<p>this made me crack a smile and temporarily forget the impending doom of December 10th.</p>

<p>Let’s talk about the Average Penn Student Here…or maybe Penn Weirdos We Have Known!</p>

2

<p>if us CCers get into penn. we’re defenitely gonna be some colorful people <em>COUGH</em> CHOCO <em>COUGH</em></p>

3

<p>but we already know that.
penn has the racial diversity.
<a href=“URMs…%20etc”>insert bitter sarcasm</a></p>

4

<p>i’m an ORM woot.</p>

5

<p>at our school we have 50% asians
not even a minority. bloody hell.</p>

6

<p>lol. i still don’t even know what URM means.</p>

<p>i was talking to my awesomely badass history teacher about how i couldn’t wait for college…to meet new people outside the Glen Rock bubble…aka people who are NOT WHITE. and he was like 'Oh, you’re totally wrong there. College will be EXACTLY like Glen Rock. Same ratio of whites to asians to blacks to hispanics, just multiplied by twenty."</p>

<p>what do you have to say to that? lol</p>

7

<p>URM = underrepresented minority</p>

<p>like if you’re Maori or something lol</p>

8

<p>does chinese girl count as URM? or is that way over RM?</p>

9

<p>over-represented minority, unfortunately.
actually being asian female might actually help
b/c we all know how desirable they are
(taking hints from woody allen and nicholas cage - ■■■ he married a 19 yr old korean)</p>

10

<p>dude if i get into penn, im going to go out w/ a 19 yr old korean girl. korean girls are the hottest out of any asian. boob: my school has similar asian:white ppl ratios…thats why i LOVES asians WOOT.</p>

11

<p>agreed. Korean girls = the shiznit. and i only say shiznit because the real word gets censored.</p>

<p>i still prefer Italian guys best though lol…</p>

<p>i hate that I can be so Russian…2 parents from Moscow, grow up speaking Russian, feeling very much un-American many many times…and yet still be white. i FEEL like a totally different race sometimes, and yet in the end i’m just Caucasian.</p>

12

<p>blurinka…i agree with that last part of ur post</p>

13

<p>yeah, asian = WORM
LOL! WORM!
sorry.
(“how’s that?” that’d be way over represented minority)</p>

14

<p>most penn kids are “normal” in the sense that they are all very social. there are some oddballs but they aren’t too common. and even the oddballs are cool. everyone here is nice and i dont think ive ever met somebody i didn’t find interesting. </p>

<p>good luck with december 10th . . . thats the last day of classes for us, signaling the impending hell known as exams. so its sort of a doomsday for everybody i guess.</p>

15

<p>hahah i have my finals all next week
it will be so hectic.
getting college applications done,
finishing up final term papers
finding out penn decision
making fun of the other ivy schools</p>

16

<p>I have finals in two weeks
Have my extended essay due sometime, I think my advisor is going to come and hunt me down for the rough draft.
Have to read like two Chinese Lit books…the Penn thing chips away my concentration and focus, I don’t think I can thoroughly do anything before the decision
Have to suck up to my Neo-Nazi history teacher who has <em>just</em> made participation points the “FINALS”…</p>
