<p>It worked for the Monkees...</p>
<p>All I remember about O-Town was that they had a guy named, like, Ashley Angel. Come /on/.</p>
<p>I remember that I had a big crush on Ashley Angel. Now that I think about it, he looked kinda like a pansy. </p>
<p>Is O-town still together?</p>
<p>ahahahaha yeah dtown! I remember that now. oh c'mon Chidimma, maybe Making the Band wasn't the best show out there ;), but look at what we have on tv nowadays!</p>
<p>Yeah, I'll admit it. I had a crush on Ashley Angel too. He was hot</p>
<p>Ashley Angel was not hot! I'm with Llama when it comes to that guy. To put it simply, he looked like the kind of guy who would be named Ashley Angel. (Read as: girlish. ;))</p>
<p>Athlonmj is right; what we have on tv now is truly awful. But then, it's all "reality" television, just like Making the Band! /Psh!/</p>
<p>I have a crush on Aaron Carter.</p>
<p>The problem with waiting for snail mail (going back on the thread topic!) is that you know before you even open it because you can see by the thickness of the envelope. I don't know which method I'll use. </p>
<p>When do you think they'll mail out the letters? I know pton people said the 12th and its priority if you're accepted-- how does Yale do it? </p>
<p>If it's only a few days, I think I'm going to try to wait. The operative word was try. I want it to be the classic example of wiating for that letter- that's how I've always pictured it.</p>
<p>well, last year, i remember these 2 girls from my school got deferred and their envelopes were pretty thick - with materials and stuff in them. So, just check online!!!!</p>
<p>Yeah, but some people have been saying that Yale sends thin envelopes to everyone, or thick envelopes, I forgot which. Basically, I've heard that you can't tell by the size of the envelope whether you have been accepted or not. Or none of that could be true. I don't know, I'm very confused. I think I'll just wait for people on CC to tell me the real deal.</p>
<p>haha yeah.. I will definitely check CC before I find out to see how other people are doing. I don't know what to do. My gut is telling me its a deferral. My gut is usually right. Damn gut. <em>nervous giggle then tears</em></p>
<p>Well, a thick envelope probably wouldn't be a rejection, but it could be a deferral. On the other hand, a friend of mine last year got her letter from Brown, and wouldn't open it for 3 days because it was thin...she got in.</p>
<p>The problem with the elaborate printer scheme is that if you do get in, it isn't readily apparent from the screen that pops up. You have to poke around before you realize that you have been accepted.</p>
<p>huh? i didn't get anything in the mail. should i email them about this? i mean i live in another country so the letter might take some time and what if it doesn't even come before THE day??</p>
<p>That's okay, chasgoose. I can look at the page printed out and, if it doesn't have the decision, turn on the monitor and repeat the scheme with another page. That just makes it more of an adventure. ;)</p>
<p>So does anyone know what the decision page might look like? Do you have to scroll down to read or does the letter just start at the top of the page. Also, do they start out acceptance letters with "Congratulations" or something to that extent?</p>
<p>There's a rumor than an animated Bulldog is involved.</p>
<p>and there is a rumor about a rumor that the dog dances. (which would ROCK!)</p>
<p>What happened last year for RD was that you just get to this page that looks like some weird Yale admissions site. I don't remember what it looks like but when you click on links you see the acceptance letter and somehow you get the "Bulldog, bulldog bow wow wow" song. No animated bulldogs or anything. I don't know what it looks like for EA because I got deferred. All that happens then is the deferral letter pops up. Its very sad and anticlimactic.</p>
