<p>haha I read <em>most</em> of the Oxford’s 7th edition last summer 
It’s not the most boring thing I’ve ever read though :D</p>
<p>deadaim, yeah, i don’t think you have to resend unless a starving cockroach in the post office decides that TASP-related mails taste better than the others :D</p>
<p>haha. i hope that that is sarcasm. i really do. </p>
<p>im reading most of the summer though. my summer reading is pretty light, but i think ill do the same thing i did last summer: read until my brain aches. </p>
<p>im reading east of eden right now. its really good. </p>
<p>as for the mailing/emailing predicament, i agree. i doubt that anyone wants both. you should be fine. </p>
<p>im hoping that my roommates are cool, though. haha.</p>
<p>six weeks with some weirdos would not be enjoyable, i think.</p>
<p>i hope most people are down to earth enough.</p>
<p>^^I’ll have to disappoint you but it wasn’t sarcasm. My vocab was so dismal and I so desperate that I did read it :> </p>
<p>… though I left out all the words beginning with i, and was finally too cloyed to finish them:D</p>
<p>The more I’ve been reading about it, the more excited I am about going to Texas Austin!</p>
<p>I read Austin is suppose to be one of, if not THE best college town in the nation, and has some of the best entertainment in the world.</p>
<p>aaaaaaah, 23 more days!</p>
<p>Tyler, I TOTALLY share your excitement. I turn 18 while were down there too…it’s supposed to be the live music capital of the US. Awesome!</p>
<p>gah! Rafa Nadal wins for the fourth damn time in a row…with ease T.T
On a lighter note, is anyone else driving to Ithaca?</p>
<p>Yeah, unfortunately, my parents (never having been to Ithaca) are determined to see where I’m staying for the summer. Thus, most unfortunately, my parents are forcing me to let them drive me there. I live in the DC metro area, so its like an 8 hr. drive for us. </p>
<p>On another note, is anyone planning on doing any preTASP reading? Review of modern history or philosophers?</p>
<p>no. definitely not. </p>
<p>i am, however, going to read anything interesting that i get my hands on. summer for me means a lot of poolside sitting, a lot of lit reading (sorry, no plato), and even more sleeping. haha. </p>
<p>i got my grades back, too. they were good, so im going to reward myself with some heavy, heavy relaxing. </p>
<p>haha.</p>
<p>as for the driving thing, that sucks. though i can’t say a total of 9 hours of flying will be any better.</p>
<p>I plan on getting most of my summer work done on the twenty or so hours of flying I’ll be on to and from Ithaca. Fun, fun.</p>
<p>man, i feel for you guys</p>
<p>and i thought my 2.5 hour flight was bad…</p>
<p>Where does everyone live to have such long flights?</p>
<p>Sarah Lawrence, I thought you were in California?</p>
<p>So I think one of my last posts in this thread was about how I came home with a message on the phone from an area code that looked suspiciously like Ithaca but turned out to be Vancouver?</p>
<p>Well, today, I came home and there was a message on the phone from an area code that looked suspiciously like Vancouver, but turned out to be Ithaca.</p>
<p>I’M GOING TO UT AUSTIN :D:D:D</p>
<p>did anyone else luck out with a pubspeak slot in week 1/2?</p>
<p>How do you already have your pubspeak slot?</p>
<p>it came in an email along with my rooming form</p>
<p>I still haven’t found out who my roommate is OR when my pubspeak is. Le sigh.</p>
<p>I go the last week. I’m don’t know what the heck to do this (insert expletive) on. hopefully it’ll be some sexy topic everyone loves u.u</p>
<p>They said we would decide our times when we get there. I think. Can any other UT’ers back me up?</p>
<p>First, congrats Illuminar!! :)</p>
<p>About the pubspeak and rooming, I think it completely depends on the seminar/factota. I haven’t heard about my roommate(s) or pubspeak slot either</p>
