Hi Nadia ( ... )

a typo of my own -- "buy" in the next-to-last paragraph should be "but"

portiblelog January 3 2007, 03:43:25 UTC

All taken to heart and implemented. See how grammar turns to putty when you're gone? See?????

danmazur January 3 2007, 20:17:25 UTC

Am I gone? That's funny, I thought I was here.

Because I've been locked away completing all the applications and now I'm back at work. But soon, I promise.

are you submitting this as a piece of creative writing or your college essay?

portiblelog January 4 2007, 06:41:36 UTC

Either way, what did you think?

bornagain_cynic January 4 2007, 10:13:54 UTC

better as the former.

I think it needs to be creative writing because of the length, but if NYU or Columbia has the right prompt it could be a college essay. Amazing writing, Nadia, as always. I too am going through college processes, let me know how it goes.

Thanks for reading, Zohar.

What schools are you looking into?

alethia_lyra January 15 2007, 19:11:53 UTC

The depressing 10 school list:
Amherst
Swarthmore
Dartmouth
Wesleyan
Vassar
UC berkeley
UCLA
UCSC
Scripps
Soka school of America

I can't believe I actually did that many applications, but I did, and all that remain are the financial aid forms.
