<p>Is anybody else as worked up as I am??
It's 2:05...still no sleep for me :(
i know there's absolutely nothing I can do at this point except sit and wait....but I'm going crazy!!</p>
<p>can u not sleep because of the anxiety of waiting for decisions? If so, all i gotta say is save your anxiety for the 2 weeks b4 March 30th! I remember beginning December 1st, all I can dream about was my EA decision (I used to pace around the house thinking about this). The anxiety starting around mid March will be much more amplified though because of the 10 different colleges from which I will be waiting to hear. Good luck.</p>
<p>Me too. It's 2:12 am right now, and I am working on the last sentence of my English paper. I can't think anymore. Just one more sentence, and I spent last 15 min. playing on my computer. Yeah, I am so good at focusing on my homework :rolleyes:</p>
<p>I can't relate at all...haha...I sort of fell asleep yesterday at 8:00 p.m. I wasn't even tired. Second semester doesn't matter guys! Embrace senioritis! :)</p>
<p>It might sound weird, but I had my scary moment after I found out that I got in. It reminds me of when I found out I won a certain important position at my school. My teacher announced it in a roomfull of all the candidates, and the most nervous I felt was after he said my name because I realized how easy it would have been for him to just say someone else. After I clicked the link on the Yale decision page, I realized that just as easily some other screen could have popped up. It creeped me out how simply it could have gone the complete other way.</p>
<p>^ Interesting. Never thought about that.</p>
<p>filmxoxo makes a very astute point. College admissions, and life in general, is random and often arbitrary. There's really no use in working yourself up for something because you have no idea what to expect. Lao Tzu is your friend-get to know him.</p>
<p>ARGHHH. i know i shouldn't work myself up but i just can't help it!! i've already been accepted to one school that i do like so i know i'm not going to just be a bum for the rest of my life but still!!! hurry up mar 30</p>
<p>Here I am again. I think it has to do with too much caffeine or my procrasination with homework to midnight.</p>
<p>I think I'll start Lent early and abstain from thinking about Yale for the next forty days.</p>
<p>I am finding time going by much more slowly for me than - apparently - for my son, who is the applicant. He seems pretty relaxed; is in 3 schools that he likes; 5 regular admission applications to go including Yale. I am anxious about Yale and a couple of the others. He seems content to know that, no matter what, he has schools in his pocket where he would be happy.</p>
<p>Your son's a smart dude. Don't stress too much about this guys. Yale does NOT need any more overly anxious students, can't you see it's already crammed?</p>
