<p>Thanks, I definitely agree with you. I would absolutely love a gap year, but I’m not sure I could bring my parents around to approving one. It was hard enough to get them to agree to not send me to law school. Ah well. Hopefully things will work out. :)</p>
<p>Edit Eh? I got EST.</p>
<p>am or pm???</p>
<p>Tell them “ono bangali ra korche, tar maane, gap year nischoy bhalo hobe”. Hehe, but no seriously, you can always continue with college in Cal but apply as well and see if anything changes. With parents, things change from year to year, and day to day, at times. Same case with American colleges, strangely.</p>
<p>PM, gaps. Wait, let me re-read.</p>
<p>Hahahahahahahah Paradox ami cheshta korbo. Hahaha.</p>
<p>Also, I am a stupid sick masochist. ■■■.</p>
<p>I have finished one chapter!!! Yay :D. I’m too cool aren’t I ?</p>
<p>Haha. Tomar chesta e jonno Shubheccha, QuasiProfound. (I like imagining how a truly anglicised Bengali from the Independence era would say this-the contrast between the Bangla and the Ingreji)</p>
<p>xD. We Bangali love many things of the Ingreji.</p>
<p>Yes, Bangalis do have a lot of british influences. <em>thinks about the quintessential Bangali with the traveling cane and fake british accent. He also has a country home in shantiniketan</em>.</p>
<p>I am going to be a biology professor. <em>haughty look</em></p>
<p>Haha, the fake English accent combined with the thick Bangali accent. Oh, the irony. Utterly hilarious. I still love us as a community though. We can give anyone a run for their money when it comes to being the definition of madness, except maybe the Parsis.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Very true. Its sad that the Parsis are dying out. </p>
<p>1200th Post!!!</p>
<p>cheese, are we competing or something? I need to start posting more</p>
<p>I don’t compete, remember :).</p>
<p>Actually, with the boards going on, I find myself on CC more often than before. (anything to avoid those hideous fat text books :))So, I’ve gone ahead of you in terms of post count.</p>
<p>Is it just me or does Mo’nique have an amazingly cool name?</p>
<p>The Parsis are still thriving in Bombay, but yeah what’s sadder is that the Zoroashtrian authorities don’t consider products of a marriage where a Parsi mother marries a non-Parsi father, Parsi. It’s sexist and stupid, especially since your community is dying and you’re hellbent on in-breeding which doesn’t help your cause at all.</p>
<p>She does, as does the lead actress of Precious but her name is downright unpronouncable in a very cool African way, so everyone just sticks to Gaby, I guess.</p>
<p>I meant to say that “Mo’nique” itself is a cool name. So creative. Mo’nique. I could say it all the time!</p>
<p>So, is anyone else very very jealous of all the people getting their Early Writes? I know I am! :(</p>
<p>I just want to know already so I can start the “healing process” :p</p>
<p>I feel like killing them and I’m just convincing myself there are no EWs for int’ls. I don’t care. There just arent.</p>
<p>What is early write?</p>
