Religion
Unless you're one of the twelve chaplain's associates on campus, you came to Carleton College because you're an open-minded atheist who fills in the 'religion' slot on Facebook with "LOLZ". Quit beating around the bush and let's say what we mean: you're majoring in Southeast Asian Bits of Wisdom That Are Easy to Quote and Don't Conflict with Laws of Physics.
Asian Studies
The rest of campus is well aware that the common ChristoJudeoIslamicisms aren't trendy enough for your Yogalates/Herb-infused lifestyle, and actually, everyone secretly wishes they could be as exotic as you in every aspect of their lives. But instead of wallpapering our dorms with mystic waterfall posters or handpainted calendars outlined in Confucianisms, we celebrate our Asian mystique by watching anime.
Environmental Studies
Here's what happened: someone got you to watch An Inconvenient Truth and Planet Earth. You fell in love with saving the precious world we live in. You took Intro Bio and realized you suck at science. You suck at labs. You suck at the facts. But you LOVE THE NATURAL WORLD WITH ALL YOUR BEING and nothing is going to stop you from patching up the ozone layer and building schools out of recycled Lipton bottles! Nothing.
French
Ever since you got back from the Paris study-abroad program, you realized several things. 1. Smoking isn't stupid if you're foreign. 2. Making snotty remarks about American fashion and the way no one make coffee the right way can be more than a hobby.. it can be the focus of your liberal arts education!

Hi, I Go To Carleton
Activites: playing frisbee, calling frisbees "discs", substituting the word "awkward" with "quirky", being quirky, bragging about being quirky, saving the planet, getting naked, putting up ten million flyers all around campus about how sustainability and being GREEN is the new Jesus, putting annoying "I can't even tell that I'm being funny, that's how effing down-to-earth and quirky I am" ads on the NSB, eating granola, drinking my weight in tea
Interests: humanitarian efforts that reach out to far, far away dirty-looking countries filled with orphans and lice, Macbooks, half-soy-half-skim white mochas, politics, rainbow rights, recycling, exotic Eastern religions, sushi, awkward poster art, awkward/quirky poster art, China, floor life
Music: Timbaland's Apologize, Celtic stuff, stupid weird (QUIRKY!) crap you've never heard of, which makes it even cooler
Movies: It's cool to ditch movies halfway through to look for Schiller, UNLESS I'm watching The Dark Knight. hands off, quirkoids.
CARLETON COLLEGE, YOU ARE SO MINDBLOWINGLY ANNOYING AND I CAN'T WAIT TO HATE YOU IN PERSON IN ONLY 19 DAYS!! :) :) :) !!
And September 25th, my heart belongs to you. This is serious though.
