<p>how will you guys react when you get accepted to your dream school (hopefully no rejections)? i will cry, yes, i will cry. it'll be like a moment in the pursuit of happiness, when will smith goes out on the streets and start yelling of joy</p>
<p>I'd flip a s***. I want to see three big fat fedexed packets sitting on my dining room table so badly... If I did have the fortune of seeing those, I would probably be crying as well. If not that, I would literally be jumping up and down and doubtlessly be locked in a state of intense euphoria for at least a few days. It would be the successful closure of a process that has had a big hold on my mind for a really long time. I guess you could say that I would feel pretty liberated.</p>
<p>Call me a nerd, but I would also put my Andover acceptance letter in a small frame and hang it by my bed. When I ended up leaving for Andover, I would let my parents move it to a more central location ;-) Bottom line, I would be unbelievably ecstatic</p>
<p>I would probably die. In a good way. I think I'd be killing myself over whether or not my parents saw the size of the envelope before me and etc..., because I've always wanted to know first, lol. I want to know my fate, and be the one to break it to everybody else! I don't know WHAT I'd do if I got denied to all of my schools, because this has been, in some ways, a complete bonding experience, but also something incredibly new! I don't think they comprehend sometimes how COMPETITIVE these schools are to get into... they certainly had no idea beforehand!</p>
<p>Anyway, if I got accepted?? ... well, first I'd probably scream and sob. Literally. Then, I'd freak out (as is customary Elvee ritual... "is this what I really want?" followed by a resounding "YES IT IS!!") tell my parents, have a cry/laugh fest, and then call my friends.</p>
<p>After that, DORM PLANNING, meeting fellow future classmates, the good nervous feeling...
Omg. fjhdkffg. That's all there is to say, lol!!</p>
<p>I'm getting them on March 10, 2010.. Haha, about 400 days left. You can imagine how anxious I am already :)</p>
<p>Because I'm such a pathetic pessimist, I'm only thinking about what'll happen if I don't get in ..
1) cry
2) potentially set the house fire (while i burn the rejection letters. fire spreads quickly, y'know?)
3) get the police called in because i'm screaming so loud
4) get sent to a psychiatric hospital for the mentally .. impaired
5) get screamed at by parents for wasting their money
6) reading all the 'OMFGAIRG I GOT IN HADES AND LIKE, 28347 OTHER SCHOOLS' threads on CC, feeling depressed ..</p>
<p>Haha, yes, Dorm Planning. I want a roommate really badly, but what if my roommate & I don't get along very well/ have no interests in common? That'll be a looonng year..
If I got in, though, I'm sure I'd shatter several of my neighbour's eardrums. Not like that's ever happening, but you know.. :)</p>
<p>Wow divealive I think your starting a little to early... you've got forever to go and you already have yourself all wrapped up in boarding school lol. Atleast you'll be super prepared when the time rolls around tho.</p>
<p>Haha, mpicz: yeah, i stress out / over-prepare / get over-excited waay too easily. but then again, my school doesn't give any homework over winter break (WHICH TOTALLY SUCKS) so i might as well gain some knowledge of something, right? i barely knew ANYTHING on boarding schools before the winter break :)</p>
<p>& getting ready early never hurt anybody, right? haha, well, other than elevated stress levels and maybe blood pressure, but.. ;P</p>
