Writing college essays! Ask me anything

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

I don't typically do these "ask me anything" threads... and I'm writing my college application essays... but I'm done for the night, pretty much. Ask me questions because I'm still up :)

Fire away!

Could you tell me why?

6. I do not know, Kleebian.

I think it's natural circadian rhythms that make us stay up this late.

[JohnKleeb]

[Zomby Woof]

20. it's VERY SANE

You would LOVE how easy the Lounge is to navigate now. And it keeps my mood lighter. Very little spam, much less whininess, much less drama. Fewer bipolar wackos with fragile little egos.

You don't know what you're not missing! :D

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

22. Hmm

If you were just going by the bipolar whacko standard, you'd have me on ignore :D

[Zomby Woof]

25. shee-it!

You enjoy THE STORE too much for that! :D

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

12. Nuh uh!!!

You all can write your own essays, dammit! :D

[AlFrankenFan]

15. Where are you applying to? n/t

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

17. The final seven colleges I'm applying to are...

George Washington University
Boston University
New York University
Fordham University
Rochester Institute of Technology
Art Institute of Boston
Corcoran School of Art + Design

For either journalism or photojournalism, depending on the school.

[JohnKleeb]

19. What should I minor in?

Journalism or Psychology.
I am already gonna major in political science, thats a gimme.

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

21. Hmm

That's up to you :)

[JohnKleeb]

23. yeah it is

I am gonna go with the journalism.

[SheilaT]

24. I'd recommend

sociology for your minor. Having taken lots of psych and soc classes, I think you'll get a better perspective on things with sociology. Do take the odd psych class or two -- it's likewise a useful area of knowledge, but trust me on this.

Where are you applying?

I'm going nuts getting my h.s. senior to finish his college apps.

[JohnKleeb]

26. I am going to community college first

but my plan is GWU to transfer in to after a year or two, maybe American, maybe even god forbid GMU, not sure really. But Ive taken courses in both journalism and psychology, I enjoy both, and I have gotten heavy props on my journalistic writing thus far, even am gonna be published I think even though I am not a staff member.
