<p>And you should write "Viva la FARC" not "Viva la Columbia." </p>
<p>And in terms of Beatles, I suggest "Eleanor Rigby" if you want to cry with a rejection, "Yellow Submarine" if you want to feel like a headless chicken, and "Tomorrow Never Knows" if you want to feel like there's more to life. But then after "Tomorrow Never Know" finishes, the CD will go back to track one, and you'll be too numb from the pain of rejected to stop it from going right on to track two, "Eleanor Rigby," and then you'll just end up crying after your 4 minute, 2 song long false-epiphany that there's more to life. :D</p>
<p>Osheezie: It's (almost certainly) not possible we'll find out Thursday. You should be able to call up DHL on Monday night and find out if there's a package headed your way though....</p>
<p>I don't want a song that's too sad, but I don't want one that's too happy either, so that's why I chose "Here Comes the Sun." It's the sort of song you can cry/mope to, but it's still uplifting to a certain degree, and it's also happy, so it works in case of a rejection, deferral, or acceptance.</p>
<p>I'm wondering whether I'll be alone or not when I get the email/check online...My sister has an appointment Tuesday afternoon (that my Dad will go along to) that I think will be done by 5, but I'm not certain. I hope I'll be alone, because then I can mope/feel sorry for myself by myself and compose myself a bit more before my Dad and sister get back. I don't want to ask though, because I haven't told them about the Tuesday date yet, and the pressure of them knowing the exact time I'd find out whether I was accepted/rejected/deferred would make me more nervous and would make things worse if I got rejected.</p>
<p>Have you all told your family and/or friends yet? And are you going to read the email/check online by yourself, with a friend/family member to support you, or what?</p>
<p>I only told my dad, because my mom does NOT want me to go to school in NYC. I haven't even told her ED requires that the student goes. If I get in, that will be the fight of the century.
I'll probably check the e-mail alone, but the package/letter is getting mailed to her house. Oops.</p>

My dad knows, but my mom doesn't.
I need a way to break it to her, pronto.
But if I don't get in, it will be a moot point.
But if I do... :/
<p>so yea i didnt see the notice on CU's website till after i posted. at least now we have a near EXACT date. I'm not sure if thats good or bad. regardless, my nervous breakdown is officially in full throttle.</p>
<p>as far as songs go, my reccommendation would be 'man in the box' by alice in chains. that way, if ur rejected then at least you'll pause and be like what the freak am i listening to?? at least im not as **ed up as these guys, and then you will wallow in self pity.</p>
<p>o nd as far as the method to opening the mail goes, i film everything, so I'm thinking about recording myself. any thoughts? haha</p>
<p>o and am i the only one planning on immediately buying columbia sweatshirts and stuff if i get accepted?
haha and im also curious as to what people's stats are...i'm sure every1 is.</p>
<p>I'm probably just going to buy some books (a couple of the ones ive been wanting to get, and some of the texts used for LitHum), nothing much besides that... The relief of not having to worry about being accepted/rejected all th way until March/April is more than enough for me :p</p>
