<p>"McCormick Hall is noted for the graciousness of its common spaces. First floor facilities now include two large living rooms, 4 "date rooms," a dance studio, the dining hall, and the private dining room."</p>
<p>dance studio? should i bring my tap shoes? lol and what is a "date room"? The view of the Charles will be awesome...</p>
<p>hmm...one can only hope that 195 is an indicator of fewer junior women interested...not that this is overall good, but better for gettting into college, perhaps specifically MIT.</p>
<p>ahhhhh I'm SO EXCITED. are any of you ladies going to be at ISEF?</p>
<p>Many years ago, the only way a male student could go to McCormick was to meet his date in the "date room". Now they're more like little meeting rooms, I guess... I'm not sure anybody really uses them for anything anymore.</p>
<p>You can bring a window air conditioner and put it in if you want to -- electricity is free. :) I don't know how this summer will be, but last summer would have been completely unbearable without my AC. At the very least, bring a fan!</p>
<p>Eeh, I'm guessing the river makes it hot and humid? Ah well, I'll definitely bring a fan. And ice. Lots of ice.
2 months! Have to survive APs first but I can't wait!</p>
<p>Yeah...I'm not too worried. It can't get much worse than MN in peak summer, right? And my mom never lets us turn on the AC unless it's like 110 degrees F.</p>
<p>Hm...if those of us who got in all go (is everyone going?) we'll be 1/12 of all the people there...which is actually quite a bit. Just a thought. This is actually just my way of "bumping" a thread.</p>
<p>Kiki-you were told you were "too good" AND got an amazing opportunity elsewhere. Wow. Have fun this summer!</p>
<p>Am I too late to jump into the forum? (heehee) My letter took FOREVER to get here, and it turned out I was waitlisted, so I had to wait a while longer, but anyway, I found out I'm in too! I'm so excited; it should be great! </p>
<p>Anyway, so just out of curiosity, what do you guys like to do? Favorite classes/sports/books? </p>
<p>No, I'm not going to send in the confirmation form until the last possible day. Because I'm lazy like that.</p>
<p>Hm...what do I like to do? Nothing really specific (I know, lack of "passion". Call it "still exploring one's interests). Argh, I still haven't gotten around to making the "Top Ten..." lists I've wanted to do since last year. This summer, I'll "explore" and get my list fully hammered out.</p>
<p>But yeah, interested in seeing how everyone else responds.</p>
<p>Good question scooby_hermione. I'm so excited but I'm also kinda nervous. A month is a long time to commit, thats half the summer!</p>
<p>Sports/activities:
SOCCER
skiing
running/track
dance
sailing
drama
singing
For classes, I guess I like math, stat, and the like. Most definitely don't like history. eh, school...</p>
<p>Books? Lord of the Rings (and the movies obviously), Harry Potter- scooby_hermione I see youre a fan as well. Those arent very deep books lol. And of course I read the davinci code (who hasnt?).</p>
