I’m in the exact same boat. :(</p>
<p>@kimathi: arg.</p>
<p>Lildot… I know. I know!</p>
<p>You’d think an MIT acceptance would make the wait any easier… IT DOESN’T!!</p>
<p>At least we will probably know in less than a week. :(</p>
<p>i really hope we find out soon!</p>
<p>Anyone up for a rousing game of “Talk about something vaguely related”?</p>
<p>I’ll start: “Winston Churchill was more convincing than Justin Bieber when it comes to urging people to persevere.”</p>
<p>No contest really- Cometh the hour, cometh the man</p>
<p>Stanford-related though… Football team’s chances in 2011?</p>
<p>I hope that P(Stanford wins)>P(getting in to Stanford)</p>
<p>That’s kind of a depressing statement of probability.
So a massive earthquake is likely to hit the bay area in the next couple years. Is living on a fault a good idea?</p>
<p>I’ve heard this said before, and will repeat it: there is no single location in the world that is immune to a natural disaster, especially in the States. On the East Coast you have hurricanes, blizzards, etc. Midwest you have tornadoes. West Coast you have earthquakes. That’s only the US too.</p>
<p>On a side note, the city that I live in in California actually sits about a block away from the San Andreas fault, so I’m already in prime danger. 
</p>
<p>Anyway, I have friends telling me not to count down, but it’s something that I can’t seem to force myself to stop doing. You guys (and girls lol) have a full week ahead? My week is pretty empty right now, so it’ll be pretty hard to keep my mind off of the situation.</p>
<p>When you have the future number 1 draft pick, on your team you have a very good shot of going all the way. Andrew Luck>Peyton Manning!!!</p>
<p>Hurricane rarely get as far north as the Carolinas, and blizzards rarely far into Virginia.</p>
<p>However my point is that in relation to the Japanese and other Earthquakes, the Pacific plate is disturbed, so the chances of a bad earthquake is worse.</p>
<p>How can you countdown, though, when you don’t know what to?</p>
<p>It is almost certain that the decisions will be posted this Friday! I remember back in REA, a lot of people found us very premature in making a similar claim, but alas it came to be. :)</p>
<p>Any idea as to what time will decisions will be released on Friday? (I’d have to do the time adjustments that’s why)</p>
<p>So, decisions are coming by e-mail?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>They’re usually posted at 3 PM Pacific Standard Time.</p>
<p>possibly this Friday? so anxious!</p>
<p>@Oversimplistic: No matter what, “disasters” or at least some form of natural “movement” is bound to happen, anywhere and at any time.</p>
<p>Also as far as counting down goes, I have my sights set to Friday. The Mac widget I made is set for Friday at 12:00AM, not 3PM (though it’s a good idea!) lol. So that’s what I’m referencing. I’m just that type of person; I like to know what’s going on and when.</p>
<p>PS: Has anyone dreamt of Stanford yet? Last night I found myself dreaming of (pretty sure it was) Admit Weekend… :(</p>
<p>Haha @Sleet: I dreamt of Stanford earlier in the year already…haha, however, for the past few days, Ive seen more Stanford references than usual…saw 5 cars with Stanford bumper/window stickers in less than 10 min…lol coincidence?</p>
<p>^Yes… Stanford bumper stickers aren’t exactly rare in California (I’m assuming that’s where you’re from). But Good Luck all the same :)</p>
