Is this a crude/rude/weird answer to Lawrenceville AOs?

<p>Well, so I was completing my Lawrenceville app that is due today. (PLEASE respond, I’m begging you. I have about an hour left before the deadline.</p>

<p>I started with medical thing and then went into a 1065 word discourse on my life. All to the question</p>

<p>“Is there anything more you’d like us to know about you?”</p>

<p>Before I knew it, it was already super long.</p>

<p>Is there anyone who is willing to read it? (quickly) I think it might be 100% Off base and way too informal. I even added in a smiley face and a winky face (probs will take those out…) </p>

<p>Thanks a bunch!</p>

<p>(wow I never noticed how weird my essays are…)</p>

<p>PM it to me. I’ll respond to you in like twenty minutes. :D</p>

<p>P.S. Don’t worry, :slight_smile: and :wink: are informal, so take them out while you can. Unlike me, who while on a chat session with an Andover AO, cracked a joke about weather and added a smiley face…</p>

<p>^HAHA omg how did he/she respond?</p>

<p>Well they thought it was like super rude or whatever, I thought it was really funny and sarcastic! Like, it will really stand out IMO. :D</p>

<p>PM it to me please? :smiley: ← I just realized how creepy that face looks… lol.</p>

<p>You can PM me! I was informal on my Andover short answers… but I believe it will not be a strike against me because it showed I had a personality and I had a sense of humor.</p>
