<p>i'm not trying to bash him. in general, i'm just wondering why people wait that long. I'll admit it. i'm a procrastinator... but not that bad. lol</p>
<p>Mahsa, are you Persian?</p>
<p>The_Who: Sunny Hills High School, in Fullerton, Southern California; why?</p>
<p>... Slorg, you should've spent those 16 hours brainstorming back in September. Or October. Not Novemeber 28.</p>
<p>I started thinking of ideas and writing first drafts for my essays (except for my prompt #1 essay) since July. True, I haven't touched my essays all of September and half of October, but I realized back during summer that school would consume me, so I started early.</p>
<p>Well. G'luck to those who... still need to finish the UC app. o.o</p>
<p>u guys dont understand that he knows that he procrastinated and he was the dumb ass in doing that????? no need to rub into his face.</p>
<p>nikkei: no, why do u ask?</p>
<p>I know one too many Persian Mahsas, that is why. I figured it was clear that you are Persian from your name but I was wrong. What ethnicity are you?</p>
<p>:P I'm a procrastinator to a degree too, but I just think that once you go over a certain threshold, you're open to all criticism and mockery cause it's ridiculous. I mean, when I cross that line, I just take what people say, caue I know it's true. I spent all night last night helping Mr. King-of-BS do his application, because he hadn't started until a few days ago, and made fun of him/rubbed it in the whole time.</p>
<p>are servers up or down now?
hmmm letsee</p>
<p>I'm Russian actually</p>
<p>oh nice, they're still up.</p>
<p>how many % of applicants do you guys think haven't submitted yet?</p>
<p>i would say a good 15%</p>
<p>The_Who, are you being generous with that estimate? ;)</p>
<p>Really? Most of the kids at my school submitted last week. Of course, our counselors pressured us into it.</p>
<p>yes. to be honest i would say a 30%. how about u?</p>
<p>I would say close to 20%, most of them being high school students.</p>
<p>o_o Being naive me, I was thinking <5%.</p>
<p>I say 8% cuz its not that laggy at alll unlike yesterday where ALL of california tried to apply . . . :)</p>
<p>yesterday was definitely worse</p>
<p>Haha, yea. Then I guess I don't get to have my bit of fun; I think c/o 2006 realized/learned from/heard from c/o 2005 that UC server went down for them on the last day, so everyone did it the day before instead.
Haha.</p>
<p>Disappointing, but good job, c/o 2006, I guess.</p>
