<p>I can't even describe what I'm feeling right now. Surreal. Numb.
On one hand, I'm relieved that I wasn't rejected outright. But somehow, this is worse. My heart sunk when I read the decision.
I know its not the end of the world, but it kind of seems like it. I'm not crying, but I feel like I should be.</p>

<p>soooo scary to see the stats being posted so fast....-pton EDer</p>

<p>sorry, but is it an e-mail or a status page....?</p>

<p>sorry, but did everyone get it at 3 or was there some trickle down time</p>

<p>I'm sorry you got deferred. I'm from the Cornell board and I just wanted to say that...everything will be ok. :)
k?</p>
