<p>hello, i have made it to February! yay!</p>
<p>I'm guessing a lot of schools email you. Like they don't email you the decision, but a link to the decision (some don't, I think Emma Willard just emailed them. But I doubt you could tell prior to reading the email whether you've been accepted or not)
of course, places like choate have their own section accessible by the many angsty teenaged overachievers of the world</p>
<p>35 dayssssssssss</p>

I wish I had a remote control where I could fast forward time. That'd be nice.

<p>Be careful what you wish for!</p>
<p>I can't believe there are only thirty-five days; that totally blows my mind! </p>
<p>The greatest way to keep yourself occupied: speech and debate. We have state-qualifying this weekend. I have this weird fear that if I make it to states, I won't get in -- two great things can't possibly happen to me within the same month.</p>
<p>I have been practicing my oboe more in the past two weeks then in the entire year. O.o
mostly because of All county, but also because I have nothing better to do!</p>
<p>Hey guys! good luck! Hope you all get in to the schools you wanted to get into, I know that I was really nervous starting around now. Only around a month of waiting left for you guys!!</p>
<p>Choate is complete! Just got email confirmation. Just FA stuff left, my mmom's doing her taxes tonight, I think.</p>
<p>Exeter, I think, is complete. I forget if they sent confirmation. I called and they said they had everything.</p>
<p>NMH is definitely NOT complete, haha, I just sent my personal statement yesterday and my mom hasn't even done the parent statement. But their deadline has been EXTENDED, HALLELUJAH!</p>
<p>Andover has been faxed everything! And so it should be compelte... thank god. I just got a call from my guidance counselor, and she faxed everything on its way and spoke to the admissions office. I could kiss her.</p>
<p>only 35 days OMG OMG I can't believe this, it feels so far away. I'm scared</p>
<p>Caaalm. Deep breathes help ;)</p>
<p>Haha the only thing that will help is an acceptance letter ;)</p>
<p>That is VERY true. Don't set yourself up for failure! Monty Python is the cure of all cures for this. :D</p>
<p>almost 34 dayssss</p>
<p>24 days until my birthday! I'm very happy- my birthday is exactly 10 days before acceptance letters. I'm deferring all birthday presents until March 11th, seeing as that's when I'll know if I've been accepted the the majority of my schools. Then my presents are incredibly one-tracked:
Laptop
BS-dress-code clothes
Linen/dorm room stuff
Volleyball gear- If I'm playing at a school with an $800+ million endowment, I want to look sharp!</p>
<p>hahaha thats fun!</p>
<p>Yah! Do you think your guys' parents will get you special stuff as a congratulations? Or will they wait until the summer to buy your boarding school things?</p>
<p>I need new sheets and comforters for my bed at home as well as for my dorm (keep the optimism going...) and my mom won't let me get either of them until march. "We will do that in march as kind of a celebration". I already have most other stuff I'm already at a private day school so the dress code and things like that are pretty similar</p>
<p>february is finally here.....one more month and 10 days to go</p>
<p>Lucky you with the dress code. My average outfit consists of:
Jeans
Belt
Girl-Power Superhero Shirt (One of my faaaves...)
Converse</p>
<p>Not nearly dressy enough...</p>
<p>omg, i just read this feed (not all of it, i am not that much of a creeper!) and WOW. i am feeling the same as all of you and only applying to two schools! ANDOVER AND PEDDIE. i am hoping for andover, but peddie is my backup and would be fine to. i can't believe this is all happening, and i am keeping it a secret from all my friends because i am scared of what they will think. but i know i want to go away. reading this makes me feel less alone, thanks :)</p>
<p>Hahaha, good for you for trudging through this thread. We're all so... Goofy! haha</p>
<p>33 days and 16 hours! lol</p>
