<p>To an extent...I love being outside but I'm not a big fan of hikes, esp. in the winter...though I do like camping.</p>
<p>And piratemonkey, Quebec is a city and a province.</p>
<p>What's the most difficult writing assignment you've ever had?
My Swarthmore interviewer asked me that, I got totally baffled.</p>
<p>Considering that I had virtually no written assignments during high school... I'd have to say the supplemental essays! Disturbing, no?</p>
<p>What's your favorite meal ?</p>
<p>Home-cooked? Potato latkes!</p>
<p>Scrabble or Chess?</p>
<p>Scrabble by far.</p>
<p>Are you a dog person or a cat person (or an iguana or any other type of person)?</p>
<p>Yay Scrabble!</p>
<p>Hardcore dog person (I have a Lakeland terrier, best dogs EVER)! I love all animals except spiders, frightening insects and domestic cats.</p>
<p>What's one thing you love about Amherst (for me: LJST)?</p>
<p>Scrabble is awesome. Add the Scrabulous application on facebook, it's actually worthwhile.</p>
<p>The students. What is LJST?</p>
<p>And the open curriculum. Very handy.</p>
<p>Where do you want to live when you are older?</p>
<p>I love the Scrabulous app! I have yet to be beaten... LJST= Law, Jurisprudence and Social Thought, a major.</p>
<p>I want to live in NYC or London.</p>
<p>Beach vacation or sightseeing/adventure vacation?</p>
<p>Froghorn, is that a challenge? =p</p>
<p>I live 15 minutes away from NYC. I'd rather live in London, though I don't like cities that much. </p>
<p>Sightseeing/adventure, no questions asked. One of my favorite vacation adventures has been rappelling down a 215-foot tall waterfall in Costa Rica.</p>
<p>Horror movies, yea or nay?</p>
<p>YEA!</p>
<p>And that was a challenge! Where in CR did you go? it's one of my fav. countries. I loved Monteverde!</p>
<p>Mac or PC?</p>
<p>hmmm... i've always used PCs but for college I'm thinking I might try out a Mac. People say they don't have as many problems and if they created the iPod, they must be somewhat capable, right? Lol.</p>
<p>Quebec is not a city. Quebec City is a city... but there is no city just called Quebec. I love arguing :)</p>
<p>If Amherst (or whatever your favourite college is) accepts you, what are you going to do with all your other viewbooks, SAT prep books, etc? I know what I'm going to do but I'm just curious how creative you all are :)</p>
<p>I'm going to save them for next fall for my parents to use as kindling!</p>
<p>Opera or theatre?</p>
<p>Definitely theatre. I love alternative theatre a la Fringe Festival and adapting mainstream stories or plays to create interesting experimental pieces (I'm an IB Theatre student - is anyone else?). </p>
<p>Favourite non-fiction book?</p>
<p>Froghorn, I'll PM you my name on facebook. I've been looking for a good scrabulous game =)</p>
<p>And yay for horror movies! Any favorites?</p>
<p>Right now my favorite non fiction book would have to be The Scientist - A Metaphysical Autobiography by John C. Lilly. He was a counterculture neuroscientist who experimented with LSD in isolation tanks and dolphins. Awesomely interesting stuff.</p>
<p>Now, to be rather unoriginal, favorite fiction book/novel?</p>
<p>Oh, and I was in Santa Ana. It's more on the Pacific side. I didn't get to see Monteverde though :(</p>
<p>Why was this moved out of the AC thread??? THIS IS AN AMHERST DISCUSSION!</p>
<p>perhaps because it has nothing to do with amherst. just amherst applicants or students.</p>
<p>Oh well.</p>
<p>Cake or pie?</p>
<p>lol, i like your attitude
pie</p>
<p>lemon or lime?</p>
<p>lime AND lemon (like sprite!)</p>
<p>are going to prom this year?</p>
<p>No (I graduated last year, this is my PG year). Unless I get invited...</p>
<p>Lori, are you applying to Amherst (not that it matters, all are welcome)?</p>
<p>Ok... What is your fav. class you've taken in HS so far?</p>
