite Movies: Fight Club, Harold and Kumar, The Insider, anything by Zhang Yi Mou (The Road Home, Hero, House of Flying Daggers), Kill Bill Vol. 1 (hated Vol. 2). Errr... I think that's it folks. Oh yeah... Finding Neverland was touching. As a guy, I must admit I cried (just a bit!) at the last scene with Depp and the kid in the park. <em>tear</em>
Favorite Books: 1984, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Choke, The Great Gatsby, Lullaby, Siddartha, Demian, White Noise.
EC's: Prez of Model UN (mad MUN freak), prez of JSA, opinion editor of school newspaper, Amnesty International treasurer. Did some amateur filmmaking sophomore and junior years, which was fun. </p>
<p>Also applying to:
Harvard University
Brown University
Georgetown University
Cornell University
U Chicago
McGill, Queens, U of T (what I'd like to call my "Canadian Safety-Match Trio")
Dartmouth
Possibly PENN if I like my visit there</p>
<p>Name: Mark
Interests: biking, running, math, piano, sax, chess, bball, doing college apps (actually, not really)
Major: Math?
EC: Math, band, CC, track, chess, schol. bowl
Applying:
Pton (not likely)
Duke
UofI Champaign
MIT
UChicago
Berkeley</p>
<p>BTW, what if none of us actually get in?</p>
<p>Haha don't worry -- it won't happen. A little over a third of us will, if you look at the statistics on older CC ED roster threads. =)</p>
<p>asiaknight i didn't have my glasses and i thought you put sex instead of sax. since you're a guy though...</p>
<p>Did I put sax? I meant sex.</p>
<p>lol to people who've seen the app already... I'm worried, I don't see a space for an optional "Anything Else?" essay. :(</p>
