I got the email!!!!

<p>So it's December 11th, 2008 (5PM EST)...</p>

<p>PHEW!!!! Thank god it's this thursday.</p>

<p>I know!! I checked my email in school and freaked out in the middle of class. Thursday? I'm not sure I've mentally prepared myself for that. Even though I'm really happy that it's sooner and not Monday. Good luck to everyone!</p>

<p>I got it too. D: OH MY GODDDDDD</p>

<p>f**********************************</p>

<p>crap. I'm at school and can't check my mail.</p>

<p>Oh my godddddd that's so close! 3 days away!</p>

<p>I JUST SCREAMED. Seriously, Thursday's really close. I'm so nervous.</p>

<p>haha
at least its for real this time</p>

<p>This wait is pretty unbearable. I just want to know already, so I can move on with my life.</p>

<p>I thought I would be relieved when I opened the notification email.</p>

<p>Instead, nervousness swept over me. I cannot believe I find out in THREE FREAKING DAYS!</p>

<p>AHHH!</p>

<p>AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>

<p>must....stop....thinking....about...columbia................................</p>

<p>..........</p>

<p>..............</p>

<p>....................................</p>

<p>I CANT. F***.</p>

<p>when i got the email (i was at school) i called my mom, and she made me cry.
she said, "you know it's not the end of the world if you don't get in, right honey? you'll get in where you belong, and it's meant to be if you don't get good news on thursday"
and i just sat there, tearing up, hoping she would shut up.
who wants to hear that? as real as that scenario may be, i didn't want to hear that.</p>

<p>i got so excited when i got the email</p>

<p>thursday can't come soon enough</p>

<p>yea my mom said the same!
but i havent really reacted emotionally...i dont think ive realized the gravity of the situation yet.
like if i get deferred, i dont think id get depressed cuz theres still some hope for regular decision and there are other schools id be happy at (like brown and upenn)
but those are quite competitive as well so if i were to get deferred, id onl get completely depresesd if i didnt get into any schools that i would be happy at.
ha that was long and confusing.
but im just trying to spare myself complete and total depression on thursday.
ah this is so stressful!</p>

<p>my friend applied and they are freaking out!
hey ^ if that's your birthday above that's mine too except in 1990 :)</p>

<p>Yeah, I told my mom, and she was like "You'll get in..." in this doubtful voice. I don't blame her. I'm doubtful too.</p>

<p>My mum keeps telling me how I'll definitely get in so my hopes are really high right now and I'm just sooo nervous..</p>

<p>My mom tells me 'don't get your hopes up'. I'm like, 'thanks mom....'. But at the same time it's probably a good thing.</p>

<p>Oh brother.</p>

<p>Hah, the first thing my mom said this morning when I woke up was, "Honey, you're not going to get in."</p>

<p>Thanks mom. But I appreciate how she's getting me ready for disappointment. Haha</p>
