A nice big bottle of Disaronno. In any event, it’s going to be a nice treat.
probably cry all day. cry through school. cry through practice. cry as I open every portal and email. tears of happiness for the slim chance of waitlist/accept. regular tears for anything else. go to bed unable to cry. wake up in the morning and realize Stanford’s decisions come out on April fools day.
It’d be my luck all the ivy’s would admit me, then email me on 4/1 saying “april fools!”
drink
go to school. cry a lot at school and freak out in all my classes. check my email nervously all day because i’d be so anxious for the evening. play some ping pong (cry on my ping pong table). make myself a bowl of popcorn. watch billy madison. cry. and then curl up in a ball when my mom gets home and hold her hand and cry while i get all 3 rejections.
Probably dying in a dark, deep hole. Either that or going to class.
Crying into Ben & Jerry’s.
While I agree with the fact it’s all a crapshoot – my favorite supposition of college admissions is they tape our applications to the wall, spin around drunk throwing darts, whoever they hit gets in; some of the college decisions at my school only convince me of this… that’s a little bit disgusting.
I am going to be on vacation for Ivy Day. On a cruise. facepalm
So, most probably, I will be silently cursing the wildly overpriced yet terrible wi-fi on the boat and praying that it doesn’t crash on me. And then after I get my 4 rejections, I will have to pull it together so that I can go to dinner with my relatives.
So basically, it’s gonna suck. But it’s gonna suck no matter where it is, so I’d rather spend it on vacation :P.
my last post was supposed to have replied to @uclabound1 … but clearly didn’t. As for me, since I’m on spring break, I’m working the entire week… until 5pm… so I’m gonna buy a couple pints of baskin robbins mint chip and two bags of salt and vinegar chips, maybe a chocolate bar or four this weekend. Then spend all of Ivy day trying to focus on what I’m supposed to be doing, and then try to get off early so I can check at five instead of freaking out all the way home. Being in an accident is not going to help me get my decision faster.
When I get home and receive my five back-to-back rejection letters, I’m going to reach into my junk food stash and gain the freshman fifty trying to drown my sorrows. Then I’ll say screw it and go to UVA.
I’m not picky, I just want one. Doesn’t matter which one, I just want one. Is that too much to ask?
Wait until midnight and see everything until April 1.
Maybe then throw a raging party?
Penn decisions come out in the middle of 5th hour; so I’m trying to convince my parents to let me skip 5th hour so I don’t have a mental breakdown in the middle of APES. It’s not like we do anything important in there…
I’ll check the portals with my friends Jim Beam, Jack Daniels, and Captain Morgan. They’re very supportive.
Well, I considered skipping school for the entire day to savor my last hours as a non-Ivy League student, but I’m too much of a good person to play hooky like that.
My aunt and my mother are going to sit with me in the dining room and open all 8 of my Ivy League admissions decisions and we’re going to laugh and cry or do some combination of both.
I think I should just miss school and wait around for my decisions to arrive.
A shot for each rejection
Student from Asia here…
I’m gonna wake up at 6AM (thats the time here for the decisions) although I think I’ll wake up way earlier, open all of my portals, run to the nearest corner, grab a tub of ice cream and sob uncontrollably in the corner.
I have a lab class until ~3:30, so I’ll get home 4:00 and try to eat/nap/tv my way to 5 PM. Tbh, I’ll probably binge watch The Mindy Project or Parks and Rec.
I’m going to refrain from checking until April 1st, so I can check my decisions all at once!
@OrchidBloom The Ivies are the last group of schools that I have to hear back from. So I’m doing mine March 31 @ 5 PM sharp. Besides, I don’t think I could take waiting an extra day. Ouch.
I will be at work 
I work in a nursing home dining room where we open the doors for service right at 5! should I check right at 5 and risk being upset all of service, or do I wait till service is over and try to bear the curiosity?
I’ll be waiting anxiously to hear if my close friend was accepted to any of the three Ivies he applied to. After work I’ll check my 1 token Ivy rejection just to say I took a shot. Then I’ll probably have some sort of crisis over the fact that I’ve heard back from every school and have to make a final decision about the schools I was accepted to.
