Gymnastics, Squash, Sailing and Snowboarding I do on my own. Outside of school. As for football, hockey, lacrosse, and soccer, I'm a girl for football, so basically I'm on the bench most of the time because my coach is sexist. Uhmm... so hockey for winter, soccer for fall, and lacrosse for spring. Snowboarding I can only do on weekends when I go up north, which isn't often. Sailing I do in the summer, maybe once every two weeks. Gymnastics is maybe for two or three hours on weekends, I'm not too involved anymore. Squash is just a recreational thing I do for pure fun with my friends every now and then. However, I do take lessons over the summertime.
As for the rest of my things, some of them I use a lot of time up, others not so much. Just because I do a lot of activites doesn't mean you need to say that I'm a fake, troll, or whatever. I was not trying to brag, as some of the people on this forum have such amazing accomplishments. I do a lot of ECs and such, however, that doesn't mean I will get in. The acceptance rates for each of the schools is under 25%. There's no telling if I'll get in. I'm just as nervous as the lot of you. So please, don't make downgrade me.
I'm sorry to all of you who think I'm a "troll". And who is italianboarder? o.o
Oh, and I'm currently doing moto perpetuo. Quite hard for me.

I give up... the trolls have won. Jasmyn has like 4 accounts. Senay is back. And now this troll is whining about being called a troll. We are all going to be eaten ALIVE!!!!!

*runs away screaming*

Listen to people who have significant post counts, I know cafes don't count but you do not contribute much by posting only in cafes.

Heres logic, if it is someone genuinely new then we can "detect" them. If it is a troll with quite a few posts, Senay, he/she has exposed him/her self on this forum well enough for us to know not to listen to him/her.

I agree with you though.

LeeLeigh · 02-15-2009, 06:43 PM

Istole, please stop. I know you think I'm a troll. I explained above some of my reasoning for my ECs and such. It is your choice to believe if I'm a troll or not, however, can you please just leave this thread? I'd be very appreciative. Thank you.
Principal, I agree with your logic, it would seem reasonable that since my post count is low and apparently my stats look fake, that I could be a troll. I am not a um, clone? of one of the so called show-offs on this forum. I'm sorry if I seem to be. However, I don't think it's quite nice to post people who may have been annoying or showed off in the past, but aren't currently posting here. Just um, keep the peace? ^.^
Trying to keep things mature... and calm, I guess.

principalviola · 02-15-2009, 06:52 PM

Okay let's end this utterly pointless discussion. If, indeed, your stats are accurate (which neither I, nor most of the posters believe is the case) then you have a bloody brilliant chance. Point being, there are only 24 hrs in the day and when they see you do a few minutes of each they will think you are padding.

A lot of your stats, especially together, are unrealistic; moreover any idiot would know that your credentials are through the roof. If you have those stats you are smart enough to know how good they are so the bottom line is you are either a troll or you are fishing for compliments.

Mistake made, lesson learned. kk?

LeeLeigh · 02-15-2009, 06:56 PM

Thank you for the critique. Mostly I do the things in different seasons, but yeah, I do think I added some "padding" throughout the two years, I guess. The thing about some of my credentials is that the school I currently attend has a LOT of kids applying to these schools. And a lot of the kids have some of the same credentials of me. Not all, but some, so I thought that might be a reg flag that I was not original.

I second everything Viola said. I'm leaving your thread. But in this last post, I want to let everyone who reads this know... don't be intimidated by fakes, there are a lot of them on this website, try to ignore them, especially ones that are obvious fakes like LeeLeigh

cheeseviolin · 02-15-2009, 08:46 PM

haaa this person is fake, i was right!! wwoooo!!
she never answer my questionnn

LeeLeigh · 02-15-2009, 09:33 PM

I actually did cheese, if you look up a bit. o.o..

hotchkissjin · 02-15-2009, 10:35 PM

my best friend is actually very similar to this person. she does a god-like amount of extracurriculars, has great grades, got a 99 on the psat, and does tons of sports but she never goes out with friends or does anything fun because she doesn't have the time. she's also very tired almost all the time. since I have such a close personal relationship with a person like you, it's hard for me to believe that you're a "troll".
basically, I think that you've got an excellent chance.

cheeseviolin · 02-15-2009, 10:42 PM

nowww i see it haha sorry, i missed that.
moto perpetuo? veryy nicee piece (actually, i didnt even know what that was until 5 min ago haha) ive never actually played it, but i just asked my friend and SHE has and said it wasnt that difficult, just very fast. ahh i love presto...so much fun xD

teamam · 02-15-2009, 10:44 PM

You might as well have applied to college.

principalviola · 02-15-2009, 11:37 PM

Grad school.

thingslost · 02-16-2009, 01:46 AM

No offense, but do you have a life outside of school/EC's? I really shouldn't be saying anything as the majority of us are on CC all the time, but seriously?

starz27 · 02-16-2009, 11:13 AM

First of all, if your football coach is sexist, and you are a girl, then why would he offer you a spot on the team, let alone the varsity team, especially as a middle schooler.

Second of all, honors pre-calc is an 11th grade class, what are you planning on taking when you actually are in 11th grade.

third, even if you football coach does bench you, you are still on the team, and you wouldn't be able to play on the soccer team as well, you wouldn't be able to both practices.

fourth, you (supposedly) take so many advanced classes, how do you have time to play 3 varsity sports, and five other sports outside of school, all as an eight grader!?

last but not least, did you seriously as if you have a hook? not only did you ask that, but you asked it after you listed that you speak 4 languages! if this thread is for real, you have about 17 hooks (random number I pulled out of my head).
