<p>which one? i think there’s 4 or 5?</p>
<p>aww guys, i know a little of how you feel. i moved from one country to another and it was a HUGE culture shock.</p>
<p>I applied to Exeter, Milton, Lawrenceville, Deerfield, and Andover last year, and was waitlisted for all of them, save for Andover, from which I was rejected. I go to my public HS right now and am applying all over again :'D</p>
<p>And sure, hope! At school everyone knows me as the grammar nazi and sends me their essays to critique all the time. xD</p>
<p>This one: </p>
<p>Youve been admitted to SPS, and it is Opening Day. Your roommate is your polar opposite: different race, class, interests, and geographic
origin. How will you find common ground on the first day and throughout the year? (Please respond in the space provided.)</p>
<p>thanx! ill pm u then…</p>
<p>I admire your guts tuesdays! I think if i dont get in I’ll give in and accept my public HS fate, I dont think I could put myself through this again but I think your amazing if you can. Best of Luck.</p>
<p>Kli, that essay question was mainly proposed to see how you, as an individual, would solve a problem and deal with people. So we really can’t give you answers save for our own opinions xD If you really think there’s no hope, then put that. There’s no right or wrong, although obviously they’d like to see someone who can figure something out. I would just…uh…uh…oh man. I think I’d be friendly to them, first of all, and reach out to them through my personality. I’d also use academics as a common ground. I mean, we’re all tortured by hw, so that’s obviously a good convo topic :'D a</p>
<p>^ same, same</p>
<p>actually i was same-ing blue but same to tuesday to</p>
<p>@hope no problemo! 8D</p>
<p>@blue THANKS A TON <3 that was mucho encouragement.</p>
<p>GOOD LUCK TO YOU GUYS TOO!!!</p>
<p>I was thinking along similar lines but then i realized to be perfectly honest, we’d probably not get along so well if we’re complete opposites. </p>
<p>oh well. I guess the cliche answer trumps the honest one in this case?</p>
<p>I think you should be totally honest. Everyone’s going to have a cliche answer. BE A MAAAAN :P</p>
<p>congratulations, you guessed my gender correctly. :D</p>
<p>Haha, nice.</p>
<p>i feel like life just just went on w/o me. haha all out of the loop. i love how this is how CCers spend christmas day! (restating blue)</p>
<p>This is NERD CENTRAL, rad. i don’t see anything weird with how we obsess over apps on xmas and reject our families and all 
lol, i love this too.</p>
<p>dedication! at least you guys are the cool HP nerds. im shallow and i reject people who are too outwardly nerdy. i know badness! but i can’t help it, im allergic to tacky and embarrassing</p>
<p>theres a difference between tacky and nerdy… I am not the first but definetly the latter! 
mhmm, although techincally at 1am it’s now Boxing Dat so ha. I’d better go my books call me!</p>
<p>exactly, what i said. but i mean the nerds who like don’t take care of themselves etc. like all greasy and whatnot.</p>
<p>what the deuce is boxing day about? we were having a discussion about this @ my lil xmas dinner so i’d like to be the smug one who knows the answer ;)</p>
<p>Ive really got to go to bed… Sorry, google it or I’ll explain it tommorow.</p>
