<p>As am I. If Wulfran is talking to me, we got some seriously issues.</p>
<p>^ …XDDDDDDDDDD</p>
<p>Sorry. It was directed at ezbreezy. He deleted the post, though.</p>
<p>@minnie
My whole family is from Santiago, but I’ve been to the Atacama desert which is pretty awesome and to the south of Chile like Vina and such.</p>
<p>
Um no. Just look for any of Silverturtle/Jersey13/Mifune’s previous posts on this subject.</p>
<p>I have no clue, but it is PRICELESS</p>
<p>What a wuss</p>
<p>
Awesome. I remember Chile being mentioned earlier in the thread. But that’s cool pretty cool, our school’s Spanish teacher is from Chile. I want to go there someday…</p>
<p>Haha well since we’re all applying REA, it’s not to us
Way to stick up for us, Wulfran!</p>
<p>^^; Thanks, Jason and Courtney!</p>
<p>If I get into Stanford I want to study abroad at the campus in Santiago, that’s one of the things I wrote about in my why stanford</p>
<p>What did ez say?? I’m curious</p>
<p>^Well, based on prior posts, it was probably something stupid</p>
<p>I want to say it was along the lines of “do you really talk like this in real life?”, directed at crmichi, but I can’t remember exactly. (It was definitely a jab at crmichi, though.)</p>
<p>He probably doesn’t want to pick a fight with her. She’s kinda mean. Albeit beautiful and smart.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I asked Crmichi whether she talks like that in real life. It was an honest question. </p>
<p>Good luck to you '15ers! I like that you all stick up for each other. That’s the way it should be.</p>
<p>Uh… yeah. Now that we’ve passed your test and have proved that we’ve created a supportive community, why don’t you go cause trouble elsewhere?</p>
<p>Eh, let’s let him leave with a little dignity… makes for a quicker exit.</p>
<p>Since everybody’s on the subject of places they’re from or w/e, how about a couple of geographic questions?</p>
<p>Are you guys from small towns, small cities, large-scale cities, etc? All from the USA? Has being in a small town (if you’re indeed from one) presented difficulties? For instance most high school graduates remain in the town with family, etc. Also, if you live in a small town are you one of the only ambitious students?</p>
<p>For me, I live in the San Francisco Bay. It’s really difficult to find someone who isn’t applying to Stanford or other top schools. In the specific small-scale city that I reside, a large percentage of families are typically strict, where the children absolutely MUST apply to a top-tier school, etc etc. For instance, a good number of my friends from school are applying to UCs and about 5 have applied REA to Stanford, with another 5 plus me planning on applying RD. We’ve only had one person accepted for each of the last three years, with each having been valedictorian and FBLA chapter president (or co-president). It’s a public school, but due to the local culture the school itself is fairly competitive.</p>

<p>I re-posted my comments.</p>
<p>To Sleeet, I don’t believe I have a straightforward answer to your question since I’ve moved extensively throughout my life, whether between homes or states or countries or even entire continents. But I’ve found that I spent most of my life living in a large metropolitan area.</p>
<p>@fledgling: I see. While I’ve never moved between continents or states even, I have moved about five times since birth. Each at an important time. When I was a toddler, from Tarzana, CA to Orange County, CA (which it looks like you’re from! which part do you live in?); later from one part of OC to another; then again from OC, CA to Redondo Beach, CA (right before the end of elementary school); then from Redondo Beach, CA to where I am now in the SF Bay.</p>
<p>Moving is crazy. Lots of changes… Especially in education. Where I live now has a terrible education system unfortunately.</p>
