<p>I've decided to go to the Cheesecake Factory with my friends who applied early elsewhere (I'm the only one, as far as I know, who applied early to Yale from my school). I'll either celebrate with deliciously fattening cheesecake or drown my sorrows in deliciously fattening cheesecake.</p>
<p>When I see the word drown, I keep thinking it says dtown. "Why would you want to me your sorrows? I'm not even a verb!" Also, I'm losing my mind.</p>
<p>If I get in, I'll be having a little party on the spot (next to the printer downstairs, of course). If I'm rejected, I'll just mope for a day (or seven). If I'm deferred, I'll be unsurprised. All of these things will, of course, be followed by posting my decision on here.</p>
<p>I'm celebrating by going shopping and spending outrageous amounts of money. I'm also mourning by going shopping and spending outrageous amounts of money. Either way, I win :)</p>
<p>im eating "celebration" cookies and cakes -weve started the christmas cookie season in my house.... its a VERY good seaon- and running around my school shouting and singing JOY TO THE WORLD or im eating "depression" cookies and crying alone in my room to the radio. </p>
<p>i will probably be working because i believe i have an english essay due on the 17th, well, actually procrastinating and going on cc to see how other people did and avoid the essay (just like i'm avoiding my english hw right now!)</p>
<p>if i get in, i will probably plan beforehand to not tell the family for a little bit and just be happy by myself, but then i won't be able to stop smiling and will burst out and say it and my parents will proceed to make me call all my relatives :P
If i get deferred/rejected, i'll be sad and depressed, but more by the amount of applications i'll have to do than by anything else...and lots of food will be eaten i'm sure</p>
<p>If I get in I'm going to absolutely go nuts and probably go out for a hard run. Then I'd go pay my friend $20 bucks because I bet with him that I won't get in.</p>
<p>If I get rejected I'll probably go into a state of depression for a week or so and then get over it. I'd also have to tell about 500 people who ask me about my decision that I got rejected... over and over. That will probably be the worst part. I think I"m just going to tell everyone, if I'm not running up to you screaming, I didn't get in so don't ask. On the plus side I'd go and collect $20 bucks from my friend.</p>
<p>If I get deferred I'd probably be pretty upset, but still hopeful. I'd start getting ready to send some extra stuff and ask my guidance counselor what to do.</p>
<p>I live pretty close to new haven, so if i get in, my mom's going to drive me up that night. I want to tell the girl i pre-froshed with, and the summer school teacher i had one year who works there during the school year, in person. Also, i'll go buy Yale stuff at the bookstore :-D. We'll probably eat at this yummy spanish restaurant there.</p>
<p>Either way, i'll be crying.</p>
<p>If i dont get in, i'll curl up in bed and not move for a week. :(</p>
<p>If I get in I will scream so loudly that the whole neighborhood will have to call to shut me up, and I'll probably not stop singing for over a week... which is bad, because I'm flying to Quebec the night of the 16th, and everyone hates anyone who sings on planes...</p>
<p>If I don't get in, I'll just be more stressed because I'll have SO many more applications to finish. And I'll have to explain it to a lot of people. But it won't be a big surprise. Little time for mourning - too much stress. Oh, and I'll be in Quebec. So that will be nice.</p>
<p>"(I realized yesterday that my fellow CCers will probably end up knowing my decision before my friends from school...)" ~bebere87</p>
<p>WHAT! beth! what!!! WHAT!
i remember the first person i called after i got my sat score was YOU
and it will be the same after columbia decisions on friday
<3</p>
<p>I was not a NMS, and this crushed me. I still have my PSAT study book from last year, and I said I would burn it if and only if I got into a really good private school. It will be burned no more than a couple of hours after I get my Yale acceptance, God willing. If I am not accepted or deferred, then it will not be burned and I will cry for hours.</p>
