Penn Amitted Students Weekend

[dresq]

Just because there isn't a thread for it yet, and it's coming up fairly soon... go.

(I'll be there. )

[quakeroat]

Me too!

[darkarmour]

checking in!

I'll be the asian guy from LA.

Anyone going to the thursday night festivities?

[kurla88]

Hi!

[underachiever]

I'll be there

[noquieromas]

Terrible at both bowling and karaoke, but I'll be there ...

Watch out for flying projectiles and glass-splitting frequencies.

[journogirl]

I will be there too! I look forward to meeting you guys.

[tcortez]

Me too. I'm so looking forward to it.

[facker09]

YEEEPY. I will be there.

[sealrsqr]

I'll be there, but not for bowling or karaoke. Checking out NYU on Thursday. Wish I could do NYU on Friday, too, but then I really wouldn't be doing Penn justice.

[kurla88]

I'm flying in Thursday night, idk if I will make it in time for the activities though.

Are you guys staying with current students? Mine just emailed me, she seems supernice.

[tcortez]

Yea i'm staying with a student. She was actually in a pre-law program with me at UCLA so it will be pretty cool. I can't wait...work goes by quickly when I think of how close I am to getting the heck of of LA.

[nolaben]

count me in... see you all next week!

[southernlady]

I am definitely going too!

I'm already committed to Virginia that weekend, so I'll be looking to all you TLSers to let me know how it went.

Also, does anyone know about/plan to attend the Penn Preview day the week after (the 3rd I think)? I asked about it when I got in, but I was too excited to remember/comprehend the answer...
