<p>.....<em>(^</em>&<em>&(#</em>^?! No Andover in NYC yet.........</p>
<p>The UPS truck passed by my house.</p>
<p>What madness is this? :rolleyes:</p>
<p>i have NO idea</p>
<p>Mom's advice:</p>
<ol>
<li>breathe (that means in and out, not holding!)</li>
<li>drink a cup of hot tea</li>
<li>stretch and walk around your house (I realize you can't leave the premises!)</li>
<li>watch jackass on MTV to remind yourself of just how smart you are!</li>
<li>take a shower</li>
<li>take another breath. :)</li>
<li>repeat steps 1 through 6.</li>
</ol>
<p>DAD'S ADVICE:</p>
<p>Y'all need to get yourselves some shotguns to blow out the tires of these UPS trucks you're just letting drive right by your homes. All of you SAY you want to go to BS, but you're not bringing your "A" game, are you? Be honest with yourselves...because if you REALLY wanted to go as badly as you say you do, that truck would be standing still, the driver would be running zig-zags for cover, and you'd be inside rifling through packages to find one for you...but NOOOOO...you let it get away and are at your computer whining about it.</p>
<p>Carpe diem. Carpe UPSem.</p>
<p>And that, in a nutshell, is the difference between men and women! :)</p>
<p>thanks , d'yer maker .
if anything , i needed a laugh .</p>
<p>Anyone have a shotgun? :)</p>
<p>nope . i have a popgun i used in a play .
& i did run outside the minute i saw it , but it went too far for me to run after it.</p>
<p>I don't even have a horse in this race and I'm sick to my stomach! Deliver the darn packages already!!!!!! No skinny envelopes allowed for CC members. That should be a member benefit.</p>
<p>is there even a slight chance that if we get nothing today, an envelope is coming tomorrow ?</p>
<p>I havn't got Andover's letter in the normal mail today, I don't get UPS on Saturday's, and the UPS truck hasn't come by my house yet, and it does every week day, a live in a relatively large suburban neighborhood, DOES THAT MEAN I GOT IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D HOLY CRAP, I'm probably just over reacting. I live about 50 minutes away, and I got every other school in the mail, those that were farther away, already!! WOOOOOO! I'm like panicking, however , I'm sure I'm just getting excited over nothing.</p>
<p>I know many over-qualified applicants that are in the EXACT, EXACT boat as you right now. I think that no news IS good news...</p>
<p>If you follow D'yer's advice you'll be in boarding school - but of a totally different kind. And you'll be starring in your own MTV show - Juvies - instead of watching Jackass! :)</p>
<p>There are many paths to freedom. One of them is through the state pen.</p>
<p>:P
that's an interesting perspective.
i don't want to go to boarding school THAT much .</p>
<p>apparently, nobody is rejected or waitlisted from andover yet...=(</p>
<p>okay i see that no one has been rejected or waitlisted, but has anyone been admitted?</p>
<p>Andover - received on Sat by FedEx
Exeter - today by Express Mail</p>
<p>(location- Mid-Atlantic)</p>
<p>Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose. J. Joplin</p>
