<p>@Pyro: Are you in Hyderabad?</p>
<p>I’ve managed to fall behind both Shrivats and K in number of posts. 
Shrivats’ harangue about language didn’t help me too much either. Good luck all of you with your Stanford decision. Hope some of you will choose to come.</p>
<p>I am guessing pyro is in the same school as we are, fuzzy.</p>
<p>^ do you know him, spacepirate? I never realized so many kids were applying from our school.</p>
<p>yeah… i know him.</p>
<p>there are at least 10 people in our school who are intent on studying in the US :D</p>
<p>anyone celebrating ram navami?</p>
<p>@whoever asked: My parents want me to get into something in case I don’t get a visa. Now, there’s no reason why I shouldn’t get a visa. :(.</p>
<p>I’m not studying for the JEE, though.</p>
<p>how about you spacepirate? are you preparing for the JEE seriously?</p>
<p>Yeah, fuzzylogic and spacepirate, FIITJEE Hyderabad. ROCKS, dunnit ? :D</p>
<p>I actually know a girl who moved to Hyderabad to attend FIITJEE just because there wasn’t one in Bangalore at that point. :rolleyes: Bit frightening, innit?</p>
<p>There are actually quite a few kids in my class who have moved here from other cities.</p>
<p>Yeah. Either marvellously dedicated or marvellously insane, I haven’t decided which. (Of course, this is from the point of view of someone who did no IIT prep until late February this year, so I suppose I simply don’t understand the motivation.) </p>
<p>Ah, IIT. Driving India insane since the year whateveritwas.</p>
<p>1950ish? 
(Yes I knew that, no, wiki had nothing to do with it ;))</p>
<p>I’ve been spending the morning browsing through the CMU site, (I recommend it most thoroughly if you want to waste a good few hours); figured that if since I’ve got to make an informed decision on where I’m going for college, I might as well be informed! :)</p>
<p>Congrats Noldo…</p>
<p>Finally, what I hav predicted for u has come true, eh??..</p>
<p>Ah well, haranguer reporting again. </p>
<p>Yesterday’s daily round up: 83 posts.</p>
<p>As recent as that, then? I’d always thought IIT was rather ancient, shows what I know.</p>
<p>I browsed the CMU site back when I was filling out apps. Quit when I realised that there was no aid offered – can’t afford college on my own! (Not a bad site as college sites go, though.)</p>
<p>And issac – yes, that was a good prediction! :D</p>
<p>Does anybody feel I should continue “Diatribe on English”? Or was that enough of a rant already? 
:D</p>
<p>I think you made your point, Shrivats. 
(Though I’ve noticed that my English has deteriorated rather since I moved to India, myself. Bloody CBSE!)</p>
<p>And my other prediction for the twins is also true…so congrats twins for CMU…</p>
<p>Noldo: if u dont mind…remove those last two words…</p>
<p>I thought so too. Relentless pandering on grammar can be so wearying at times can’t it?</p>
<p>Speaking of wearying, it’s almost a perfect cycle now isn’t it?</p>
<p>the 28th, 29th, 30th and the 1st all have decisions. Now we’ve just got to wait for the 31st and then that’s it. </p>
<p>(I’ve been re-reading my Dune books, hence the cyclical view. ;))</p>
