<p>...me BURSTING INTO TEARS before getting out of the car before school this morning?</p>
<p>I'm laughing about it now though. XD</p>
<p>Who else has already had an emotional breakdown?</p>
<p>from time to time, i have screamed randomly in my classes…</p>
<p>I had one, last night. I posted about it somewhere in the hopefuls thread I think…lol. basically I just start laughing hysterically for no reason whatsoever at random times causing the people around me to gape and back away a few feet o_O</p>
<p>who else finds themselves absolutely unable to concentrate on ANYTHING, especially other college essays? I know that if I’m rejected or deferred I’m going to be in some major trouble but I just can’t bring myself to do anything until after 5pm tomorrow…</p>
<p>almost the same here 
But come on… who isn’t like this from time to time? Especially, when it’s something that important</p>
<p>I asked my english teacher for a stress ball and she gave me a christmas ornament >_< not really something I can squeeze!</p>
<p>All of you have excellent stats and will end up at wonderful schools. Over the years, I’ve seen countless EA/ED rejects resurface after a year or two and state how deliriously happy they are with their chosen schools – “I couldn’t imagine being anywhere else” and “thank goodness I was rejected” are fairly common refrains.</p>
<p>So…although the rejection may sting now, take comfort that most students end up loving whichever college they choose.</p>
<p>In the meantime, good luck!</p>
<p>today at track practice i randomly burst into tears during the warmup. it’s kind of hard to run/breathe and cry at the same time!
in every one of my classes i sit and envision possible reactions for tomorrow. this is quite unhealthy haha</p>
<p>I have randomly started shaking on more than one occasion. I can barely sleep too. The suspense is killing me. I just keep telling myself “You know it’s unlikely, so just get over it.” It hasn’t been helping.</p>
<p>Ah, so I’m not the only crazy one This site keeps me sane half the time. We’re all going to end up at fabulously amazing schools, guys, no stress :)</p>
<p>i’m sooo thankful yale’s not my first choice
BUT, yesterday Smith sent me an envelope and i about died…it was just a brochure for my parents, but i was still excited …</p>
<p>I know!
When I first applied for SCEA, I honestly had the mentality that it was just another Ivy school, not even my top choice, etc etc.</p>
<p>But this entire last two weeks have been crazy! I guess I’ve been getting more into as time passed… I couldn’t sleep last night. I cried with my mom on Saturday night, mostly about the prospects of getting in! Ahhh</p>
<p>
me too…I really just wish the majority of the people on this thread could be accepted so we’d all be happy lol. I can’t believe there’s less than 24 hours left…</p>
<p>Bio and Calc final tomorrow, and I can’t even concentrate!!! So nervous.</p>
<p>when I first decided to apply early, I thought I’d be using yale as an “indicator” for princeton and harvard. now its my top choice. go figure</p>
<p>i just hit a really really weird state of zen. i think i out cried myself (i exploded 6/7 days last week). ive just gotten really good at visualizing that white page where it says “we are sorry…” and you know what? why do i care so much about yale anyways? it’s definitely not perfect. the kids are hyper competitive, it’s an intense place where values such as stepping back and just appreciating what you have are replaced by emphasis placed on getting ahead.</p>
<p>plus, its going to get boring, just like high school. being this upset and building up my hopes/expectations is ultimately unhealthy because nothing worth spending this much energy on exists. ive bound myself to disappointment. </p>
<p>and another point (this is me consoling myself out loud in case you haven’t figured it out): THE COUNTER NARRATIVE. if we’re smart enough to apply to yale, we’re smart enough to get into a bunch of really great schools. and after spending a couple of weeks of any of these places we’re going to think about how happy we are we went to X because we got to meet this person and take this class. so don’t worry, be happy, everything happens for a reason.</p>
<p>wow. i hope this calmed someone down other than myself.</p>
<p>Yale was my “just to see school”
no matter what, I’m glad I took a chance</p>
<p>lucky! It’s been my #1 since 6th grade…and I may just be facing rejection in the face in 22 hours D:</p>
<p>I’ve been watching movies/ rereading my favorite book to keep my mind off things. But during class (especially the boring ones) I start shaking and feel nauseous…DISTRACTION</p>
<p>yeah umm i’m starting to be really stressed and nervous
a couple of days ago, i saw president levin on tv and i was like totally crazy and thought it was a sign, and last night i saw a white dog that i haven’t seen in a while and i thought that was a sign. and now i’m just constantly checking my horoscope haha
oh and now i’m just ready for everything hehe let it come let it come let it come</p>
<p>Hahaha oh my gosh I can connect to pretty much every other post on this thread…haha. </p>
<p>Yyyyaaaaallllllleee!</p>
<p>We’re gonna be fine, guys. Fine. Just fine.</p>
<p>No matter what happens. :)</p>
