<p>BUMP! 3 weeks now.</p>
<p>I can’t believe it’s even fewer than 3 weeks!!</p>
<p>I’m dying i’m dying the wait is killing me. my stomach hurts so bad.</p>
<p>It’s amazing how this threads already existed for 30 days!! We can make it 20 more days :)</p>
<p>I had a dream that I got accepted to Andover with full financial aid. Now I’m terrified that I jinxed it :(</p>
<p>I just looked at some of the posts, and I’m worried about how my life would be like if I went to Andover… What do you guys think?</p>
<p>In all honesty, I think if I were to get accepted to Andover I’d toughen through whatever type of life I’d have to ‘endure’. The school offers an education that money can’t buy, so I’d gladly disregard ‘how my life would be like’ for the opportunity to learn among the best and brightest of our future. Quality of life comes second to opportunity for me.</p>
<p>Thank you for that! It’s what I have been telling myself but I thought I was being irrational, but the way you put it really helped reinforce my notion that it would be worth it :)</p>
<p>Guys, don’t worry about it until you’ve got your decision. You don’t want to build up emotions and then have them crushed by a rejection. Just my two cents.</p>
<p>To quote C. S. Lewis; “Don’t let your happiness depend on something you may lose.” Or never get…</p>
<p>^ It makes you remember that these schools aren’t perfect, not nearly, and that you’ll encounter new issues there as well.
I love PostSecret, although it can be a little scary at times.</p>
<p>^The imitating confused me. I thought it was a bit ■■■■■-y for a decent member.
The validity of that site has been brought up before, but I think it’s a good idea to see things like that so you aren’t expecting a utopia at bs.</p>
<p>19 days left! I can’t believe we’re so close! :D</p>
<p>Just to clarify that wasn’t me posting. It was some ■■■■■ who was imitating my name. Sorry for any confusion.</p>
<p>@Silverstag yeah I noticed someon was Silvertag and you’re Silverstag. Don’t worry!</p>
<p>What does it mean to go to a “prep school”, how are they different from other normal schools, and what are the advantages?</p>
<p>So close yet so far… how are you guys passing time?</p>
<p>How are you passing your time?</p>
<p>I’m not… it feels like it’s been 9:15 PM for the last hour.</p>
<p>The Waiting Game, GoldenRatio Style (Yes, I just used a Gangnam Style reference. I need help ASAP!)</p>
<p>1) Going onto CC for 5+ hours a day
2) Dancing while jiggling an iPhone in one hand, turned to the CC app
3) Playing in the orchestra with an iPhone propped up on the stand; again, turned to the CC app
4) Participating in the school play with dog-eared and well loved lookbooks stuffed into my backpack
5) Doodling pictures of me in a boarding school while math teacher is droning on and on about systems of equations</p>
<p>It’s very productive, don’t you think? :D</p>
