only CU...
thats the only school i wanna get in too

hope you get good news when you go to your mail man

NY has a lot of shit to see...
i am not sure whether they still have stuff going on for the 911 site
do you know?

oh
can you believe it
because of CU home test
i left everything behind
shit

no time to do any research
right now
cleaning up all the shit in my appartment
catching homework from highschool (receving some bad grade in highschool, but 4.0/4.0 in college)

just come back from a ASEA meeting
working on a ppt presention for another meeting in college

the only thing we can do is keeping ourselves busy
so that we wont worry too much

by the way, i was on wikipedia until 4am yesterday
searching GSD,SCI ARC,GERHY,THOM MAYne, foster,peter,mies, more and more great......(daydream all night)

I can't believe you only applied to Cooper Union, no backup. I have 4 "backups"--some of which are just as big of a dream as Cooper. I can't believe you mailed it out on the 25th either! It was due on the 25th!

I guess I don't believe much...

...very comforting higherness...

Where do you attend currently?

YEAH, THERE IS COUPLE OF BACKUP
BUT I AM NOT CONSIDERING RIGHT NOW
BECAUSE THEY ARE ALWAYS WELCOME ME ---
CITY COLLEGE IN TEXAS OR STAY IN LA

i guess what i got is some BS confidence

Doris Day
Que Sera Sera

When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother, what will I be
Will I be pretty, will I be rich
Here's what she said to me.

Que Sera, Sera,
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours, to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be.

When I was young, I fell in love
I asked my sweetheart what lies ahead
Will we have rainbows, day after day
Here's what my sweetheart said.

Que Sera, Sera,
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours, to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be.

Now I have children of my own
They ask their mother, what will I be
Will I be handsome, will I be rich
I tell them tenderly.

Que Sera, Sera,
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours, to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be.

hostelNY

present, i got 1880 on the sat.
how did you fare?

around 1300, something below average
you are really a strong opponent.
is that why you dont get nervous..
i am super nervous,couldnt sleep, couldnt eat
the feeling is after-saying-i-love-you-to-first-love
AND WAITING FOR HER REPLY
oh my god////

[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vm9rLUDdCsE]So long, I've been looking too hard, I've been waiting too long
Sometimes I don't know what I will find, I only know it's a matter of time
When you love someone, when you love someone
It feels so right, so warm and true, I need to know if you feel it too

Maybe I'm wrong, won't you tell me if I'm coming on too strong
This heart of mine has been hurt before, this time I wanna be sure

I've been waiting for a girl like you to come into my life
I've been waiting for a girl like you, your loving will survive
I've been waiting for someone new to make me feel alive
Yeah, waiting for a girl like you to come into my life

You're so good, when we make love it's understood
It's more than a touch or a word can say
Only in dreams could it be this way
When you love someone, yeah, really love someone

Now I know it's right, from the moment I wake up till deep in the night
There's nowhere on earth that I'd rather be than holding you tenderly

I've been waiting for a girl like you to come into my life
I've been waiting for a girl like you, your loving will survive
I've been waiting for someone new to make me feel alive
Yeah, waiting for a girl like you to come into my life

I've been waiting, waiting for you, ooh, I've been waiting
I've been waiting
(I've been waiting for a girl like you, I've been waiting)
Won't you come into my life?[/url]

Think of my major advantage over you: I have spoken English for 17 years, the last 4 of which I have been in "advanced" classes (a-la IB.)

i am thinking where is my confidence from...
having a really low GPA, less than 3.0 i guess
sat1320, act 22, all of those are below average
i think this is why i feel DEPRESSED right now

but i

If only they would do interviews, and review portfolio's. That would surely benefit me.

me2...
do you think they will interview anyone?
they never see our resume and portfolio.

do they interview freshman applier?
or transfer too?

I only know they do interviews for appliers
but dont know details about it

they don't do any interviews, freshman or transfer.
you will get something in the mail circa April 4 with an answer.
scary.

omg...higherness, gyo, uhhhhh
good luck
let us pray

I remember long time ago they do do interviews
o well..

april 4... sh*ttttttt...
heaven or hell huh...

present,
what are you expecting when you visit CU in your break trip?

i expect to enjoy my trip - which is hard
(off topic)




i expect to see the school's environment
but i know i am gonna love it
i came from HK, love big cities, love the place of life

the place of life is great.

12 days form the last response...
hows everyone?

UGH. any word?

still nervous,still couldnt sleep well

lol. my nervousness has generally died down. it still comes now and then and i'm sure once march comes to an end, i will be on the edge of my seat each day.

i couldnt feel my confidence, all my plans stop because of it
i was going to get a car, moved somewhere, new laptop...
but now, not until the anounment.
btw, i am going to the east on friday.

i know. i'm kind of in the same place. i had all of these big plans that were to start after submitting my hometest; instead, i've been a lazy hag and manage only to go to work and back.

.... with a messy room, right?

OMG! let's not even talk about my apartment. it looks like a volcano hit. even the appliances in the kitchen are scattered haphazardly. hopefully i'll become disgusted enough with myself that i'll do something about it.

hopefully.

messy room, files in harddrive are out of place, messy note in sketchbook


i have a habit, putting notes on a paper during the class, and then go home organize it alittle bit, rewrite it on my sketchbook with correct spelling. study it at the same time

guess what








for the last 3weeks, i had written down more than 10 pages of note from history of architecture,
but i havn't re-write on my sketchbook yet. so lazy....

is this familiar to you?
im re-reading it
hope that it wont take me another 7 years to finish b.arch

lol i hear you. i have some duplicates of the hometest stored in a big fed ex envelope, and i find myself frantically looking for it and pulling everything out to see what i did. i have scoured my written questions for grammatical and spelling errors, and have critiqued my work to the ground. this is craziness. aaaahhhhh!!!!

i should have done this , i should have done that...

but i really shouldnt had done is "write everything by hand" w/ poor architectural writing



sorry for low resolution, dont wanna show too clear

as you can see
i made changes at the last mintues.
i dont have any correction-pens (white out)

it does get overwhelming when the thoughts of 'shouldve/couldve/wouldve' kick in.

i guess at this point, we hope for the best and learn from our mistakes??

any idea on when letters are sent out?

last year, ppl received it 4/4/07
but someone said 4/1
i will be on the train during 30/03/08~04/02/08
the trians takes forever

uhhhh
where are you gooing to live if you get in?

i have no clue. i figured i would cross that hurdle upon receiving an acceptance; however, i have a friend that went there and he has suggested a few things. he lived off-campus with a bunch of students in queens and would commute each day. i would rather not commute and live closer to the studio; i figure that it is worth it. i also don't want to take the subway at night. i actually have no real idea at this point. i am sure cooper will provide some suggestions or resources as to where to look for housing.

i would live close to the studio
wanna live in dorm at least one year

yea i kinda feel the same way . . . well if we both get in, we will definitly have to catch up the first day!!!!!

i am thinking going to Wash DC for one day...

I have my entire test (full size photocopies) hanging on my wall as we speak. I digress toward them every night, about 5 times on average.
