<p>^LOL. Calm down people, you need to CALM THE FUDGE DOWN!!!</p>
<p>As we say in California, y’all need to take a chill pill. And contrary to popular belief, that is not an incitement to take an illegal drug.</p>
<p>^Code H</p>
<p>we all love our parents.
how dare you say that?!!!</p>
<p>if you love your mom, just tell her, i am off to stanford</p>
<p>I get it, he/she isn’t TRYING to be a jerk, even though it might have come out that way. And yes, you should feel bad for taking someone else’s acceptance. There would have been an easy solution to that–simply withdraw your apps; that’s what i did.</p>
<p>OMG. SOOO much hate on this board. seriosuly, get over it. he got in, you didn’t/might not. whatever, move on.</p>
<p>Code H. You’ve jinxed it. No no go to Haavaad!</p>
<p>How pretentious is this thread?
Seriously dude, we don’t want you either. Trust.</p>
<p>I know people who have turned down Harvard for other schools. They are quiet about it because it is like religion or politics it is best not to discuss. People will think they are bragging that they got into Harvard in the first place and then they’ll have to justify why they didn’t want to go. There are other things to talk about.</p>
<p>To the OP, you can feel any way you want but you shouldn’t necessarily post it. You should also learn to stand up to your parents, Asian or otherwise.</p>
<p>people… calm down!!!</p>
<p>be nice :D</p>
<p>Why should we be calm? No one wants to read about how hard the OP’s life is going to be because if they get into Harvard their parents will make them go and then they won’t be able to go to their dream school Stanford which they have already been accepted to and blah, blah, blah. The OP should have been able to figure that out without anyone telling them.</p>
<p>CODE H, DO NOT LISTEN TO ANY OF THESE OBLIVIOUSLY ARROGANT POSTS. YOUR POST LIGHTENS OUR OWN ANXIETY. So, thanks!</p>
<p>Y’all are ridiculous. While clearly Harvard is a safety for no one, I’m sure you all applied to schools as safeties that are someone else’s “Harvard.”</p>
<p>haha well put coolstorybro</p>
<p>This is entirely different from “turning down Harvard,” which i’m sure quite a few people do every year for perfectly valid reasons. This is like, “OMG GUYZ PLEASE i got into stanford, harvard please don’t accept me pleaaaaase because i’ll have to come and i’ll hate it.”</p>
<p>Err… You irk me to no end. Stanford will be so lucky to have you.</p>
<p>So, did you get in?</p>
<p>Well, I suppose you got what you asked for, more or less.</p>
<p>PS. It’s a tad rich to critique Haldana in another thread for being insensitive in light of existence the this thread.</p>
<p>:eyeroll:</p>
