thoughts on my first term of college

Dec 06, 2004 13:10

I just turned in my take home final (and have no more academic duties!), had lunch (and still have money on my dba!) and mailed all my xmas cards (yes, it's a bit early, but be merry!). The scene in my room is very peaceful-everything is packed, neat and organized. I am essentially ready to go. I also don't have much to do, so I am going to put ( Read more... )

I applied here b/c I decided to throw out my Harvard app...

a very good choice :)

Even the way they call “prefrosh” is different here and way cuter (they are called prospies)!

at MIT we call them pre-frosh, because we KNOW they're going to pick us. they're not "prospective"; they're coming! :)

Yeah, I really liked Hanover too when I stayed there for the summers. I don't really know why I didn't apply- I think I thought Dartmouth would be too small, and that there wouldn't be anything to do up there. It seems like a really nice town where everyone knows each other (which could get kind of claustrophobic, of course). Still, I'm glad you like it, even if it is COLD and you have to wear ugly SNOW BOOTS.

How warm is it in Miami? I don't think I could deal with living someplace that didn't have seasons. Oh well. Have a good trip home!

I had gotten in already when I came. Just accept it! PROSPIES is cuter!!!

Yes, it's a bit small but there are TONS of things to do. It's hard to believe, I know.

It's in the 70's in Miami. YAY!!! What are you talking about? Miami has seasons! We have the wet season AND the dry season. So BAM! =)

See you soon!!!! =)

HEEEEYY!! HOW ARE YOU!?!?!?!? I had NO idea you visited Dartmouth (I am a dork indeed and should probably keep in touch with more Miami High people)!!! You NEED to talk to me online so that I can convince you to come here! =) Do you have my sn? If not Guillermo has it. Ms. V is having me do some sort of college forum or something like that and I'm sure I'll pass by MHS sometime soon. The polar bear swims are a little scary....IT'S COLD MAN!!! SEe yah!!!
