<p>Hello???</p>

<p>I'm so nervous!!!!</p>

<p>Strong chances at all the schools. Does it really matter what we say though? You'll know in 4 days whether you got in or not.</p>

<p>Sorry Sup...no it doesn't really...and it's my D....I'm trying not to make her nervous by bringing it up (again...)...she seems to be handling it much better than me (from what I can tell from 3000 miles away). I thought maybe it would help me to be better prepared.</p>
