Pioneer High School | Class of 2009 | Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA

About me: I'm currently a junior at Pioneer High School. I love reading, writing, scrapbooking, playing the violin, and Indian Classical Dance-Bharatha Natyam. Above all, I have an inherent love for science, medicine and volunteering, especially with the cancer patients I work with in Motts Children's Hospital. I also love volunteering with the Red Cross, where I'm also a board member. I'm also co-founder and director of a nonprofit group, D.E.S.H.

How would I move Mount Fuji: Through various art forms, Mount Fuji could be moved. Photography and dance would allow this mountain to come alive anywhere at any time. Literally moving the mountain would mean destroying its natural beauty, but through art, the mountain would retain its natural state and everyone would enjoy it.

Munster High School | Class of 2008 | , ,

About me: The name's Eric. I'm random. I'm unique. I love DECA (State President), SciOly (Captain), StuGov (VP), Ron Paul, and Camp Tecumseh. If I could fuse Chemistry with Business, I would in a heartbeat. I really like music, especially Rick Astley, Coldplay, John Mayer, and any kind of electronica. I like meeting people and believe in second chances. My biggest pet peeve is when people try to judge me without getting to know me. I love life and seize every moment and opportunity available to me. I love running, swimming, cycling, and wakeboarding. I stay healthy and keep my life drug-free. :-)

Activities: Randomness, Running, Biking, Swimming, Wakeboarding, Music, Movies, Working at Camp Tecumseh, Taco Bell runs at 2 AM, Speeding, Wearing Flip Flops, Drinking Propel, Old School Nickelodeon, Techno Dance Parties, Road Trips, Chilling at the Beach, Orange Mocha Frappucinos, Loving Life, Staying Classy

How would I move Mount Fuji: Two words: Chuck Norris.

If you ask me, Aparna may have deserved a higher seed. You know she's playing with a chip on her shoulder. By his looks, Eric isn't worried one bit.

I'm a Americorps member at the Red Cross Chapter that Aparna volunteers at and I have the highest regard for her intelligence and abilities. She also has a real love for service, which is an even more rare and valuable characteristic. She will do some fantastic things for society someday so everone should keep on voting and put her at the top.

Aparna isn't pretentious. She is talented, kind, and genuine. And the word "the," is spelled...well...just like that. Just to add a bit of constructive criticism.

Aparna is NOT obnoxious. Gosh, how can people be so shallow? She is very humble and down to earth and not pretentious. Her credentials and great attitute tell us a lot. She truely DESERVES this scholarship. Please do not worry about negative comments Aparna. You WILL continue to get plenty of votes. Good luck!!!

DUDE Aparna TOTALLY deserves this, she is so hard-working, and you will NOT regret voting for her. She's already accomplished a substantial amount, just think of what she could do with the scholarship money. MOVE MOUNTAINS, I tell you! ;-) <3

Who deserves it? Who do I like better? 1.Someone who really needs the money (not that everyone doesn't) and isn't being offered scholarships already. 2.Aparna(because I actually know her), but Eric sounds cool.But this shouldn't be based on paticular liking.But Aparna does have a chip on her shoulder.

Aparna's prolly gonna get into wherever she wants anyway, so why bother even doing this?????

Aparna, you sound amazing. good luck

Eric is a much better candidate than Aparna. From his simple description, anyone can see that he is more artistic and has much more of a life. I personally know aparna, and she is the epitome of a nerd and wrote all that bull just to look good. Go eric.

Oh yeah. 50 Bucks says Aparna has no idea what march madness even is, the theme of this tournament.

Yes, I do know what March Madness is. I may not know all the teams playing and the like, but I am fully aware of what March Madness is, and I think that was a creative way of running this tournament! Thank you to all the other kind comments!!! =)
