Official countdown to March 31st

<p>^^^^^^
I absolutely hate that.</p>

<p>"Hey! Have you heard about Stanford yet?"</p>

<p>Me In My Head: "Ya, I just decided not to tell anyone. Are you ****ing kidding me? Trust me. When I know, you all will."</p>

<p>Me Out Loud: "Not until April." (The same people ask weekly at least. They all get the same response each time and still don't seem to get it. But hey at least they care...or they just can't wait for me to fail lol)</p>

<p>I get the same people asking all the time too. I've been working at the same place for about 5 years now with the same people the whole time (they are all adults except for me) and EVERY WEEKEND at work they ALLLL ask me "Have you gotten in anywhere yet?"</p>

<p>And I know it comes from a place of them really caring because we are all so close and they are just excited for me, but I swear I'm about to pop one of them in the face!</p>

<p>Agreed.</p>

<p>It is a sentiment we all share.</p>

<p>My parents won't quit asking. I think they think I've gotten rejected everywhere. =/ But really, I haven't been rejected or accepted. xD</p>

<p>I must have heard the "do you know where you're going yet?" question 3294329043284 times...</p>

<p>33 days, until the moment of truth</p>

<p>I'd maybe prefer not... The ability to name where I will be attending in April freaks me out because that means that we're actually graduating--and going to college!? And, I won't be able to use the "I have no idea where I'm going answer" anymore. That saddens me.</p>

<p>I know what you mean, but to me, it's scarier not knowing what lies ahead. At least if I know where I'm going I have a more definite picture of the future rather than, "Holy Jesus on a cracker! I have no idea what's coming next?! What if I end up being the kid that gets rejected from everywhere and ends up failing at life?! Epic fail!"</p>

<p>Nickel Xenon, I completely agree. The weird thing is because of RD, I might end up in three-four completely diametrically different places so it's really hard to imagine ..anything. Right now, as mentioned, my pet peeve is the "Where are you going? What's your #1? When you do find out?" combo question. But, then, I'll be forced to answer people in about a month...because I'll have no excuse on why I can't. Then, the reactions might be my new pet peeve... We'll see.</p>

<p>omfg i cant get march 27 out of my head. thats when i find out what UC's i get into. also known as the day i commit suicide or the day i become the happiest person in the world. omg the anticipation. at least 500 posts, mabye around 1000</p>

<p>Everyone knows Stanford is my top choice. I knew that's where I wanted to go, but even when I applied I knew my SAT scores were on the low side and I mean, come on 10% admission rate. I just don't want people to be like, "Oh? Is that where you're going? I thought you'd get into Stanford." Because everyone kept telling me I'm smart and such and no matter how much I tried to explain that it didn't matter and it was a hard school to get into, people seemed to think I'd do it easily. I think everyone else will act more disappointed than me. You know, after my hour or so long cry.</p>

<p>time is actually passing by pretty quickly. </p>

<p>I believe my latest decision would come on april first, from Stanford X_X</p>

<p>Though I doubt they would want me after deferring me.</p>

<p>don't trust the collegeboard.com dates, they're off.</p>

<p>Dang, this is so surreal. It's like waiting to be told where you'll be spending the next four years of your life.</p>

<p>I hate the wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>

<p>basically 1 month left......</p>

<p>I also hate it when my own parents are like....so did you get any acceptances besides your state school? And it's like for the 3545766th time, It's like im NOT going to tell you...chill out, you'll know when i do...</p>

<p>I echo the sentiments of everyone who has been repeatedly asked where they are going to school when they aren't even going to find out until April 1st.</p>

<p>What's worse is that so many students at the school I attend applied early...</p>

<p>Nickel, the same exact situation with me! Though, it's a different top college.</p>

<p>Yep, I don't get why people think that acceptances letters come this soon--or via owl mail or something. I mean, just asking me twice in one week won't change it.</p>

<p>I also have the same problem. When I was on vacation, people in the hot tub were asking me if I knew where I was going. Man, that was really strange.</p>

<p>26 days............ woo hoo, I'm getting excited now!</p>

<p>Exciting? Yes. Nerve-wracking? Also yes. I can't wait until this month is OVER!</p>
