<p>I used bits from short answers and different essays. It was like puzzles. It did make me realize how much better I could’ve made my Scripps app, but oh well. It wasn’t terrible.</p>
<p>I never said Dick Cheney wasn’t a d-uche, he’s aptly named.</p>
<p>I’m terrible at this New Year’s resolution thing. </p>
<p>I can finish (start) my homework tomorrow, so I think for now I’ll just look up college stuff and freak out for three months.</p>
<p>Snoopyiscool, have you received an account on Harvard’s website? Because I did and they apparently haven’t received any of my counselor/teacher stuff. Have they received yours?</p>
<p>Also, I just got a Princeton interview.</p>
<p>SAME THING! I was freaking out about that earlier, but if the Common App sends those automatically, maybe they just haven’t downloaded them yet.</p>
<p>Do I want a Northwestern interview?</p>
<p>Yes you do.</p>
<p>I think that a bunch of colleges are dealing with tons and tons of mail (I mean, Harvard probably got like, 20,000 letters in the past month alone) and it takes a while to sort through all that, so I’d give it a while.</p>
<p>I’m all jittery. I don’t think I got the Scripps scholarship, but ah well.</p>
<p>I’m sucking at this New Year’s resolution.</p>
<p>I have no idea how they made Youth in Revolt into a movie; the book was so …dirty. And dense, ish. Also, they made a movie called Leap Day and they’re releasing it not in a leap year. They are SO blaspheming my birthday.</p>
<p>And, why do I feel like making a chances thread? Why?? Why??! I’m so insecure sometimes, but then I talk.</p>
<p>Fine. No one else answer. MY THREAD</p>
<p>I just realized that I mentioned something vaguely illegal on my Columbia app. I don’t feel like fixing it. Oh wellll.</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure four in a row is a record.</p>
<p>Got my first thin envelope today; sad :(.</p>
<p>I’ve never gone to 5 in a row. All my homework is done, though, so maybe I’ll get to 10.</p>
<p>Mike, if you’re reading this, I’m going to need you to sneak into the admissions office at NU and put all the files from half Asian, big city-lovin’, charming, witty Tennizzlers into the accepted pile. And write in something about a full ride.</p>
<p>I got into kollij today.</p>
<p>Congrats! Which one? Is it Canadian? If it’s Canadian it doesn’t count, you being the sole citizen and all.</p>
<p>[url=<a href=“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Ottawa]It[/url”>University of Ottawa - Wikipedia]It[/url</a>] is Canadian, and it is a huge safety, seeing as I was accepted slightly over four days after I applied. But they gave me generous scholarship money, so…</p>
<p>So it’s the UT of Canada. Gotcha. </p>
<p>I didn’t get the Scripps merit aid. Is it bad if I was surprised? Ah well. I like NU the most right now, besides big beautiful Columbia with its <10% acceptance rate. Big and beautiful. Columbia is my Aretha. Should I send in an addendum to that effect?</p>
<p>Merit aid is a pile of sh-t. </p>
<p>In other news, I just found out that I got a grant I applied for for one of my clubs.</p>
<p>I’m trying to figure out how to fill out this elusive National Honor Society scholarship form, but I can’t find it. Oh well. I’ll just go to UT and be happy, I suppose.</p>
<p>I recently realized that if I went back and looked up every single random thing I’ve ever posted here I would have a brilliant novel.</p>

<p>We’re all freaking out about that. It’s hilarious.</p>
<p>IT ISN’T HILARIOUS IF YOU’RE ME</p>
<p>gosh.</p>
