<p>i completely agree saer. and lol, that’d be nice to have an admissions officer say that. and the fresh start thing! i’d love to have that. some of my classmates know of my… troubled past, lol.</p>
<p>Haha, troubled past. You have no idea. My parent’s divorce was hard on me but not in the rebellious, angry way you’d think. I just ended up so weirdly smart and socially inept that people remember me as the freaky kid. Yep.</p>
<p>i’m known for being violent in the lower grades, and believe me, not in a minor sense. it’s completely rumor though, lol.</p>
<p>Ouch, haha!
I need the fresh start. I’ve wanted to leave my current school for almost… 5 years now. Always said I’d leave for high school, couldn’t. Now boarding school has become a major opportunity.</p>
<p>just wondering, did you apply last year? i believe you’re applying for 10th? /correct me if i’m wrong/</p>
<p>i know. i’m so sick of kids labeling me as crazy and other stuff, lol. i have a master plan to have the perfect time a boarding school, if i get accepted that is.</p>
<p>I tried to apply late last year in late January, but my mom hated the idea of my leaving. So I stopped the process, and let it drop with my mom. Until August last year, when I brought up Exeter again (it was the FA that brought me into the boarding school world in the first place, it was a news story on my home page). Then it just… grew from there, I guess. Once she was open to just “applying then seeing what happens”, I quickly pushed her into 4 schools. After the first visit, she was just like, “You need to apply to more schools.”
Her opinion on boarding school has changed from “No way.” to “No…” to “Let’s just apply.” to “Let’s apply, maybe if you get FA.” “If you get full FA, you’re going.” ITS AWESOME.</p>
<p>21 dayssssssssss</p>
<p>same thing happened to me as well. at first my mom was totally turned off by the idea, saying it was for (no offence to anyone) rich kids. but once i showed her the college matriculations, the beautiful campuses, and all the oppurtunites i could partake in, she was totally on board.</p>
<p>21 days, 3 weeks. almost in the teens. scary. :O</p>
<p>omg… i wasn’t flipping out too much before, but now i realized we only have THREE WEEKS!!!
pretty scary…
do you think that the admissions reached their decisions yet?
i mean, there’s only 3 weeks left and all…</p>
<p>hmmm, i’d think they’d have already seperated the applications into piles of not accepted, accepted for sure, and uh, questionable, i guess? or something like that. i don’t think they’ve reached their decisions yet, as it’d be pretty pointless to make us wait three weeks for the decision. unless admissions officers love to keep kids constantly on the edge of their seats, then yeah. </p>
<p>and think, tomorrow it’ll be 2 weeks and 6 days.</p>
<p>I’m excited!</p>
<p>to think, many of our decisions are set, and thus our fates are already determined. It’s like predestiny…0000000HHHHHH00000000000</p>
<p>wow… I’m bored and I need to get a life</p>
<p>20 dayssssssssssssss</p>
<p>tomorrow we’ll be in the teens. scary. :o</p>
<p>how many people are on vacation at the moment? if you are, how is your vacation going? what’re you doing?</p>
<p>tomorrow we’ll be in the teens. scary. </p>
<p>^ i remember someone said that last year XD</p>
<p>i wonder if they got in… /goes to check last year’s thread./ </p>
<p>yes, i’m paranoid. [:</p>
<p>I’m on vacation! It sucks, because we have play rehearsal for hours upon hours every day. It’s free tanning week and my mom won’t take me, and it’s my birthday next week and I can’t get any presents because of my pre-set stipulation that presents will wait ten days for admissions decision.</p>
<p>(I’m not some super-tan valley girl, by the way. I have a skin condition which causes me to break out in acne -not gross acne though- on my arms. It’s worse during the winter, because a nice tan and high moisture clears it up. I was told to go tanning every once in a while by my doctor.)</p>
<p>yayayayaya I think most schools have come to their decision because they half to get all the packages and letters together as well as the financial aid packages. Think about it, they can’t get the financial aid awards together without knowing who is accepted first.</p>
<p>Yikes, they’re already halfway-to-near-completion with our files. That’s scary to the max.</p>
