Pencil crayons? Nam I'm surprised. I always thought that you'd always use wax crayons.

Sarah, i'll apply to MUN but it says you need Math 12. And i'm not taking that bullet.
They dont want me SARAH!!
I have French 12, German 12, Comparitive Civ. 12, English Lit12, Creative Writing12, Biology 12, Acting 12, History 12
AND THEY DONT WANT ME.
They can suck it.
And Also, Alex I thought you said McGill wasnt a hippie school.
I'm obviously applying to both, all three even. I just want to have backup schools that I know about and like.

It's not a hippie school, but I mean there ARE hippies just like every school. There are also a lot of idealistic upper class white kids.

I had the revelation today that I've never felt personally offended by any racist remarks, ever, because I have no idea what colour I am.

If you're European, wouldn't that make you extremely white?

Well, aren't some Europeans darker? I mean...like olive skinned. Maybe you're Italian or something.

No, I'm half Greek.
But my point is, never in my life have I looked at my hands or face and seen "white". It's just not part of my self-identity. But by the same token, I am not brown, since my mother is eastern European and quite fair and my dad is mediterranean and a touch darker than me but obviously not from a "brown" country. And clearly I'm not black or Asian, so... yeah. Half-olive isn't a race

There was a Greek God on my cruise. He had a butt like no other.
I don't look at my hands and think "white" either. I'm pretty dark. But I'm so white.
I seriously need a nap, that did not make any sense.

Its not the upperclass white kids part, I mean, I unfortuneatly am one myself. Its the mindset, "Daddy can buy me this this and this" etc. I just like, for once in my life, want money not to come up in a conversation and then be bragged about.
