<p>Lol you’re two months younger than I am.</p>
<p>Not counting my year of lurk, of course.</p>
<p>How do you know when I was born? @mrnephew</p>
<p>Oh. You’re talking about CC age?</p>
<p>Yeah… That would be weird.</p>
<p>Yeah lol.</p>
<p>I was still a lurker for a long time after I joined… I started really posting around the beginning of this year.</p>
<p>Those good times.</p>
<p>This thread is a prime example of what happens when one has nothing to do during winter break.</p>
<p>Gossip Girl and CC has become my life… But then I just finished GG. So now I’m undergoing withdrawal.</p>
<p>Hahaha isn’t it wonderful?</p>
<p>March 10th was awful for me. I stressed myself out by trying to tell myself “don’t worry, you’ll get in!” then being mad at myself for setting myself up for inevitable rejection. My mom let me stay home that morning, until I got news on Middlesex (the <em>incredibly stupid choice of ccnaf149 was to ONLY apply to Middlesex</em>) with the intent I would go to school after I got the news. Well… lets just say I didn’t take the rejection very well haha… @mrnephew knew I was rejected before my parents, I put on a “oh well… congrats to everyone who got in!” face on CC, but lost it in front of my parents. My life was o-v-e-r for a few hours. Then I sucked it up and got over it.</p>
<p>ADVICE TO EVERYONE FOR MARCH 10th - No matter how qualified for the school you might be, do not expect to get in. I thought I had Middlesex in the bag, but clearly I didn’t. My SSAT ruined any chances. By not setting yourself up with high expectations, rejections wont hurt as bad and acceptances will feel so much better. </p>
<p>But @ccnaf14 , it all worked out in the end, didn’t it? </p>

<p>March 10 was scary.</p>
<p>Oh yeah? Wait until college decisions. </p>
<p>I don’t even want to think about college decisions. </p>
<p>IT ALL WORKS OUT IN THE END!!! @mrnephew haha</p>
<p>if it makes anyone feel better every single letter that I opened was a rejection and a waitlist and then the last letter i was about to give up becuase there was no chance it was something good and turns out i got accepted with aid and now that i think I love there and i wouldnt have wanted to change it any way 
and i agree it’ll be ok until college and we can all freak out together again 
</p>
<p>I was having pretty bad thoughts at school the day of M10th because I had already been notified a few days before that I didn’t get into the school that I really wanted to go to, plus I thought I’d have the best chances of getting into that particular school. Kind of worried me, waiting.
I suppose it was all fine in the end.</p>
<p>Biting my nails about march 10 and i havent even finished apps yet! </p>
