<p>I can't stop checking it, even though I am content with my current admissions results and given up on the ones who haven't gotten back to me. I check all the threads, write stuff and keep this open all day in a tab and go there like it's email or facebook or something... </p>
<p>Hah, I'm not terribly satisfied and hence desperate to know when I can give up hope (cheerful, I know)--but I too am repeatedly refreshing the board to check new messages/find out new information about those damn interview invites.</p>
<p>Yes, addicted as well. I also check thegradcafe.com relentlessly to see if any language stuff shows up. </p>
<p>I haven't heard back at all and this is my last semester as an undergrad; luckily it's kind of easy compared to previous semesters... more time for the forum!</p>
<p>Yes, I'm also constantly trolling CHE, Grad Cafe, and here. I heard from my safety, but I doubt I'll hear from anyone else for another 2-6 weeks at least. It hurts.</p>
<p>The look on my face and my demeanor when I open my email inbox and regular mailbox is probably really entertaining. Everyday (several times a day for the email) it's the same thing - check with a really enthusiastic-eyebrows-up-bright-eyed look, then carry on with shoulders sinking and a far off, zombie-like stare, imagining the day I get some kind of notice.</p>
<p>This and a few other sites are pretty much the only venues for information (and I'm hesitant to call it even that... more like rumor, hearsay and panic), during a period when all anyone wants to is to know something/anything. Haha, and to hear the plight of others going through the same ordeal. We're just moths to the flame... </p>
<p>And yes, I'm posting here at 11:30pm on a Saturday night ;) Addiction indeed.</p>
<p>I checked out the Chronicle of Higher Education forum boards and they are sticklers for perfect grammar. In the ten minutes that I spent sifting through their threads, I found no less than three instances of people being chastised for ending a sentence with a preposition. I think I ll stick to being addicted to this forum only.</p>
