<p>This thread lives on guys!</p>
<p>I am going to Nigeria before the summer
then i go to Yale for classes
father said so
that is the downside</p>
<p>in the other news:
He promised to get me a present. I know what it is. a Honda
I am going to Nigeria!!
At long last, I get to have a life!!</p>
<p>Thnxs ChandlerBing…Williams is #1 for me now, though i should probably at least visit …i have not step foot on any campuses yet. i am more of the math/science girl (8oo math SAT/have already taken all of the math classes at my local college), but i am not the <em>math type</em> socially (more like Danica/Winnie) so i am thinking a school like Williams will work. I really don’t want to spend all my time in college studying…as they say life is too short. </p>
<p>I was accepted to Yale Summer school, but I am not sure I can go because it conflicts (by one day) with Girls State ( which is free and more of an <em>honor</em>). I was thinking it would be nice (Yale)for the summer. Sort of the idea of if i can’t have the car at least i could drive it. Again, thnx to all of you…</p>
<p>^ I say go to the summer program.</p>
<p>My own experience with those is that they help with nothing towards admissions…BUT…</p>
<p>They do allow you to take actual college classes (likely taught by a gradstudent/TA instead of a prof though), they do allow you to live in dorms (Yale’s RCs are gorgeous, btw), and they can forge long lasting friendships.</p>
<p>And who knows, if you were to get into Yale, you’d even have some credits under your belt.</p>
<p>^^^ Yay, bluewhitebulldog!</p>
<p>I was supposed to go to Nigeria this summer, too, but due to the economy and other things…my family can’t. I haven’t visited since I immigrated (which was like fourteen years ago). What part of Nigeria are you going? What state(s) do your parents belong to?</p>
<p>I hope you have fun and congrats on getting a car! I have a license but no car, yet…(I mean, I have a car but I’m not allowed to drive it. Sucks!!)</p>
<p>Here’s to being one of the few people who actually understands you!! Haha! :D</p>
<p>Oopsies…double post.</p>
<p>Ahaha it’s alive! :)</p>
<p>nice to have you all back :)</p>
<p>I hate…ok i <em>dislike</em> people when they talk about licences :p</p>
<p>I’m 17 you see
One more year
<em>sniff</em></p>
<p>^ I’m 18 (USA, not India), and I never bothered to get mine.</p>
<p>In all likelyhood, I’ll end up getting it after college.</p>
<p>Ha! Driving is the coolest thing ever…and I’m only seventeen. :)</p>
<p>Here, now do you want to know what gets me mad? I’ve been allowed to drink since I was 16 here in Switzerland, and now, that right will once again be taken from me in the states. Can you believe that?!</p>
<p>I don’t drink, btw. But just knowing that a right that I already have can be taken back, oooh, that gets me mad ;-)</p>
<p>I haven’t ever gotten my licence, either. Tons of public transportation in Switzerland :)</p>
<p>^ I totally can’t find you on facebook. </p>
<p>Like, really…there are a billion ______________'s.</p>
<p>lol, I know, and I’m none of them :)</p>
<p>Hahaha…i had the same problem with her
And the best is half of them don’t have profile pics</p>
<p>Legal drinking age in india is 25
Not that anyone follows it but you know it still sucks</p>
<p>As for driving…my friends drive but the road manners are pathetic here</p>
<p>I’d love to drive on german autobahns though :)</p>
<p>haha prateek :)</p>
<p>yep, german autobahns are awesome, but also quite scary, just so you know ;-)</p>
<p>Scary
Hmm
You should visit india
You’ll realize autobahans are not scary ;)</p>
<p>That being said german sausages are delicious
Sorry</p>
<p>Im just hungry ;)</p>
<p>^ What’s better than being cut off by a massively large ‘lorry’ with “HORN OK PLEASE” and “USE DIPPER AT NIGHT” painted on it?</p>
<p>Driving …on the wrong side of a two way ‘highway’, and narrowly avoiding those same trucks in a small car.</p>
<p>^ Done it.</p>
<p>Haha, No2EULA, how about doing the same thing, but crashing the car, and then writing a college essay about it?</p>
<p>It’d make a ‘compelling’ story…</p>
<p>I’m asking my parents about going to Afghanistan this summer. 1) Personal reasons 2)How badass would that be?!</p>
<p>Lol what’s with the German Autobahn?
Seriously you get used to it.
BTW: I don’t have a driver’s license yet as well.
And like sev I’m allowed to drink since I was 16. If I end up in the states, I definitely won’t miss that. I managed Canada, so I’ll manage the US, too. :D</p>
