<p>i can't sleep at night, im just waiting for this letter.
i freak out all day too. and i know I've done everything possible, and just have to wait it out. </p>
<p>It's killing me. Part of my wants to get it right now! But then if it's a rejection letter I don't want it.</p>
<p>ahhh! i can't wait until April!</p>
<p>Lol I am in the same boat as you. I contemplating whether I should send in an update letter of my activities and an essay I submitted to an essay contest to one of the admissions representatives. Bottom line is, I am losing my mind...</p>
<p>AC419 given the recent student death at ND, you might want to rethink your thread title. Bit inappropriate and insensitive right now- don't ya' think ?</p>
<p>I don't know South Jersey, that was a few weeks ago and the OP may not even have known about it. If you live on-campus, sure you know about it, but I can tell you the only reason I know about it is because I check this board daily. If you don't do that, you may not know.</p>
<p>If it is still inappropriate and insensitive right now, when will it be appropriate? I have had suicide in my family and now I am a suicide researcher, so I notice all the time when people say things like "I could have killed myself" or "I wanted to kill myself" just in everyday situations. They don't mean it, I know that, but it is just the way people talk (for better or for worse). The deaths were at least a week ago, the OP may not have known, I don't see it being so egregious. That may just be me, however</p>
<p>I understand your point Irish, just that in regards to feeling anxious, nervous and excited as one awaits the ND decisions, it seems an unusual "title" for this thread.</p>
<p>I am sure the OP meant no harm, but wanted to point out to him, that others may see it as I did when I read it this AM, and a bit insensitive to a tragedy which recently occured on campus, and the pain is still fresh in many students and parents minds.</p>
<p>AC419--Hang in there! Everything will work out for the best--I know it sounds cliche, but have a little faith. Just think in one year, you could be sitting on campus pulling your hair out over mid-terms right now. It's tough for everyone!!</p>
<p>put your mind to something else.</p>
<p>Agree with notre dame Al; you have probably gotten more sleep than me this week.</p>
<p>Oh my gosh South Jersey Mom, I am so sorry to offend you in anyway. I didn't even realize that I was offending anyone! It was late last night after I had done homework, spent 3 hours at a band concert, and had a church meeting -- long day. </p>
<p>I can't edit it anymore, but I would definitely change the title.</p>
<p>I truly did not mean to be insensitive.</p>
<p>Oh, and I'm a girl by the way :)</p>
<p>and thanks everyone! I try to forget about it, but as the day approaches I think about it more and more :(</p>
<p>I really think some people are over-reacting to the title. </p>
<p>that being said, you are way over-reacting to the letter, as well. It's a whole month and a half away. go make cookies or something.</p>
<p>I'm going crazy too AC419!!! I'm also freaking out that I will be gone on spring break when the letter arrives and it will got lost somehow!!! ddahhh</p>
<p>I have been cheering all week for our student in the middle of mid-terms at ND right now--so I will cheer for you as well. I certainly hope the best for all of you--think positive thoughts!!!!</p>
<p>The other night I had a dream I got an acceptance letter earlier than everyone else. I woke up thinking it was true! It was the happiest morning of my life.. until I woke up and realized it was a dream. Sighhh I cannot WAIT</p>
<p>I didn't hear about the death, sorry to those affected by it :( in my prayers</p>
<p>I have dreams where i get accepted, and then dreams where i get rejected.</p>
<p>ahhh!! i want to find out so badly, and then I don't want to find out at all. </p>
<p>How many more days?</p>
<p>school is sooo meaningless to me right now, except it's the time i get to daydream that its already april... i'm heading toward my mailbox... i open it to find a package... AHH!</p>
<p>ya, Im freaking out just like you guys.</p>
<p>My other acceptance letters help calm me down though.</p>
<p>Tell me about it...</p>
<p>Let's just say that my D, who is waiting to hear, has become very, very, helpful and now brings the mail in for me every day! In fact, she gets very irate if anyone touches it before she does. I tell her it is silly, she will not hear from any of her top schools until April, but she is still doing it.</p>
<p>Tim_ND08 - where else did you get accepted?</p>
<p>Haha, Tim, I saw you got admitted to $C...thought you were a ND boy?</p>
<p>this is a long, painful process. Does anyone know when we RDers get our letters? Prob sent out like april 1st, so maybe a couple days after that... sigh</p>
<p>^^^That's correct, they're mailed 4/1</p>
