<p>To get us all through this stressful period, here are some practical and wise words of advice. Feel free to contribute other pieces of wisdom.</p>

<p>Build a man a fire, and he will be warm for a night.
Set a man of fire, and he will be warm for the rest of his life.</p>

<p>or he will be in ashes on the floor :smiley: either way works mwa ha ha ha</p>

<p>Haha…reminds me of a bio class impromptu discussion on spontaneous combustion…that was fun. (More fun than the elephantiasis one, anyway.)</p>

<p>:shudder:
kebree! why did you have to bring that up
:vile images:</p>

<p>Ooh, I have 2 good ones that may help us through this tough time (they’re also on my buddy profile):</p>

<p>“To stop where we are is to abandon our high hopes and become suitors to Yale and Harvard for their secondary characters.” ~Thomas Jefferson</p>

<p>“You know how people are. They only recognize greatness when some authority confirms it.” ~Calvin and Hobbes </p>

<p>:) :slight_smile: :)</p>

<p>haha…love the Jefferson one. He was obviously talking about UVa, but still—I’m sure he would have loved Princeton =)</p>

<p>lol, I’m tempted to whip out my copy of This Side of Paradise and give some descriptions of pton, but I think I’ll save that for if I get in. I haven’t finished the book yet, although I started it last year, before I thought about princeton. It’s a sign! It’s a sign! Everything is a sign to me now.</p>

<p>Here’s one for you silmon:
Know your vocab for G’s final.</p>

<p>…
is that a personal message or am I missing something?</p>

<p>Yea, Halloween was a sign, the fact that the only clothes that happen to fit are orange is a sign, the fact that Ukraine’s oposition color is orange is a sign, the fact that the oponents of my school’s team were orange and black is sign. My cat has stripes, like a tiger, it’s a sign.I happen to be wearing anorange t-shirt, that’s a sign. my mom bought oranges and orange is a security level in Bush’s scale, SIGNS EVERY WHERE. Real life symbolism. Hawthorne, eat your heart out. I never understood that saying.</p>

<p>lol I see real princeton signs though. Like the Princeton Laundry truck that passed me twice. Or the commericals from Princeton Ski Shop</p>

<p>yeah, we’re in the same english class (she’s a Yalie)</p>

<p>ooooh
Yalies invading? uh ohz</p>

<p>but Princeton is number 3!</p>

<p>You step into the road, and if you don’t keep your feet, there is no knowing where you might be swept off to</p>

<p>Never fear the shadows,
for all that means is that there is a light shining nearby</p>

<p>I love that one, kayoshin. It is officially quoted.</p>

<p>haha…celebrian, I already knew you were a Lord of the Rings fan =)
(Does it take one to know one?)</p>

<p>celebrian is the name of a lothlorien maid, if i recall (I play Lord of the Rings Trading Card Game).</p>

<p>lol i dont know anything about LOTR</p>
