final countdown- we're down to hours!!!

<p>only 24 hours and 20 minutes or so till we find out. ooooooooooooomg.
not sleeping tonight</p>

<p>well...nearly EXACTLY one day remains.</p>

<p>i am officially expecting rejection. its so disappointing and grim- i feel like I have already recieved the letter. actually, my prediction has always been deferred (last year FU deferred like 30%!)</p>

<p>Optimism, guys, optimism! If I weren't optimistic, I would have already withdrawn my application, as - compared to you - I have no chance! :)</p>

<p>Optimism is said to be 70% of your success! According to this logic, you have around only 5% chance of being rejected!</p>

<p>I am going to sleep with the Blue Album under my pillow tonight :)</p>

<p>ahh you applied to seas? cool cool.</p>

<p>i'm absolutely terrified. especially since everyone and their mother wants to know if i got in. UGH PRESSURE. everyone keeps telling me CALL ME TOMORROW AS SOON AS YOU FIND OUT. basically all my friends.. my family wants to be there.... i have to call my sister in cali, all my aunts, my brother, my college counselor who will be at a police concert (jealous..!!), friends from camp who want to know via facebook, etc. i'm expecting deferral.</p>

<p>23 hours and 30 minutes left... I'm not sure whether I'm excited or scared.</p>

<p>UGH PRESSURE. everyone keeps telling me CALL ME TOMORROW AS SOON AS YOU FIND OUT.</p>

<p>^^^ hahahaha same here, and to make it worse my best friend is applying to dartmouth, so we're in the same boat. they hear on wednesday at 3:30 ^^^ ok, i will try to stay optimistic </p>

<p>I am going to sleep with the Blue Album under my pillow tonight
^^^ hahahahahahahahah hilarious!!^^^^ I am going to do the same, except i'm not sure if i'll do it with the big CU one or the gray FU one!!!
AAAAH I'M OFFICIALLY GOING NUTS.</p>

<p>Ok, let me just say that the Blue Album comment was the funniest comment on CC right now. It's such a Columbia applicant joke/sign of neurosis. I'm going completely insane!!!! I'm still making my mind up about the whole optimistic/pessimistic thing. AAA!!! </p>

<p>PS Has anyone tried calling DHL? Did it work?</p>

<p>omg osheezie one of my best friends ALSO applied to dartmouth early! haha and my other two best friends applied to yale early, they find out friday evening. </p>

<p>and who knows maybe i'll sleep with mine too! i just found all the stuff they've sent me while i was trying to look for papers for my final also!!</p>

<p>haha and my dad is already bringing home the champagne, regardless of what happens tomorrow. he's getting all this wine from the year i was born..1989. (drinking age here is 18 so yeah wooo! haha) i'm going to be hungover for my calc final greeeat. not like i'll be able to study tomorrow ANYWAY.</p>

<p>Whatever happens, I'm absorbing myself into a book tonight. Semi-sedated I guess :)</p>

<p>I have to be at school when I hear the news and then go to mock trial. If I get rejected/deferred I'm gonna have to sit through a mock trial meeting that will be HORRIBLE.</p>

<p>I'm definitely going to pray to Saint Anthony, patron saint of lost causes.</p>

<p>good luck columbia ED-ers :)</p>

<p>thanks!
let's all go take shots. ughhghgghgh</p>

<p>haha, it's 21 in the USA, my dear
that might take some getting used to
or, you know, not. ;) ;)</p>

<p>hahaha i know lol everyone come down to pr!!! no one checks id anyway (here that is...)</p>

<p>oh and mariachristina, props for making another thread for the results! great idea, that thread was too busy</p>

<p>Yes, great idea!
I just want to get the attention of a mod so that it can be stickied at the top of the forum...
Especially if nobody's posting in it until tomorrow, it might drop on the list of recently-posted-in threads</p>

<p>I am so excited / nervous for all of us...you guys have no idea.
I'm pretty sure I'm going to be rejected because I made a stupid mistake in my app, but I REALLY hope all of you get in.
Having CC to help ease my troubles has been amazing...I'm so glad I found out about this site early in the game...
Almost the moment I stepped on the Columbia campus I decided I wanted to apply ED...probably the same as many of you guys :)
I had pt. 2 of a 2 day calc test today and I pretty much failed because I couldn't stop thinking about tomorrow...but it's OK, I usually somewhere around a 70 on one section of the test and then 100 on the other section...its kind of weird. ANYWAYS. and I have pt. 1 of a 3 day history test tomorrow (yeah my school digs long tests) and I haven't started studying yet because I've been in my columbia bubble all afternoon/night. i haven't answered my phone...I haven't done <em>much</em> HW...I'm mentally freaking out.</p>

<p>**GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!!!! <3 <3 **<a href="especially%20to%20me.%20%20hehe">/u</a>
and i really do hope that we all get in.
k bye.</p>

<p>aniohevetotach i know how you feel. i have tests every day of the week, along with huge projects, and all i can do is fixate on columbia and alternate between mad rushes of hope and fear. it sucks. </p>

<p>hopefully i, and everyone else will get in and WE WON'T HAVE TO DO ANY MORE COLLEGE APPS!!!!!!!</p>
