Telluride Association Summer Program ( TASP ) 2008

<p>I’m definitely getting echoes from that asimov short story a few pages back…</p>

<p>How so, Hermy?</p>

<p>Thread starts off as a tight-knit group, group changes and expands, gradually losing its original meaning… then collapse (rejections) then, “LET THERE BE LIGHT–”.</p>

<p>Sorry to anyone who I just spoiled the story for…</p>

<p>It’s just how things are, though. Compression, reaction, turning point, entropy?</p>

<p>I’ve heard said, though, that wouldn’t the construction of buildings and cities constitute the establishment of order and thus the /reversal/ of entropy?</p>

<p>Though, all contrariness aside, it’s an interesting way to think about things.</p>

<p>I did it! Plus, this is my 1,000 post! How appropriate that my last post in this thread would carry me to that milestone. It’s located in high school life and I’ll be there waiting for you guys.</p>

<p>Sayonara, TASP. You’ve been a helluva ride.</p>

<p>Hasta la vista.</p>

<p>hey people. i got my official tasp rejection letter today, yay! **** it. it’s so selective, im happy i just did the application and can hopefully use the essays for college. anyway, congrats to all who made it to the interviews and good luck… i will remain a lurker on this thread because i know that allllll of you are going to do so well in life. best of luck to everyone, and i’m sure i’ll see a lot of you around on cc…</p>

<p>I finally recieved my official rejection letter today in the mail. I can’t say I wasn’t expecting it, so i’m not disappointed</p>

<p>WHOA GOT AN INTERVIEW letter! so unbelievable wow…anyways. my mom called at 7:15 this morning to tell me hahah and I was in this student senate meeting thing. Yeah. that did not go so well when I yelled out “oh ****!!!” WHOOOOOT!</p>

<p>Who else??</p>

<p>congratulations mihan!
welcome to the interview club
My interviewer contacted me yesterday to arrange a ( phone ! :frowning: ) interview.</p>

<p>My parents were less enthusiastic about me applying to some programme abroad and spending 80 dollars on dhl express mail ( I got my transcscript on the 21st…)
When the letter came they just yelled from downstairs " hey henn, there is some letter for you from … wait where… greece!.. no aeehm, NY… somewhere in new york! what did you do this time? Is this one of the companies you dumped your money into and now they are bankrupt?" XD</p>

<p>I’m nervously waiting for my interviewer to call me. I want to get it out of the way as soon as possible because I keep thinking about it XD</p>

<p>So who are the people who have gotten an interview so far?? I haven’t been on cc much lately at all and I don’t really have the luxury of going back and reading all the posts (as interesting as they are hahah)</p>

<p>Now I’m scared for my interview…</p>

<p>aaaaah</p>

<p>Scheduling my interview for sometime in two weeks, with a woman named Cathy Carlson. Do any of you former TASPers reading this know her? I hope a phone interview doesn’t diminish my chances… not that I can do anything about it though. Heh maybe I should offer to pay for the call to Germany.</p>

<p>so my interview is going to be around the end of the month with ellen. i’m pumped because it is someone i have experience with. :)</p>

<p>Hmm, my interviewer seems to have dropped off the face of the earth. He emailed me a little while ago to schedule a meeting sometime next week, but I haven’t heard anything since. I’m starting to get paranoid, like this is one of those, “Congratulations-- you’re getting an interview! Oh, wait… We didn’t mean you, we meant her. Wrong email address.” situations. But I’m sure that’s just me being crazy. :D</p>

<p>I guess there’s nothing to do but wait. I wish I were a patient person.</p>
