*Official* Stanford REA 2015 Applicants' Discussion Thread

<p>Nevada just won in OT! 34-31</p>

<p>Wow can’t believe i missed the game.</p>

<p>hahahah oh you football fanatics…</p>

<p>SWIMMERS IN THE HOUSE? or runners? ballerina? gymnasts? bgirls (haha i did dance only for a yr though xD)? badmintonners?</p>

<p>@nerdess Yea, I know… I kept telling myself I was going to memorize them when it was necessary, but so far our material hasn’t covered anything with them. :stuck_out_tongue: I used to be a runner! Back like in middle school if that counts for anything. I still run a lot though, you kinda have to when playing soccer.</p>

<p>don’t leave me hanging…
;_____;</p>

<p>[sorry, I’m so used to having new comments everytime I refresh the page. haha I’m impatient ><]</p>

<p>OKAY THANKS REALLYREAL i’m really impatient :stuck_out_tongue: andddd soccer! YEEE which team did you root for world cup?</p>

<p>Nice to meet everyone, I usually lurk rather than post on this thread, but I should probably introduce myself. I’m a Californian who is an eclectic mix of SouthEast Asian heritages, and this last summer I played soccer and studied peace & conflict with international students from Central Asia (Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, etc.) in VA. </p>

<p>I used to cheer my freshman year, but I’ve been focusing most of my time with ModelUN and community service at my library. I also host interfaith, transcultural web conferences between my school and schools outside the US. I can be a huge perfectionist at times, and I’m known to stay up later than I should, but overall I’m a pretty friendly person if you meet me in person. Score-wise, I’m unspectacular, but if college plans don’t turn out well at least I can look forward to this upcoming summer!</p>

<p>Gadgor, it was really good! As for me, I play soccer and volleyball.</p>

<p>oh hey top aren’t you the questbridge finalist I talked to the other day? nice to meet you.</p>

<p>welcome, topramennbaklava!
just wondering, does the “baklava” in your name refer to the…real deal baklava?
AHHH I LOVE BAKLAVA!!! it just happens to be that I ate my first baklava w/ my UN Club/MUN group in preparation for our trip to ethiopia. I’m also from cali! YEEEAH.</p>

<p>HPFan, nice! I’m not good at it, but i love to play vball :]</p>

<p>No problem nerdess! I’m here to keep you from ADD outbreaks. :wink: As for the World Cup, I was going for USA all the way! and then Argentina once they lost. the light blue and white always caught my eye. :slight_smile: I’m sorry if I’m late to the party, but it would be cool to add you guys on facebook to put a face to the username! If yall could PM me how to search for you then that would be great!.. or not, if you think I’m a creeper or something. :P</p>

<p>Oh gosh. I abhorred my Bio and Chem classes. I just don’t like having to memorize insane amounts of material, and chemistry was even more boring in that respect, since it dealt with only 118 element names and abbreviations… </p>

<p>On the other hand, PHYSICS IS AWESOME. I think it’s sad that not everyone takes a physics class during their high school years…</p>

<p>I’ve been dancing since I was two :slight_smile: for the first 14 years it was classical ballet, like in a studio with a barre and stuff… But this year my coursework was too severe and I had to take some time off :frowning: so now my dancing consists of my daily dance parties. They usually occur when getting ready in the morning and any time I’m in my car :slight_smile: This thread is awfully busy tonight!</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I’m glad it is. This discussion has been nothing but interesting :D</p>

<p>psh I DO NOT HAVE ADD! MORE LIKE HYPERHYPERHYPERHYPERHYPER-ness!</p>

<p>:P</p>

<p>I’m Korean. Duh I root for Korea. But once they lost, I was Argentina all the way [MESSI! <3]. Then after ARG lost, DEUSCHTLAND! </p>

<p>I’m only connected to Sarba, Courtney, and minnie on fb! PM ME YOUR NAMES!</p>

<p>Of course I wanted the US, but then I was rooting for Uraguay. I like Diego Forlan.</p>

<p>nerdess I’m Korean too. Nice to meet you. Korea all the way.</p>

<p>This thread’s getting pretty crazy. I’m just chilling on the couch playing Assassin’s Creed.</p>

<p>I LOVE facebook for connecting me with my fellow CCers :slight_smile:
And it’s okay, nerdess. I’ve been told I need adderall more than once in my life ;)</p>

<p>@gadgor; Hey nice to see you again!</p>

<p>@nerdess, Haha, yes m’am. I’m in love with food, especially from the Mediterranean. That’s so neat; it’s a bit eerie that you mention Ethopia, because this Red Cross/UN Club only a town away from mine went there last year!</p>

<p>And about Bio and chem, I loved it! I think I would have liked Physics too…if my teacher actually tried teaching the material.</p>
