<p>“You are you and your…”</p>
<p>My majors were Political Science, International Studies, and Business!</p>
<p>I’m surprised that more people didn’t do apples and oranges. I thought that was going to be the most popular prompt.</p>
<p>I wrote on the orange and apple one too. I personified them a bit and made them go on a date… hope it works lol.</p>

<p>@crake is your username referencing oryx and crake?</p>
<p>Gaa that was such an interesting book. UChicago people are amazing.</p>
<p>@nerve it was awesome! i’m so glad to find people who’ve read it :)</p>
<p>She’s so brilliant! I loved Handmaid’s Tale, too. I really need to read Year of the Flood and Maddaddam, I just always get a bit worried that sequels aren’t going to live up</p>
<p>I’ve heard mixed reviews on the sequels. I think Handmaid’s Tale is my favorite of her books that I’ve read.</p>
<p>@ironchariot </p>
<p>Shhhhh… but I’m nothing like Crake.
Too many usernames are taken!</p>
<p>Edit:
Haven’t read Maddaddam; this whole senioritis and applications thing is death.</p>
<p>@crake lol awesome 
side note: if this is what my hopefully potential classmates are like, I can’t wait!</p>
<p>I used the joke prompt for my essay.</p>
<p>For majors, I put mathematics, computer science, and music.</p>
<p>The “You are and your” one. I wrote about marshmallows (believe me, it’s a lot more relevant than it seems). </p>
<p>Majors: Anthropology, Philosophy, Latin American Studies :D</p>
<p>I did “yo soy yo y mi…” and my “…” was “universo.” I am myself and my universe. It was all about physics and predestination. Anyone care to read? I’d love to read y’alls essays too!</p>
<p>Only two apples and oranges (myself being one of them). As I said earlier, I expected it to be a lot more popular. This makes me feel a bit better, knowing that I didn’t write for the overused prompt.</p>
<p>@Debater, I know in my school at least another guy wrote on orange and apple (brilliantly!), but otherwise it is relatively unpopular. I saw on a forum (which is quite popular in my country) tens of people voted on “which essay they wrote” and orange and apple is also the least chosen.</p>
<p>Are you from Japan, Doremi? or SK?</p>
<p>@International95: No, I’m from China (although I speak a little Korean ). :)</p>
<p>I chose apples and oranges! I wrote first paragraphs for a couple prompts, but my apples and oranges one just seemed to flow. </p>
<p>Majors: linguistics and the two English options. (I’m terrible at math, clearly.)</p>
<p>I wrote about history. I took a more serious tone, but I think it definitely showed my personality/what I’m interested in. </p>
<p>I’m hoping to major in history and minor in religion or Middle Eastern studies.</p>
