<p>i’m still waiting for Duke, Wake Forest, and Tufts. Do any of you guys know which one I will hear from first?</p>
<p>I decided to freeze myself for a couple months, then have somebody thaw me out when decision time came. The problem is that I was kept frozen for too long. I only recently found out that I, in fact, was accepted to be a member of Yale '63.</p>
<p>btw, that was inspired by South Park.</p>
<p>For MIT (didn’t apply!) I knew about pi day but what is the time (1:59) in reference to?</p>
<p>^^ The next three numbers of Pi.</p>
<p>Other than not coping at all. I cope by taking long naps, wearing sweatpants a lot, not doing homework, and reading for fun.</p>
<p>I am honestly not worrying about it. It’s out of my hands, and the last 7 semesters were for stressing out over college. Now it’s a matter of enjoying the last semester and not giving a damn about single digit acceptance rates or pointless school work.</p>
<p>sleeping, using lots of chapstick, reading poems and attempting to write them for the first time ever. thanks to EA my situation is a lot less stressful. :D</p>
<p>^poems? me too!</p>
<p>If MIT decision comes out even a hour later than announced I don’t know what I’m gonna do. I can’t stand waiting any longer.</p>
<p>Trying to pass the time by browsing CC every other minute, hoping that some school will miraculously decide to release decision early, which so far isn’t happening, read, play with the cat, try out watercolor pencils for the first time, and - signed up for a creative writing class and having to write poems for the first time! I finished my second ever sonnet yesterday. It sounded kind of pathetic - I don’t think I got the iambic pentameter right:p</p>
<p>i’m having like minature heart attacts every day when I open my inbox/mailbox. I really don’t know what to expect.</p>
<p>is anyone else’s confidence going up and down like every other minute. One second i’m convinced that i’ll get in and then the next i’m having so many doubts.</p>
<p>yeah, this wait is pretty brutal</p>
<p>It’s much much easier when you aren’t expecting a letter. You don’t like have a heart attack in anticipation.</p>
<p>I totally wasn’t expecting my Stanford email. Even when I saw I had a new email from stanford, I assumed it was like a “Oh, don’t forget to do blah, blah blah” email.</p>
<p>(Stanford, like they did last year, released REA results early)</p>
<p>^Yeah, I think I just unexpectedly got into Dartmouth. All internet signs point to likely letter. I can even sign the Class of '14 guest book. It’s easier, but anticlimactic.</p>
<p>^congrats!!! I got one too, but for me it wasn’t anticlimatic at all. instead, it was like the most exhilarating moment of life because I wasn’t expecting it at all and was in the middle of experiencing the supposedly typical, horrible “I-will-never-get-into-college” feeling after getting rejected from a program that I thought I had a chance. Besides, D is one of my top choices:) Now I’ve gone from dreading decision day to just really anxious to get the waiting process over with.</p>
<p>Watch the annoying orange series on youtube</p>
<p>“I rush to my mailbox every day after school and usually there is nothing for me -_- I check my online statuses at a couple colleges at least twice a day.”</p>
<p>twinsies : P</p>
<p>well i got CAPD from UT, i would advise you check your status weekly instead of daily, and explore your other options in the mean time.</p>
<p>now that i look back i owuldnt have checked my status every single day,</p>
<p>why are the days going by so slowly. ughh… i cant take it anymore.</p>
<p>Waiting for something else helps. I’m currently waiting expectantly for my pointe shoes. I check the messages every day to see if the store called to say “they’re in!” When I’m wearing my old pointe shoes, especially now that I’ve lost my toe pads, I think of my new ones constantly. I dream about different shades of thread, ribbon texture, the way I’ll break them in. Ohhh, pointe shoes. How well you distract me from admissions.</p>
<p>I can’t take this any longer.</p>
<p>…I just don’t think about it. I seriously have enough school work to do. And when I’m not doing that I’ve got a huge to-read list and a multitude of shows I want to watch (hulu + library = love). Still. I mean, the day the online decisions of one of my schools come out, I might start quietly freaking out, but I’ll just deal with that later. xD</p>
