<p>edit: oops, got answered. no, i haven’t heard of hubert selby. time for a google/wikipedia search.</p>
<p>for me, it should come mid-april. but i’m assuming you’re a freshman applicant and not a transfer, in which case the blog says before april 1! how exciting.</p>
<p>(assuming that you do) why do you want to go to uchicago?</p>
<p>because it is in chicago and just a great school in general. I have family around chicago also! I cant wait till decisions are sent out…</p>
<p>what is the best pet you have ever had?</p>
<p>I’ve never really had a pet.</p>
<p>Do you read the Atlantic Monthly, New Yorker, Paris Review, etc. etc.?</p>
<p>no i do read books however</p>
<p>any good at sudoku?</p>
<p>i’m actually pretty decent</p>
<p>ever built a bear at build-a-bear?? :)</p>
<p>sadly I havent’- I’m a broke college student nowadays lol.</p>
<p>have you ever written a short story?</p>
<p>of course not.</p>
<p>how high do you have your perfect squares/square roots memorized? no skipping (like if you know 20 but not 18 or 19, itd be 17)</p>
<p>13… I know 15, but not 14, so accoding to stresballz, it doesn’t count :)</p>
<p>is there a way to eat things quickly without swallowing air so you don’t become burpy?</p>
<p>Lol I don’t know, ask Koboyashi</p>
<p>On the topic of Japan</p>
<p>What do you think of Anime (lol)?</p>
<p>Don’t see the appeal although when I was in middle school I was obsessed with Sailor Moon</p>
<p>Do you like pickles on your Chick Fil A sandwiches?</p>
<p>Yuck, no pickles. I do like their slightly-sweet ketchup, though.</p>
<p>If you could write a book about yourself, what would be the first word and the last word?</p>
<p>The…
…tomorrow.</p>
<p>Should pot be legalized and why?</p>
<p>Yes, it’s just like smoking a cigarette or drinking in my mind. I’ve never smoked, but I don’t feel like it’s as big an offense as it’s painted to be. </p>
<p>Decriminilization would probably take a lot of stress off of our criminal justice system too, and make weed safer (IE lacing would probably go out the window)</p>
<p>Not a great answer, but that’s how I feel</p>
<p>Have you ever played golf before? If not are you interested in ever trying it?</p>
<p>Yeah I suck</p>
<p>Do you eat bananas?</p>
<p>Yes, they are a great source of potassium</p>
<p>About what fraction of the entire English vocabulary do you think you know/could define?</p>
<p>probably like 12%… on the SAT I calculated that I got 1 in 3 vocab words right (luckily I got 8/9 reading questions right to compensate), and I figured that there are probably a lot of words that even collegeboard wouldn’t expect us to know, but there are also filler words like “the” and “a” so that makes up for the rest slightly…</p>
<p>why are the mice in my pantry squeaking right now? (no, they generally don’t make noises except for at night when I hear them scuttling above my bedroom… I refuse to let my father hire an exterminator so I now tell him I don’t hear anything…)</p>
<p>they are very hungry and like to eat small pieces of cheese.</p>
<p>what is your ISP?</p>
<p>This is sad and I hate to reveal my secret shame, but I still use AOL. My mom’s kind of stone-age about technology and all other forms of internet are frightening to her. (I think we’ve been AOL customers since… 1994… which makes it even worse.)</p>
<p>Do you support abstinence only sex ed or comprehensive sex ed?</p>
<p>I am incapable of writing any SHORT piece of fiction. If I write creatively it has to be a novella or a novel. Maybe Chicago can teach me conciseness?</p>
<p>Does it seem like people are becoming more apathetic, especially in high school?</p>
<p>honied dreams, thank you.
gracello, i support sex-only sex ed. I’m not kidding.</p>
<p>Have you ever eaten fried bananas?
(If not, do it right now. take some butter, melt it on a pan, cut a banana in half along its length, and enjoy the paradise know only to a select few culinary experimenters)</p>
