UChicago EA Applicants 2018

<p>omg if one more person calls it uic…</p>

<p>Whoa there Slytherin is my favorite house
I spend an unhealthy amount of time looking at the house descriptions on the UChicago website. They do have reputations it’s wonderful</p>

<p>i can’t get too attached to a house yet until i know which dorms are wheelchair accessible. i can, however, get attached to mansueto library</p>

<p>@ironchariot I wouldn’t say that I like Springsteen, I ADORE HIM. I can’t even quantify my respect and love for him. I make a Bruce Birthday Brownie every year to celebrate his birthday. When I get rejected he’ll be consoling me ;)</p>

<p>@angel nice, very nice. i’m a bit more partial to jimi hendrix and jim morrison, but any classic rock is good with me :slight_smile: we’ll have to share music if we both get in</p>

<p>Do any of you guys listen to the smiths?</p>

<p>@EnoughNerve Haha yes, this reminds me of the film ‘500 Days of Summer’ where Zooey Deschanel and Joe Gordon Levitt are in the elevator and they bond over the Smiths :)</p>

<p>Zooey Deschanel… Talk about a girl crush right there! Though I like St. Vincent a bit better…</p>

<p>Oh yes, Joseph Gordon-Levitt is pretty close to Tom Hiddleston in my adoring fan girl book. Did anyone see his movie Don Jon? </p>

<p>If so, I applaud you :wink: heh heh heh</p>

<p>“So please, please, please, let me, let me, let me, let me get what I want this time.”</p>

<p>Haven’t listened to their wider work, but you could say this has been on replay lately.</p>

<p>Quick questions, how do you guyz have time to keep up with all of that? I can’t even keep up with one show.</p>

<p>@omar I binge watch shows over the summer, and for current shows I just watch them over the weekends. </p>

<p>Hence my chronic procrastination.</p>

<p>@neotissue, I don’t do anything on weekends :(. That’s surely going to change if I get accepted. They took the swim test out :(.</p>

<p>I actually don’t watch much tv shows either <_< I’m more of a movie person…</p>

<p>and i hardly ever watch movies</p>

<p>I watch waaaaay more movies than TV shows. I only keep up with the vampire diaries, the originals, and agents of shields. Some family guy and community here and there. Mostly I binge watch entire tv series and 3-5 movies at a time. I love me some cinema :D</p>

<p>@EnoughNerve I love The Smiths’ music (I’ve had “Ask” on repeat for the past hour)! Have you read Morrissey’s autobiography yet?</p>

<p>Heck yes, Joseph Gordon-Levitt is the best thing since the invention of snl! (And in my drama-nerd book that says a lot haha.) I’m taking a year off so I have more free time to devote to obsessively watching sketch comedy and monty python movies to distract myself from the sense of impending doom that comes from waiting for callbacks. I haven’t read Morrissey’s book yet, but I’m dying to get my hands on it! Unfortunately my town is so small and hippy-filled we only have specialty bookstores, so it’s sometimes hard to get new releases. Have you read it?</p>

<p>@Omar My social life revolves around it, haha. I love going downtown to all these quirky movie theatres and shops and of course, the record store. As for TV, its pretty much my best friend. Whenever I feel down, I sit myself down on the couch and begin a marathon of classic movies on AMC or something like that. I could talk about film and TV for dayssssss! </p>

<p>@neontissues I’m into cinema too! My favorites include Annie Hall, Little Miss Sunshine, Once, etc. etc. If we get in we are definitely having movie parties! We have a film club at my school, its wonderful! We watch and then discuss</p>

<p>hey, I know I’m joining in this awesome conversation a little bit late but- time difference, ugh.
@impressionistic I have that song on repeat too! Its painfully elongating my days waiting for decisions but I just cant turn it off. It reminds of all the UChicago awesomeness that I wish I could have :confused:
@enoughnerve haha, I love your Lavender Brown- Ron analogy for UChicago. I feel like that too!
I binge watch tv shows, turns out I’ve lost the patience to sit through movies. Its just so difficult. I know I’m gonna be having a tv show marathon when our decisions come out because its going to be around 2:30 am over here when they do (that’s assuming they go up at 4 pm)
But then again, i may just watch movies and try to branch out :stuck_out_tongue: anyone up for posting some suggestions?</p>

<p>Is there anyone else who hasn’t applied ED anywhere at all?</p>
