I'm the only Harvard applicant who....

<p>oh my god that’s awful :slight_smile: poor kid.</p>

<p>You know it was funny ;)</p>

<p>Hmmm… very interesting. I’ve read this entire thread, and I must say it’s definitely my favorite of all the threads (haha, even better than the “Boys are Weird” thread - which I love!!).</p>

<p>Ok, well candlize and runningncircles1, I’m openly gay in NY, I can speak, read, and write Spanish, Italian, and French (and read Portuguese). I’m a URM (100% Colombian - born in Bogot</p>

<p>Only applicant who can write her name backwards and upside down in less than two seconds?</p>

<p>i’m still playing this awful bill cosby/fat kid thing. it’s hypnotic. :D</p>

<p>AHHHHHHHH! That image will forever be engraved in my brain!! Haha, the horror!!</p>

<p>Very funny, Circles. :D</p>

<p>that reminds me of starwars kid. i remember reading somewhere that his family had to move away because of public embarrassment and that he was now in a mental facility.
he was probably already unbalanced to begin with though.
the internet is cruel</p>

<p>“maybe i’m the only harvard applicant who’s been a crossdresser before.”</p>

<p>I’ve got you beat! I won a contest last year held by my school. It’s really funny because the winner of the contest gets to host it the following year, so I’ve got to outdo myself in the spring…</p>

<p>maybe I’ll go as Beyonce… :)</p>

<p>candlize, was that a one time occasion?
i was one for two years.
i wish i could see the beyonce thing :)</p>

<p>wow 2 years? in that case, you do have me beat!
yeah, the contest was definitely a one time thing. I originally wasn’t even going to do it, but then I thought why the hell not? and ended up winning.</p>

<p>I am the only harvard applicant with 1500 hours of community service.</p>

<p>Ha!! Me too. At my school we had a fundraiser called “Cinderfella” to raise funds for Hurricane Katrina Relief. Guys and male teachers/faculty in our school got all dressed up as women… we had the whole modeling thing goin’ on w/ judges and everything… and then they voted on the best crossdressed guy. It was a lot of fun and it was for a good cause.
…my two cents</p>

<p>-Jon :)</p>

<p>Wow, congrats :)</p>

<p>cinderfella. awesome.</p>

<p>Any students here applying to Harvard with businesses as ECs?</p>

<p>yes. i own three.</p>

<p>Wow, what kind of businesses? If you dont mind telling me…I’m just interested :)</p>

<p>yeah…im the only harvard applicant with top 10%…wait, no hold up im the only harv app with pres of…wait no, um…oh crap im exactly the same as everyone, even worse in some cases. well screw it im stuck. oh well. i just realized that i have no shot at harvard at all. so whatever. :frowning: seriously im depressed. i just totally failed my act, my rank sucks. my grades suck, i didnt do anything until 2nd semester of soph year. i have no chance at any ivy. there is someone better then me in every catagory. im a orm, im not poor, i dont have any buiness and i havnt started any charities, there is someone better then me at everything. i did run a marathon, but no one here thinks its really a big deal (at least as big as i want it to be) i barely match the min rec requirments for anything, and i just realized it all at one. wow. ive posted mostly in this thread and now i realize i have absolutly no shot. anytime i feel good and i think i do have a shot i realize that i dont. why would harvard pick me over someone who is way more qualified then me. my entire app hinges on how big a deal running a marathon is. is it good enough to wipe away my total suckiness in every catagory? ive taken 3 ap tests and ive gotten a 4, 4 and a 3 on them. im a junior so i have another year to worry about this. maybe i just set my goals to high. damn. oh well. (and i say oh well to much) someone please console me.</p>

<p>lol. i was joking.
and shark_bite, please chill. pining and moaning will get u absolutely nowhere… esp harvard. instead of complaining, do something about your insecurities, activate yourself. don’t expect people to devote their time trying to console you if you refuse to see your qualities. besides, if u dont see them, the adcoms wont either.</p>

<p>Shark_bite…relax. How bout if I tell you that Harvard draws names or flips a coin to see who’ll get in?"</p>

<p>Plus…aren’t u a junior? Or am I confused?</p>
