<p>Guys, we've all submitted our ED applications, whether through mail or through the internet, through the common application or the Princeton application. We've poured our hearts into our applications in hopes of conveying to Princeton the most vivid and compelling portrait of ourselves. Many of us have spent months writing essays, asking for recommendations, and just simply stressing out. But now that we have clicked that submit button and mailed out those thick envelopes, we enter 6 weeks where we anxiously wait for an equally thick envelope to come back to us.</p>

<p>How will YOU pass the time?</p>

2

<p>FFXII, Wii, and trying very hard to keep away from my old addiction to World of Warcraft. Oh and school of course.</p>

<p>CC!!! duhhh. so you guys better entertain me. hibernation sounds good too though. i'm also going to start running more even though cross country ended. maybe pull out the gameboy.. movie nights with my sister... sleeping a lot hopefully.. reading ... anndd yeah school i guess</p>

8

<p>ap lit is hard for me. i just struggle with poetry lol...</p>

<p>im already preparing a funeral for my 4.0 :p</p>

9

<p>AP Lit Poetry == Doom. Back to my 10pg paper on selected works of Robert Lowell.</p>

10

<p>weird. in my ap lit class we aren't doing poetry. at least not yet. we just read crime & punishment which was amazing, and now we're going to read wuthering heights which i've already read and which is also amazing. have you guys read some novels yet?</p>

11

<p>currently reading C&P</p>

12

<p>Read Heart of Darkness, Wuthering Heights (not fun), and we're reading Was now.</p>

13

<p>Read A Streetcar Named Desire, (I know, I know, a play, not a novel) A Room with a View (wonderful!), Sons & Lovers, and currently reading Beloved (also wonderful!).</p>

14

<p>lol bltesgirl are u using the past tense of "read"? like are you telling me to read it, or are you saying you it in lit class?</p>

15

<p>lol...past tense.
how annoying is english...command, past, and present form of "read" are all spelled the same freaking way!
i wish everything were as simple as spanish...:)</p>

16

<p>haha.. yeah i love spanish it's so clear. too bad i couldn't take AP spanish this year because AP physics was taught at the same time, and both were only taught that one class :( .. trying to learn it anyway though. i really love reading spanish. i want to try reading harry potter in spanish or something
aww man arbiter i love wuthering heights. heart of darkness was pretty cool too. we are starting anglo-saxon stuff now + wuthering heights.</p>

17

<p>ya im taking ap spanish.</p>

<p>tough, but i love a good challenge~ :D</p>

18

<p>actually i think i like latin better, which i am actually doing right now... test tomorrow! it is so nice and structured</p>

19

<p>Latin is for the cool kids. In fact, my quote for my Princeton essay was in latin :P</p>

<p>And Wuthering Heights wasn't so bad, but I just felt it was so much inferior to Jane Eyre that I had trouble making myself grind through it. We're reading The Importance of Being Earnest next, so I'm looking forward to that.</p>
