Not at all. They mentioned the "superficial" thread that actually turned out to be a chance thread.. hahaha

hahah i got tricked more than once opening that thread. i kept forgetting it was a chance thread :[</p>
<p>They quoted me!!!!!</p>
<p>Oh, and alfredeneuman is a girl. Well, the character from Mad Magazine isn't a girl, but the person behind the screen name is!</p>
<p>haha seriously. if i get in, i'm driving up to brown december 12 and buying a bunch of apparel, stickers for cars, and a lot more hahah</p>
<p>I'm willing to do that too!! Except I'd have to fly. But I'll be SO overwhelmingly happy, I'd visit and hug every building on campus.</p>
<p>Haha, I'm with you guys on that one. I'll probably go to campus the night I find out (I live like 20 minutes away soo...) and just run around and buy a bunch of random "Brown" stuff. </p>
<p>This is all of course, if I get in. Ha.</p>
<p>What will you guys do if you get rejecte/deferred? I don't want to sound pessimistic or anything, but I'm just curious.</p>
<p>I know I wish I had Brown stuff so if I did get in I could wear it the next day and brag about it lol, but I'm too afraid to buy anything because I might jinx it or something. </p>
<p>Ahhh I have my interview tonight :/ </p>
<p>Anyone else still missing components?</p>
<p>Hmm if I get rejected I will probably weep for hours then add a bunch more safety schools since from what I've seen Brown only flat out rejects a small number of people. Deferred is what I'm excepting so I wont be too upset although I will be a little down that week haha. But I plan to put pictures of the mascots of each school I'm applying to on my wall if I get deferred then if I get rejected in April I can take a giant red marker and X it out and it will be satisfying hahahaha.</p>
<p>Thats an awesome idea. I think I'll do that too (the mascot pictures).</p>
<p>I think I'll hang a picture of a bear as a target in the shooting range if I don't get in... Because by then I will almost be 18 and I want to try going to the range anyway :P</p>
<p>Lets hope it doesnt come to that</p>
<p>I got accepted!</p>
<p>?????????????????????</p>
<p>oprah, i.....</p>
<ol>
<li>think you're kidding?</li>
<li>hope you're kidding.</li>
<li>am now becoming a little paranoid. </li>
<li>am now thinking that either
a) you already got in because you already go to brown.
b) you are so brilliant and marvelous they HAD to accept you right away...</li>
</ol>
<p>if you're kidding, you shouldn't say stuff like that on a board of stressed-out seniors anxiously waiting for dec. 11.</p>
<p>if i'm taking this waaaayy too seriously (which is probable) i'm sorry. i find myself very prone to nervous breakdowns these days. which is unfortunate.</p>
<p>edit: also, mandolive, smeagz, and sak09- you can buy brown stuff online, too! i think that might be easier than driving/flying there. bookstore.brown.edu, i'm pretty sure.</p>
<p>and alfredeneuman, i'm sorry i thought you were a guy haha.</p>
<p>oprah!'s a poop</p>
<p>teehee
sorry i thought this thread could use some humor to break the tension!!!!!!!!</p>
<p>oprah? what the hell? you got accepted?</p>
<p>also, i would totally go and buy everything as well! i live in texas,(ugh) but i would fly up there as soon as i got the news. i went to a summer program there this summer and went back last weekend, and when i was touring the bookstore i kept staring at everything, thinking about how much i want to be able to wear that stuff with pride. :(</p>
<p>i need brown to accept me.
i NEED them to.</p>
<p>it's pretty funny how we all jumped at that, though... i'm not stressed about this at allllllll</p>
<p>i can't help but be stressed.
we only have a few weeks!</p>
<p>i don't mean to seem so nervous. :(</p>
<p>i just am...</p>
<p>i was looking at those stats, and mine are definitely not that impressive.</p>
<p>what!! you're on edge!!!!!</p>
<p>Ugh, I know. It's so terrifying at this point. I've wanted to go to Brown since I was tiny. And now... there's actually nothing I can do about it anymore. And if I don't get in, it's going to be suuuuuch a psyche blow. I'd get over it but... blah it would suck. Haha</p>
<p>i know! and this whole waiting thing/helplessness really doesn't help calm my nerves.</p>
<p>sigh.
and i'm from a po dunk town in texas, too.</p>
