Rachel Leigh Hall attended CTY Carlisle Session 2 in oh-five, oh-six, oh-seven, and oh-eight. During that time, she took Crafting the Essay A, Intro to Biomed (B, maybe?), Philosophy of Mind B, and Ethics. They were fabulous. Rachel has, in her possession, a watermelon, two yellow, a lime green, and a black lanyard.

In General

I have a tendency to go by the name 'Rae', though my fellow Carlislians know me as Rachel. Or Goldfish. Or the Mad Hatter. Or Pookie. I'm a member of the Cult of Godzilla, and various other nicknames may be found on said page.

The Insanity

I'm rather odd (ODD!) and the words "wonky" (yes, Rae does like bunnies) and "delirium" (yay for redundancy on the bunnies issue) seem to have been made for me. There is as much to know about me from what I don't say as there is from what I choose to say. Most of the stuff I say is mindless babble (see the Starcrash article for an example), so when I'm not saying something, there's a very good chance that it's important.

Rae also has a tendency to switch into the third person, wherein Rae will always refer to Rae's self as "Rae" and never "Rachel" as "Rachel" is far too long for Rae to say. Rae also dislikes heinous pronouns. Rae has an odd (ODD) obsession with parenthetical phrases and italics (look around your world pretty baby) as well as the wonderful Canon-filled world Rae lives in.

Rae is currently majoring in poorly-worded relationship advice with a minor in instant gratification and self-indulgence.

Rae fears failure, and being alone or forgotten.

Rae would like people to stop being cannibals and eating others of Rae's kind, however Rae is aware that this will never happen due to the cheesiness and yumminess of the Snack that Smiles Back.

Rae feels she has given sufficient insight into Rae's personality.

Classes

Crafting the Essay A (ohfive.2) In 2005 (her sperm year), Rachel took Crafting the Essay/Writing A. Her instructor was Chris and her TA was Julie. People seem to not believe her that Julie was a TA. She was. She ate souls. On a scale of 1-5, Writing A was a 5, for several reasons. The small class size (7; 3 girls and 4 boys) meant a much more personal learning experience, the combination of instructor and TA was incredibly productive and well-done.

Introduction to the Biomedical Sciences (ohsix.2) 2006 brought about the advent of Biomed. There are not many nice things to be said about Biomed. The curriculum was repetitive, the students were cliqueish, and the instructor was FAIL. The instructor for this section of Biomed was Shashi, and the TA was Christine. Christine was awesome, but Shashi was really suckish, and her reviews reflected it. A scale of 1-5: 2.

Philosophy of the Mind B (ohseven.2) 2007 was awesome in terms of classes. Rachel and Reggie began crafting the clever scheme to take the same class in ohsix, and over the course of the following year, the plan had evolved so that Reggie, Tigg, Danny, Tory, Bess, Sharon, Olivia, and Crystal would all take it. The instructor was Brad Majors, who, ironically, had never seen Rocky Horror, and who also hated small children. The TA was Laura Specker, who was made of awesome. Interesting subject matter, and a good, albeit a bit strict, instructor. 4.

Ethics (oheight.2) 2008, the nomore year, notably, was wonderful in terms of classes. Easily Rachel's favorite, though she was at least a year older than everyone else in the class. Great group of kids. Instructor, Mark, was fantastic and nice and incredibly knowledgable. Carly, the TA, was also made of awesome. Brilliant subject matter, great instructor, great kids. 5.
