EA Catharsis Thread

<p>tlak, i left you some peek info on the Gtown EA stuff in the Parents Forum. It made me feel better, at least.</p>

<p>Well, I'm in the library right now during my lunch break, wondering if it will ever be 3:15 so I can get home to the mailbox. I assume it's already sitting there; I don't think I can wait another day if it's not.</p>

<p>I'll be back on around 5ish (EST) to post what happened. 'Till then, wish me luck. :)</p>

<p>Tlak- I'm so glad you're not too too upset. As everyone else has said, you have a great chance RD. I'm really pulling for you. (And my guess is that the vote was 3-4. You are <em>definitely</em> a strong applicant)</p>

<p>Chin up, Mr. "Still a Hopeful Hoya!!"<br>
Lauren </p>

<p>Oh and Josh, I have my fingers crossed!!! I can't wait to hear from you- remember to breathe (I sort of forgot when I saw the mailman come)</p>

<p>Congratulations, redr002!!! I'm so happy for you!!!! Hopefully we'll get to meet at Gtown!!! </p>

<p>:)</p>

<p>Thanks Lauren. My mom started crying she was so happy for me! This has been the best news. I feel like skydiving!</p>

<p>I totally know that feeling!! I'm still feeling like that and I got the letter yesterday!!!</p>

<p>Oh well. I received that unpleasant ultra-thin envelope containing only one piece of white paper. :(</p>

<p>I'm taking it a lot better than I had hoped. Luckily, I was very busy right after I found out, so it's very gradually sunk in. It does suck, but there are several other really good schools I'm applying to that I'd love to attend (and actually have a shot at!).</p>

<p>I'm definitely going to do all I can to get in April, though. I still have a chance. :)</p>

<p>Anyway, it's been a great couple of months hanging out with you guys, and I'm really happy for those who got in. I'm probably going to go on a little break from this board so I can focus on my other apps, but I'll be back in April for the RD letters. I'm going to hang around for the next week or so as I try to figure out what to send G-town in preparation for the RD round.</p>

<p>Thanks again for all your help. :)</p>

<p>Ohhh no, josh. I'm so sorry. Argh it makes me so mad that Georgetown can overlook so many qualified applicants. :(</p>

<p>If there's anything I can do to help, let me know. Don't give up hope about RD- you still have a great shot! I'm glad you're taking this decently, though. </p>

<p>I'm probably going to take a very long CC break too, but only after I finish all my apps. I totally understand where you're coming from about taking the break, though. Good luck with everything and it's been totally awesome hanging out with you! And seriously, let me know how I can help.</p>

<p>Lauren</p>

<p>Thanks Lauren. :)</p>

<p>i'm not giving up, i just keep saying "I'll get in"</p>

<p>Good, babybird!! I'm so happy to hear that!! And it's true, too. :)</p>

<p>Josh, you and me (and Nat/Babybird) will be concentrating on getting in for the April cycle. Hopefully, we can join the rest of our CC GUers...That'd be great, right?</p>

<p>No need to search for validation, Tlak. Of course that would be great. In fact, it would be stupendous.</p>

<p>It would be "hella" stupendous. :)</p>

<p>yep..on the list for this week:
1) counselor call
2) write a letter of why im so great they should let me in (lol)
3) send new sat scoress
4) get new recommendations from french teacher and boss who is a georgetown alum</p>

<p>And really, thats all I can do...</p>

<p>thanks, tlak, we must hope for Gtown 09 like never before!</p>

<p>I just got a Student Ambassador position...should I tell Gtown this? and why the heck couldn't they have given me this last year so I could have put it in my app? =)</p>
