<p>OMG!!! I'm so ecstatic (((and surprised))). I feel soooooooooooo darn honored and just, ugh. I'm completely overwhelmed. </p>

<p>I'm proof that you don't have to have straight As and a 1600 to get into Harvard. But I was dedicated to my passions, and made sure that my dedication came through in my essays, recs, supplementary resume---everything. I'm so happy. If you would've asked me, in tenth grade, what college I was thinking of going to, I would've said: "Not Harvard. I'll never get in." The fact that going to Harvard is a tangible possibility for me now is, well, I can't put it into words. I'm soooooo happy.</p>

<p>CONGRATS CLASS OF '09!!!! HUGS AND ICE CREAM FOR EVERYONE!!!!</p>

10

<p>Modestmouse-didn't we say something way back about hanging out at prefrosh weekend? Now we get to!</p>

11

<p>Mahnomahn, you're right!</p>

12

<p>Let's get together and smoke some beers.</p>

13

<p>How exactly do you smoke beer?</p>

14

<p>maybe (s)he was drunk while (s)he wrote that?</p>

15

<p>I'm only joking. I neither drink nor smoke but it's an ass-kicking saying. I suggest using it liberally.</p>

<p>But anyhow, LETS PAH-TAY LIKE IT'S 2009.</p>

16

<p>. . . is anyone still as surprised as I?</p>

17

<p>RDer here with a question: since Harvard is nonbinding EA, are any of the accepted applicants still unsure if they will be attending Harvard?</p>

18

<p>I get more surprised as the day goes on.</p>

<p>Wonka-I'd say I'm 90% sure I'm going to Harvard. If I get into Stanford, I'm going to pre-frosh weekend, and that could possibly lure me away. The only other possibilities are if I get one of the 10 full scholarships to Duke, or if somehow I have a huge change of heart and NEED to play football, so I go to Amherst.</p>

19

<p>Hey! Congratulations everybody!</p>

<p>Jubilation! They somehow wanted me! I fall on the floor and I'm laughing!</p>

<p>It's just so surreal. I called my grandparents; their pride and elation was the best part of it. It's such an honor to be accepted. I called my family and closest friends and they're screaming in glee too. I feel so blessed right now!</p>
