UChicago EA Applicants 2018

<p>@debater no more talking about it. let’s talk about cookies instead. what’s everyone’s favorite? i like oreos, oatmeal raisin, and peanut butter</p>

<p>wow congrats neon!</p>

<p>thanks iron! i’m so excited i am most definitely unable to read wuthering heights now :smiley: :smiley: :D</p>

<p>I literally love you guys. My friend is applying to Georgetown but her stats are relatively low for G-town. I told her that applying ED would give her a better chance but noooo don’t listen to Alexis. Reed College is my #2</p>

<p>Same lol
@thebigred14</p>

<p>@debater it was a bit more of a joke than a real question, but alright. I just finished my tennis practice and came here and saw the current subject so I assumed it was slightly recent.</p>

<p>@neon that’s so awesome! Congratulations, and all that jazz! Truly happy for you (:</p>

<p>@iron I’m a bit of a health nut because I participate in three Varsity Sports and happen to captain to three teams so I don’t really indulge cookies or anything in the yummy department. Sometimes being an example for others is a bit of a pain…but I am guilty of the occasional Ritz cracker.</p>

<p>This time in 74 hours we’ll know if we made uchicago. how awesome is that?</p>

<p>Oh an also my friend’s sister makes really good oatmeal cookies so that’s definitely my weak spot whenever she makes them.</p>

<p>I leave this thread for like 10 minutes and there are pages to read through. This is a testament to something. I’m not sure what, but something.</p>

<p>My thoughts exactly Debater. And congrats neon, that’s amazing! Carter, Georgetown actually has a lower EA acceptance rate than RD, and a lot of people say you actually have a better chance applying RD…something I’ve been thinking a lot about myself lately…so I don’t think your friend hurt her chances.</p>

<p>And peanut butter chocolate chip. Yum.</p>

<p>thanks everyone! </p>

<p>@debater i think it’s a testament to how good we are at keeping conversation on an awkward and uncomfortable blind date </p>

<p>i love all cookies and baked goods and waffles and ijgaoijgaoiejfafdna food
i do gymnastics so i should probably eat healthy but ermahgerd sugar</p>

<p>@debater testament to our awesomeness of course
@footies <em>gapes in shock</em> you don’t eat sweets? IMy sweet tooth is much too big. I don’t know whether to beg you to teach me your healthy ways or give you a pitying look over my bowl of icecream :)</p>

<p>testament to our obsessive uchicago related internet usage more likely</p>

<p>HI so I’ve definitely been stalking this thread and the rest of the UChicago board for a while now but I haven’t said anything… I thought maybe I should because you guys seem really awesome and just the mere possibility of being able to go to school with such people is exciting!
I’ve never been good at introductions but I feel like I should kinda make one so, here goes nothing: I’m anxiously awaiting the D (I wanted to say that mostly for how amusing it sounds) like all of you. Fellow senior in the midst of the crazy college admissions process. I’m a nerd, and as my username suggests, I associate with John Green’s definition of being a nerd-- I like things. Haha. Um… I watch a lot of indie movies on Netflix?</p>

<p>welcome fangirl!</p>

<p>Welcome fangirl! Now, I have to ask because of your name…what are your feelings on Tumblr and Tom Hiddleston?</p>

<p>@debater I know exactly how you feel. I’ve been on my phone this whole time while riding a bus home. By the time I type something there’s a whole other page to read. I’m constantly looking to make sure no one takes my stuff and that I didn’t miss my stop and before I know it there’s a whole new thing going on.</p>

<p>@iron I think I’ll take the pity. When I was younger I always had cavities because I had such a sweet tooth, no matter how much I brushed my teeth. Once I hit 12 and was about to enter high school I had to change my eating habits knowing that I was walking into Varsity soccer. I still recall an occasion I had 9 Krispy Kreme donuts in one day…</p>

<p>Fangirl you sound awesome :slight_smile: good luck! I hope we all get in and can like things together</p>

<p>Speaking of the devil. While I typed something a whole new page came up and another person joined. Hi fangirl! </p>

<p>Also, guys I got distracted while typing here and focused to much in it and forgot my sweater in the bus as I was switching to another one…-_- I got that during blackfriday</p>

<p>Thanks ironchariot!
@impressionistic AHHH TUMBLR AND TOM HIDDLESTON. My feelings are positive towards both, to say the least. Tumblr has a special place in my heart although I’ve virtually given it up recently due to time restraints… I’ll probably pick the habit of it back up during Christmas break. I enjoy Tom Hiddleston about as much as I enjoy Benedict Cumberbatch… which is to say, a lot. :slight_smile:
@yalesoon thank you! I hope so too! Ugh I just love UC. I know that goes without saying because I’m here, but goodness. Haha.</p>
