One Day More

Prep School Admissions
1

<p>Just messing around a little before dinner...</p>

<p>Apologies to Herbert Kretzmer</p>

<p>VALJEAN: One day more,
Another day, another destiny,
An ending to this tale of misery;
These admissions folks who know my fate
Must really like to make me wait,
One day more...
MARIUS: I cannot live until I know,
How can I live if not at Deerfield?
VALJEAN: One day more...</p>

<p>MARIUS & COSETTE: Tomorrow I’ll know where I go..
And if at Choate, my life has meaning
EPONINE: One more day of the unknown..
MARIUS & COSETTE: Will someone else take my place?
EPONINE: One more day without them sharing...
MARIUS & COSETTE: I was born to be at Choate!
EPONINE: What a life I might have known..
MARIUS & COSETTE: Even if it is a safety!
EPONINE: If I hadn't bombed that test!</p>

<p>ENJOLRAS: One more day before the storm!
MARIUS: [Interjecting] Is the Hill School any good?
ENJOLRAS: What if I get into Hotchkiss?
MARIUS: [Interjecting] Should I join my brothers there?
ENJOLRAS: Though it is my backup school,
MARIUS: [Interjecting] Would I go there if I could?
ENJOLRAS: And my grandpa went to Groton?
ALL: The time is now!
The day is here!
VALJEAN: One day more!</p>

<p>i dreamed that on M10
i would not cryy
i dreamed that at least i’ll be wait listed
but the FedEx guy comes at nineee
and his voice is - ok can’t think of anything. i give up.</p>

<p>i’ll stop now.
i have too much time on my hands.</p>

3

<p>People live and go on
That last night of dreadful pain
But the sky will clear.</p>

4

<p>Oops, meter problem: change “will someone else take my place” to “will another take my place.” I was rushing.</p>

5

<p>Andover gorilla man
Exeter lion
Every school’s red or blue</p>

6

<p>P.S. Not all! Some are green, and I love how Thacher is green and orange.</p>

7

<p>I love this especially since I’m a big fan of Les Mis. I think Samantha Barks (Eponine) had the best voice.</p>

8

<p>Ughh groan, Not even an hour’s passed.</p>

9

<p>i should be doing something more fruitful than lurking on CC, but the temptation to refresh the page is interminable.</p>

10

<p>I know, right!? It’s like I’m addicted and I can’t let go…</p>

11

<p>ugh i can’t stop
no
i should be writing my history paper
perhaps it’s anxiety?</p>

12

<p>I have to do my math homework… but I can’t.</p>

<p>I’m watching Suits as I contemplate what I will do as I open that admission portal…
I can’t stop shaking; I think I’m developing ADHD or something.</p>

13

<p>I WILL NEVER LET YOU GO CC…and I intend on keeping my promise unlike some other ppl I know…</p>

14

<p>I have literally not been off this website for three hours. I’m slightly starting to feel like an internet stalker. But instead of stalking people, I stalk this entire website.</p>

<p>EDIT: Okay, I just posted this, and then I realized how weird that sounded. Disregard this post. Disclaimer: I don’t stalk anyone. I understand it’s hard to believe.</p>

15

<p>I actually forgot about M10 for 5 whole hours. It was glorious. But I’m back to worrying again. </p>

16

<p>How could you forget? Teach me your ways…</p>

17

<p>Youtube helps to forget!</p>

18

<p>Ah yes! Me too! I was at the barn all day riding and forgot for almost eight hours… it was actually amazing.</p>

19

<p>Tried already. Not working. Nothing’s working!!!</p>

<p>OH my gosh, @twinsmama - that was the BEST laugh EVER! That was great! THANKS!!! :slight_smile: My brain was “singing” right along with your lyrics - especially since we played the ENTIRE soundtrack to Les Mis the whole way up to and back from Loon Mountain for ski lessons every week!!! Speaking of which, we drive by Holderness School and Brewster Academy on our way. Gorgeous schools, both of them, especially sparkling in the snow :slight_smile: So if any of you end up at either of them, the campuses are STUNNING!!! Love watching the Holderness team practicing and playing at their ice arena every time we drive by :)</p>
