<p>@banjosaur: Woah! I just googled that and it looks like you’re right. I had NO idea he was doing that! That is so cool! I love the guy even more now!! </p>
<p>@holycrapkaytee: The only thing I know of Common is what I’ve heard from him in Kid Cudi’s debut album and Kayne West’s first 2 albums. REALLY dig what I’ve heard from him though. Love his flow, and he seems like a great writer.</p>
<p>I think I didn’t get in because my common app essay seems like someone trying to get into a design program (I’d really like to go to CMU’s School of Design). That might just be me saying that, my English teacher and guidance councilor said it was fine as a general essay.</p>
<p>There are a few other things that could have been factors, but applying undecided seems to make the most sense. I did have an issue with a class that I ended up switching out of, so they may have been interested in seeing what happened with that.</p>
<p>I’m not too broken up about it because it was a deferral and not a denial, and I got into another school today that I’m pretty happy with. </p>

hahahahaha!!! yeah, absolutely!!! anyway… respect those “nerds”!!! I’m among them, I suppose!!!
hahahaha!!! what I mean is that, although I do not share Dukakis’ stances, it must be great having him as a teacher… he was the Democratic candidate, so I’m pretty sure he must be a sort of expert on the field!!!</p>
<p>@cocufato Nerds are where it’s at. Today a friend threw a biscuit at me during breakfast and someone else screamed “THAT WAS A PERFECT PARABOLA!” I love magnet schools for nerds.</p>
<p>@Lupe fans: Respectable choices guys. Go Go Gadget Flow is proof on how amazing Lupe’s flow is. It’s so insanely fast that it’s a marvel just to listen to. kaytee though - Gold Watch? Dude. The sample that plays over and over through-out it KILLS it. KILLS IT. Unbelievably annoying. Lyrics in it are great (love his reference to Street Fighter), but the sample…ugh. My favs gotta be Superstar, Kick Push, Hurt Me Soul, and Little Weapon.</p>
