<p>In NY (at a public school, not some sadistic private school); then again, 30% of students skip that last Wednesday before winter break, so it's not such a big deal. Also, we get to take our mid-terms right after we get back from winter break.</p>
<p>I have finals until Thursday and I can't study at all because I'm too excited! (or maybe it's because of the maroon nail polish fumes?)</p>
<p>I don't get my finals until after the break :(</p>
<p>I have an AP Macro and AP Calc test on the last school day this year =_="
(along with one seriously long Bio test that I'm about to fail tomorrow)</p>
<p>Oh but how do I raise holy h<strong>l when I don't believe in h</strong>l? That is quite interesting.</p>
<p>Neltharion I have the same schedule as you. And am in the same situation with the AP English essays. What do you know.</p>
<p>I live in California... actually if I go high enough there is snow, we saw some snow last night (by driving up to a mountain but you know). It hasn't snowed where I actually live. </p>
<p>Man I hate finals. Done already with Calc II and German, I think they went decently. Tomorrow's web design... a class we haven't learned ANYTHING in and I missed the review for what's going to be on the final so I have absolutely no idea.... then AP English... ARG!</p>
<p>Wow, I don't have mid-terms until about Martin Luther King Day. </p>
<p>Then again, we start school in early September and get out mid-June (though as a senior, I'm done at the end of May), and classes are year-long, not semester-based...four quarters a year, and only gym/health/etc. are for a semester. I also go to lowly public school, although mine is pretty good for the state (if ridiculously bureaucratic and papered in red tape).</p>
<p>Haha, I already stopped at UChicago's library downtown and bought about $80 worth of gear. I got my sweatshirt, my tshirt, my sweatpants, my coffee cup, and my water bottle.</p>
<p>I'm so excited.</p>
<p>Hahha i wish I had bought more stuff when I was there. I only bought a sweatshirt (one of the cheaper ones, haha didn't want to invest too much into it if I wasn't accepted)</p>
<p>Isn't "holy he11" a bit of an oxymoron?</p>
<p>:P</p>
<p>I enjoy oxymorons, it's true. :D</p>
<p>I just got the actual letter in the mail. I've been hearing a lot of my friends complain that their EA/ED schools sent out small acceptance letters and it was disappointing, etc. This one (folder and all!) is pretty impressive!</p>
<p>Ooh elen, if you got yours, mine is probably coming either tomorrow or Saturday! Can you describe what it looks like?? Is it just the letter in the folder, or do they send out a lot of promotional stuff as well?</p>
<p>There's the letter, a few papers explaining what to do next and information about visiting, the response form/envelope, and a book about housing with descriptions and pictures of dorms. And it's all in this really sweet looking Chicago folder.</p>
<p>Also the housing book says "Welcome Home" on the cover, and that was the first thing I read when I opened the folder, and it made me go "aww." :)</p>
<p>That is AWESOME...I hope mine makes it to my mailbox today. :>)</p>
<p>Elenduiel...was the letter personalized? Because apparently Chicago does that. Can't wait for that folder or my UChicago hoodie to come in! I ordered it 5 mins after getting in! Hell yeah.</p>
<p>Ahahahah, I'm glad to see I wasn't the only one. The "Welcome Home" bit definitely made me giddy :)</p>
<p>I live in Southern California and I still haven't gotten it yet. I am hoping for tomorrow.</p>
<p>I want to order a sweatshirt, but they only have that color in XL...</p>
<p>I live in central California and mine came today :D</p>
<p>And teamam, I don't think the letter was personalized.... it did come in a reallllly cool folder though! Woot!</p>
<p>Got mine today. I am very, very glad, and my mom was impressed with the paper it was printed on! :D</p>
<p>I got mine today as well, it is a very nice folder. The letter is the same as the one online. The folder is very professional haha. Also in there is the guide to housing, and a few others.</p>
